AOD 9604 5mg

What it is:

• It's not a replacement for HGH therapy, as it doesn't have the same broad range of effects. 

• AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide that mimics a specific fragment of HGH (residues 176-191), known for its lipolytic (fat-burning) activity. 
• It's designed to stimulate fat breakdown (lipolysis) and inhibit fat storage (lipogenesis). 

How it works:

• AOD-9604 directly targets fat cells, increasing the breakdown of stored fat. 

• It may also have an impact on metabolism, potentially improving insulin sensitivity and overall fat metabolism. 

• While it's not directly linked to muscle growth like some other peptides, it can contribute to improved body composition by reducing fat mass. 

Potential benefits:

  Unlike traditional HGH therapy, AOD-9604 is designed to not significantly raise IGF-1 levels, potentially reducing the risk of some side effects. 

• Potential cartilage support:
