00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,667
GHRP-2 is a growth hormone secretagogue: researchers use it to investigate hormone release and related

physiology. A larger hormone response does not automatically predict better health.

00:00:11,750 --> 00:00:17,625
In a small randomized, double-blind experiment, seven healthy men received GHRP-2 or saline.

4
00:00:17,625 --> 00:00:22,708
Investigators measured growth hormone and food intake during a laboratory meal.

5
00:00:22,708 --> 00:00:26,958
The GHRP-2 condition increased food intake and growth hormone.

These short-term results concern appetite and endocrine responses, rather than recovery or muscle

performance.

00:00:36,333 --> 00:00:41,000
The limited sample and acute design leave longer-term effects unresolved.

00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:46,458
Clinical benefits and safety cannot be ranked from a hormone peak alone.
