Research Peptide

Also known as: Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide 6

What is GHRP-6?

GHRP-6 is one of the original growth hormone releasing peptides, known for strong GH release and significant appetite stimulation.

How It Works

GHRP-6 activates ghrelin receptors, stimulating growth hormone release from the pituitary. It has a stronger effect on appetite than GHRP-2.
