Ibutamoren (also known as ibutamoren mesylate or MK-677), promotes the secretion of the growth hormone (GH) and increases insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)
Ibutamoren increases levels, by mimicking the action of the hormone ghrelin , and binding to one of the ghrelin receptors in the brain ). Activated ghrelin receptors stimulates growth hormone release from the brain.
Benefits of increased GH and IGF-1 include:
. Increased bone turnover and eventually bone density
. Improved sleep quality and REM (rapid eye movement) sleep duration.
. Reduced Muscle Wasting
. Increased muscle mass
. Reduced fat mass
. Possible healing of tendons, joints and ligaments
Also included in the product is
Alpha-GPC
Alpha-GPC is a cholinergic compound that is used for its cognitive-promoting properties, and to enhance power output in athletes. It appears to also support cellular membranes, and may aid in preventing cognitive decline.
Oral supplementation of alpha-GPC is of interest for nootropic purposes, as it appears to have cognitive-enhancing properties.
Athletes are at times interested in alpha-GPC due to its ability to enhance growth hormone production and to also enhance power output.
And also
Huperzine-A
Huperzine-A is a cognitive enhancer that inhibits an enzyme that degrades the learning neurotransmitter, acetylcholine; and so due to this, a relative increase occurs.
