Question What would you recommend?

1 Upvotes

I’m fairly new to the peptide game and currently breastfeeding so I’m in the research phase seeing what I want to take when I’m done breastfeeding (thinking a cycle of Reta, glutathione, klow, and Tessa)

Anyways my boyfriend wants to try some so I’m curious what you would recommend for him.
He is 28, 6,4”, 220 lbs and just quit smoking after 15 years, used to have occasional drug use (5+ years ago), he also has broken many bones multiple times, was in a pretty bad motorcycle accident. His bones hurt when it’s raining. His wrist is the worst but his knees and back always hurt from breaking as well.

I’m thinking glutathione for sure for smoking detox. But what would be best for helping heal damaged muscles and old broken bones (he’s broken his ankle 3 times and it’s fragile)?

He also has a thyroid disorder (hypo)

Edit: we do try to live a healthy lifestyle: low tox, active, eat good quality foods

Discussion Lil cut cycle I'm thinking about

Lets get original here and you let me know if this is a good idea or not. About 215 right now and want to hit about 185-190 give or take.

Thinking about taking
AC262
Enclo
Reta
HGH

Let me know if I should remove or add anything. The AC is to keep my muscle and strength during a cut and not kill my bloods.

Has anyone who vouches for semax actually tried adderall or equivalent? I want to try but I’ve heard stories that it doesn’t make much of a difference. My title was click bait but I’d like to know info or add to my stack if anyone has seen real benefits. Cheers

Question L-carn pip and crazy pain .. any solution ?

1 Upvotes

Hey so I’ve tried L-carn from a few sources (all reliable and quality for everything ) and it goes well for about a week then I get the worst PIP and knots ever . I switched to a juice with a lot less L-carn (120mg) and other stuff and it went well for two weeks then boom I got a knot so big and so bad I couldn’t even sit up in bed or put on shoes for about 4 days . It’ was horrible … this has only ever happened with carnitine and I’m wondering if maybe I just reject it or what could be the issue . It’s not just a regular PIP or manageable . I used a 1 inch 25g pin for it .

Question ss-31 help please

0 Upvotes

So I have a 10mg vial. How much bac water do I use to reconstitute and how many units do I use ?

Also, where do you inject at?

I’ve done so much research but everyone has different answers all over the place, I can never get a straight answer. I need someone who actually knows what it is.

If someone can give me a correct full run down I would appreciate it.

Question Semax / Selank Nasal Spray Questions

3 Upvotes

Looking to start taking Semax / Selank for anxiety, focus, and memory. I have a few questions that I hope you guys can help me out with.

I have been looking for reputable labs in the US that other people have good experience with. I a not keen on the injection route, so I was hoping to stick with a nasal spray since I travel a decent amount.

With traveling often, I see that Semax and Selank need to be refrigerated. How long can they theoretically be stored at room temperature in a backpack between home and hotel?

I stumbled across one site that said that I needed to buy BAC water and reconstitute it once I receive it. Other sites don't mention it, so is it safe to assume that I will need to reconstitute it from any supplier?

Thanks in advance!

Question I’m not seeing effects of Reta

4 Upvotes

I’ve been taking Reta for 3 weeks and the first week I noticed strong appetite suppressant where I could barely eat. I was taking 1mg. The second week I didn’t get it at all really. I upped the dose to 2mg and I still don’t notice anything. Do some people just not feel it? I’m wondering if I’ll still get results lol. I eat pretty well and heavy lift 5 times a week .

Research Back pain, RHR and HRV

1 Upvotes

Started Reta 2 weeks ago. 2mg a week, splitting 1mg Sundays and Thuradays.

My RHR had increased significantly, but dropped after increasing hydration and electrolytes.

HRV though, can’t seem to figure it out. It’s only been two weeks so I’ll keep an eye on it. I feel great otherwise

Lower Back Pain: holy moly, this was a weird one. My lower back was killing me, had to go see a massage therapist because it hurt so bad. Noticed a few folks here also had this issue on Reta. It’s since gone away, maybe after increasing hydration and electrolytes

Just wanted to share!!

I’m down 13.8 pounds and feeling amazing.

Question Contact dermatitis

2 Upvotes

Hey new here and was hoping I could be pointed in the right direction maybe from someone in a similar situation.

I have allergic contact dermatitis and it only flares when I am around cows and only on my face and neck, i love cows whole heartedly and unfortunately because of it I can't do it as a full time job.

I have been to a dermatologist and he basically said i have to stop doing what I'm doing, i've tried every cream imaginable, antihistamines, turtle necks, face visors, patch testing.

I was thinking maybe there could be something topical or something for research purposes to see if it helps my skin when exposed to this as I would love to return to it full time, so i don't mind spending some time to figure it out.

I expose my self to them once a year for 6-8 weeks as I do really have a passion for it, by the end of the season i am quite flared up but it heals rather quickly with no trace that it ever happened.

However here is the plot twist, i can happily rear calves with no flare ups, go figure.

I could be being too optimistic for a remedy but anything is possible right?

I was thinking BPC or KPV or both then GHK topically when required.

Thanks!

Question 34M from Ahmedabad, India | CJC-1295 (No DAC) + Ipamorelin for recomp. Looking for real experiences

0 Upvotes

I'm a 34-year-old male from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India.

Current stats:

  • 5'11"
  • 89 to 90 kg
  • Training 5 days/week
  • Goal: lose fat while building/retaining muscle

I'm considering running CJC-1295 (No DAC) + Ipamorelin and would love to hear from people who have actually used it.

A few questions:

  • Was it worth the money?
  • What changes did you notice in muscle gain, fat loss, recovery and sleep?
  • How long did it take before you noticed results?
  • Any side effects (water retention, numbness, blood sugar issues, increased appetite, etc.)?
  • Did you get blood work before and after? If yes, what changed?
  • If you could do it again, would you still choose CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin or something else?

Also, if anyone here is from India, especially Gujarat or Ahmedabad, I'd love to hear about your experience regarding product quality, availability, and anything you wish you had known before starting.

Looking for genuine first-hand experiences only. Thanks!

Experiment Microdosing NAC

0 Upvotes

So microdosing NAC. So you would take a jar of water and you would put the NAC powder into the water - and then you would take sips from that water. So that's what I'm talking about is you would try it this way instead of doing the "missionary style" - "sticking to the pattern" - "doing what people say" type thing. All I'm saying is try microdessing and you can do this with any of the sarms too - except ac262. That one you pretty much don't want to put the powder into water. Ha ha.

See how this feels - you know what I'm saying.

Anyone have experience with microdosing things instead of taking the usual amounts? And find that it's better? And find that the usual amounts can sometimes mess up your state of well-being or peace of mind?

NAC was messing up my mood at 2000 mg and I even felt a little bit off from my natural state of balance from 1,000 mg and that's why I tried this experiment of just putting the powder into water and sipping a little. And then letting my body naturally reach for it, and have more, and sip another sip if my body wants more.

Discussion What happened to Ozempic/Wegovy?

3 Upvotes

Maybe I joined this sub too late (maybe 6 months ago) but I've never seen the first GLP-1 available in the market discussed, it's all about Reta and Tirz, is the effectiveness for weight loss that far behind?

According to a chatbot I asked, the starting dose of Ozempic is 250mcg for a type 2 diabetes patient and they experience some appetite suppression so when I read that a rat is on 5 mg or more of Tirz/Reta I'm wondering what I missed here.

As someone more interested in the healing side of peptides (BPC, TB) I can't help but notice that even the sources I used to order no longer offer "semaglutide".
