1. Component Analysis
This protocol is a classic “foundational” stack. It targets the three main pillars of physiological restoration: Growth Hormone release, Sleep architecture, and Circadian/Cellular aging.
- CJC-1295 No DAC + Ipamorelin (Blend):
- Role: This is a synergistic Growth Hormone Secretagogue stack.
- CJC-1295 No DAC acts as a GHRH (Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone) analog, amplifying the signal to the pituitary to release GH. “No DAC” means it mimics natural pulsatile release rather than a constant bleed.
- Ipamorelin acts as a Ghrelin mimetic (Growth Hormone Secretagogue Receptor agonist), suppressing somatostatin (the “brake” on GH) and stimulating release without significantly spiking cortisol or hunger.
- Goal: Improve recovery, fat loss, skin quality, and deep sleep.
- Role: This is a synergistic Growth Hormone Secretagogue stack.
- DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide):
- Role: Neuromodulation and Stress Regulation.
- It is a neuropeptide that specifically promotes “Delta” (slow-wave) deep sleep.
- Beyond sleep, it is often used to reset the HPA (Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal) axis, helping to lower baseline cortisol levels and reduce the physiological response to stress.
- Role: Neuromodulation and Stress Regulation.
- Epitalon (Epithalon):
- Role: Circadian Reset and Telomere Support.
- A synthetic peptide derived from the pineal gland. Its primary function is to normalize melatonin production and reset the body’s circadian rhythm.
- It is also famous in longevity circles for its potential to increase telomerase activity (protecting DNA ends) and act as a potent antioxidant.
- Role: Circadian Reset and Telomere Support.
2. Protocol Breakdown
Core Bundle
- Target: The “burnt out” executive or the aging patient who needs a total system reboot.
- The Logic: This is a “Pulsatile Restoration” stack.
- Instead of injecting exogenous Growth Hormone (which shuts down natural production), the CJC/Ipamorelin stimulates the body’s own production.
- DSIP ensures the patient gets the deep sleep required for that GH to actually work (since GH is released during deep sleep).
- Epitalon acts as the “master clock” reset to align hormonal rhythms.
