Description
Tesamorelin is a synthetic peptide made up of 44 amino acids that mimics the action of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). It is primarily used to reduce visceral adipose tissue (VAT)—the deep, dangerous abdominal fat that surrounds internal organs—especially in patients with HIV-associated lipodystrophy. Unlike direct growth hormone injections, tesamorelin works by signaling your pituitary gland to release its own endogenous growth hormone in a natural, pulsatile manner. This helps maintain the body’s natural hormone feedback loops.
Key Benefits & Uses
• Targeted Fat Loss: Specifically reduces visceral fat rather than just general weight. Clinical trials have shown up to an 18% reduction in trunk fat over 26 weeks.
• Body Recomposition: Helps preserve or slightly increase lean muscle mass while the body burns fat.
• Metabolic Health: Can improve lipid profiles (cholesterol and triglycerides) and may reduce liver fat in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
• Cognitive Support: Emerging research suggests it may improve executive function and verbal memory in older adults.
