In the world of performance and health research, two categories of compounds often come up: SARMs (Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators) and peptides. While they sometimes get lumped together, they are very different in structure, mechanism, and research applications. If you’re wondering what sets them apart, this guide will walk you through the basics of SARMs vs. peptides, so you can understand where each fits in research settings.
Note: Both SARMs and peptides offered at Corleone Pharma are intended strictly for laboratory research purposes only. They are not approved for human or animal use.

SARMs are synthetic compounds that bind selectively to androgen receptors in the body. Unlike anabolic steroids, which affect multiple tissues, SARMs are designed to be more selective.
Research focus: - Lean muscle mass preservation - Bone density support - Performance and recovery studies
Examples: Ostarine (MK-2866), Ligandrol (LGD-4033), RAD-140.

What Are Peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids — the same building blocks that make proteins. They act as signaling molecules in the body, influencing a wide range of processes from healing to
metabolism.
Research focus: - Tissue regeneration (e.g., BPC-157, TB-500) - Weight management (e.g., Retatrutide, Semaglutide) - Anti-aging and cognitive studies (e.g., Epithalon, Semax)

SARMs vs. Peptides – Key Differences
Structure: SARMs = small synthetic molecules | Peptides = amino acid chains Target: SARMs = androgen receptors | Peptides = diverse cell receptors & pathways Primary focus: SARMs = muscle & performance | Peptides = healing, metabolism, anti-aging Form: SARMs = oral (capsules/liquid) | Peptides = vials, capsules, nasal sprays Range: SARMs = narrow | Peptides = broad

- SARMs are typically studied for muscle and performance models. - Peptides offer a wider range of applications, including weight loss, healing, immune support, and cognitive function. - Some research settings even compare the two directly, as they represent different approaches to influencing biological pathways.
---
While SARMs remain popular in certain studies, peptides have surged ahead because of their diverse mechanisms. From triple agonists like Retatrutide for weight management, to healing peptides like BPC-157, the spectrum of research opportunities is broader.

Whether studying SARMs or peptides, researchers need verified purity to ensure results are valid. That’s why Corleone Pharma provides a COA with every batch, along with discreet, fast delivery from Thailand.
---
- SARMs = selective androgen receptor modulators, mainly studied for muscle/bone effects. - Peptides = amino acid chains with diverse roles in healing, metabolism, and aging. - Peptides offer greater versatility in research compared to SARMs. - Both require strict quality controls for reliable research outcomes.
