@Neil-McCauley I see, from what I've read Tesamorelin is generally considered superior for visceral fat compared to CJC-1295. CJC-1295 can help with fat loss, but it doesn’t have the same targeted data for visceral fat reduction that Tesamorelin does. But if the visceral fat difference is truly negligible, the price difference is not.
Monthly Cost Comparison (uther prices):
CJC-1295 no DAC (100mg for $140)
Dose: 300–500 mcg per day (Mon–Fri)
Monthly cost: $8 – $14 per month
Tesamorelin (200mg for $270)
Dose: 1–2 mg per day (daily)
Monthly cost: $40 – $81 per month
Mind sharing which dosing protocols you've tried with tesa?
The same reason why Tesa burns visceral fat is the same reason why CJC does - GHRH --> GH --> IGF-1
The reason why Tesa is a thing is entirely because it was modified slightly so they could patent and sell it for profit, as they couldn't do that with CJC-1295
There is nothing special or unique about Tesamorelin that makes it more effective than CJC-1295 at burning visceral fat. That is just a talking point that's been spread around online that is very surface level - but once you dig into the research and study the mechanisms behind how the compounds work, you'll see they work on almost an identical level.
I research Tesa at 1mg with Ipamorelin at 150mcg, once per day in the morning fasted first thing a.m. I usually run that for 40 days straight then take 10 days off. Or I will run CJC-1295 with Ipamorelin 150/150 for 33 days, Tesa/Ipa 1mg/150mcg for 10 days, then 10 days off, repeat.
My stack right now is CJC/IPA 150/150 for 33 days, followed by Ipa solo 150 for 13 days, then 10 days off.
