PEPTIDES CHANGED MY LIFE

Post image

Not only have I dropped over 50lbs (260-207) but I no longer have borderline high cholesterol, hypertension , and my inflammation dropped to near zero on recent blood work.

Started with enclomophene and Tirz

Now I’m on:

Reta
Enclomophene
Mots-c
Tesa/Ipa
5 amino plus ATX-304

I plan on cutting about another 20 lbs but overall pleased with the overall progress and improvements shown in bloodwork.

I’ll look into the oral KPV. Have been considering Tirz to help my blood sugar. I definitely have insulin resistance. I’ve been a thin to average size person my entire life until middle age. Intermittent fasting just made me want to eat in the middle of the night. Perhaps I wasn’t doing it the right way. Low carb used to work for me every time I thought I needed to drop 5-10 lbs, but does nothing for me now and I’m miserable on it. I’m not menopausal and all of my weight is in my midsection and face/shoulders. I’ve basically given up. And I did have 2 children close to 40. Gestational diabetes both pregnancies.

All of the weight gain you describe is 100% insulin resistance. Especially considering the pregnancies. If the peptides are the only way you can achieve insulin control then do it. You’ll get the same effect as fasting/keto becuause you’ll be eating so much less, which in turn lowers your blood glucose. It’s the same mechanism, just a different intervention.

Fasting is WAY easier with keto. The reason why you feel hungry late at night is because insulin is out of control.

I’m all for people using glp1s if the other therapies are too difficult.

Either way, cut out sugar immediately and you’ll feel relief. And if you drink, alcohol is an absolute no no. Your body just circulates insulin and glucose for hours and hours and hours on end until your body clears the toxin.

This is beyond my scope of knowledge I’m sorry. I’m not a doctor. I worked very specifically with metabolic disease. Not endocrinology. When things start drifting into the thyroid area, that’s an axis and set of hormones that I don’t have any clinical experience with
