AOD9604

AOD9604 or “Advanced Obesity Drug” is a peptide fragment of HGH.  AOD is a 15 amino acid peptide chain replicated from the last 15 amino acids in Human Growth Hormone that are responsible for the fat burning and metabolism effects.   This peptide promotes weight loss and metabolism by stimulating the body to burn and process stored body fat as well as inhibits the development of new fat cells.   AOD9604 also has shown to also improve the body’s ability to recover and repair muscles and soft tissue from exercise and injury.   This makes it a great peptide for patients who are trying to lose weight and add lean muscle with exercise.  

Two Primary Methods of
Regulating Fat Burning

1.  Stimulates release of stored body fat and increases fat metabolism.  Enhances lipolytic activity by increasing Beta 3 receptor expression in fat cells.   Beta 3 receptors are the major lipolytic receptor found in fat cells that increase energy expenditure and fat oxidation (burning).

2.  Prevents formation of new fat cells.  Inhibits lipogenesis (formation of new fat cells) in adipocytes by down regulating fatty acid synthase and indirectly reducing sensitivity of fat cells (adipocytes) to insulin.

AOD9604 is safe to use

The U.S. Food & Drug Administration recently assigned Human GRAS status to AOD 9604, meaning it is listed under the Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) program. This is a designation that identifies any food additive as safe when used as intended, per the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.

This peptide is extremely safe and there are no known health risks associated with AOD 9604.
