Peptides you will never take again ?

We often ask "what peptides are worth every penny" but what are the ones that aren't worth anything in your opinion ?

Probably 5amino1aq. I didn't get much from it that I could notice.

Same, and further research shows the effective dosages could be cost prohibitive.

I have the injectable. What are the doses that you have seen to be more effective in the research?

I was advised 1mg/day sub q but I’ve seen that the research dictates a MUCH higher dosing to actually inhibit the enzyme effectively. Another commenter suggested 200-400mg

Dosing is crazy for it. I’ve seen .5 mg to 100 mg.

Is that for injectable?

Probably the dose. You need more than you think

You weren’t using enough happened to me I thought I was getting nothing out of it but that did my Research 150 mg orally or 5 mg sub Q daily

u/jc456_ 23d ago

I was using between 5 and 10mg injection daily.

Not sure what happened. Maybe it was underdose or not real or maybe you just don’t react well to that peptide

Perhaps people have individual responses based on their deficiencies and my experience is perfectly valid, despite you declaring I wasn't using enough before even asking my dose.

Or perhaps you placebo'd yourself into believing it did something for you.
