Klotho / FLGR242 (albumin-bound new tech)
-
Well, I’ve been looking into FLGR-242 since I first heard about it about a month ago while scrolling through YouTube videos. I was intrigued, but reading through this thread finally pushed me over the edge, and I took advantage of the Labor Day sale on BLL.
I feel like I’m stepping into territory I’m not very familiar with, though. Looking at the cakes in each vial, I noticed they seem pretty crumbly, which isn’t something I’m used to seeing with peptides.
So I wanted to ask those in the community who have been researching with FLGR-242: is this normal for this product? Is a crumbly-looking cake typical for FLGR-242, or should I be concerned about what I’m seeing?
Especially considering how much these cost per vial, I figured it was worth asking. This is normally way too rich for my blood! I’m definitely not used to spending this much on a single vial.

From my understanding crumpled cakes is just a visual thing and nothing to be concerned about. As long as it reconstitutes clear you are good to go. If you have flakes or cloudiness AFTER reconstituting then you have an issue. So you are good to go with these vials you just posted.

@stevencarter Do you have another reliable source for injectable bioregulators? I'm a big fan of them and, like you, believe BLL's prices are insane for those. Only buy when they have their 50% off sales with an affiliate code that makes it 65% off.

Day 1 - Started the research first dose of Slim Assist on my Lab Rat....Mike at about 10:30 AM Today.
Diluted with 0.8ml of Hospira
First dose seemed to have gone smoothly. Mike did not complain of any site reactions or discomfort etc....his next dose will be 1mg next Tuesday.
Mike the Rat worked out shortly after his first research dose.
As one might expect, nothing of note happened.

I don't know if I should be concerned or happy, but today I took my 4th shot of Slim Assist (FLGR-242 2mg) and I haven't really been lifting much in the past week either as I have been traveling. Yet every time I take a shot, that day my veins really start to bulge. I love the look of it, but is this healthy? If I was at least lifting hard, I can chalk it up to that. But like I said, I'm not really lifting much right now.
-
I’ve travelled all year thru my journey and my recommendation especially taking FLGR is to find a gym in the hotel or go get day passes in the local gyms, i rarely miss a day, thats how you see progress.
Worst case burpies, pushups and look online for exercises to do.

@denti do you feel any swelling, water retention in the arms?
No Bob not feeling anything of the sorts. In the 4 shots I’ve taken so far, I went from hardly any veins being visible to now them being very noticeable. Again I like it, but concern me a bit and it’s not like I’ve gotten leaner during this duration. In fact I’ve put on some weight. Yet veins are becoming more visible.

Same here. I’m on week 2, and I haven’t really noticed anything except I’m crazy vascular now. And I’ve never really been before. I’m down 76lbs year to date so the vascularity is relatively new to me but FLGR has taken it to the next level. Especially in the gym, where I am lifting heavy 4-5 times per week. I totally agree that it’s awesome but also slightly concerned that it is indeed healthy. I had a full battery of blood tests as well as a Dexa scan the week before I started, and I plan to recheck bloods every month and another Dexa in 3 months.

@MacLeeezy Keep me posted if you see anything stand out in your bloodwork please.

@diegoc started gh about 2.5 slowly pushing toward 3.0, swapped in for 2.0 tesa .3 ipa. no other changes to protocol.
-
@diegoc the pumps are definitely on another level. Ive been running inbody too regularly and theres positive movement on those readings as well.

PeptidePete AHHHH excellent information. Doesn't matter what it is, but HAVE keep learning - all day every day. I'm 63 but as much as I've learned about my body and peptides over the last 6 month, I'm still a young pup as far as knowledge. So much to learn - I think even the most learned people here (you being one) always still have much to learn. What a fun challenge it is to take on - learning.
Sincerely thanks much - long and happy life to you - and all!

@vpep Yep, I am sure that most people buying SlimAssist were buying it as an arbitrage on the price of FLGR and don’t give a hoot about the vitamin B. And the BLL people are probably smart enough to know that.

Exactly. The ONLY reason to buy it.
BLL has some interesting products in the pipeline, Slim Assist did not sell at the volumes they expected, it is expensive to produce, and they have massive upcoming expense for the TB4/GH Albumin-bound products. Ergo- you blow out the dogs to make room for the new stuff.
As a business owner, I understand this in crystal clear fashion.
Their loss was my gain to buy at $16 or whatever per vial to get the FLGR. I could care less about b-vits as water soluble and you just urinate excess out.

Just went for monthly labs blood draw today, I'll update thread when I have them back. Primarily interested to see if I have fixed my ferritin levels, and, effects if any from every 9 day dosing of Klotho on any blood markers (Serum Phosphorus/eGFR/Cystatin C). I feel phenomenal.
Vial pucks, lyophilized peptides- IT'S COSMETIC ONLY. Please for the love of all that is good, the visual appearance of the puck is of ZERO significance. The SIZE of the puck DOES NOT MATTER. Let it go. Live free and without worry! Same goes for the vial not having a vacuum, it does not matter.
Shaking peptides- IT DOES NOT DAMAGE THEM AT ALL PERIOD. There is no question or discussion needed. Shake the ever loving shit out of your reconstituted vials! Aim your reconstitution BAC water stream with firehose force on the puck! Watch the Peter Magic/ Janoshik videos. Dear God let's put this ancient old wives tales to rest once and for all. (including GH)
The one and only exception I am aware of: Cell Factors. Truly fragile and never use BAC, only sterile water.
I enjoy seeing the initial and prelim reports of FLGR, remember as I have repeatedly noted, it takes 3, 4, 5 good high-dose months for the magic to bloom. Except for the vascularity magic...lol which as noted comes on fast. Those who are worried by that, do your homework on exactly what vascularity is and what causes it. If you desire to not have a world class circulatory system, then be worried and stop FLGR immediately. How the hell else is your body going to transport nutrients and oxygen to support the newfound growth signal? Think this through, body is smart not stupid.
PS- I need to take a photo or two after I get out of the sauna, my arms, legs, abdomen appear built from a MASSIVE LATTICEWORK of blood vessels. Just nuts. I assure the reader that never in my 65 year life have I ever looked like this. Like a different species of human is no exaggeration. I've never appreciated just how metabolically fucked up 95% of people now are. I am not a body-builder, I have never been in a gym, to be clear. Currently steady at 14-15% body fat, I am never hungry. No veg, sugars, fruit, grains. Only fatty ruminant meats, butter, eggs, selected seafoods, fermented veg, and limited dairy. Going on four years now.

Quick follow-up on the new Kimera Chems Na Salt-form O-304. It's potent, I'm quite fine on 50-100mg of it vs 400-600mg of the free-acid versions being sold by EVERYONE else. Homework is your friend, once again.
The 5-Amino-1MQ 50mg tabs from QSC are great, one less ting I have to pin and far more cost effective (cost per mg). No negs that I can discern.
Again do your homework. For those who enjoy him, Nick Norwitz has some thought-provoking papers on both. Check his Substack.
I'd suggest both of these are oriented towards those looking to fine-tune what is already a well optimized regimen and body.
My research with SS-31 at 60mg per day, every day, remains ongoing.
