Which products are best for increasing appetite?

[Mike Arnold]

If you can't eat, you can't grow!

If you're anything like me, following a proper BB'in diet, day in and day out, is by far the most difficult part of the bodybuilding experience. The sheer amount of food required to maximize size gains, along with a meal frequency that keeps my appetite suppressed at all times, makes eating a fairly miserable experience. Under normal circumstances, I very rarely receive enjoyment from what is supposed to be a basic pleasure of life, but even worse is that despite this loss, I still struggle and often faill to take in enough calories to make additional progress.

Meeting one's caloric requirements can be especially difficult for those with faster metabolisms, but even for those few guys with slower metabolisms and naturally big appetites, most will still admit that true mas-building diets are a pain in the ass to follow. Regardless of which end of the spectrum you find yourself on, having to tough it out day after day at the kitchen table is not what most of us signed up for when we first dreamed of getting big.

As if this weren't bad enough, some of our most effective mass-building drugs often result in the side effect of you guessed it...appetite suppression! For some guys it can get so bad that they are forced to discontinue the offending drug altogether. Any way you look at this is an unfortunate situation.

Over the years I have tried nearly every remedy which has promised to help boost appetite, so that I could consume an optimal amount of calories on a consistent basis, but I have failed repeatedly. It seems that after only a week or two, I always end up reducing my caloric intake back down to a more comfortable range. Whether your appetite issues are caused by digestion problems, a naturally small appetite, prescription drugs, or any other number of potential causes, there is one thing that might help.

In my experience, the most effective approach to appetite enhancement I have ever encountered is the GHRP's (also known as GH peptides), particularly GHRP-6 and to a slightly lesser degree, GHRP-2. Both of these drugs have been tremendously helpful at increasing my appetite, bringing me from the point where I barely ever wanted to eat, to looking forward to eating at least half of my daily meals. In some instances the increase in appetite is so extreme that I find myself shoving in food that I never would have otherwise. In some cases, after administering a moderately large dose of one of these GHRP's, I have found myself wanting to eat a whole other meal less than 1 hour after finishing the first one!

These products have been a God-send for me, restoring my enjoyment of food, as well as my ability to eat all the calories required for growth. These GHRP's have the added benefit of accelerating gastric emptying, allowing us to make room for the next meal more quickly. Of course, the accompanying increase in GH levels is another huge benefit and the primary reason many people use these peptides in the first place, but I digress. The bottom line is that if you have a hard time eating all the food you need to grow as fast as possible, you may find your solution in GHRP-6 and GHRP-2.

Both are inexpensive to use. At $10-$20 per vial and providing 25-50 doses each, the products are very inexpensive to use. With minimal out of pocket expense and such potentially large benefits, anyone who finds themselves in a situation similar to mine should try them at least once. I am glad that I did and they will continue to remain an integral part of my program.

I suffer the same exact problem. What would be the dosing and frequency of each?

Equipoise is known for increasing your appetite. Some people run it alone, personally I don't run any compound without at least a low dose test. Or if you can get your hands on some marinol (synthetic thc) frequently given to cancer patients to increase their appetite.
