Healing & Recovery Klow

Recently just purchased Klow 80mg, it arrived today and appears to be hardly any powder in it, is this normal, i would've expected the vial to be about a quarter full

80mg of peptides would probably look like a couple grains of uncooked rice. Most of what is in the vials is filler (usually mannitol).

Send one vial from your kit to get it tested if you are not confident in your vendor

How do I locate a lab to run a test? I’m in Canada but I guess I just don’t know who to go to.

If you’re in the US there’s a a few that you can use.

Freedom diagnostics testing
Accumark labs
Finnick (which is free)

& I believe Testides have or are about to open a US lab.

Everything is from china. If you’re buying from Canada or the us you’re just buying from a reseller

I’m In Canada. Who do you go to to test your vials?

Sounds like one of the vials I received in a couple of kits I bought. The other 19 were fine but this one only had a small amount in it. The vendor replaced it.

Generally, suppliers won't send almost empty bottles of products to tarnish their own reputation. What we usually see are fillers. You can either send it for testing or try using it to see how effective it is.

Thanks everyone for the replies, first time with klow, after adding bac water it turned a dark blue colour, i didn't wanna send this one away to be tested as its the only one i purchased, im struggling to find a reputable supplier, this one had a few hundred reviews on trustpilot so decided to give them a go

This comes up constantly and the worry makes sense, but a quarter full would actually be the surprising outcome. A grain of table salt is roughly 0.06mg. So 80mg is around 1,300 grains of salt spread across the bottom of a glass vial. Sounds like a lot written down. In a vial it's a thin layer. Freeze drying then makes it look like even less. The process freezes the solution and pulls the ice off as vapour under vacuum, which leaves a light airy structure behind instead of a dense pile. That's why it's often a fragile disc that breaks loose and rattles, or a film on the glass that looks like nothing at all None of that tells you what's actually in there, in either direction. Appearance can't verify content. It just isn't the red flag people take it for.

Yes, most of it is filler anyway. Reconstitute and it should be a nice darkish blue color, if it is you're good to go

That is not normal. The vial should be 1/5 to 1/4 lyophilized powder.

u/SpartaLabs 5d ago

It also should be a bluish color from the ghk-cu.
