When it comes to restoring hormone balance, supporting fertility, or aiding recovery after anabolic steroid use, two compounds are frequently compared: Gonadorelin and HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin). Both play essential roles in regulating the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis, yet they operate at different points along the pathway. Gonadorelin is a synthetic version of GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone), the […]

The MOTS-c peptide is a newly discovered mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) that has quickly become one of the most intriguing topics in both longevity science and sports performance. Encoded by mitochondrial DNA, MOTS-c acts as a cellular messenger that helps regulate energy metabolism, glucose utilization, and stress adaptation. As noted by Lee, Cell Metabolism, MOTS-c improves insulin […]

Muscle growth has natural limits set by genetics, training, and nutrition. One of the key biological regulators behind these limits is myostatin, a protein that acts as a “brake” on skeletal muscle development. While this mechanism prevents uncontrolled growth, it also restricts the ability to achieve extreme hypertrophy. Enter follistatin — a naturally occurring protein that […]

Kisspeptin is a naturally occurring neuropeptide that plays a central role in the regulation of the female reproductive system. Acting as a key activator of the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis, Kisspeptin stimulates the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which in turn triggers the production of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). These hormones are responsible for […]
