AOD-9604 — 5 mg

AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide fragment of human growth hormone (GH), specifically modified to exclude growth-promoting activity while retaining metabolic and fat-regulating effects. It is studied for its role in fat metabolism, weight management, and energy balance.

Benefits

• Fat metabolism — studied for promoting breakdown of stored fat (lipolysis).
• Weight management — explored for reducing body fat in obesity research.
• Cartilage and joint support — interest in tissue repair and inflammation balance.
• Metabolic health — studied for blood sugar and lipid regulation.
• Non-growth promoting — modified to avoid stimulating muscle or bone growth.

What researchers look at

• Fragment of GH (177–191 sequence) with selective metabolic activity.
• Lipolytic effects in animal and human obesity studies.
• Non-mitogenic: does not stimulate IGF-1 or growth pathways.
• Exploration in cartilage repair and osteoarthritis research.
