Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide
GHRP-2 is a synthetic hexapeptide that acts as a ghrelin receptor agonist to potently stimulate the release of growth hormone from the pituitary.

Binds to the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR-1a) in the hypothalamus and pituitary, triggering G-protein–coupled signaling that increases pulsatile GH secretion.
Benefits:
- Enhanced pulsatile growth hormone release
- Improved lean muscle mass
- Accelerated fat metabolism
- Increased appetite (via ghrelin receptor activation)
Side Effects:
- Transient increase in cortisol and prolactin
- Mild water retention
- Increased hunger
- Possible tingling or numbness at injection site
