PX Peptides User Review: Like the Costco of Peptides -
Oros Research User Review: First class quality, descent discounts, but still a bit priceyThis company has been on my radar. But very little info through RUO communities and they are not on any vetted vendor lists, so I'm cautious. Their prices seemed much higher than even some of the more expensive vendors I have shopped with.

Any fans of Josh Holyfield and his ZestyRat brand?@mrjoshua44 I know someone else who was a critical voice on Josh's forum who got kicked out.

Some of these Skool groups are like kindergarten classes. The admins are worshipped like Gods and they don't allow any critical discussion of labs, their affiliate vendors, or themselves.
I was active on Derek's forum until some time back when he put his classroom behind paywall and started dumping AI generated posts round the clock along with his co-admin, suppressed any discussion of testing lab chaos, especially Kovera and ILS that almost every vendor on his site jumped to.
That's when I started reading more here and found much better topics than round the clock AI dumps from admins.

My Recent Southern Aminos Order Makes Them Fall From Grace -
My Recent Southern Aminos Order Makes Them Fall From GraceDidn't read the whole thread. Don't remember if it was you or someone else who also posted a bad experience before. I replied on that thread with my own disappointing experience with their COA and batch ID mismanagement.
Plus I read someone else's experience on another forum where Southern Aminos blocked the customer account for escalating order issues. Yeah they are mismanaged and yet high handed, a very dangerous combination in RUO space.

MOTS-C research reaction ISR@mmp It's all good now. I moved
research site back to its fatty regions and no more ISRs.The previous ISR site took about a week to recover and look normal, but
didn't have to take any more antihistamines. -
Half truths and half lies@Stevepep Hehe
What's weird about people commenting in his support is that they seem to unilaterally designate anyone in support of peptides as antivaxxer. Which is NOT the case.
I'm not fully aware of the COVID vaccine controversy in the US, I was outside the US during that time but I got two shots myself and the govt in that country then STOPPED. No more COVID vaccines.
But in the US they are still shooting people with that juice 6 yrs later? WHYYYYY?
Countries like India which were the worst hit ones during the second wave in 2021, stopped after 2 shots and haven't had any outbreak since. India is top among the COVID death toll. The govt denies real numbers but journalists investigated and it's in the range of 4-5 million. Yet now there's no outbreak and no one's dying from COVID without continuing vaccine.

Nexaph testing@mikebricker Nexaph is switching to full testing on all batches post after mid June. It's posted on their TG clearly.

Half truths and half lies@MyB ROTFL people are brilliant!

I reported him as misinformation too. We all should do. This guy is a disease. He looks handsome and mild mannered but he's a big pharma lackey.

Amazon supplieshas to be California
No. CA doesn't have any laws preventing bulk purchase without prescription, NY/NJ do. Know it first hand as CA resident.
Portals like ADWdiabetes ship to CA, but they restrict NY/NJ. Some Amazon sellers have put CA in the same bucket quite idiotically.
Are you saying you bought branded stuff like EasyTouch from Amazon shipped to CA, NY addresses or non branded Chinese bulk?

Half truths and half lies@Mydogdaryl423 I have seen this doctor's other content too. He's an as*hole skilled in presenting only partial facts that serve his bias. He's a big pharma mouthpiece who's afraid to see people taking agency of their own health with informed choices.
OTOH, if you consider others like Dr Alex Tatem, Dr Kevin Joseph, Dr Nick Norwitz, Dave Asprey, their commentary is balanced presenting all facts and full disclosure of any conflict of interests.

Nexaph testingMade me think how many people for a good deal just don’t care and are willing to look the other way. Dangerous shit. It just takes one time and the perspective completely changes
I once upon a time valued Freedom COA as gold standard.
I have some stock of Reta and Survo with Freedom COA. I'm just going to take the gamble in my research assuming the original pep isn't trash. Otherwise it's a big loss for me.Peptira and S1 use Freedom only. Southern Aminos used them a lot too. After I started reading Peptide Critic forum, I "grew up" to look critically at vendors, labs, and COAs.
I said to someone — between Nexaph Janoshik COA without endotoxin results and a US reseller with full panel Freedom, ILS, or Kovera COA, I will pick Nexaph.
-
Half truths and half liesThis doctor conveniently hides important facts and only present the other half of facts convenient to support his claims — confirmation bias!
-
Nexaph testing@Randy Nexaph has openly posted both the COAs on their Tesa latest batch page.
I appreciate Nexaph's transparency although this raises questions on Freedom.

I tracked buyer testing COAs of this on SNP TG group. It was done at Jano and results are same as previous Jano COAs. So how did Freedom gave 99% purity rating?
-
Nexaph testingI have a sizable stock in my freezer with Freedom COAs bought from US resellers when there were lesser players and Freedom was popular for speed. Now I'm in a huge dilemma.

Beyond the Scale: What Has Reta or Tirz Changed for You?@damic Yeah and without going in RUO details, I've been open about GLP benefits and changes to my diet to the extent of refusing dinner invites if the hosts mock my choices and force me to eat their crap.
I've noticed that some people are genuinely curious and admire, others struggling themselves but who don't want to change, parrot misinformation to cause fear and discouragement... not that I care anyway. I just laugh in my mind thinking "You have NO IDEA what you are missing!"

Amazon suppliesThis is a challenge for those of us who live in restricted states
You can buy from RUO supplies sites that sell BAC water, vials etc. They are more expensive but if you are in states like NY NJ that's the only option. I lived in NY for 5 yrs unaware of this and wasn't into RUO research. But now in the future I would never move there. What a pain.
I'm not sure if sites like Carewell strictly check state laws. Someone mentioned Diamed store too. Try ordering and see.

Beyond the Scale: What Has Reta or Tirz Changed for You?@Juliano546 Yup, not to mention, the money saved on future lifelong prescription meds — statins, insulin, BP meds, the usual American healthcare cocktail.

Beyond the Scale: What Has Reta or Tirz Changed for You?Tirz introduced me to Rita. Quest to possess Rita, opened the wonderful world of peptides that I was completely unaware of, and I met BPC, TB, KPV, Tesa, Survo, Cagri which all caused some dip in my bank balance but I'm sure that was covered by the lowered grocery, restaurant, and dessert bills.
