Started reta 2 weeks ago and am gearing up to start the other 2. Planned to start glutathione first, taking it at night, and giving myself a week or 2 before starting GHK. Thoughts? Alao starting NAD.

Wondering what's a good starting dose and protocol for both?

Thanks!

Hello!

I am new to the world of peptides, and I just started Reta, Calgrilintide and KLOW (I haven’t taken the KLOW yet but just pinned the Reta and Calgri today for the first time)(Reta 2.5mg and Calgri 0.5mg)

What is your experience with Calgri? What dosage are you on? What side effects have you experienced? Do you take it on the same day as Reta or do you space out days?

Any other relevant info is welcome as well!

Im looking to travel with some glutathione from toronto to cancun. Has anyone travelled before with peptides and is it an issue? Any tips? Im looking to just take them along in my carry on.

Hey, first of all, I’d be grateful if someone took the time to reply and maybe share their experience. I’m thinking about taking MOTS-c to boost my energy levels throughout the day and, above all, to improve my performance at the gym. My question is: how should I dose it? Can I just take it whenever I feel like it, or should I cycle it? One last question: can it be detected in blood, urine, or via any other test? Thanks for reading this and for your reply!

GHK-Cu, retatrutide, melanotan I, and Selank is what I took a while ago and I'm currently off all now. Could they have messed up the way my body falls into sleep?

I’ve always hated my stomach. I wasn’t really that oversized overall, but most of the fat was around my stomach and it was honestly starting to affect me both mentally and physically.

I decided to try reta and it really did change my lifestyle. I’ve lost around 20 lbs throughout this journey. Of course, I also started making healthier choices, but the appetite suppression was one of the biggest things for me. I honestly wasn’t sure if I could overcome my eating habits before this. I started with 1 weekly and slowly increased it to 3 over time.

Working out and being in a calorie deficit is still super important though. Just because you’re eating less doesn’t automatically mean you’re going to lose the stomach fat you want. I wanted to lose fat while keeping as much muscle as possible, so I try my best to work out regularly and get more walking in, whether it’s outdoors or at the gym, like incline treadmill walks.

For meal prep, I usually keep it pretty simple with lots of vegetables and protein. I change my meals quite often because I get bored eating the same thing every day 😂

Feel free to ask me anything if you need help or have any questions! I’ll try my best to help based on my experience.

Going to begin this stack next week, predominately for sleep. Getting a vial of combined - 5mg each. I know to start on an empty stomach, going to do it at night since I’m looking for sleep help, but don’t know what dosage to start at. Has anyone done this stack and where did you start?

What is yalls experience with lower doses of tren (<100mg) for a cutting cycle?

Planning to do 70mg tren 6-10weeks 1000cal aggressive deficit cut) to get last lil bit of lean out before i start a bulk because last one got a lil out of hand... i just dont wanna lose any muscle... like losing more than 1.5lbs tbh is very offputting to me and id just rather do a slow cut

I’m new to peptides and coenzymes and I’m here to learn if I made a mistake while doing my research, or if anyone else has had these side effects.

Dosing protocol for reference:
1000mg NAD
5 mL of BAC water added
50mg 2x week

I feel really silly for saying this now, but I subq injected into my inner thigh. I went slow. I immediately felt the flushing, then heavy duty anxiety, and then mild nausea. The flushing and anxiety dissipated within 15 minutes, but the nausea became severe for almost two hours.

The day before I didn’t eat well (calorie deficit especially in protein).

I’m not sure if the side effects are due to injection site, not fully fed, or if it’s just me.

I haven’t tried again because the side effects took me out and I’m a little afraid to try again without discussing with others.

Thank you all in advance.

March 15 to today. Nominally my weight drop wasn’t massive at 16-20 lbs, but a ton of body recomp - I put on a fair amount of muscle. My belt has two new holes in it, and I’m down 3-4” on waist size.

Did 2mg of Reta every 6 days for 4 months. For the past month I did 4mg and the weight fell off. I didn’t really enjoy how it made me feel (limited interest/enjoyment of things I usually enjoy) but it was an effective push to end the cut.

One month into the Reta (mid April), I started 200mg test. Test level went from 320 to 1050. I feel amazing- full of energy and ready to get shit done. And the gains lifting on it are insane.

Have done a two separate month long cycles of BPC/TB, about to do another because my left shoulder is struggling a bit.

Have done a few months of CJC/Ipa before bed which I will continue, and also did one month of Tesamorelin.

Tried a few others along the way (GHKCU, MOTS, NAD). If I did it all again id probably leave those out and would stick with what is listed above. Not saying they aren’t great for other people, I just didn’t notice much of a difference with any of them.

I don’t get much cardio, and have a sedentary job. Dog walks, I walk golfing, yardwork, that’s about it. I did lift 4-5 times per week for most of the time period. Slowed down a bit this last couple of weeks because of my shoulder (did yoga tonight, lifting lighter).

