Ghrelin-mimicking GH releaser for muscle, fat loss, and appetite

Also known as: Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-2

Metabolic Modulator
Growth Hormone & Musculoskeletal Support
Appetite & Metabolic Control

Overview

GHRP-2 mimics ghrelin - your hunger hormone - to stimulate growth hormone release from the pituitary. It produces a strong GH pulse that promotes muscle growth, fat burning, and recovery. Unlike some GHRPs, it also increases appetite, which can be beneficial for hard gainers or problematic for those trying to lose weight.
