AOD-9604 is a laboratory-developed peptide fragment derived from a specific portion of human growth hormone (amino acids 176–191). It was designed to study pathways involved in fat metabolism without activating the full range of growth hormone effects.
🔥 1. Fat Metabolism Support
AOD-9604 is studied for its role in:
- Supporting lipolysis (fat breakdown)
- Potentially reducing new fat accumulation
- Assisting with stubborn fat areas when combined with training & nutrition
It does not act like traditional stimulants.
🧬 2. Body Composition Support
Often included in wellness stacks aimed at:
- Supporting leaner appearance
- Complementing resistance training programs
- Helping maintain muscle while focusing on fat metabolism
🩺 3. Minimal Impact on Blood Sugar
Unlike full HGH, AOD-9604 has been researched for:
- Not significantly affecting insulin levels
- Not raising blood glucose the way growth hormone can
(This is one reason it gained interest in metabolic research.)
💉 4. Stack Compatibility
Commonly paired in research settings with:
- CJC-1295
- Tesamorelin
- MOTS-c
- L-Carnitine
(Always consult a qualified professional before starting anything new.)
🚫 What AOD Is Not
- Not a growth hormone replacement
- Not a muscle-building peptide
- Not a magic fat-loss shortcut
- Not a stimulant
It works best in synergy with
:✔️ Consistent training
✔️ Proper nutrition
✔️ Hydration
✔️ Sleep
