CJC-1295 & Ipamorelin Sleep Protocol: Method Comparison

Standard 1:1 Ratio 100mcg 45 min pre-bed Nightly (5–7 days/week) Increased slow-wave sleep duration, improved next-day recovery markers Most reliable starting point. Balanced GHRH and ghrelin pathway activation with minimal cortisol risk Conservative 2:1 Ratio

This comparison does not assign a generated winner or score.

  • Standard 1:1 Ratio
  • 100mcg
  • 45 min pre-bed
  • Nightly (5–7 days/week)
  • Increased slow-wave sleep duration, improved next-day recovery markers
  • Most reliable starting point. Balanced GHRH and ghrelin pathway activation with minimal cortisol risk
  • Conservative 2:1 Ratio
  • 50mcg
  • Enhanced deep sleep consolidation, reduced sleep fragmentation
  • Preferred for users sensitive to ghrelin or with baseline cortisol dysregulation
  • Aggressive 1:1 High-Dose
  • 150mcg
  • 5 days/week (2-day break)
  • Maximal GH pulse amplitude, significant recovery enhancement
  • Risk of cortisol spillover above 250mcg total. Only for experienced users with confirmed cortisol baseline control
  • Split-Dose (Non-Sleep Focus)
  • 50mcg AM, 50mcg PM
  • Upon waking + 45 min pre-bed
  • Twice daily
  • Elevated daytime GH, moderate sleep improvement
  • Less effective for sleep-specific goals. Splits circadian alignment and reduces nocturnal pulse amplitude
