- Anabolic/Recovery
- MK-677 (10mg daily)
- 300mg
- $20 MK-677 + $25 Thymalin (amortised quarterly) + $15 bacteriostatic supplies = $60
- GH secretagogue (24hr half-life) + immune modulation
- Best all-around value for researchers prioritising lean mass and recovery—proven endocrine response at one-third the cost of GLP-1 protocols
- Cognitive/Neuroprotection
- Dihexa (10mg daily)
- $25 Dihexa + $50 Cerebrolysin (every 72hr) + $10 supplies = $85
- HGF upregulation (synaptogenesis) + neurotrophic factor elevation
- Ideal for cognitive research—mechanism targets structural plasticity, not neurotransmitter flux, making it complementary to racetams
- Metabolic/Body Composition
- MK-677 (15mg every 48hr) + KPV
- 225mg MK-677 + 50mg KPV
- $30 MK-677 + $40 KPV + $15 supplies = $85
- GH secretagogue + anti-inflammatory peptide (gut-brain axis modulation)
- Cost-effective metabolic stack—KPV addresses GI inflammation that can limit nutrient partitioning, synergising with MK-677's anabolic signalling
- Immune/Longevity
- Thymalin (10-day course quarterly) + Cartalax
- 100mg Thymalin + 60mg Cartalax
- $50 Thymalin + $35 Cartalax (amortised) + $10 supplies = $95
- Thymic peptide restoration + telomere-protective bioregulator
- Best for researchers over 35 prioritising immune function and cellular senescence—mechanisms target age-related decline, not acute performance
