🔥 Advanced Metabolic Series

The FurnaceAdvanced Lipolysis

Aggressive fat oxidation targeting visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and insulin sensitivity via a triple-vector attack: GLP-1/GIP/Glucagon agonism, Growth Hormone lipolysis, and Mitochondrial Beta-Oxidation.

The Triple-Vector Attack

Standard weight loss fails because it triggers metabolic adaptation (slowed thyroid) and muscle loss (sarcopenia). "The Furnace" prevents this by simultaneously upregulating basal metabolic rate (Thyroid), preserving lean tissue (GH pathway), and liberating visceral fat stores.

Note: This is an advanced protocol. It is safer and more effective than "fat burners" (stimulants) because it works via endogenous hormonal signaling rather than sympathetic nervous system overload.

🎯 Visceral Fat

Targeting the inflammatory fat around organs.

⚡ Insulin Sensitivity

Restoring the body's ability to partition nutrients into muscle.

Tier 1

Endocrine Optimization

Goal: Thyroid & Pancreatic Health

Before pushing the accelerator, we must ensure the engine is tuned. We use bioregulators to optimize the Thyroid (metabolic rate) and Pancreas (insulin production).

Thyreogen (Thyroid)

Prevents the metabolic slowdown often associated with caloric restriction. Modulates thyroid activity to ensure optimal conversion of T4 to T3, the active metabolic hormone.

Dose: 2 capsules daily (Morning)

Suprefort (Pancreas)

Supports the beta cells of the pancreas. Improves native insulin secretion and sensitivity, ensuring that carbohydrates are utilized for energy rather than stored as fat.

Dose: 2 capsules daily (with largest meal)

Tier 2

Advanced Peptide Lipolysis

Goal: The "Big Guns" of Fat Loss

Retatrutide (The "King")

Triple Agonist

The most potent metabolic agent currently in research. It targets three receptors: GLP-1 (satiety), GIP (metabolic regulation), and Glucagon (energy expenditure).

⚠️ Note: Very potent. Titration must be slow to avoid nausea. Monitoring of resting heart rate is required.

Tesamorelin

Mechanism: GHRH Analog

The only FDA-approved peptide specifically for creating "lipolytic pulses" to reduce visceral fat in HIV patients. It is highly specific for fat loss without the water retention of generic HGH.

Dose: 1-2mg SubQ.

Timing: STRICTLY fasted (AM or before bed). Avoid food for 90 mins post-injection.

AOD-9604

Mechanism: HGH Fragment

"Anti-Obesity Drug" 9604. It is the lipolytic C-terminus fragment of Human Growth Hormone. It liberates fatty acids for energy but does NOT affect blood sugar or IGF-1 levels.

Dose: 300mcg SubQ daily.

Synergy: Stacks perfectly with Tesamorelin for maximum mobilization.

Tier 3

Metabolic Amplifiers

Goal: Oxidation & Nutrient Partitioning

Zone 2 Cardio

Peptides mobilize fat (release it into blood), but you must oxidize it (burn it). Low-intensity Zone 2 cardio is the only state where fat is the primary fuel source.

Protocol: 45 mins, 4x per week.

5-amino-1MQ

NNMT Inhibitor

The "Metabolic Brake" remover. It inhibits the enzyme NNMT, which typically increases as we gain fat. By blocking it, we restore NAD+ levels and force fat cells to burn energy rather than store it.

Dose: 50mg-150mg orally daily.

Synergy: Stacks with Tesamorelin to prevent any potential insulin resistance.
