GHRP-6 is basically a mass gainer. Appetite went through the roof - could eat non-stop. GH release is good but if you want to lose fat, this is the wrong peptide. Great for bulking phases.
Cheapest GHRP available and it works. Strong GH release, insane hunger. Used it during a winter bulk and gained 12 lbs. For the price, can't beat it. Not for cutting though.
