Say we're going to be talking about.

Does MK67 cause brain damage?

So this is a, you know, more obscure topic, but, you know,

it's touched on in the community.

And there have been links between chronic ghrelin exposure and, uh,

negative mental outcomes.

So I did cover this briefly in my original post, but, you know, I feel like getting a separate

dedicated video is warranted for this topic in particular.

So the data this derives from is the data on rats that showed enhanced fear.

So one study on rats evaluated MK677's potential to cause enhanced levels of fear.

So like I mentioned, there's evidence to support that one of the ways grelin is modulated is through exposure to stress.

So if you don't already know grelin is the hunger hormone, basically stimulates signals to your brain that you're hungry and that you have to eat.

So as you'd expect, when it's time to eat and you haven't ate in a while, grelin levels get higher.

And after you have ate a bunch of while, grelin levels get higher.

And after you have ate a bunch of food, grelin levels decreased to help you notify your brain that you're satiated essentially.

So when you like artificially inflate this or artificially create super physiological

amounts of grelin secretion, you artificially make yourself hungry essentially,

and this is why peptides like GHRP6, GHRP2, and secretagogues like MK67, caused such a drastic

spike in hunger is because you're basically tricking your brain into thinking you're hungry

when you otherwise may not be. Aside from the obvious, you know, potential negative ramifications of overeating as a

consequence of this, the evidence does support that one of the ways Grolin is modulated
