What is Dihexa?

Dihexa is a highly potent cognitive-enhancing peptide derived from angiotensin IV with reported effects millions of times stronger than BDNF.

How It Works

Dihexa activates hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) pathways, promoting synaptogenesis and potentially enhancing memory and cognition.

Important: This information is for research purposes only. Always consult with a qualified healthcare provider before using any peptide. Never use peptides without proper medical supervision.

Sourcing & Quality

Quality varies significantly between peptide sources. When sourcing Dihexa, consider:

  • Third-party testing (HPLC, Mass Spectrometry)
  • Certificate of Analysis (CoA) availability
  • Purity levels (>98% recommended)
  • Beware of LPS (endotoxin) contamination

CalcPep does not sell peptides or recommend specific vendors. Always verify product quality through independent testing.
