@Randy said: ive never heard of tirz stinging. Thank you. That is what I wanted to know. I have never taken it and I put my husband on Reta instead. They are only Tirz because they were both getting it from a Med Spa and over paying for it. It does work for them

@mmp I’m at 5mg Tirz and 1.5mg Reta. I went from 202# to 175# and am stuck on way to 165#. I don’t want to increase either the Reta (resting HR increases) and more double tapping GLP-1 and GIP doesn’t make sense. So I’ll drop the Tirz, keep the Reta and add in Elora mainly for food noise and appetite control. Reta kinda sucks at the GLP-1 part of its job with appetite control and food noise, but great GIP for insulin sensitivity and the glucagon benefits.

Im a bit of a data nerd, coming by it honestly as a hazard of my job in engineering. Health/biometrics= Apple watch Ultra 3 and an Oura ring. The only time they aren't on my is when they charge during a shower. Labs=Function Health and Siphox Health, with results getting dumped into my Hermes agent. Measurements = Renpho Morphoscan (like Hume but without the subscription) and Renpho smart tape measure. Dose tracking = Peptide Tracker in the app store. I might look for something different. While it is useful, there is no baked in "export" function and the only way to get this data is to email their support. Protocol Management = Custom built and local Hermes AI Agent called "Pepe" Pep Inventory and order management = Excel (moving to Hermes) Macros = Bevel Health Data Path = Wearables>Apple Health+Bevel Health>Hermes = Measurements>export>Bevel Health+Hermes Agent (I do this every Sunday morning and feed it into AI, then track progress and overlay my dosing schedule/changes for correlation. A.I. use = I use Bevel for daily metrics feedback, but lean heavy into another custom Hermes agent specifically built for health tracking, and completely separate from my peptide agent. I typically run Bevel "intelligence" against my Hermes agent separately, as a double check. Bevel is great for some things and has HUGE potential, buy my god is it buggy and the built in "AI" is trash.

@MacLeeezy I don't know what you're pinning at high volume but if it stings, you MIGHT be able to use NaCl BAC & reduce that volume. Just a thought. (I have those occasionally.)

It’s almost certainly contracted out, the same as most beer and other stuff is. The capital costs to do it in house are prohibitive*, and keep in mind that the vast majority of peptide vendors are resellers operating out of a storage facility or mailboxes etc - regardless of how slick their web site is. Assuming you want to sell actual bac water, (insert concerns about maintaining sterility while personally decanting bac water in your spare bedroom).

@Snake-Pepskin very much agree, I feel oxytocin in a subtle way. It can lower cortisol levels which can be hard to feel. Oxytocin nasal spray has been used for autism also. I also don't like the pt in nasal form

@Mydogdaryl423 How did you already know we were running one?

@Stevepep said: Somehow the rubber stopper got crooked, and it was stuck, so I just pressed harder I sometimes have the same thing happen and once the innards of pen, as well as the cartridge, launched across the room. I now give a little push to the back of the cartridge piston to get it past that initial stick-tion. This seems to work.

@mrjoshua44 said: @mmp Yes I do. What is the reasoning? The gloves dont come sterile. Are you washing the gloves?

@ResearchCat LLM tools as well as people on other pep forums (not compounded tirz Subrs) said there's definite molecule fracture that will cause loss of efficacy with freezing and thawing due to the way water behaves. Lyophilization isn't comparable. Worthwhile to run an experiment. Compounded T Redditters claim to do it, but all claims are anecdotal like 'they FELT the same ', no one has a proof with a COA.

My insurance pays for it. My Dr. was one of the 1st to treat HIV & Lyme and goes through all that.

My red fox has never felt anything from GHK. He’s gotten GHK from multiple sources, some with overfills and has only ever reconstituted with 3ml of BAC and he usually pushes 2.5mg. This was not what I expected because he’s a red fox. He’s got really fair skin. But it doesn’t bother him at all.

When I do it - I just pull the full 3ml from the source vials- then push 1ml into each pen cartridge- then fill each cartridge with whatever extra volume of BAC you want/need. I’ve got 10 & 20ml vials but I found you just end up double handling everything and I don’t use them.

@Americanchild thank you

@queeny You won’t get lost. Unlike a lot of people in this space, Jeff’s videos tell you what they are about, and then tell you. They don’t ramble for 20 minutes about the “Peptide Secret Everybody is Wrong About!(Watch till the end for the 5 seconds where I tell you!)”

@Sunshine-day I'm looking for the same thing right now. I found the lyophilized powder listed on a site called Core Power Peptides but I have no idea if they are legit or not. There are a handful of sites listing the oral version, which is more common it seems. Don't know if you were successful in finding i tor not, but I would like to hear either way.

I had a similar question with some vials not having a vaccum. I asked the store and they replied To put your mind at ease: not all vials are vacuum-sealed. This varies by manufacturer and fill process. Some lyophilized products are backfilled with an inert gas rather than sealed under vacuum, so the absence of a vacuum is a normal characteristic of the fill method and is not an indicator of degradation or contamination. another store said That batch was Nitrogen sealed.
