AOD-9604 & CJC-1295 & Ipamorelin (Stack) vs Humanin
A detailed comparison to help you understand the differences and choose the right peptide for your research goals.
AOD-9604 & CJC-1295 & Ipamorelin (Stack)
A targeted fat loss stack combining AOD-9604 (the fat-burning fragment of HGH) with CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin for comprehensive body recomposition. This blend addresses fat loss directly while supporting lean mass through GH optimization.

| Aspect | AOD-9604 & CJC-1295 & Ipamorelin (Stack) | Humanin |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | AOD-9604 stimulates lipolysis and inhibits lipogenesis without affecting IGF-1 or blood glucose. CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin provide sustained and pulsatile GH release to support metabolism and lean tissue. The combination targets fat loss through multiple mechanisms while preserving muscle. | Binds to IGFBP-3 and BAX, inhibiting apoptosis. Activates STAT3 signaling and enhances cellular survival under stress. Protects mitochondrial function and reduces oxidative stress. |
| Typical Dosage | Typical protocol: AOD-9604 200-400mcg, CJC-1295 100-200mcg, Ipamorelin 100-200mcg daily. Usually administered in the morning fasted or before exercise. | Research protocols vary widely. Studies have used doses from micrograms to milligrams depending on the analog and route. HNG (S14G-Humanin) is a more potent analog. |
| Administration | Subcutaneous injection. Best administered fasted to maximize fat-burning effects. Can be taken as a pre-mixed blend or separate injections. Cycles typically run 8-16 weeks. | Subcutaneous or intraperitoneal injection in research. Various analogs exist with different potencies and stabilities. |
| Side Effects | Mild injection site reactions, headache, nausea. Generally well-tolerated as AOD-9604 lacks many HGH side effects. | Limited human data. Generally well-tolerated in animal studies. May affect glucose metabolism. |
