Peptide Q&A · Peptides for Menopause, GLP-1 Side Effects, and More

0:09 Hey everybody, this is Hunter Williams. I hope you're doing amazing wherever you are in the world today is going to be another Q and a video. So the questions have been piling up and thanks to you guys, they are amazing. Um, I have a lot to go through. Actually what I do is, um, anytime you go into the link in my videos, there's a link that says video topic questions or suggestions. That's where you submit your Q&A questions to. And I. An email folder that all those go to, and then it goes into a document.

0:39 that I can then take and then clean up to get the questions out of them so I could answer them in a succinct version in the video. So one, thank you to you guys for submitting those. I know a lot of people can't come on the live calls, so we've been doing a ton of live Q&A calls. Jay and I have, and my fiance Taylor and have been live Q&A calls, but I know that's four hours out of the week that not everybody can make it to those calls. And even if you do the live calls inside of our group, I knew you can't make there. So I have that set up.

1:09 For busy people, if want to hopefully have your question answered, um, do my best to get to all those, at least ones that are relevant. But no question is a dumb question. I actually had a teacher one time that said, there are no stupid Questions, there are only stupid people that don't ask questions. So I guess I'll go with that motto. There are Only stupid People that Don't Ask Questions so no no questions stupid So thank you guys for submitting these I've got 55 today that I want to go through That I have hand-picked out to do so Hopefully I can make all those in the length of the video today so that is listenable and watchable for

1:46 you guys. So I'm just going to pull up this video. I don't share my screens with these cause it's literally just a word document and it would be really hard to get it. And it'd be a lot of work to try to put it into a PowerPoint with like 55 questions. Um, let's just start wrapping through these. Um one thing I've been doing lately is I use chat GPT to basically categorize these questions. So, um, hopefully as I go through this, they're kind of an order of categories. So, you know, as with most things on chat, GPT, it's the end observer that's important, but it does help for kind of like having a mini virtual assistant

2:24 to be able to say, hey, take these questions and then group them so that for my Q&A video, I can answer them in a way that is at least like a semblance of being organized because they all kind come through at random times. Let's jump into it. So first one, first grouping is going to be peptide reconstitution and mixing. Um, so, uh, let's see, some of these are just like, Hey, how much water do I add? If you want to know, sorry, I will say this because there are a few questions I still get all the time. If want know how water to add, one you can look up the videos that I've done on that too.

2:55 We actually have the peptides reconstitutions mini course. You can go on jcampbell.com and find that. And then three, just download the peptide cheat sheet, it's for free. It tells you pretty much everything you need to know for all the peptides that you use of how much water to add to the vial. So I'll say that. This was a good question though around mixing and reconstitution. Someone asked, what's the difference between backwater and sterile water for peptides? And does benzo alcohol degrade certain peptids? I don't know specifically if benzoyl alcohol will degrate certain pepides. That's kind of a tough question.

3:25 I'm sure there are some peptides out there in the universe that it would degrade. But for most peptide that we're talking about from research chemical companies and using for therapeutic effect, no, you don't have to worry about it degrading certain peptids. The difference between backwater and sterile water would be that steril water you could use to mix with a peptid and then you would need to use it immediately. Um, because over time it's going to degrade and there's the potential for bacteria to form in that water after using it. Um where's bacteriostatic water because of the 0.9% benzoyl alcohol prevents any sort of bacteria growth so that it lasts for a long time.

4:04 Um, while I'm speaking of this fun fact that, um, I've gotten asked this question a bunch and actually just recently found out the answer after talking with a peptide manufacturer. Um. So a lot of people will get AOD 9604 and this doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes it gels up. and you can actually use acetic acid water to mix in your AOD and it will keep it from gelling. So just a fun fact, if you do have Aod and have had it gel before, mix it with acetyl acid instead of bacteriocytic water and that goes probably for any

4:38 other peptides too that I can't think of. off the top of my head that would gel. But you could use to prevent it from gelling up. So not going to happen most of the time, but people do have lots of experiences where they'll get AOD and then it'll gel after mixing with backwater. You can use AA water, acetic acid. Next question. How long does a reconstituted bio last in the refrigerator? Some protocols take 16 weeks. Will my peptides go bad? Definitely not. A peptide should last, honestly, 16 weeks definitely, I would say even six months, probably a whole year I've used peptides.

