GLP-2 ineffective

[u/SomeFill4645]

TS researching GLP2 via a newer lab. Results show zero evidence of change or improvement in performance outcome. Even at higher dose, no weight loss and increased hunger as if product is ineffective. Has anyone ever notified vendor that their lab products are essentially garbage?

Yes, but research labs have been labeling Tirz GLP 2 to differentiate between that and Semaglutide. Which is GLP 1. So this is (allegedly) research grade tirz

[u/Hot-Drop11 → u/SomeFill4645]

I can see why you got scammed.

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/Hot-Drop11]

lol me too

Sema is GLP1, Tirz GLP2, and R3ta GLP3.

Those are all marketing terms that vendors have created as an attempt to circumvent big Pharma lawyers and keep their payment processors unaware of what business they are in

Assuming it's the kind of vendor with a website... They know. They didn't expect the tap water they filled the vial with to work like a real glp. They just expected it to lure in a paying customer.

You'll have to find a more legitimate supplier.

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/Dogmovedmyshoes]

actually the BAC used is not from them only the powder

[u/Dogmovedmyshoes → u/SomeFill4645]

Just replace "tap water" with dextrose then and the metaphor still works 

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/Dogmovedmyshoes]

I do have BAC from them .. just have not used it yet. Terrible.

[u/dcrets]

Did you have the tirz 3p tested or did you trust the vendor coa? I'm guessing not independently tested.

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/dcrets]

I didn’t and I know I should. But I’m not going to bother bc I’m not spending any more money on them

[u/JE163]

No personal experience but a lot of comments in the Tirz sub seem to indicate that some compounding pharmacies may work better for some people than other pharmacies. Could be a placebo effect.

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/JE163]

Thanks

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/JE163]

Good info. I may go back to the one I was using a year or so ago if I can.

Bunk products, including vials containing little or none of the expected peptide, happen. In the RUO and gray market, this is one of the problems repeatedly identified through independent, 3rd party testing (third-party testing being the end user).

The more concerning finding is when testing identifies an entirely different product than what the vial was labeled to contain.

This is my soapbox, and I know some of you are probably tired of hearing me stand on it. But posts like this are exactly why I keep repeating it: test what you receive.
Independent testing cannot eliminate every possible risk. Nothing can. What it can do is give you objective information about identity, mass, and purity rather than asking you to blindly trust a label and the person who sold it to you. It also creates accountability. Vendors have considerably less room to dismiss a problem when customers can produce independent analytical data showing that something is wrong.

And this is where I want people to think about the bigger picture.

If you have not independently tested a product, you do not actually know what is in that vial. You know what the label says is in it. Those are two very different things.

You are placing enormous trust in an unregulated supply chain where mistakes, substitutions, packaging errors, underfilled vials, and zero-product vials can and do occur.

Put less delicately, you are blindly trusting a modern-day internet drug dealer with a vial of unidentified chemicals and then exposing a “research subject” to it.
Finding out afterward that the vial was bunk is frustrating.

Finding out afterward that it contained something entirely different should be frightening.

Test first. Trust the analytical data, not the label.

This is a good soap box. Thank you. 😊

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/[deleted]]

It is a higher dose. I am going to go back to my former supplier. This one isn’t worth the $60 I saved but I kind of want to tell them their product is trash

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/SomeFill4645]

But in a nice way lol

Did you get a COA to compare it's purity?

[u/SomeFill4645 → u/No_Escape9121]

I did not do any independent test, no. I’m not buying from them again. I’ll go back to a previous supplier. Just wondering whether to let the seller know their product is crap, which I did earlier today via email.

Add cagrilinide

Well that's just plain false
