GHRP-6

Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6

GHRP-6 is a synthetic hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue that strongly stimulates GH release through ghrelin receptor activation. It is particularly notable for significantly increasing appetite via ghrelin pathway activation — useful in research contexts for body composition changes, catabolic state reversal, and GH deficiency studies. Not FDA-approved for therapeutic use. PeptIQ does not sell peptides or list vendors.