5:13 I actually just used some Melanotan one out of my fridge the other day. Probably, it probably had to be like a year and a half old and I didn't get the flushing that I normally get, but I definitely like noticed a little bit of a tan effect from doing it. So, Um, cause I went outside that day. So, um, you know, definitely 16 weeks, I would say usually like six months to a year though, it is going to denature slightly. You may need to increase the dosage from whatever you were taking based on what it was mixed. Um. But yeah, that's that.

5:43 That's it for the reconstitution questions. Let's go into some testosterone and hormone questions. So what is the best place for testosterone replacement therapy in terms of where to go? Hopefully I have an answer for that. I'm actually working behind the scenes right now on potentially working on partnering with a hormone clinic that I know is going to do good things. So stay tuned for that. I just can't overwhelm them right now and send a bunch of people to them because they're still setting up their systems. And then the other question to that was, can I do it myself?

6:15 How do I dose? Where can order from? And how do know I'm getting good quality? So those are not questions, unfortunately, I can talk about in the public because my channel would get deleted. But I would love to go and say, yes, you can do your testosterone completely on your own and you don't need a doctor. because you can't, but I can publicly say that. So that's one of those things, you know, shameless blog join fully optimize health and we can point you in the right direction, whatever it is that you need. Can peptides replace hormone therapy for postmenopausal women? Which peptide help build bones for osteoporosis and osteopenia?

6:47 So no, they cannot post menopause women require testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone. They notice I said require it is not an option for post-menopausal women to not have hormones in their body. I guess it isn't option if you just want to live a very suboptimal quality of life. Um, I should do an entire video thinking about doing this. Uh, you know, it's not going to get any views of course, but I want do a whole like 30 minute video on why the women's health initiative study was completely

7:17 false because even though it has been corrected and stands to reason that like, everyone should know that hormones are not bad for you. Um, people still think that hormone's cause cancer. So, um, if in the comments, you'd like to see that I've been thinking about doing, I have like all the research I can put together for it. And like sum it up in my style. Let me know. But, uh, hormones aren't a requirement for women and then peptides can come in. Sure. If you want to take it from Rellon, is that going to help with bone density? Maybe mildly, but unfortunately it's not, it is not going do it and that's why, like, We always say hormones before the peptide.

7:52 So probably not the answer you want to hear. Um, but man, if you could get every post-menopausal woman, like just 10 milligrams of testosterone a week, this world will change. I'll say that. Someone says, what are the best options for replacing hormones as they decline with age? Is boosting testosterone necessary or is something like ipameralin sufficient? Obviously testosterone therapy, and then depending on if you're a man or woman, is going to be required as you age, at least if want to live long and live strong. So next question, this is a good one.

8:23 Someone says, how do I optimize testosterone while keeping sperm count high for fertility? So there's really like no like cut and dry protocol to do this. You could use a dose of HCG alongside testosterone on therapy to just maintain Uh, minimum like sperm count at like 250, I use two times per week. Now, is that going to do anything long-term? Um, to like, meaning that like would you be able to get your wife pregnant like right then off of that? Probably not, but it's enough to, like keep the system going.

8:55 Um. And then once you decided you wanted to conceive, you would add M HMG alongside that you could even maybe look at in clomophene and then I would also add injectable, uh, glutathione and injectible L-carnitine to help with that. So. Someone says, this is a man. He says my total testosterone is 795. My free is, he says his free's 104.8, but that's in picograms per milliliter, not nanogram per decilitor. So it's really 10, if we're talking nanigram per desilator. Total 7.95, free as 10 in this case, because it was a different measurement, 104, Uh, shbg is 72.2 should I still consider testosterone cream in this case?

