I’m surprised Josh Holyfield hasn’t been mentioned yet.

@WisGal64 @eleanor For what it’s worth, Lambda BAC is all I’ve researched with since starting this journey back in January (bought several vials from Amazon) and it has been perfect with no issues at all!

@Stevepep suffered from lower back pain (moderate/severe stenosis L4/L5/S1). Initially tried Wolverine blend for 10 weeks with no discernible improvement. Started ARA at 1mg per day M-F and titrated up to 4mg per day M-F. In less than a month my pain went from about a 7 down to a 2. I was finally able to sleep without being awakened by pain when I rolled over at night, and could get out of bed in the morning without pain.

Cycled off after 12 weeks and pain returned around week 3. Started researching again and pain subsided within the week. Current dosage is 2mg per day M-F and this seems to work well for me.

I know Hospira is the gold standard and have since purchased some for future research (some that I already received and some that I’m STILL waiting on from Consumers Choice 2+ months later ). With that said, I began researching with Lambda back in January when I started this journey and have gone through six 30ml vials during this time. Never had an issue of any kind. No abnormal ISR, no gelling with Tesa or ARA, etc. Just my 2 cents as well.

@SkepticJen @nuncles probably an even more wrong answer, but I choose a location I can administer the first dose, hold the pen in place with one hand without removing, turn the dial to get the remaining dose, and then administer the remaining amount. Not ideal I’m sure, but works for me.

@Hammertime65 While I haven’t tried Cartalax (yet), my rat is currently researching 4mg daily of ARA to address lower back pain that has persisted for several years. He is happy to report about a 90% reduction in pain after about 4 weeks. Very happy considering previous BPC/TB protocol yielded no real improvement.

@Commander I say this with the utmost respect. Based on your previous posts, I believe you and I are not nearly as tech savvy as others here. Seeing these labels gives me hope I’ll learn how to make labels when I get the Niimbot M2 I just ordered!

@Juan-Doe from my phone it says the site is password protected with no ability to sign up. Is this correct?

Thank you gentlemen! This was precisely what I needed to hear. I truly value your input and appreciate the community here at Peptide Critic!

@Stan-Douglas Well played sir! Well played!

@WisGal64 no gelling at all. And I’ve learned ARA will be something I research consistently moving forward. Has provided me relief no other peptide has!

@ResearchCat I’ll second that vote! lol

@WisGal64 I think I’m in the same GB. Looking forward to researching with the 5A1MQ for the first time. Heard good things.

@ResearchCat I will 3rd that. No issue refrigerating.

@Shaqdiesel @wisgal64 I got mine on Monday. Also quite warm sitting in the mailbox before I got home. I transferred 3 ml into a pen to see how that works for me. Was also worried about too many punctures in the 20ml vial if I kept going in for single doses. Pinned 25mg yesterday and 50mg today. While I didn’t notice an immediate effect with 25, today I can definitely feel a boost within 10 minutes of pinning. Bordering on jittery. I’ll gauge how I feel throughout the day to determine if I’ll go back down a bit or stay at this dosage.

@Shaqdiesel Yes. Sub Q in the stomach. Absolutely NO issue whatsoever.

@beachfun Thanks! I am nervous about it but hopefully it will be intuitive. I ordered the M2 directly from Niimbot’s website because they had a sale going. Unfortunately it looks like it’s being shipped from China so it might be a week or two before I get it . Looking forward to trying it out though!

Seeking help from the experts here. My rat’s current inventory of peptides is currently being researched, or will be within the next 3-6 months. Is it ok to store these in a cool, dark cabinet prior to reconstitution? Or should they be stored in a container in the freezer? And if in the freezer, should I remove enough vials to last a couple weeks at a time to reduce the amount of times the remaining vials go in and out of the freezer (even if it’s only a minute or two at a time)?

Sorry if this is a dumb question. So much conflicting information out there, and I just want to make sure my rat is taken care of. TIA

New to the peptide world but going down the rabbit hole like so many others. Started my rat's first research cycle in January to help with weight loss and lower back pain. With no clear direction, stacked Reta, MOT-C, and BPC/TB. Rat lost the weight, but lower back pain remained.

Three weeks ago he started his next research cycle to help with building muscle and address back pain with something new. Tesa, CJC/IP, and ARA290. Things going well performance wise so far, but lower back pain remains (albeit generally better). He planned to continue this research for another nine weeks.

With that said, he's also very interested in researching with something to help with brain fog, mental clarity, and focus. He's 56 and not as sharp as he used to be (problem solving, searching for words, memory, etc.). He originally planned to wait until his current research cycle was finished before moving on to something specific for this issue (thinking Semax, Pinealon, and/or Cerebrolysin...also maybe trying Cartalax for the back). However, today he struggled enough mentally that he's not sure he wants to wait that long.

Is he better off waiting until his current research ends before starting a cognitive research cycle? Or is he ok researching these (or other) additional peptides while involved in his current research? Any advice is appreciated. TIA

@brandenscheidecker my wallet damns you for this information. But I thank you! Order placed!
