AOD-9604, also known as the Anti-Obesity Drug is one of the rare peptides that is FDA approved. The FDA lists it under the GRAS status, which means it is Generally Recognized as Safe when used as intended. AOD-9604 is a modified synthetic analog of human growth hormone, originally developed in the 1990’s by Professor Frank NG at the Monash University in Australia.  Professor Ng was trying to find a drug that would replicate the fat-busting effects of human growth hormone without the muscle-building properties.  It is known to speed up metabolism and increase weight loss in less time than simply diet and exercise combined.  For more information on AOD-9604, check out our blog!   https://edgeweightloss.com/2021/04/29/peptide-aod-9604-what-is-it-and-how-does-it-work/
