Fat Loss t½ —

5-Amino-1MQ

5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule inhibitor of NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase), an enzyme overexpressed in fat tissue that slows metabolism. By inhibiting NNMT it boosts cellular NAD+ availability and metabolic rate, promoting fat loss - particularly visceral fat - while preserving lean mass. Unlike most peptides it is taken orally.

AOD-9604

AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of human growth hormone (hGH residues 177-191) that stimulates fat breakdown without affecting blood sugar or promoting growth. It was developed as an anti-obesity drug and retains the lipolytic activity of hGH without its diabetogenic effects. It is generally very well tolerated.

BPC-157

BPC-157 is a synthetic pentadecapeptide derived from a protective protein found in human gastric juice. It is widely used for its regenerative effects on tendons, ligaments, muscle, and the gastrointestinal tract. It also exhibits systemic anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective properties.

CJC-1295 (no DAC)

CJC-1295 without DAC (also called Mod GRF 1-29) is a modified GHRH analog that stimulates pulsatile growth hormone release from the pituitary. Without the Drug Affinity Complex it has a short half-life, preserving natural GH pulsatility. It is most commonly stacked with Ipamorelin.

Cerebrolysin

Cerebrolysin is a porcine brain-derived peptide preparation with neurotrophic activity similar to endogenous neurotrophic factors. It is approved in numerous countries for stroke, traumatic brain injury, and dementia. It requires intramuscular or intravenous administration and is dosed by volume rather than mass.

Longevity t½ 2h

Epitalon

Epitalon (Epithalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide based on the natural pineal peptide epithalamin. It activates telomerase and has demonstrated life-extension and circadian-normalizing effects in animal studies. It is typically used in short cycles once or twice per year rather than continuously.

Healing & Recovery t½ 1h

GHK-Cu

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide with potent regenerative and anti-aging effects. It stimulates collagen production, wound healing, and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions. Endogenous levels decline significantly with age.

Growth Hormone Secretagogue t½ 2h

Ipamorelin

Ipamorelin is a highly selective growth hormone secretagogue and ghrelin mimetic that stimulates GH release without significantly raising cortisol or prolactin. It is considered one of the cleanest GHRPs with minimal side effects. Frequently combined with CJC-1295 (no DAC) for synergy.

Immune t½ 1h

LL-37

LL-37 is the only human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide, with broad-spectrum activity against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and biofilms. It also modulates innate and adaptive immunity and supports wound healing. It is used experimentally for chronic infections and immune dysregulation.

GLP-1 / Weight Loss t½ 13h

Liraglutide

Liraglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes (Victoza) and weight management (Saxenda). Unlike weekly GLP-1 agents it requires daily injection due to its shorter half-life. Average weight loss is more modest (around 5-8% of body weight) than newer agents.

Longevity t½ 1h

MOTS-c

MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the mitochondrial genome that regulates metabolic homeostasis. It enhances insulin sensitivity, promotes fat oxidation, and has shown exercise-mimetic and lifespan-extending effects in animal studies. Endogenous levels decline with age.

Sexual Health t½ 1.5h

Melanotan II

Melanotan II is a synthetic analog of alpha-MSH that stimulates melanogenesis, producing a tan with minimal UV exposure. It also has pro-sexual effects (it is the parent compound of PT-141) and mild appetite-suppressant properties. It is typically run with a loading phase followed by lower maintenance dosing.

Longevity t½ 2h

NAD+

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a critical coenzyme in cellular energy metabolism, DNA repair, and sirtuin activation. Levels decline substantially with age, and replenishment is studied for longevity, energy, and neuroprotection. Injectable NAD+ bypasses the limited oral bioavailability of direct NAD+ supplementation.

Sexual Health t½ 2.7h

PT-141

PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is a melanocortin receptor agonist FDA-approved (Vyleesi) for hypoactive sexual desire disorder in premenopausal women. Unlike PDE5 inhibitors it acts centrally on the nervous system to increase sexual desire rather than on blood flow. It is effective in both men and women.

GLP-1 / Weight Loss t½ 6d

Retatrutide

Retatrutide is an investigational triple agonist targeting GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon receptors. Phase 2 trials showed unprecedented weight loss of up to roughly 24% of body weight at 48 weeks. It remains in clinical development and is not yet FDA-approved.

Longevity t½ 4h

SS-31

SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide that selectively binds cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane. It improves mitochondrial efficiency, reduces oxidative stress, and is being studied for heart failure, mitochondrial myopathies, and age-related functional decline.

Cognitive t½ 1h

Selank

Selank is a synthetic analog of the immunomodulatory tetrapeptide tuftsin with pronounced anxiolytic and nootropic properties. It reduces anxiety without sedation, tolerance, or dependence, making it an alternative to benzodiazepines. Developed in Russia and administered intranasally.

GLP-1 / Weight Loss t½ 165h

Semaglutide

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes (Ozempic) and chronic weight management (Wegovy). It reduces appetite, slows gastric emptying, and improves glycemic control. Clinical trials demonstrate average weight loss of around 15% of body weight at the 2.4mg dose.

Cognitive t½ 1h

Semax

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of the ACTH(4-10) fragment developed in Russia as a nootropic and neuroprotective agent. It enhances BDNF expression, improves focus and memory, and is used clinically for stroke recovery and cognitive fatigue. It is administered intranasally for CNS penetration.

Tesamorelin

Tesamorelin is a synthetic GHRH analog FDA-approved (Egrifta) for reduction of visceral adipose tissue in HIV-associated lipodystrophy. It is one of the most potent GH secretagogues available and strongly reduces visceral fat. It has also been studied for cognitive benefits in older adults.
