Lipolysis
Lipolysis is the metabolic breakdown of triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol, releasing stored fat for energy use.
Detailed Explanation
Lipolysis is stimulated by β-adrenergic receptor activation (especially β3) and growth hormone. AOD-9604 and HGH Fragment 176-191 activate β3-adrenergic lipolysis without the growth-promoting effects of full HGH. Tesamorelin promotes lipolysis in visceral adipose tissue via GH/IGF-1 axis elevation. Understanding lipolysis is key to weight loss peptide research.
