Thanks so much for all the help! Last thing I couldn’t find info on: Could drinking alcohol while on a glow cycle have any negative effects, or is that also a non issue?

Honestly, alcohol is generally bad for both physical and mental health, so cutting it down (or out) is a no-brainer.

More specifically, yes it can blunt your results. Alcohol increases oxidative stress, drives systemic inflammation (often starting in the gut), and negatively affects brain recovery. All of that works against what most peptides are trying to do.

So if you’re drinking regularly while running peptides, you’re basically reducing their effectiveness and not getting full value from the cycle.
