# CJC-1295 / GHRP-6 Blend

> This blend pairs CJC-1295 with GHRP-6, historically one of the most recognizable secretagogue combinations given GHRP-6's pronounced hypothalamic appetite-stimulating effect. It has a long track record in informal bodybuilding-adjacent research communities, generally discussed in the context of protocols aiming for a caloric surplus alongside GH stimulation. Both individual peptides have an extensive research history, though the fixed combination has not been formally studied. It is positioned as more suited to bulking-oriented research than lean recomposition. It is not approved for human medical use.

- URL: https://www.lifeconverted.com/peptides/cjc1295-ghrp6-blend
- Also known as: Bulking GH Blend
- Primary category: GH Blends
- Effectiveness rank: #999 in Growth Hormone Peptides; #999 in GH Releasing Hormones; #7 in GH Blends
- Evidence level: Well studied
- Route: Subcutaneous (Injected subcutaneously into the abdomen; the pronounced appetite effect of GHRP-6 leads many protocols to time doses deliberately around meals.)
- Dose range: 200-500 mcg
- Dose tiers: low 200 mcg; moderate 300 mcg; high 500 mcg
- Half-life: CJC-1295 without DAC is reported at roughly 30 minutes (or several days with DAC); GHRP-6 is reported at roughly 30-60 minutes.
- Timing: ~30 min before bed, empty stomach
- Cycle: 8-12 weeks on, 4 weeks off (The pronounced appetite effect is commonly used as a practical cue for meal timing.)
- Storage: Refrigerate after reconstitution (2-8°C); commonly described as stable for 3-4 weeks.

## Mechanism of action

CJC-1295 stimulates the GHRH receptor to support sustained GH release. GHRP-6 activates the ghrelin receptor, producing both a GH pulse and a marked increase in hypothalamic ghrelin-receptor-driven appetite. The combination is described as supporting a GH pulse alongside increased caloric intake, which some research protocols use deliberately to support a caloric surplus.

## Reported benefits

- Stimulates a growth-hormone pulse
- Pronounced appetite stimulation
- Supports caloric-surplus-oriented research goals
- Associated with recovery and muscle-growth research interest

## Reported side effects

- Significant increase in hunger
- Water retention
- Lethargy
- Injection site irritation
- Flushing

## Common protocols

- Mass Gain Stack
- Muscle Growth

## Stacking notes

The appetite-stimulating profile of GHRP-6 makes this pairing more suited to caloric-surplus research contexts than lean-recomposition protocols, where GHRP-2 or ipamorelin pairings are more commonly referenced.
