IGF-1 LR3 Deus Medical

IGF-1 LR3  Deus Medical

IGF-1 LR3 by Deus Medical is a high-performance analog of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1.¹ In its natural form, IGF-1 has a half-life of only a few minutes.² The Long R3 (LR3) modification is a critical structural change that prevents the peptide from being neutralized by binding proteins in the blood.³

This modification extends the active life of the peptide to 20–30 hours.⁴ Unlike the DES version, which is used for localized "site" growth, IGF-1 LR3 circulates systemically, providing a 24-hour anabolic signal that promotes fat loss, muscle recovery, and the creation of new muscle cells across the entire body.

Technical Product Specifications

Core Performance & Anabolic Benefits

• 24-Hour Anabolic Window: The extended half-life means a single daily injection keeps your body in a heightened state of repair and growth for over an entire day.⁵

• Hyperplasia (Fiber Creation): IGF-1 LR3 is one of the few compounds that can trigger hyperplasia—the actual splitting of muscle cells to create new fibers—effectively raising your genetic ceiling for muscle mass.

• Aggressive Nutrient Partitioning: It shuttles amino acids and glucose into muscle cells more efficiently, ensuring that the food you eat is used for building tissue rather than being stored as fat.

• Systemic Recovery: It promotes the repair of connective tissues, nerves, and internal organs, making it a comprehensive "body-wide" recovery agent.

• Inhibition of Muscle Breakdown: It acts as a powerful anti-catabolic agent by inhibiting the pathways that lead to protein degradation.⁶

Usage, Reconstitution & Protocols

Because of its long half-life, IGF-1 LR3 is much simpler to dose than other growth factors.

Reconstitution: Add 1 ml or 2 ml of Bacteriostatic Water or Acetic Acid to the 1 mg vial.

• If using 1 ml of water, a 50 mcg dose is exactly 5 units on a standard U-100 insulin syringe.

Side Effects & Safety Management

• Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sugar): Like insulin, IGF-1 LR3 can cause blood sugar to drop.⁷ Always consume a meal with 40–60g of carbohydrates shortly after your injection to prevent dizziness or fatigue.

• Lethargy: Some users feel a "heavy" tiredness during the day as the body works to repair tissue.

• Intestinal Growth (Overuse): Long-term abuse (at very high doses) can lead to the growth of smooth muscle, including the intestines. Stick to recommended cycles and dosages.

• Joint Pain: Rapid muscle growth can sometimes lead to temporary joint or tendon tightness.⁸

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the difference between LR3 and DES?

IGF-1 DES has a very short half-life and is used for localized growth (injecting into a specific muscle). IGF-1 LR3 has a very long half-life and is used for whole-body growth and fat loss via a single daily injection.9

2. Should I take it on rest days?

Yes. Since IGF-1 LR3 stays active for up to 30 hours, taking it on rest days is essential to maintain steady anabolic signaling for recovery.

3. Does it need to be stacked with HGH?

It can be, but it is not necessary. HGH signals the liver to produce IGF-1.10 By taking IGF-1 LR3, you are bypassing the liver and going directly to the target. Many users find that LR3 provides the "best parts" of HGH without the high cost or water retention.

4. Will it shut down my testosterone?

No. It works on the Growth Hormone axis, not the sex hormone axis. It is non-suppressive and does not require any form of Post-Cycle Therapy (PCT).
