Protocol
| Peptide | Dose | Frequency | Timing | Role |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ipamorelin | 200-300mcg | 2-3x daily | Morning, post-workout, and before bed | GHRP — stimulates clean GH pulse via ghrelin receptor |
| CJC-1295 | 100-200mcg (no DAC) or 2mg (with DAC) | 2-3x daily (no DAC) or 2x/week (with DAC) | Same timing as ipamorelin | GHRH analog — amplifies and extends GH release |
Notes
Take on empty stomach (no food 2 hours before, 30 min after). The pre-bed dose is most important — aligns with natural GH pulse during deep sleep. CJC-1295 with DAC is more convenient (less frequent dosing) but some prefer without DAC for more natural pulsing. Avoid taking with carbs or fats as they blunt GH release.