9:34 I think this guy was in the 70s Which is funny because guys in their 70's actually I see will have higher testosterone now than kids in our 20s and 30s because of the Changes in Our environment and the changes in The genetics of kids being born now having lower testosterone, which is insane, but it's kind of a case and um, so to this person I would say yes, he still should consider he said testosterone in his case. Um, you will just always feel better if a As a man, if that free number is closer to 30 to 40, I just got my blood work done.

10:04 Um, my name is around a 40. I feel amazing. So when that three number, it's close to forty, you're going to feel really good with it. With it being 10, i don't care about the total testosterone. Is it a healthy level? Like, are you going die at that level. No, You're just not going feel good. so I would say yes, but ultimately that's the decision you got to make. You know, like some people, Like some They'd like to ask for permission around hormones. I would say if you're asking me, I give you permission, bro, to do hormones, but like, you got to decide this in yourself.

10:37 So like should you quit your job? Should you start a business? should You chase your dreams? So you live an abundant, exciting, full of vigor life. I think so, but not everyone's going to do that. You know, they're going choose to stay stuck. So, um, this is a good question and it's a nice guy. But, I, you know a lot of people want permission and go forth and give you permission to chase your dreams and have high testosterone levels. I want my testosterone level as high as humanly possible that doesn't have bad side effects. And I'll say that I'm not really worried about a number on the lab work.

11:10 Um, someone says, what's the best peptide stack for perimenopause and menopausal combat weight gain and muscle loss? The first one's testosterone, even though it's not a peptide. A second would be estrogen and progesterone, and then I would say microdose of retitrutide, um, ipamrelin at 300 micrograms per night, a mitochondrial peptides like MOTC or SS 31 at one milligrams per day, uh, 200 or 400 micro grams of SLU PP three, three two per. And then yeah, start there and see how you feel.

11:40 So you get on all those things. You'll be feeling really, really good. Um, Someone says, can you do an in-depth discussion on menopause and HRT? What labs should be drawn? Which we should look for how to do, how do peptides fit in? So if you see a common theme here, especially around the hormones, it's for women that are perimenopausal postmenopas. So I probably should do more stuff on that, even though I look at my YouTube analytics, like 75% of the viewers are male.

12:10 I get more questions and comments for females. So I think a lot of women in perimenopause and postmenopausal are desperate because they don't have testosterone and they're looking for something like peptides to which peptide may help with things, but they are not going to make the difference. And then last question in this grouping with testosterone hormones, what's the proper doses of RAD? 150 I think he means rad 140 for people 50 60 and 70 plus is PCT necessary I don't know because I Don't use SARMs. I have heard people have used rad one 40 to raise our testosterone I personally would just rather use testosterone.

12:42 No, I'm not gonna get any bad side effects from testosterone cuz I know what I am doing So I just personally wouldn't used red 40. But hey, if you want to go out there knock yourself out Um, moving along to peptides, even though a lot of the questions related to testosterone kind of involve peptide, but, um, move along two peptids. Um. What's the best peptid stack dosing and protocol for long C O V I D. Uh, if you can read between the lines, you know what I'm saying? uh, which are mitochondrial dysfunction, gut dysbiosis, mast cell activation syndrome, POTS, et cetera.

13:16 Um, so there is actually a VACC stack that I have. If you email me, I can send it to you. But in short order, it's basically just thymus and alpha one, LO37, um, KPV, sorry, I was blanking, KPB, VIP, BPC 157, TB 500 and SS 31. So those would be the first places I would start for that when you think about like an autoimmune issue along those lines.

13:46 Yeah, but that is going to help with a lot of symptoms on that. I might have to make a, so I have this like whole idea around like doing a video about that, for some sort of injury that you may get from some thing that may have went on. But I know I couldn't put it on YouTube. And right now, thankfully, my YouTube channel is growing. It's a very good source of helping spread information. So I have to weigh the balance between how much I say publicly versus privately. If you're smart enough and you know where to find me in the private settings, you can go find that stuff.

