Finnricks “grading” is what’s BS. Their supplied resulting data seems to be a ok. Someone recently posted results from a peptide batch that was ran two months after third party group testing, it tested 6% lower (93%) than prior. We don’t know how that peptide vial was handled during them two months so the information from that test needed to be taken as a grain of salt. The same batch tested at 99.9 with Finn and 99.7 with Jano.

It was more that I started taking compound tirzepatide($500/month) and as I researched various supplements and longevity treatments, I became aware that there were clinics prescribing things like sermorelin and Wolverine stack($400/vial) and started watching videos and reading everything I could find on the topic. This led me to Peptide Sciences(RIP) and a couple other vendors, and eventually to EZ and Nexaph. The big leap for me was getting the comfort level of going from compound/T clinic supplies to various web sites. Here is a fun exercise: Has your compounding pharmacy or T Clinic (or whoever) selling you retail priced reconstituted peptides ever given you a COA? My advice is to go slow and start conservatively. In the GLP space in particular, bad math and incorrect doses can lead to illness much more so than some of the other peps, where taking too much doesn’t really do anything noticeable.

I stay away from anything like that… so many TG server admins deleting any post that goes against the vendor or host, they claim anything bad is false and you are just there to cause trouble.. so they delete your posts. Oh wait, that just happened not more than a week ago with the LN TG group.. and asshole admins like Drastic were deleting posts of anyone that was concerned because they were getting bogus tracking numbers and stuff wasn’t being shipped. Then Bam, Tuesday morning all of LN staff disappeared after taking thousands of dollars in payments the night before knowing they were closing shop.. and then Bam the admins TG accounts disappeared too…

I have the Tesa/Ipa blend. Doing it for visceral fat reduction. I had GH before, but it was making my hands go numb at 2iu a night. But I really never took it for more than a week because it was to inconvenient (didn’t know about the Pens back then). I wondered if the CJC/Ipa would be just as good as the Tesa/Ipa. I only take 1mg of the Tesa/Ipa 5 nights on 2 nights off.

@cjbuckshot said in BPC-157 efficacy on chronic injury?: @WisGal64 thanks I will look into the gel…I’ve been to a few different doctors/specialists and none of them have even mentioned it. Luckily it is not debilitating at this point. Another one to consider, have you looked at Cartalax? This one is very interesting, one of my lab rats has rotator cuff issues, facing a complete should replacement. Added Cartalax to the BP/TB, improvement was seen with the BP/TB but adding the Cartalax, it's enhanced the whole healing process after 2 cycles. Mentioned this to Doc, and he's very interested to learn more about it. Next appointment will be interesting.

Id start following the phase 3 trial guidelines. Some will say you can start higher but you will likely experience the skin sensitivity that way. Another option is to add cag or maz/survo for the "ghetto reta" stack (my favorite).

@jlaz143 Yeah! My focus came off of food and alcohol to my wife! Now that I lost 20lbs of fat and gained 7lbs of muscle she says “ you think you are like the last cookie in the cookie jar”. It’s a Brazilian expression…Life changing for me!

@gym.rat Dang that sucks. I guess that is why we all must do our own research. Everyone gets a different outcome and degrees of outcome.

@TrueNorth that's why you should always filter peps. how do you know if the problem is with the MOTS-c or the BAC water? use Hospira BAC and if it's still cloudy it's the MOTS-c. if it's clear then the problem was with your China sourced BAC water.

I’m looking at researching the Glow blend, my question is I have server inflammation in my nose aiding in my sleep apnea. With the anti-inflammatory properties of the blend do you think it will open up my air passages?

Anyone have good sourcing for injectable CoQ10?

Any research that KPV has long term healing and reduced inflammation, where there is eventually no need for it or just a few times a week?

I think it’s 20% and an extra 10% with an influencer discount code. They posted the code EASTER26 that also gives the extra 10% if you don’t have an influencer you want to support. [image: 1775436429529-collage_export_5e2f35b2-935a-459b-9eff-cbb5a0f5a73e-resized.jpeg]

I started at 3mg with with the intention of ending up at 4mg, so that was my plan to gradually move up. I'm on Day 2, so take that for what it's worth, but I have no stinging sensation that others talk about with GLOW or GHK-CU. This is supposed to be due to the anti-inflammation properties of KPV. If I had it to do over, I'd use a 5ml vial and add a total of 4ml of BAC so the units are slightly higher. For some reason, it seems like there is more resistance than I antipicated to push with my pen. The concentration of the solution may be a little viscous for an 11unit push. Thinning it out with a little more BAC could help.

Apparently, Lilly recommends throwing out your used/opened Tirzepatide pen after 30 days. How should the Mounjaro (tirzepatide) KwikPen be stored? Store an unused KwikPen in the refrigerator between 2ºC – 8ºC. Protect the medicine from light and do not freeze. After first use, patients may store their pen at room temperature up to 30 °C and dispose of it after 30 days. What are the recommended storage conditions? Store in a refrigerator (2 ºC – 8 ºC). Do not freeze.1 After first use, Mounjaro may be stored unrefrigerated for up to 30 days at a temperature not above 30ºC and then the pre-filled KwikPen must be discarded.1 An in-use KwikPen2 must NOT be stored with the needle attached, to prevent leaking, blocking the needle and air entering the pen. must be stored with the pen cap attached. The pre-filled KwikPen must be discarded after 4 weekly doses and must not be used more than 30 days after the first use.2 How should wholesalers, HCPs and pharmacies store Mounjaro KwikPen? Before first use, Mounjaro must be kept between 2°C and 8°C.1 The 30-day room temperature exposure allowance refers to the used pen, and wholesalers, distribution Centers, HCPs and pharmacies cannot use any part of this allowance.1 How should patients store the Mounjaro KwikPen in use when the room temperature is above 30°C? Once in use, the Mounjaro KwikPen can be stored at room temperature up to 30°C for up to 30 days. Patients should take the steps necessary to ensure that the Mounjaro KwikPen is not exposed to temperatures above 30°C during this time.3 If during the 30 day in use period, the Mounjaro KwikPen has been placed in the refrigerator, the patient may continue to use the KwikPen. Lilly has data to support that cycling the Mounjaro KwikPen between refrigerated conditions and room temperature conditions does not impact product quality during the 30 day in-use period.3 The Mounjaro KwikPen should never be stored with the pen needle attached. Storing the KwikPen with a needle attached may induce the formation of air bubble(s), which may affect dose accuracy.3 Throw away the KwikPen 30 days after first use, even though it has medication left in it.4 What is the shelf life of Mounjaro KwikPen? The shelf life is 24 months.1 How to interpret the expiry date on the package? The expiry date is stated on the pen label and on the carton after EXP. The expiry date refers to the last day of that month.4

@jake_peptron Interesting idea!

I’ve been using EZ Pep and Nexaph Glow/Klow for several months and am very happy with the results. Planning to order more Klow soon. Not that worried about it. I have bought a bunch of peps from them and have been happy with the concentration and purity, so this falls into an extension of confidence for me.

About to make the switch to Reta after using Mounjaro 15mg 1x per week. What would be a proper dosage as a starting point with Reta?
