Because growth hormone plays a direct role in lipolysis, the process of breaking down triglycerides (stored fat) into free fatty acids that your body can use for energy is increased.<\/p>\n This means Tesamorelin helps your body shift from storing fat to burning it, especially around the abdomen and visceral area (the deep belly fat surrounding internal organs). In a study, tesamorelin showed to be 3.9 times greater<\/a> in doing this than patients receiving a placebo.<\/p>\n By raising IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1) levels, Tesamorelin also helps preserve lean muscle mass while reducing fat. This means your resting metabolism improves – muscle burns more calories than fat, even at rest – leading to more efficient long-term fat burning.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How Does Tesamorelin Help Sleep?” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n Because Tesamorelin is a growth hormone\u2013releasing hormone (GHRH) analog, it may support better sleep by stimulating the body\u2019s natural production of growth hormone, which is <\/span>closely tied to deep, restorative slow-wave sleep<\/span><\/a>. GHRH itself has been shown in studies to promote non-REM sleep and improve sleep quality.<\/span><\/p>\n Benefits may also come indirectly through better metabolism, reduced visceral fat, and enhanced recovery. However, sleep disturbances like insomnia can occur in some individuals, so results can vary.