14:21 There's so much we can do around that. You just can't do it publicly. What's the best peptide sack for generating new blood vessels and nerve repair? Obviously BPC TB 500 would be my go-to. We look at like new, blood-vessels. There's going to be more like angiogenesis from PPC 157. I think for like nerve-repair, you could definitely throw in ARA 290 at one milligram per day. Um, I would probably even add in like a GHK to that as well. Um it doesn't directly do anything, but I think someone that's struggling with those issues is just going to do it.

14:54 So BPC, TB 500, um, ARA 290 and GH K would be a good start. There's other stuff too, just off the top of my head. That's where I'd go. What's the best peptide sack for gut health, IVS and bladder overactivity. Bladder over activity. I'm blanking on the name of it because all the bioregulators have Kind of weird names. There is a bladder bioregulator. So that'd be the first one I'd go to for the bladder overactivity. For gut health, I would do metformin, PPC 157, TB 500, KPV.

15:26 And then I get tributrin, PEA, and lorazotide. Those are all actually orals that you could use. The others would be injectables. Glutamine, every single day, at least five grams of glutamine every day. and apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, and some inner filet aloe vera organic juice would be really good just for like gut health, IBS, soothing the gut. So those are where I would start. What are the best peptides for soft tissue healing, especially for someone needing multiple abdominal, abdominal hernia repairs?

16:03 Well, feel for whoever this person is because I struggled. It wasn't maybe necessarily a hernea, but when I played football, muscle tear or muscle strain, like in my lower abdomen region that I played with for a long time and like barely get out of bed some mornings. And, um, so I feel the pain. It like affects everything that you do. I would say, for someone like that, obviously BPC TB 500, uh, P E G M G F will be really good. Uh, I've been talking about that a lot because it works synergistically with BBC and TB five hundred.

16:35 Um, to P G, MGF, And then I would throw in some GHK and then just help with overall growth hormone support in the body, epimerelin and testimerelin. So those are where I'd start. Someone says, can you discuss a stack combining testosterone, cypionate, testumereline and BPC-157? It's amazing. I will do testosterone and cypinate. If this is a man, I'll do 70 milligrams every other day. I would do Tessamerelin two milligrams at night and I'd do BPC 157, 250 micrograms every single morning and that would be a good stack and you would definitely

17:09 get results. And BVC 15 7 is going to increase androgen receptor sensitivity and growth hormone receptor, sensitivity. So you're going get more bang for your buck out of the test and the Tessa Morelin. What's the best peptide or supplement for digestive issues in constipation in peri- and postmenopausal women? Kind of like I said, that's very similar to what I just answered. So, constepation though, I would add in magnesium citrate. Start at like 300 to 400 milligrams and then titrate your way up to one gram.

17:41 I always say with constapation, there is always a minimum threshold to which magnesium sitrate will solve consti patient. it might not be pretty, but it will solve it. And so when you're constipated, you don't really care if it's pretty. You just want to solve the issue. So I would say magnesium citrate, also psyllium husk and garcinia cambogia tend to help as well. What peptides help relieve sciatic nerve pain? ARA290. I will definitely start there. Give that a shot first. Um, best peptides for UTI, kidney and bladder regeneration.

18:15 Um SS 31 at like 10 milligrams a day does really, really well for kidney, uh, tissue and chronic kidney disease. Bladder regeneration, I would say, definitely the bladder bioregulator. If you go to bio longevity labs, just look on the bi oregulators. I forget the name of it. There's a, there's, a bladder one on there. It'll be in the description of. And then, um, U T I. That's an infection. So you could use LL 37 to help combat that, um, with the infection thing. But, I would probably add in BPC 1572, uh, if you're looking at like, you know, tissue regeneration and TP 500 as well.

