Puratek Peptides is easily in my top three suppliers for consistency and reliability. Their customer service is excellent, their pricing is fair, and they operate with a level of transparency that is genuinely hard to find in this space.

I read Jeff’s protocol (thanks Jeff), where Randy was testing a daily dose, titrating up to 1mg over a few weeks.

I’ve also seen protocols to inject a higher dose, 5mg every couple of days.

Which is best, small doses daily or large doses 2/3 times a week?

What are people’s opinions/experiences?

Thanks

Review

Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but so be it. Not sure this belongs under "Reviews" but they're asking for a bonafide copy of my DL and a selfie. I'm not giving them copies of my person info. I've not encountered this before and I don't like it. I suspect some vendors will go this route and have gone this route, which means I'll go the opposite way. Be prepared if you want to buy from them. No thanks, eros.

Randy,

I am so excited to see this new offering! I will definitely order some with my next set of pens. But in the interest of consumer safety and transparency, will you be publishing a COA for this new product offering? (I kid!) Seriously, this is awesome.

P.S. We need some Uncle Wang’s Make Abs Awesome T-Shirts.

Has anyone used arcane peptides?

Had an email conversation with a vendor I was thinking of buying NAD+ from, but noticed on label and COA didn't indicate any kind of buffering either. (The COA is excellent otherwise, 1000mg) so, I asked them. Below is the response:

"Thanks I’ll fix the link. Yes the Nad is buffered, it’s much more manageable than most. We recommend 10ml of water dilution and doing it in the hip or butt fat."

Me: "Thank you! I don't understand why the 10ml water and the hip shot if the NAD is buffered? I'm a bit worried now that it might not be as buffered as it needs to be."

"We recommend that dilution and injection site for best absorption and comfort. We sell tons of it, there are no issues. It's nothing like GHK-Cu. This method yields the best results with the 1000mg vials. Have you ever reconstituted NAD before? It's not a typical powder peptide. It dissolves best with maximum water."

Me: "Thank you! Appreciate the info."

I know there's lots of NAD+ folks here. Can someone give me some guidance? The one time I injected this in the glute, I got sick as a dawg. Arf! Never again. Just never heard it takes 10ml H2O to dissolve it. Recipes welcomed!

P.S. They have not corrected the label or description on their site.

I’d like to routinely combine two or three peptides in a 1 cc Luer-lock syringe, using the method shown in Jeff’s excellent video. I tried it today with KPV and GHK-Cu, and it worked perfectly; it also reduced the sting!

My only concern is dead space. I’ve read that the extra volume trapped in a Luer-lock syringe-and-needle setup can range from 0.05 to 0.08 mL. Should I compensate for that loss when calculating the dose, or try to find low deadspace Luer-lock needles? So far, I haven’t found a suitable product or supplier.
Does anyone have a workaround, needle recommendation, or alternative method?

Has anyone used Amino Club for Reta + BAC water (Amino H20)? New to peptides and have seen them mentioned a few times online and wanted to try.

@randy
I can only find excerpts about your love of Pinealon and would like to know what it does for you? Trying to put it all together and don't trust just mere Google explanations, etc. Hoping you will scratch a note in the sawdust to nearest human and let me know. Did you have any side effects? I've got to look through your videos again and see what I can find.

And BTW, how the heck do you pronounce the danged name? Puh-NEY'-a-lon? Never heard it spoken aloud.

Had a question if anyone has made/used Ghk-Cu topical for scalp/hair. I saw that Nexaph sells Ghk-Cu topical/cosmetic ampules and wondered if I could add that to the “Ordinary” brand skin serum (Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 with Ceramides) for scalp/hair… it would basically be the same thing from the PeptideCritic video on topical serum. Has anyone tried it and had any results for hair? What sort of protocol did you try? Any adverse reaction? Didn’t want to accidentally give someone a blue-hair-special. My wife was goin the essential-oil route and I told her I could ask about this to see if topical peptides are worth trying (instead of the snake oil ). Is the pre-mixed stuff as good as diy? Any info would be appreciated.

II'm looking to switch to an injector pen and could use some advice. I travel for a living and am in airports constantly, so a pen seems like it will be more convenient than preloaded syringes. I've never had an issue with TSA and the preloaded syringes, so I'm assuming the same for the pens?

Of the V4, V3.5, and V2, which is the most compact and travel-friendly? My main goal is finding the slimmest option that will fit in a standard insulin travel canister.

I currently use 1 mL 31G 5/16" (8 mm) insulin syringes. What needle size are most people using? Would 32G 4 mm pen needles be suitable for subQ?

Also, where do most people order replacement pen needles, and how long do V4/V3.5 restocks typically take?

Thanks in advance! I'm still learning, so pardon me if some of these are basic questions.

I am new to this. I know @randy recommended one for around $200 to print cases and the desicant containers, maybe even the inserts. I can't find the video. Any help would be great. Thanks.

This should be unlocked. Article is about the growth of the industry, FDA approvals, and how telehealth companies are growing. More…

Seemingly announced on their Facebook page (WTAF again?) I don't do FB so can't see their post. If real and soon to escalate, going to be a public uprising methinks...absolute total fucking bullshit.

"The St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office (based in Opelousas, LA) recently issued a public warning about illegal peptide products (such as tirzepatide, semorelin, and tesamorelin) being obtained online and possessed/distributed without prescriptions. In one of their investigations, officers interviewed one individual (referred to as "the suspect") and seized exactly 498 vials of these peptide products.

100 of the vials were identified as FDA-approved "legend drugs" (prescription-only). The suspect had no prescriptions for them.
The remaining 398 vials are being handled through the normal court process.
The vials were sent to the Acadiana Crime Lab for full analysis, and further action may be taken by narcotics officers depending on the results."

@randy

I might have a problem. I was in a work setting yesterday. One of the people that works there decided to clean a lens on an optical system using IPA. Once he scent reached me, I instantly got a sense of unreasonable excitement. I literally had to overcome the urge to pull my shirt up to find a good injection site.

It's much like Pavlov's Dogs must have felt. Anyone else feel this before, or am I just crazy? Help me!

I know there's a couple of members here that have bought from Plugs and like them. Their prices, in some cases, are substantially lower (kinda of a red flag for me) and the COA's by ILS look righteous. I've already been bitten one time this month; maybe I'm seeing snakes everywhere?

If I could remember who's used them previously that I read about here, I'd address you directly, but I just can't recall at the moment. Please let me know what you've found with them and why you like their products?

Gracias!

Used Ascension Peptides to get some retatrutide and trizepatide. Ordered on a Saturday and came on Thursday. Order, payment was easy. Products works fine. I would order again if the price was right. Overfill on vial, COA has purity and quantity.
