Description

Melanotan 2 is a synthetic peptide that mimics the effects of alpha–melanocyte–stimulating hormone. Research has shown that it can increase sexual arousal, reduce compulsive/addictive behavior, curb hunger, and promote lean body mass. Additional research has shown that it may stimulate melanocytes, leading to increased skin pigmentation, and may help to combat autism when used during early childhood development.