18:52 Um, best peptide combo for energy, fat loss, and libido for a 39 year old man, CJC blend or Tessamerelin. 39-year-old man testosterone first. And then I would say Tessemereline after that would be really good. I think the energy and fat-loss really comes from obviously raising growth hormone, but then also to just the better sleep you get. and libido is going to come from that as well. And then I would probably throw in like five to 10 milligrams of Tadalafel a day. I think guys can start taking Tadelafil a lot younger than we probably thought at one time in the past.

19:22 But yeah, I'd say that's a good starting point, but obviously, you know, a 39 year old man, that is kind of that age where most men become aware that there is a problem. They notice it's problem, Uh, I think that age is becoming younger and younger because of declining testosterone levels. Um, but that's kind of the age that like most people is like, okay, something is wrong now. So, um, someone says it's stacking HCG, HCH, testosterone, and hypermerelin too much. Also does triseptide slow, slowing gastric emptying impact fasting timing.

19:54 Um, no, I don't think that's too much. Uh, actually just released a video on like timing all of those together. Um. But I, don' think. That's. Too much, you just want to be smart with the GH test around and also to just have a use case for it. So it's like, okay, like what is the use of that? Are you. Just taking it to take it? You're trying to lose fat, you're going to sleep better and trying build muscle. You know, um, it's just trying maximize every facet of performance. So just say like, be aware of like what your use case is. Um, I don't think there's appetite slowing gastric emptying impact fasting timing.

20:24 I think you can pass any time on it. Just take it, take three to four times per week and you'll be a little fast. No problem. What's the best peptide supplement for muscle growth? HGH or HCH fragment 176191. So HGFRAG, as it's commonly called, or a HHFrag 176191 is actually just a chain of amino acids out of growth hormone. that is supposed to help with fat loss. From what I've heard and seen, I don't really think it does that much. I would rather use AOD 9604 for that.

20:56 And then it's not going to do anything to build muscle at all. So it will not build muscles. HGH FRAG will no build Muscle. HEH, which is 191 amino acid sequence HE, will build mussel. If you want to go muscle, go with HE. That's your best bet. Obviously if you have testosterone as a man or woman alongside of it, it is going do really well. I get this question a lot. I can't really answer it in a Q and A style. They say like, I'd love to know like a whole entire calendar year of peptide use.

21:27 And that's just hard because it's different for everyone. So like what my calendar, your peptides is going to be way different than like person trying to lose 30 pounds versus someone that postmenopausal. It's really hard to answer that. The better question would be, better way to answer it, it would be like, how could I help you build a diagnostic tool to help You build A peptide calendar? Because like peptides are just tools. So it kind of like be saying like how do I build calendar out of using the tools in my garage?

21:58 That'd be really hard to do, if that makes sense. I say that because that's a very, very common question that I get and I've heard so many times. And it's just tough to say because like, you've got to look at the project before you can decide which tools to use. So really, really ask yourself, like what is my project? And then the tools get very apparent. But if you just go in the garage and you say like how do I use these tools over the course of a year? Like, I don't know, dude. It's kind of hard to to.

22:29 Going deeper on peptides, let's look First one is, can I take four to six weeks off of a True Tide after 12 weeks on? If so, what should I do in between to keep losing fat? I'd say, yeah, definitely you can take 4 to 6 weeks. I would actually recommend that. And then I could switch to Cagri. You could also do Tessofensine and Calicurb. In the meantime, that's always what I kind of say. to help maintain fat loss and appetite suppression. But, um, I really like category for the appetite, suppression, to cycle off in the meantime, without necessarily that crossing pathways.

23:03 Um, which leads me to the next question. Good timing. Would category be a good option to microdose after finishing around a true tight cycle? I think absolutely. And I, think it kind of like helps wean you off of the appetites oppression so that you maintain the gains train, so to speak. So, uh, definitely like that and, a, the video that should be published just for this one talks about that. Red True Tide made me feel weak and tired after one microdose. Why? This is actually pretty common among people that I hear and there's a whole lot of reasons why.

