THE GH RELEASER

Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-2

GHRP-2 mimics ghrelin, your hunger hormone, to stimulate growth hormone release from the pituitary. It produces a strong GH pulse that promotes muscle growth, fat burning, and recovery. Unlike some GHRPs, it also increases appetite, which can be beneficial for hard gainers or problematic for those trying to lose weight.
