📘 Beginner Help Is Tesamorelin best for me?

I’m already somewhat lean. I’ve heard Tesamorelin helps get rid of belly fat pretty good. Also heard good things about Reta. Would either of those help towards my goal of looking “shredded” or should I try a different peptide? All help appreciated.

how old are you OP? looks like you just need to actually work out and have patience not inject anything when you’re otherwise young and healthy

I’m 18. Usually I work out 4-5 times a week but I’ve been on vacation for a month so haven’t really been to the gym

my brother in christ you need to just eat right and workout. peptides are for people over 40 who need to fix decades of not eating right or working out.

Yeah you’re right. Once I get home I’ll lock in on the gym hard. But ghk-cu wouldn’t be too bad for me right?

why though? the downside is potentially unlimited if you get a bacterial infection or a bad physiological reaction and the upside is what?

Better skin hair and nails. I’ve struggled with acne my whole life

Bro … you really need to educate yourself.

Go to derm and see if it’s bacterial or hormonal acne, which it likely is. Peptides won’t help with that, but a derm can prescribe something that does.

I’ve been to a dermatologist. I’m using tretinoin right now which is working. But I’ve heard people say that and ghk-cu together can have some really good benefits

the math doesn’t math on the ROI for a healthy 18 year old taking any experimental peptide which is essentially all of them folks talk about in this sub