23:36 One being that it dehydrates people. And so when you get dehydrated, you get very tired. If you're not hydrated, you'll be very retired. I actually just did a dry fast for the first time on Sunday, uh, which was four days ago from time of filming this video. And I was so dead. Like I felt like, like a little baby. Cause usually like I have, I can fast, no problem. Things that I do that are hard. Yeah, whatever. But I'll do them. That was like man, the gratitude I had for just one drop of water, after doing a dry fast for 20 hours is amazing.

24:16 Uh, but I was like exhausted like 18 to 19 hours into a drive fast. I felt like dead and it's cause I'm so dehydrated. Um, so I think that's the main reason that you're getting dehydrate, um, depleting minerals much, much more. But then also to, you know, your body's kind of like going through like biggest metabolic phase shift. that it probably ever has. And so that's stressful to the body and it kind of puts you like into sympathetic overdrive, you know, and then you get tired. So, um, there's a lot of things you can do, uh, that I talk about to help mitigate that stay hydrated, take taurine, two to three grams per day.

24:52 Um, but yeah, best answer. Um, I took Tessmorelin and my appetite shot up drastically. Is there a correlation? Yes, there absolutely is. Um when we increase growth on the body, think of it as like the Babies have high IGF. What do babies do? They sleep and they poop and eat. And when we increase growth hormone, especially when it's been in the gutter or in basement for a long time, all of a sudden now our body's like,

25:22 Oh, I want to grow. I've got to do all these things to help grow, repair and regenerate. In doing that, it is going to require sleep. That's the first thing is it's going to make us more sleepy. And then also what is going do? What's gonna require more food to fuel all the growth? And so it was very common to like raise growth hormone and then have your appetite shoot up. So there definitely is a correlation between appetite increasing and the, uh, want to sleep or your tiredness or drowsiness increasing when we started

25:52 growth from on peptide. Let's move into some troubleshooting questions. Is it normal to bruise badly when injecting AOD? I get lumps at the injection site. Why? For some people it is. I have never had that one time in my life. And I've never seen that before. Uh, why I think it's an inflammatory response to inject into the fat tissue. because when we inject into fat tissue, there is much higher likelihood of a cytokine response or a histamine response to a foreign substance being injected

26:24 into the fat tissues than into muscle tissue. That's just my pet theory. But hey, I have seen it work time and time again. If you switch from doing sub Q to intramuscular with those peptides that cause these bad reaction sites to happen, it goes away. So I can't say it's going to work for you, but it worked for a lot of people. Someone says I experienced pins and needles in my hands and feet while using it from my own testosterone. Why is this happening? Um, this is very common when we raise growth hormone a lot in the body.

26:54 Um I haven't, I've never had it with IPA and Tessa, but I have taken a higher doses of growth hormones and seen this happen. So just back down the dosage. If you're, you doing it to me, that's a sign that the dose of just too high for you. Cause the doses is going to be too different for everyone. My liver enzymes doubled after using Ipameral and Intestamerald. How can I continue using peptides without harming my liver? There's a couple probably reasons this is happening. I think the biggest one is that one, it's allowing you to train harder and you may have gotten your liver, enzymes checked after training.

27:30 Um, so one is allowing you to train harder. A lot of times when we train hard, or even though we're not trying harder, we are training harder because now we can like up the Annie because we have more energy and we more growth hormone in the body. Um. So I don't necessarily that you would be harming your liver. I also don' know what you're doing from a lifestyle standpoint, but the counter that I would also introduce is injectable glutathione is going to massively improve bringing liver enzymes down. And I think when you look at hypermerelin and testimereline directly, they're not increasing reactive oxygen species in the body,

28:03 but indirectly they may be because of what it's allowing us to do to produce more energy and to all those things, which could ultimately cause liver enzymes to be higher. And then we use an antioxidant to bring those down. So injectable glutathione, I would say 200 milligrams, two times a week, and you would probably see your liver, enzymes come right down and, um, you can enjoy using peptides, uh, for many years into the future. Um, someone says I took melatonin one and sealant together and develop severe tinnitus. Could this be an interaction? Um.

