SARMs (Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators<\/strong>) are compounds designed to selectively interact with androgen receptors in the body. Unlike traditional anabolic steroids, SARMs aim to offer specific benefits such as muscle growth and fat loss, but with less impact on other tissues like the liver, prostate, or skin. <\/p>\n\n SARMs work by selectively binding<\/strong> to androgen receptors in muscles and bones, activating anabolic pathways without significantly affecting other organs. This theoretical selectivity differentiates them from steroids, which act more generally throughout the body. <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Main Types of SARMs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Research on SARMs continues, with some compounds showing promise for:<\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What are SARMs?
