What is AOD-9604?
AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of human growth hormone (HGH fragment 177-191) specifically designed for fat metabolism. It stimulates lipolysis and inhibits lipogenesis without affecting blood sugar or tissue growth, making it a targeted fat-loss peptide without typical GH side effects.
Key Benefits & Mechanisms
Stimulates fat breakdown (lipolysis)
Inhibits fat formation (lipogenesis)
No effect on blood sugar or growth
Does not cause insulin resistance
Promotes cartilage repair
No antibody formation reported
Mimics natural GH fat-burning mechanism
Research Summary
AOD-9604 completed Phase II clinical trials for obesity. TGA-approved in Australia as a food supplement. Demonstrated significant fat reduction without GH-related side effects. Also shows promise for osteoarthritis and cartilage repair.
