Mechanism of Action

Human growth hormone fragment, aka HGH-FRAG, has lipolytic and hypoglycemic properties. It Increases the formation of beta-3 adrenergic receptors in fatty tissues. The receptors then increase the utilization and mobilization of fats. Hypoglycemic attributes are found in HGH-FRAG due to the presence of the C-terminal. It also has possible effects on cartilage Regeneration and growth alongside hyaluronic acid.
