Follistatin-344 is a protein that blocks myostatin, theoretically removing your body’s natural muscle-building limits. While this sounds like a method for insane gains, human data is extremely scarce and it has been linked to faster tumor growth in some cancers.
Mechanism of Action
Follistatin works by binding to and neutralizing myostatin, a protein that naturally limits muscle growth. By blocking myostatin, follistatin theoretically allows for unlimited muscle growth beyond normal genetic limits.
Benefits
- •Theoretical removal of genetic muscle limits
- •Potential for extreme muscle growth
- •May improve muscle fiber quality
- •Could enhance recovery from muscle damage
- •Possible applications in muscle wasting diseases
Side Effects & Negatives
- •Linked to accelerated tumor growth in cancers
- •Unknown long-term effects on organ systems
- •Potential immune system complications
- •Risk of uncontrolled tissue growth
- •Injection site reactions and inflammation
- •Possible cardiovascular stress from rapid growth
Safety Profile
Extremely limited human safety data. Animal studies show concerning links to tumor growth and cancer progression. Not FDA-approved and considered highly experimental. The risk-to-benefit ratio is heavily skewed toward risk.
Dosage Information
No established human dosing protocols exist. Research doses in animals vary widely. Any human use is purely experimental and dangerous.
Research Studies
- 1. No credible human or animal studies found specifically for Follistatin-344 muscle building applications. Most research on follistatin focuses on its role in development and disease, not performance enhancement. The lack of published research makes this peptide particularly risky and unproven.
