Tesamorelin (Egrifta) Explained 2026: Visceral Fat Reduction, IGF-1, Dosing Protocols & Longevity Stacks


Listen Later

Tesamorelin (Egrifta / Egrifta SV) is one of the most discussed “longevity-adjacent” tools in 2026—because it targets visceral fat (the fat around organs that drives metabolic aging), while stimulating natural growth hormone pulses through the GHRH pathway.

In this episode, we go origin-to-clinic:

✅ What tesamorelin is (and why it’s different than straight HGH)
✅ The HIV lipodystrophy approval story + what the data actually showed
✅ Why longevity / functional medicine clinics are using it off-label in 2026
✅ Practical dosing ranges discussed in clinics, cycling strategies, and timing
✅ Popular combinations (fasting, peptides, glucose-support strategies)
✅ Who tends to benefit most—and who should avoid it
✅ Labs worth tracking (IGF-1, fasting glucose/A1c, lipids, waist, and more)

Medical Disclaimer: Tesamorelin is an FDA-approved prescription medication for HIV-associated lipodystrophy. This content is for education only and is not medical advice. Off-label use, dosing changes, and combinations require physician supervision. Potential risks include injection-site reactions and changes in glucose control/insulin sensitivity. Always consult a licensed clinician.
