Common GHRPs include: Alexamorelin GHRP-1 GHRP-2 GHRP-3 GHRP-4 GHRP-5 GHRP-6 Hexarelin Potential benefits include: Increased growth hormone release Higher IGF-1 levels Improved recovery Increased appetite (especially GHRP-6) In research conducted on healthy adults, GHRP-2 infusion caused significant increases in serum growth hormone levels and stimulated food intake, with participants eating about 35 percent to 36 percent more calories compared with saline, demonstrating both increased GH secretion and appetite stimulation