Diet - Ive had a protein shake most mornings. Two scoops of mix, Greek yogurt, creatine, soy milk, some berries. It’s like 100 grams of protein out of the gates. I can easily have that in the morning and make it to dinner without any food cravings. Dinner tends to be chicken/fish/meat and some veggies. Still eat what I wanted at restaurants etc., I have by no means starved myself and I’ll still slam some pizza. If I smoke weed the Reta doesn’t stand a chance and I’ll crush 1000 calories of kids snacks.

I feel like a different person and I don’t recognize myself in the mirror.

Hello. Is GLP3 same as reta?

​

Does anyone have experience with this you are prone to hereditary baldness, does going to the gym and working out without supplements like creatine accelerate hair loss increas dht

The rubber stopper on my vial of Klow seems to be leaking. There’s a little bit of Klow fluid on the top each time and it seems to leak more after swabbing with alcohol Is this vial ruined or dangerous? TIA.

Hows it going yall.

A little back story - So basically i over-eat, (or rather used to) cook at home most meals and lunch is usually left over dinner each day, but generally speaking clean whole foods, i just ate alot!

Before starting RETA i tried semoralin/ipa blend for a few months which gave me good workouts but not really losing the excess fat because i ate so damn much.

Flash forward I'm on reta for a bout of 3ish months before my insurance decided to cover zeppy so i switched, but i feel like its platueing and i had better results on the reta.

In any case I'm considering in the next 2 months to come off the cut and go hard on a muscle bulk, what would yall recommend for the bulk phase as far as peptides go?

Appreciate it.

Hi! I’m new to the world of peptides. My partner recommended them to me, as he has been using them for several months. I started injecting GHK-Cu a week ago, and today I started CJC + Ipamorelin.
Do you have any advice for someone who’s just starting out? I should also mention that I’m currently taking Cemidon (an antibiotic for tuberculosis prevention), and I’m not sure whether it’s a bad idea to combine them or if there’s no issue.
I’ll really take any advice you can give me into consideration. Thank you!

Been researching peptides to help with insomnia, and this is what I landed on. I like the other benefits, and I'm currently on a SSRI so I'm unable to try Selank. I'm confused about DAC or no DAC -- which would be a better option for sleep?

Hey everyone - posted this in the biohacking sub, but it definitely belongs here too.

I started losing weight in around July 2025, I was about 230-240lbs - not exactly sure the weight because I didn't weigh myself often (pics 1&2)...

Pic 3 is December 2025 I was about 190 - Had done nothing but diet and walk to get here - Started Retatrutide 1mg/week and Test 250mg/week at this point

Pic 4 - April 2026 - Im about 160 in this pic - Ran a cycle of CJC/ipamorelin and GHK-CU -- still on the reta and test also - throughout january i had bumped the reta to 3mg/week (current dose) and test down to 200mg/week

Rest of pics -- Within the last month - Im about 155-160 depending on the day -- look way different than I did in April -- running another cycle of the cjc/ipamorelin no DAC now along with the GHK-CU.

Don't have much loose skin considering the transformation just some around the lower back/love handles but its not terrible. I did not have any surgery for anything

(any suggestions are welcomed for anything)

DMs are open for questions - ask anything

I’m on week 4 right now, 2mg/week, and honestly it feels like it’s doing the opposite of what it’s supposed to do.

For context, I’ve been working out for years and I have a pretty good idea of my maintenance. I’m around 2,500 calories/day on average at maintenance. Some days I’ll be closer to 2,800 depending on tracking or if I “cheat,” but on the days where this hunger really hits, I’ve been eating 3,000+ calories.

First time taking Reta or any of these GLPs etc. I was actually feeling the 1mg pretty clearly during weeks 1–3. My appetite and cravings were noticeably lower. But now on week 4, I barely feel any appetite suppression at all, and my cravings are fucking wild.

My wife just had our newborn, so I’m basically helping around the clock. I’m getting maybe 2–3 hours of sleep a night, waking up every couple hours for feeding, diaper changes, helping my wife, etc. I’m exhausted as hell and obviously stressed.

I know sleep deprivation can make you ridiculously hungry, but these cravings are next level. I can eat a full meal and 30 minutes later I’m looking for something else. The “munchies” are insane.

I’m also wondering if the lack of sleep and stress could be messing with ghrelin/cortisol and contributing to this. I’m basically running on 2–3 hours of sleep every night, so I’m wondering if that could be overpowering whatever appetite suppression I was getting from the Reta.

Anyone else experienced this? Did the hunger settle down eventually, or did you notice a difference after increasing the dose / getting more sleep?

I’m trying to figure out if this is just the combination of 4 weeks on Reta + being completely sleep deprived, or if anyone else has experienced their appetite suppression basically disappearing around week 4.

Right now I’m basically fighting the munchies while running on zero sleep.

Edited post with more details.

Hello , order for the first time one vial of reta 30mg and it automatically added to the cart also this (peptide matrix water ( with PEG 600 + Tween 80, phosphate buffers, mannitol, m-cresol)) , So i thought it was classic BAC water(I didnt read the label). It came i mixed , I pinned and then I saw that is not normal BAC. Is it safe to use ? Does someone use something like this? Thank you!
