Top 5 Questions About Tirzepatide
What does Tirzepatide do?
It lowers your blood sugar. It signals to the brain that you’re full. And it slows the digestion of your food through your stomach so you feel fuller longer.
Who should take Tirzepatide? Should you take it?
This is for people who struggle with overeating, and this is for people who’ve implemented an exercise or nutrition program with minimal impact.
How do you take Tirzepatide?
This is a once-per-week subcutaneous injection.
What is the dosing for Tirzepatide?
On weeks one through four, you’ll inject 2.5 milligrams once per week. On weeks five through eight, you will inject five milligrams once per week, weeks nine through 12. You’ll inject seven and a half milligrams once per week and weeks 13 on you will inject seven and a half to 10 milligrams once per week.
How is Tirzepatide different than Semaglutide?
Tirzepatide mimics two gut hormones: GLP-1 and GIP where Semaglutide only mimics GLP-1. These gut hormones help regulate the amount of insulin secreted after eating.
What does Tirzepatide cost?
The starter kit is $697 and will last for 8 weeks.

CJC-1295 is a 30 amino acid peptide hormone that has shown promising and amazing results as a Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH) analog. CJC-1295 stimulates HGH secretion and can provide a steady increase of HGH with minimal effect on cortisol and prolactin levels. This means increased protein synthesis thus promoting growth and fat loss simultaneously. Ipamorelin mimics ghrelin and binds to the ghrelin receptor (or GH secretagogue receptor, GHSR) inthe brain, thereby selectively stimulating the release of GH from the pituitary gland. This results in increased plasma GH levels, which would affect many biological processes. Unlike other GH releasing peptides, Ipamorelin only stimulates GH release in a manner very similar to that of growth hormone releasing hormone. This combination results in a great aid for sleep, energy, stamina and recovery benefits. Learn more…
BPC 157, composed of 15 amino acids, is a partial sequence of body protection compound (BPC) that is discovered in and isolated from human gastric juice. Experimentally it has been demonstrated to accelerate the healing of many different wounds, including tendons, muscles, nervous system and superior healing of damaged ligaments. Those who suffer from discomfort due to muscle sprains, tears and damage may benefit from treatment with this peptide. It can also help aid skin burns to heal at a faster rate and increase blood flow to damaged tissues. Learn more…
Sermorelin is a peptide analogue of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) which is used as a diagnostic agent to assess growth hormone (GH) secretion for the purpose of diagnosing growth hormone deficiency. It is a 29-amino acid polypeptide representing the 1–29 fragment from endogenous human GHRH, thought to be the shortest fully functional fragment of GHRH. Learn more…
Ibutamoren (MK-677) is a potent, long-acting, orally-active, selective, and non-peptide agonist of the ghrelin receptor and a growth hormone secretagogue, mimicking the growth hormone (GH)-stimulating action of the endogenous hormone ghrelin. It has been shown to increase the secretion of several hormones including GH and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and produces sustained increases in the plasma levels of these hormones without affecting cortisol levels.

IGF-1 LR3 is a polypeptide long-chain amino acid peptide hormone. Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF-1 Long-Arginine 3), an 83 amino acid analog of IGF-1, is a highly anabolic hormone released primarily in the liver with the stimulus of growth hormone (HGH). IGF-1 LR3 plays an important role in cell proliferation, cell-to-cell communication and cell division.IGF-1 LR3 is a derivative of IGF-1. Due to its structural adjustment, IGF-1 LR3 has a much longer half-life and results may persist in the bloodstream for up to 120 times longer. Learn more…
Tirzepatide is a once-weekly GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptor and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist. Tirzepatide is a single novel molecule that activates the body’s receptors for GIP and GLP-1, which are natural incretin hormones. GIP is a hormone that may complement the effects of GLP-1 receptor agonism. GIP has been shown to decrease food intake while blunting the metabolic adaptive responses that usually occur with calorie restriction resulting in weight reductions, and when combined with GLP-1 receptor agonism, may result in greater effects on markers of metabolic dysregulation such as body weight, glucose and lipids.
