Is there a 'best' dose of MK-677 for body recomposition versus anti-aging protocols?

Body recomposition protocols targeting muscle accretion and fat loss typically use 20–25mg daily to maximize IGF-1's anabolic signaling and lipolytic effects, though this requires concurrent resistance training and protein intake above 2.0g/kg to realize tissu

  • Body recomposition protocols targeting muscle accretion and fat loss typically use 20–25mg daily to maximize IGF-1's anabolic signaling and lipolytic effects, though this requires concurrent resistance training and protein intake above 2.0g/kg to realize tissue-level benefits. Anti-aging protocols prioritizing longevity markers, sleep quality, and skin/connective tissue health often achieve target outcomes at 12.5–15mg, where GH and IGF-1 elevation supports cellular repair processes without the metabolic burden of higher doses. The dose-response curve shows diminishing returns above 20mg for most endpoints. Pushing to 30mg increases side-effect burden by 60% while enhancing IGF-1 output by only 15%, making risk-benefit ratios unfavorable except in specific clinical contexts like severe GH deficiency.
