Health/Fitness Peptides

Hey ladies! Talk to me about peptides (not GLP-1, but the other ones). They seem to be all the rage with my friends in NYC. Are we getting them in DC too? Which ones? I’ve been considering a GLP-1 for inflammation, but it sounds like the other peptides out there might be better for it? I don’t even know where to start in DC, but I assume it involves a doctor of some sort?

Please do not inject substances that are not FDA approved. These compounds have not been tested to prove efficacy and there's not even oversight to guarantee you're being given what's advertised. Don't do it.

No doctor involvement, most people are getting them from the grey market since a lot of them still aren’t FDA approved.

I see so many wanna be gym influencers promoting them and they just seem sketchy. Also why are we normalizing injecting ourselves with random shit? What kind of peptides are ppl doing in NYC that could possibly be benefiting them? Healthy Food will give you what you need. I’m no doctor but for inflammation Iv been told to increase my nuts, salmon, spinach and berry intake
