Peptides and High Protein Diet Synergy Timing Protocol: Comparison
Single-Pulse Injectable (GHRP-2, Hexarelin) Fasted, on waking 90 minutes post-injection Post-workout only 3–4 meals, 3–4 hours apart Maximizes GH pulse without insulin interference; requires discipline but produces highest peak GH elevation Sustained-Release O

- Single-Pulse Injectable (GHRP-2, Hexarelin)
- Fasted, on waking
- 90 minutes post-injection
- Post-workout only
- 3–4 meals, 3–4 hours apart
- Maximizes GH pulse without insulin interference; requires discipline but produces highest peak GH elevation
- Sustained-Release Oral (MK 677)
- Morning, fasted or fed
- Flexible throughout day
- Any meal, moderate amounts
- 3–4 meals, evenly spaced
- Simplest to implement; allows normal meal structure; lower peak GH but sustained elevation
- CJC/Ipamorelin Combination
- Before bed, fasted
- First meal 8–10 hours later (on waking)
- Breakfast and post-workout
- 3–4 meals, standard timing
- Aligns GH elevation with overnight fasting and growth hormone's natural circadian peak; anecdotally produces best body recomposition
- High-Frequency Low-Dose (multiple daily injections)
- 2–3x daily, pre-meal
- 60 minutes after each dose
- Minimal; protein-fat dominant
- 4–5 smaller meals
- Mimics natural pulsatile GH rhythm; logistically complex; not superior to single daily protocols in controlled studies
