The science

How AOD-9604 works, and what the research shows.

How it works

AOD-9604 is a synthetic fragment (amino acids 177-191) of human growth hormone.

It targets fat metabolism specifically without the tissue-growth or blood-sugar effects of full HGH.

Stimulates lipolysis and inhibits lipogenesis.
