- Growth Hormone Secretagogues (e.g., MK 677, CJC-1295/Ipamorelin)
- B3 (NAD+), B2 (FAD), B1 (TPP)
- 40–45 minutes
- NAD+ required for mitochondrial ATP synthesis to support anabolic signaling; FAD supports electron transport chain function during heightened metabolic demand
- Highest synergy potential. GH receptor activation increases cellular energy demand by 25–40%; cofactor pre-saturation critical for sustained effect
- Cognitive/Neurotropic Peptides (e.g., Dihexa, Cerebrolysin, P21)
- B6 (P5P), B12 (methylcobalamin), B9 (methylfolate)
- 30–40 minutes
- P5P required for neurotransmitter synthesis (dopamine, serotonin, GABA); methylation cycle supports acetylcholine production and synaptic plasticity
- Essential for cognitive peptides. Without methylation support, neurotrophic effects plateau at 60–70% potential; timing maximizes receptor density upregulation
- Immune/Thymic Peptides (e.g., Thymalin)
- B6 (P5P), B12, B9, B2
- 35–45 minutes
- Immune cell proliferation requires folate and B12 for DNA synthesis; B6 supports cytokine signaling; B2 supports antioxidant enzyme function (glutathione reductase)
- Moderate-to-high synergy. Thymic peptides stimulate T-cell maturation; methylation and antioxidant pathways must be saturated to prevent oxidative stress during immune upregulation
- Metabolic/Fat Loss Peptides (e.g., Tesofensine, GLP-1 analogs)
- B3 (NAD+), B5 (CoA), B2 (FAD)
- 40–50 minutes
- NAD+ drives lipolysis and beta-oxidation; pantothenic acid (B5) forms coenzyme A, required for fatty acid metabolism; FAD supports mitochondrial fat oxidation
- High synergy. Fat mobilization peptides increase mitochondrial workload; without cofactor saturation, released fatty acids cannot be oxidized efficiently, reducing net fat loss by 20–30%
- Tissue Repair Peptides (e.g., BPC-157, TB-500)
- B6 (P5P), B12, B9, B1
- Collagen synthesis requires B6; methylation cycle supports fibroblast proliferation; thiamine supports cellular energy during repair processes
- Moderate synergy. Repair peptides benefit from methylation support but show less dramatic cofactor dependency than GH or cognitive peptides; timing still improves healing velocity by 15–20%
