unrelated but does tesamorelin need the same cold chain care as the GLP-1s

Highlights from this day
- LC_MS_Lena — coming back to this if youre going to run something, run it long enough and alone, otherwise dont bother logging it 10:55
- void_volume — tesamorelin was the only one where i could point at a measured change rather than a feeling 11:50
- sasha_stacks — the scepticism here is because the evidence is thin, not because people are being difficult, not advice obviously 11:53
- blind_submit — ran GHK-Cu for 18 weeks and stopped because i couldnt tell, which is a result of a kind 13:32
- blind_submit — VendorInvestigate came back 99.4 on a GGPeps lot, which tells you whats in the vial and nothing about whether it works 13:59
BPC-157 human evidence is close to absent, the rodent work is extensive and thats a different thing
ok so how do people test purity on these, does PeptideMeter even take them
placebo maybe
genuine question no long term human safety data for most of these, which is the sentence people skip past
i was confident BPC did something for my elbow and a year later im not, injuries resolve
baseline month helped
did nothing for me
cold chain matters for anything reconstituted whatever it is, mine live at 4 degrees, ill dig out the number
is stacking three things at once ever defensible
coming back to this the honest split is that some of these have licensed uses and some have a reputation and nothing else
verification channel has some
update on the earlier thing is the tendon stuff anecdote or is there something behind it
anyone got a before and after on GHK-Cu that isnt just lighting
stacked, learned nothing
GHK-Cu did something to my skin texture and i cannot rule out that it was the moisturiser
injuries heal anyway

i think most of what gets reported here is regression to the mean, my own reports included
came back after 19 months off and my baseline was where it was before, so nothing persisted
ran one thing at a time for 7 years and ended up with three conclusions, two of them boring
TB-500 did nothing for me over 14 weeks and i stand by that a year later, take that with a pinch of salt
coming back to this if youre going to run something, run it long enough and alone, otherwise dont bother logging it

*Janoshik not the other one
changed my mind on stacking, i used to defend it and now i think it just makes a log unreadable
secretagogues made me ravenous, which is a fairly direct signal that something was happening
cant tell honestly
sceptical but curious
oral BPC is a different question from injected and the two get discussed as if theyre the same
anyone run TB-500 on its own rather than stacked with something
get it tested
tesamorelin was the only one where i could point at a measured change rather than a feeling

one thing at a time
the labs will run purity on most of these, its identity and content, not efficacy, someone check my working
my shoulder got better on BPC and it also got better across six weeks of rest i took at the same time
[edited]evidence is thin
no human data
ran it alone
tesamorelin has a licensed indication and everything outside it is us extrapolating
ok so reconstituted 30 in 1.5ml and it stayed clear for the whole vial, which is the low bar we work with
is there any human data on BPC-157 or is it all rodent work
rodent data only
ran GHK-Cu for 18 weeks and stopped because i couldnt tell, which is a result of a kind

the secretagogue effect faded for me after about 17 months and never came back

VendorInvestigate came back 99.4 on a GGPeps lot, which tells you whats in the vial and nothing about whether it works
the tendon claims trace back to a small number of animal studies that get cited well past what they support

ran TB-500 alone for 12 weeks specifically so i could attribute anything that happened
one variable at a time or you learn nothing, which is unpopular in a channel full of stacks
i think most of what gets reported here is regression to the mean, my own reports included
i stacked three things for 2 months and the honest conclusion is that i learned nothing
