CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin

The classic growth-hormone stack (CJC-1295 no-DAC + Ipamorelin). CJC-1295 signals your pituitary to release more of your own growth hormone, and Ipamorelin pushes the same pulse from a second angle, together they raise your natural GH far more than either alone. Better sleep, faster recovery, leaner body, better skin.

Your starting dose
10units
500 mcg CJC + 500 mcg Ipamorelin

PM before bed, fasted, 60 min after your last meal, under the skin

10 units 050100 1 mL

Your insulin syringe is marked 0 to 100. That whole line is 1 mL. Draw to the 10 mark.

The protocolHow to mix it, how much to draw, and how long a vial lasts.
The numbers
Vial5 mg CJC-1295 + 5 mg Ipamorelin (blended in one vial)
Mix with1 mL BAC water → makes 10 units = 500 mcg of each
Start10 units (500 mcg CJC + 500 mcg Ipamorelin), nightly
Full dose20 units (1000 mcg + 1000 mcg / 1 mg each), nightly
WhenPM before bed, fasted, 60 min after your last meal, under the skin
Cycle12 to 16 weeks on / 2 to 4 weeks off
Units made simple: your insulin syringe is marked 0 to 100. That whole line = 1 mL. Just draw to the 10 mark, that's your starting dose (500 mcg of each). Want the full dose? Draw to 20. No math.
How long one bottle lasts
At 10u/night~10 nights per vial
At 15u/night~6 to 7 nights per vial
At 20u/night~5 nights per vial
One vial = 100 units total (1 mL). Because it's dosed every night, plan on roughly 8 to 12 vials for a full 12 to 16 week cycle depending on your dose.

What it doesWhat you get, how it does it, and what to know before you run it.
What it does
Deeper sleepGH pulses hardest in deep sleep, restoring the pulse deepens it. Almost always the first thing people feel, within a week or two.
RecoveryFaster tissue repair, joints, connective tissue, workout recovery. The GH/IGF-1 repair system, turned back up.
Leaner bodyGH → IGF-1 drives fat mobilization; with Ipamorelin lifting the brake, the pulse is bigger, leaner body composition over a full cycle.
Lean muscleIGF-1 drives protein synthesis and Ipamorelin adds a muscle-preserving effect, build and hold muscle without steroids or HGH.
Skin and anti-agingThe GH→IGF-1 collagen halo, better skin quality and firmness.
Your own GHRestores an age-25 GH rhythm using your own pituitary, no shutdown, insulin sensitivity intact, the opposite of injecting HGH.
How it works

Two peptides, two different switches in the same gland. CJC-1295 is a GHRH analog, it's the "release more GH" signal, engineered to resist the enzyme (DPP-4) that would normally break it down fast. Ipamorelin hits a separate receptor (the ghrelin receptor) and lifts the brakes on GH, cleanly, without spiking hunger, cortisol, or prolactin. Pulling both levers at once gives you a bigger, more natural GH pulse than either could alone. And because it's your own growth hormone on your body's nightly rhythm, not injected HGH, it keeps your insulin sensitivity intact.

What to know before you run it
Two receptors, one pulse. CJC and Ipamorelin hit two different receptors on the same pituitary cell, one pushes the gas, the other lifts the brake. That's why together they release far more GH than either alone (multiplicative, not just additive).
No-DAC = a clean nightly pulse. This blend uses the no-DAC version, dosed nightly to give a short, natural GH pulse that mimics your body's own rhythm, instead of a flat, constant elevation.
Ipamorelin is the "clean" GHRP. It fires GH without the hunger, cortisol, or prolactin spike of older GH peptides, exactly why it's the one paired with CJC.
Why before bed, fasted. Your natural GH surge fires ~60 to 90 min after you fall asleep, so PM dosing lands right on that wave. And insulin blunts the pulse, a fasted, empty stomach is what makes it land.
Dose fasted, right before bed, it rides your natural overnight GH wave, which is when most of your GH is released anyway.
These are secretagogues (they tell your body to make GH), not HGH, that's the whole point. Injected HGH kills your natural pulse and worsens insulin sensitivity; this doesn't.
Prime the tissue with BPC-157 first, it raises GH-receptor expression so the signal lands harder.
Give it time: deeper sleep shows up first (days to ~2 weeks); body-composition changes build over months. Don't chase it with a bigger dose, cycle it instead.

How to run itMixing, injecting, what to eat, and what to take alongside it.
Mixing and injecting
Mix: add the 1 mL of BAC water slowly down the side of the vial. Swirl gently, never shake.
Store: in the fridge after mixing. Keep it cold, keep it out of light.
Inject: into belly fat, ~2 inches from your belly button. Pinch, go straight in, push slow. Rotate the spot each night, fresh pin every time.
First time injecting? → Read Injection Basics (60 seconds, it barely hurts).
Your diet
Empty stomachNo food within ~2 hrs of your shot, carbs and a spike of insulin blunt the GH pulse.
ProteinEat enough protein through the day so the extra GH has material to build with.
OtherwiseNo special diet needed, this stack works on your natural nightly rhythm, so the main rule is just: dose fasted, before bed.
Take these alongside it
GH cofactorsArginine 2 to 3 g and glutamine 10 g taken with your night dose can amplify the pulse.
MineralsZinc 30 to 50 mg and magnesium glycinate 400 to 500 mg, support GH output and deepen sleep.
BaseVitamin D3 5 to 10k IU and K2.
Prime the tissueBPC-157 raises GH-receptor expression and IGF-1 uptake, so your body responds better to the signal.
