Hexarelin (HEX) is a peptide that stimulates the release of growth hormone (GH). Hexarelin is a synthetic hexapeptide. It has GH-releasing properties. The GH secreted in larger amounts in the body have effects that help to increase bone mineral density, increase mitosis and meiosis, which further triggers up muscle mass, triglyceride hydrolysis, which helps losing fat, tissue strengthening and improved skin elasticity. It is medically used medically to treat GH deficiency. Structurally similar to GHRP-6, Hexarelin doesn’t boost appetite, as opposed to GHRP-6’s extreme appetite increase. It is due to its inability to drastically increase Ghrelin levels that are responsible for added hunger and quicker gastric emptying. Hexarelin is chemically structured as L-Histidyl-2-methyl-D-tryptophyl-L-alanyl-L-tryptophyl-D-phenylalanyl-L-lysinamide; {HIS}{D-2-ME-TRP}{ALA}{TRP}{d-PHE}{LYS}-NH2. Its molecular formula is C47-H58-N12-O6. Its appearance is as white powder. Hexarelin is subcutaneous injection that is growing in popularity as a performance enhancement drug. It is often used by athletes and jocks. Most athletes often use Hexarelin because it helps increasing strength, growing new muscle fibers, and increasing the size of already existing muscle fiber, neural protection, healing, and reducing fat. A dose of about 200mcg/day could help in healing injuries, burning a bit of fat and gain a bit of muscle. Hexarelin is also used by bodybuilders. The pituitary gland produces GH in the brain, in children this hormone helps them to grow and in adults it helps to maintain muscle and burn fat. But, it has been found that fat gets deposited deep in the belly. This fat is known as visceral fat and is not easily removed. However, injections of high doses of GH can help to get rid of this type of fat. A Study on Hexarelin carried out by doctors showed that daily doses of 4 or 6 mg injections could help reduce visceral fat. Some of side effects which were noticed when GH was injected were – bone pain, muscle pain, water retention, and increased risk of diabetes. However, the product has more benefits then side effects. Hexarelin’s chemical Tesamorelin has been tested in HIV negative people to improve sleep and memory. It also helps in healing of fractures. Hexarelin is currently available from several research companies.
