Is Geref the prefered doping product?

Check this link on the product Geref It is translated from danish but i found it interesting because ive never heard of the product before, but a quick search brought up this link.

Geref is a growth hormone-releasing agonist. It works by stimulating the pituitary gland to release growth hormone.

As it says in the article it is also undetectable.

Your thoughts about it?

There are around 12 generic HRH drugs and regardless of the UCI bravado: ALL undetectable. The all stimulate the body into producing a natural item in unnaturally increased levels.

bing!

In theory, it should be detectable. Anyone injecting an artificial polypeptide could be providing they are tested within a few 1/2 lives of the drug.

Novedex XT has grown quite popular as a way to get elevated test...

Novedex XT is banned by WADA and UCI, and you will fail a test for it. It will will show up pretty easily in a steroid test, as it appears as metabolites of Boldenone. So it would be a pretty poor choice. If you are at risk of failing a steroid test, may as well be taking a proper steroid.