28:33 It could, I think this person also mentioned that, uh, they were using a benzo diazepine. And I guess when you use melanotin, one with the benzodiazepines, it can cause tennitus, um, so. Yeah, guess it is. I would stay away from using benzos altogether, but, Um I. Guess it could happen because of some sort of, you know, interaction is going on there. So sorry. I don't have a better, better answer on that one. Someone says I have gastric sleeve. Does this impact how I should dose peptides?

29:05 You know? I know. No, I think it would. But I would just say check with your doctor. And I wouldn't really want to, even if I knew, cause it's kind of tough to say. I just donated blood. How soon can I do blood work to check RBC and hematocrit? Well, I don't recommend donating blood to me. The only time I donate blood is when I go get my bloodwork done. There's a school of thought in like the testosterone world that you have to donate. Blood.

29:35 I didn't that I think it's bad. You're fine to disagree with me and that's okay. I think that if we're doing everything right, there is no need to donate blood. And I, think in the long run, it could probably cause more harm than good, but you could do it right away. To answer the question, you can do your blood work right and see the effectiveness of donating blood if it brings your hermetic hurt down. But also too, most guys can run up to like, you know, 57, 58 hermatic hurt and not have any issues assuming that you're doing cardio. And, um, a lot of times you look at people that live at high altitudes, their hermitic hurts like 55, 60 all the time and they're perfectly healthy and

30:10 I don't need to adjust that. So, I'm, yeah, it's up. Do as that will. Um, let's look at some peptide stuff. So do peptides like BPC one seven need to be injected the injury site for healing or a subcutaneous injection enough? Uh, yes, I would inject if you are attempting to heal an injury, inject as close to the entry site. You can even do intramuscularly. Um, as long as it's, you know, like not going to be too painful or, uh, the injection doesn't cause too much inflammation based on the injury. Uh, and I know like sometimes people have a cast on, he can't inject through the cast obviously.

30:41 So, um, but now you definitely want to inject at the entry site if you can. What peptides can be taken orally and still be effective? I see GHKs useful both ways. You know, I think it can, it's just never going to be as effective oraly if injected, but BPC, TP500, GHk, there's all oral formulations of those. I'm trying to think, you know there are a lot of the gut health peptide or more of oral ones. The peptides that are effective orally are ones for gut health.

31:12 And there's other peptide out there like SLU that aren't peptized per se, but you can take oraly and they have effects. But peptid specifically, you're going to need to inject them. Once you get over that, the world is yours. Literally you could do anything if you inject peptids. Ask anybody that's watching this or in the comments. Are lipopolysaccharides removed from any research pharmacies? So I think before my video of this was published, before I got asked this question, or after I've got this asked, this Most I can't speak for all.

31:52 I, I don't, also I'll answer this way. Don't worry about lipopolysaccharides being in my research pet beds. So, um, you know, don' need to go any further into that because I made a video about it, but, yeah, just don, be afraid. Just, do your homework. What are your thoughts on supplementing T2 for fat loss? I've never done it. I would stick to using desiccated thyroid instead of just synthetic T two. Uh, I know that's out there. You can get it from research companies, but I just wouldn't do it so, um, look into it, But I don't think using that would be a good idea when we have

32:28 something like desicated thyroid. Um, is L-BABA helpful for Fat Loss? Uh maybe a little bit. exercise mimetic supplement. So it's supposed to be like, you know, something that kind of works like Matzi, the exercise in bottle, but it is not as strong. But probably it was probably better than nothing. Is it good as a peptide? I highly doubt it. This is a good one. One that's near and dear to my heart. What's the best peptide for, um, recovering from concussions?

32:59 I would say BPC and TB 500, but then also cerebral license. Cerebral license is going to be the, uh, hands down to helping heal from. Um, I've got videos on it. You can go to cerebral liaison.com I think, and they explain like how to use it, the protocols and everything there. So go check that out. Let's see. That was actually a question I got earlier. Dose of Shred X, I'm on my second bottle and wanted to make sure I was dosing correctly. I would just, of shred X which has 275 micrograms of SLU.

