Peptide Critic Community

Ok, this is my journey. I hope this helps people not make the same mistakes.

Pre Peptide Critic: Newbie who didn't know sh*t

Pure Labe Peptides - Fake COA's. Fake carbon copy of Hospira. Bad reaction over a week of pain

Peptide Solutions - Felt nothing from the products Reta included. Fake COA's

Found Peptide Critic - Everything Changed

Mile High - Great Products, but has Kovera labs on some
Glacier - Also Great but all Kovera
Southern Amino - Great, my go-to for what EZ doesn't carry
EZ and Nexaph - My absolute go-to. Pricing and product consistency are top-notch
Crush - High hopes, but their inventory control is a joke, and the constant marketing ploys have turned me off. Products are good, though.

Grey
LN and LI Peptide - Great until they ripped everyone off
GroupBuyKits - waiting for the first order, but Randy says no go and that's enough for me

Lets all share!!!! and help more people

I posted this on another thread but thought it deserved its own. There are a lot of scammers selling Hospira fake BAC. I am attaching photos. Look for the hologram and the white ink on a black label. Otherwise it’s fake and please don’t use it. Your rat may have a bad reaction. It’s not fun

@pep_researcher Yup gotta give them credit, they know how to stir things up and get the frenzy going. Probably have a bunch of inventory to move

Hospira isn't this dumb if they ever raised the price 65pct a new market will emerge. Welcome, Lambda and others. My spidey sense says here we go again.

The fear and scarcity tactics we have all fallen for let's discuss where we are.

• Hospira is going away; prices are going up 30-40pct order now while supplies last. - Remember that one? Peptide test has had it at the same price for a year now after the email. Just saw it for $10 it sold out in hours. There are now group buys to get it. It's more available than ever.

-KPV- getting banned in China. This caused a purchasing frenzy. It's still available

-Reta- Lilly lawsuit, it's gonna be gone- Let the hoarding begin. Literally no impact other than some name changes

• Drops, Sales, Pre Sales, who can keep up, get in on them now, prices are going up. It's a weekly occurrence, and the deals happen all the time. Miss this one, and in a matter of weeks there is another.

-Customs crack down- it's been the same for over a year. Nothing has changed. They intercept 10- 20%. Factories are opening up in many countries now, which will loosen things up.

We are easy marks; the more we fall for it, the more we will see these tactics play out. Take deep breaths and don't fall for every ploy. I need to keep telling myself that. My freezer is full because of it.

No need to do this but as a public service I ordered Parrox, Lambda and have hospira, I am going to have my guys test them against each other for ph. TDS, Brix and put them all under a high powered microscope to see if there is any particulate matter or micro organisms. We have lab grade equipment in a sanitary environment. I will constitute the lambda in GHK-CU and see what happens. Since someone said it turned it to sludge. Give me about a week. I will take lots of photos so there are receipts. So sick of the Hospira is some miracle solution so let’s see what happens.

The absolute number one resource is right here on Peptide Critic. This community is amazing. game-changing in my life and health Journey.

A couple of Ads.

Blood Work -

Rythm - terrific for metabolic markers and to keep track of how you are doing and if stuff is working.
Ulta Lab Works - Found right here on peptide critic under tools. Highly recommend both. Just got my first full panel done. Super easy.

• You can do metabolic markers at Ulta, and it's as needed. Rhythm is a monthly subscription. Rhythm is simple if you don't know what to order.

Bottom line: Every single blood marker on my full panel was in range. Not one out of range. A drastic improvement from 18 months ago. I am shocked and amazed. On the metabolic side, when I started, I had 8 markers out of range, and I am down to one Estrogen (am I turning into a woman?), which I am still trying to figure out. Doc says it could be stress (F'in job) or not enough recovery from my workouts, or both.

Night two, amazing sleep. Pinealon is becoming a favorite. 1 and 1.5 did nothing for me. 2mg for the win. My wife, who complains I snore, said no snoring both nights. Peptide life is amazing. I am in the best shape of my life, no aches and pains. Run 10 miles a week, lift 4 days a week. Life could not be better. Thanks to @randy and this community. Now I just need to live forever I am working on it.

If you are pushing the plunger up you are exposing the cartridge to contaminants and then adding your peptide this is not a good idea. You basically are taking a sanitized cartridge and making it unsanitary.

@Randy there’s that. When he said I know the most about peptides and I only use two I just laughed and said peace out. Lots of misinformation as well. I stopped watching him a while ago.

@Sunshine_day Crush is fine; their inventory blows, and waiting for them to build hysteria around a sale or drop that half the time turns into a nothing burger has turned me off. Add in ILS and while I'll just take Nexaph at the moment- cheaper, proven, inventory, janoshik. Boxes checked. That 25pct sale was killer; hope they do that again.

@ResearchCat it gets added in at checkout ask me how I know. Please make me stop. It just feels like the one dependable place to purchase right now. I know there are others but I just can’t mess around with COA’s from ILS and Freedom then add in a bunch of unknown labs might as well just stab in the dark. I want to jump in on the crush presale but I am just to risk averse to mess around to save a couple bucks.

I spoke to a medical Rep this morning. Yes, the expiration date is very meaningful. Not just due to the alcohol breaking down. Even mild degradation breaks down the plastic container and increases microplastics and that is the primary concern. There is a low level of microplastics present pre expiration but post the break down happens rapidly. I know people don’t want to hear it but there it is. Injecting micro plastics into your rat is not good expecially at higher levels that occur in long term storage. Hospira has done the testing and that’s why the expiration isn’t 24 months or longer.i

@Nuncles yes from pure lab peptides which was recommended from peptidedosages so I figured it was safe. I ended up with flu like systems I couldn’t get my head off the pillow for 2 days and an ISR that turned into a wound. I contacted them and they said it’s for research only. The good news is @randy called them out for their fake COA’s and I found this community.

If someone is buying a product for research only with a Freedom COA all of the information has been given to you in this group that it can’t be trusted. You have no one to blame but yourself if you end up having an adverse reaction. IMO you want to control what you can we can’t control the manufacturing but we can verify a COA and make sure it’s from a trustworthy lab if not get it tested ourselves. Otherwise you have lost control and you are taking a very unnecessary risk which could have severe consequences.

@richardharris I asked AI to respond and it said: go to peptide critic and look at the vendor listings

@vpeptides Just think about that: if scarcity and crackdowns were coming, why would you discount inventory when you are worried you can't get more? It never made sense. If anything, you mark it up and maximize your return, not dump it. You dump to move inventory and get new inventory or move products that aren't selling.

Good stuff

@pep_researcher she is one of few people I can tolerate on YouTube. It’s a cess pool otherwise.

@krisacero my first print this is amazing and perfect.

@BeeKind the good news is the honesty all around from Janoshik and Nexaph at least that’s how I look it

@Randy I have given up on grey by the time you factor in the cost of testing it’s better to just go with Nexaph.
