— The science
How ASCEND Blend works, and what the research shows.
— How it works
CJC-1295 and tesamorelin copy the brain's growth-hormone-releasing signal, and ipamorelin copies the hunger hormone's signal, so the pituitary gland releases a larger nighttime pulse of growth hormone.
IGF-1 LR3 is a long-acting form of the growth factor that growth hormone acts through, studied for muscle and tissue growth.
— Clinical evidence
No clinical trial has studied this exact combination.
The evidence is for each peptide on its own, and your physician weighs that when deciding whether the blend fits you.