33:29 It's got five milligrams of Carterine and a hundred micro grams of liposomal AOD. You could do another one in the evening if you were training in evening and then go up to like two capsules per day. Um, and it works great, but I don't think you need to do that all the time. So, um, how much should I take of anabolic's anonymous liquid five amino to match the capsule dosage?

33:59 Um well, if you're taking it liquid, I would probably take the same, But if your taking injectable, i would do, ive done like 500 micrograms. With injectable 5-amino, so injectible 5 amino is starting to be out there more. I would do 500 micrograms of it, would be my recommendation. So you can get it and then reconstitute it. And then inject 500-microgram. Um, So I didn't know there was a liquid version that anabolic synonymous was selling. What's the difference between TB 500 and TB500 fragment 1723? Does the dosing change?

34:30 No, the dose doesn't really change. I actually have a whole video explaining the the differences between the TB-500 fragments. TB five hundred is the synthetic version of Thymus and Beta-4. And there's all these different fragments of the peptide. TB500 is the synthetic form of it. And then there are different like fragments. So TB4 fragment 17 through 23 is a really popular one. But go to that video. Just look up like Hunter Williams TB 500 and I explain like all the different variations in those. It's kind of a long-winded explanation.

35:01 Um, where can I find a reputable testing lab for peptides? Is Genocik reliable? Sure. Genotia is reliable. Um. MZ labs is. There's a ton of places now that you can go and get your peptide tested. So, um, definitely, I definitely do. How do I fund a doctor to diagnose growth hormone deficiency and prescribe HGH affordably? Good luck. I don't know if you find one, let me know. Most doctors are not going to do that. So you have to resort to alternative means. I understand how nice it is to have a prescription for it.

35:33 But it's easier said than done. And I don't personally know of anyone. So, um, Can you discuss the effects of combining fasting with peptides? Yeah, absolutely. I mean, I have a whole book on it. It's called 30 Days of Shreds. Fasting works great. You can take peptide fasted or non-fasted. There are very few peptids. No, not really any that I could think of that you couldn't take in a fast state. But I fast for 20 to 24 hours, usually three times a week. So depending on the week, sometimes it's four times, Sometimes it is three time, But almost always three times a week, I'm fasting for 20 to 24 hours.

36:08 I recently started doing a dry fast, which is rough. Hopefully it'll get easier. Um, but I've been doing that for one day a. So out of those three fasting times, they do that. For one week. Now, a lot of people are like, Oh, there's no way you can build muscle in that well. Yes, There is. If you're doing everything right. And you doing, um, from the modalities that I would teach. But I think for as far as fasting goes, fasting should be something that everyone does on a regular basis, at least one or two times. Um...

36:40 Another question says, what's your opinion on using T2, T3, and T4 for amino asylum? I wouldn't use it. I would just get desiccated thyroid. That's harder to find out there, but that's what I'd do. Someone asked, I'll close out. How would you approach someone or treating someone with the C word using peptides? There's a lot of different ones. It's tough because like the c word, there's lot iterations of the word. and not all peptides are going to do the same thing for certain types.

37:13 Um, so I think the best thing you could do is, you know, there there's other stuff out there. That's not even peptide, um, that we have to talk about in private that you can do for that. I'm sure like GLP one peptids could help. And this specific case, I don't know of a particular peptid that would help with that, but I get questions like that all the time. You know, they're struggling or their family member is struggling and they they resorting to like anything they can do to do it.

37:43 I would just say, you know you're kind of kind have to go like go off the reservation if you want to it and a lot of these therapies don't play well with some of the more allopathic therapies. generate lots of money for Big Pharma. So that's all of the questions I have. I would just say in closing, first of all, thank you guys so much. I will also say, keep those questions coming.

38:13 The link is in the description of all my videos. It's also in a footer of my emails. So you can always reach out, submit a question, and I'll get to it on these videos, so thank you guys so much. Keep the questions comin', and until the next time, I see you later. Peace.
