SARMs (Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators)

Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are compounds that target specific androgen receptors in the body to promote muscle growth and improve bone density. Unlike traditional steroids, which affect many tissues and can cause widespread side effects, SARMs are designed to selectively stimulate only those tissues involved in muscle and bone development. This specificity aims to provide similar benefits to anabolic steroids while reducing the risk of adverse effects elsewhere in the body. SARMs are currently researched for medical uses like treating muscle wasting but are also used illicitly for performance enhancement.
