Ipamorelin CJC 1295 Therapy

Ipamorelin CJC-1295 can help individuals over the age of 30 to have more energy and stay in better shape as they age.

CJC-1295 is one of the most promising anti-aging peptides available today. If you haven’t spent much time reading about supplements and medications, however, you might not even know what CJC-1295 is, what it is used for, or about the CJC-1295 benefits and side effects that are associated with the medication.

In a nutshell, CJC-1295 can help individuals over the age of 30 to have more energy, a faster metabolism, and stay in better shape as they age. It’s not a hormone itself, so it is a relatively safe and low-risk option when all things are considered.

However, it requires a prescription and is delivered via an injection, so there are some important points to cover regarding the Ipamorelin CJC-1295.

Ipamorelin CJC 1295 Basics

Despite the code-like name, CJC-1295 is fairly easy to understand in terms of its function and purpose. It’s classified as a peptide, a small amino acid chain similar to (though smaller than) a protein. Peptides work in different ways, depending on what systems or areas of the body they target.

In the case of Ipamorelin CJC-1295, it’s a growth hormone secretagogue – that is it triggers the secretion of human growth hormone in your body via your pituitary gland.

Human growth hormone is essential for many systems in your body – and regulates far more than just growth. However, after about age 30, the rate of human growth hormone in the body starts to decrease, by as much as 15% per decade.

This is one of the natural processes responsible for decreased energy, increased difficulty losing or maintaining weight, decreased muscle mass, increased struggles to build new muscle, compromised healing and immune systems, and much more that are characteristic of “getting older”.

An anti-aging peptide-like Ipamorelin CJC-1295 is considered quite safe since it merely triggers your body’s production of your own natural growth hormone.

CJC-1295 is delivered via a subcutaneous (below the skin) injection, allowing it to be absorbed into the body slowly, and provide a consistent triggering effect on the pituitary gland. Essentially, Ipamorelin is the short-term trigger for the pituitary to release growth hormone, whereas the CJC-1295 is a much longer-term trigger (with raised hormone levels for as much as 6 to 10 days after administration).

How the level of growth hormone is regulated in the body?

Hormones in the body are regulated by either negative or positive feedback. Growth hormone is regulated by negative feedback in much the same way a thermostat regulates your home’s temperature. When the room gets too warm, the cooling system is started. Similarly, when the room is too cool, the heat comes on.

When growth hormone or IGF-1 levels get too high, somatostatin is released to decrease the release of growth hormone from the anterior pituitary. When growth hormone levels are too low, growth hormone-releasing hormone stimulates the production and release of growth hormone as does ghrelin, a hormone secreted by the stomach.

Can peptides mimic the role of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) and Ghrelin?

Researchers are focused on developing and testing these peptides as they provide a much safer alternative to injecting growth hormones into the body. Growth hormone secretagogues stimulate the release of growth hormone and therefore leave the growth hormone/IGF-1 axis intact as well as the natural negative feedback mechanisms used to control its release.

CJC 1295 / Ipamorelin Checklist

• CJC1295/Ipamorelin is the combination of two compounds, CJC1295, and Ipamorelin.
• CJC 1295 is prescribed as a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog that acts on the
  pituitary.
• Ipamorelin is prescribed as a selective growth hormone secretagogue that also acts on the pituitary.
• These two combinations act together to increase human growth hormone by acting on two different families of receptors.
• It is best prescribed to be taken before bed on an empty stomach.
• CJC 1295/Ipamorelin is normally prescribed at night to maximize the body’s natural cycle of growth hormone and stimulate the pituitary gland during REM sleep.

Why Combine CJC1295 & Ipamorelin?

The combination of CJC 1295 and Ipamorelin has been developed because the two can act together on the pituitary and hypothalamus to increase levels of growth hormone in your body. It is done in this way to maximize the amount of growth hormone being released into your body for therapeutic benefit while acting on two separate families of receptors.

Why Would I Want to Use CJC 1295/Ipamorelin?

Based on the literature, CJC1295/Ipamorelin has been shown to be effective in raising growth hormone/insulin growth factor – 1 level which helps to:

• increase bone density;
• strengthen the cardiovascular system;
• increase muscle mass;
• improve the ability to burn fat;
• increase sex drive;
• improve recovery and repair from injuries;
• regenerate nerve tissues;
• strengthen the immune system;
• improve cognition and memory.

Patient Benefits

Benefits for patients on CJC1295/Ipamorelin shown over the first six weeks of the protocol include improvements in:

What You Need to Know

CJC1295/Ipamorelin should not be used while pregnant or breastfeeding. Always tell your physician about all medications and supplements, especially corticosteroids and thyroid medications, that you are taking.

Common side effects of CJC1295/Ipamorelin include reactions at the injection site, such as pain, redness, or swelling along with flushing of the face; and less than 1 percent of patients report dizziness, headache or hyperactivity.
