GHRP-6

How it works

Mimics ghrelin, the hunger hormone, at its pituitary receptor to release growth hormone. Made 15 years before ghrelin was found.

What it's made of

6 amino acids, two in “mirror” form (D). Cyril Bowers published it in 1984: it released growth hormone fifteen years before the natural hormone it mimics, ghrelin, was discovered.

What it's for

Prescribed for

Nothing.

Sold as

Growth hormone and a fierce hunger to gain mass.
