Spin-trapping studies of hydroxyl radical production involved in lipid peroxidation
Visceral fat reduction: 15-18% after 26-52 weeks Response rate: 69% of participants achieved 8% or greater VAT reduction Triglyceride reduction: 50 mg/dL average decrease Cholesterol ratio improvement: Significant improvement in total cholesterol to HDL ratio Liver fat reduction: Modest reductions in hepatic fat content Beyond Fat Loss: Metabolic Benefits Tesamorelin produces metabolic improvements that extend beyond simple fat reduction
Quick Results Some patients report seeing improvements in as little as 48 hours, with full results typically taking 21-30 days
