Saturday Morning Coffee Talk · 7/26/25
Taylor and I sat down for our Saturday morning live this week and covered a lot of ground. Hormone questions came up, the peptide pipeline got more interesting, and we got into why so many doctors are still in the dark on testosterone. Here's the rundown.
Altitude, hematocrit, and why your doctor might be wrong
A question came up in Taylor's women's group about altitude and hormone testing. Here's what's going on.
When you take testosterone, your red blood cell count goes up. That increases oxygen carrying capacity, which is good. But downstream, hemoglobin and hematocrit can rise. Push it too far and your blood gets thick, which raises clot risk.
A normal guy might have a hematocrit around 47. He starts testosterone, it goes to 53 or 54, and his doctor freaks out and tells him to donate blood. Then he donates so often he becomes anemic and iron deficient. That's actually dangerous.
Here's the thing. People living in Denver or other high altitude cities walk around with hematocrits of 57 or 58 because the air has less oxygen. Their bodies adapt. If a guy on TRT has a hematocrit issue, the real problem is usually that he's overweight and not doing cardio. Cardio four to five times a week brings it right back down because your blood oxygenates better.
If your doctor has you donating blood four times a year as a man, that's not normal. You can become anemic from that.
Why most doctors are still uninformed about TRT and HRT
Jim asked why so many doctors miss the mark on hormones. It's a few things stacked on top of each other.
It's not really taught in medical school. Medical schools have sponsors and big pharma backing. Testosterone is cheap. Doctors don't make money on it.
Then there's the life of a doctor. They go to college, then medical school, then residency. They can't make real money until they're 30 or 32. The hours are brutal, the loans are massive, and they're trying to be normal humans through all of it. Doctors have one of the highest suicide rates of any profession.
By the time they're established, they've got golden handcuffs. A mortgage, kids, a boat. Why would they rock the boat learning something new when they make $750,000 prescribing Lipitor and Lexapro?
There's also the systemic piece. The healthcare system is a managed death system at the highest levels. If everyone got optimized hormones, the antidepressant market shrinks, the obesity market shrinks, birth control prescriptions drop, anxiety meds drop. Too much vested interest gets disrupted.
I don't think most doctors are bad people. A lot of them want to do the right thing. But they only have so much bandwidth, and the system pushes them in one direction.
Being wrong is a feature, not a bug
This came up in the discussion and I think it's worth pulling out. If you can let yourself be wrong about things, the world opens up. If every peptide I ever made a video about turned out to be worthless, I'd say so. That's freedom.
People build their whole lives on a narrative of "this is the way." Then one day they find out it wasn't. If you put your ideas to the test continuously, you don't build up a house of cards.
Folistatin update: a modified version is coming
Dave asked about Vesugen and Folistatin 344. I'm not running Folistatin right now, but here's what's happening behind the scenes.
We're working with a chemist who's developed a modified Folistatin that doesn't bind to Activin. That matters because at higher doses, regular Folistatin can suppress the immune system through that binding. This version sidesteps that. It also has an albumin binder to extend its half life.
What we've been told, and we'll see how it plays out in practice, is that you'll be able to put on five to ten pounds of skeletal muscle in about two months on one injection per week. Then maintain with one injection per month. Works for men and women because it's independent of sex hormones.
This should be available later this year. The same chemist has hundreds of patents and has sold compounds to major drug companies. This will probably become an approved drug in the next four or five years, likely paired with GLP-1s to prevent muscle loss.
Vesugen so far
I've been on Vesugen for about two weeks. Hard to put my finger on a single feeling. It's the blood vessel bioregulator, so it enhances blood flow, which means everything else works better.
If I had to compare it, it feels like taking 10 milligrams of Cialis daily without taking the Cialis. Cardio feels easier. I did 700 calories on the bike this morning and barely noticed. Taylor's noticed it helps with pumps in the gym and makes cardio feel effortless.
It's like Ventfort but stronger. Ventfort is the oral version. The older or unhealthier someone is, the more they'll notice it.
Vlon for foot pain
Taylor's been dealing with foot pain. We thought it was plantar fasciitis but it turns out her hip flexors and calves are so tight it's referring pain into her heels.
She's been injecting Vlon sub-q into her stomach at night and into the top of her foot in the morning. Within ten minutes of injecting the foot, pain dropped from a nine to a four. Cartalax stung too much when she tried injecting that into her heel.
In my experience Vlon feels like BPC and Thymosin combined. Systemic immune and digestion benefits like Thymosin, plus the localized inflammation relief of BPC. Taylor says it's been better for her foot than BPC or TB500.
Sourcing your own hormones for under $2,000 a year
Robin asked if she could borrow her husband's testosterone cream. Technically yes if you can do the math, but we're not fans of cream for women anyway. It converts more aggressively to DHT.
Here's the bigger point. People get scared off hormone therapy because they think they have to find the perfect doctor and pay $7,000 a year. You don't.
If your husband has prescribed testosterone, pull one milliliter out of his vial, dilute it down with nine milliliters of grape seed oil, and you've got 10 weeks of testosterone for a woman at 10 milligrams per week. Source desiccated thyroid and progesterone from offshore pharmacies.
Taylor put together three different sourcing methods for her women's group. The cheapest came out to about $1,700 a year doing it all yourself.
People complain about prices. The world costs what it costs. Either find a way to source things cheaper, or find a way to make more money. I sold firewood in winter when I started in real estate making $22,000 a year. There's always a way.
And $1,700 a year on hormones saves you hundreds of thousands later. Chemotherapy runs $10,000 to $30,000. People struggle to think about money in terms of opportunity cost.
Why Reta makes you tired and how to fix it
Reta cranks up your metabolism and suppresses your appetite. You're burning more, eating less, and that creates a caloric deficit. Less energy in, more energy out, you feel tired. It's a sign it's working.
The fix is injectable 5-amino, ideally combined with NAD. Inject the NAD intramuscularly. I've never had a tired afternoon on injectable 5-amino. It gives you energy without making you wired.
Quick hits from the chat
Liver and kidney support on cycle: Injectable glutathione at 100mg three or four times a week beats milk thistle by a mile. SS-31 periodically through the year for kidneys. New human trial data on SS-31 is impressive.
HGH for perimenopausal women: Yes. One to two IUs five days a week. I prefer Sinotropin over Genotropin. Less water retention and cheaper. The Sinotropin pen lets you dose in half-IU increments, which matters for smaller women. Give your body four to six weeks to adjust to water retention.
Bioabsorb dosing: One capsule with each meal. It's 125mg dihydroberberine and 125mg metformin. Metformin keeps getting smeared on social media in cycles. The dose matters. The deleterious findings were at 10 grams a day.
Best peptide for brain fog: Biomind with J147 has been better for me than Semax.
Cerebrolysin on Bio Longevity: People who sell it have been getting letters. We'd like to, but it's complicated.
Eye drops with BPC and TB500: Use contact solution, not bacteriostatic water. Three milliliters into the vial, pull it out, add seven more milliliters of water in a dropper bottle, keep in the fridge. Taylor has a video walking through it.
Amazon bacteriostatic water: Don't use it. I've talked to chemists who manufacture peptides in the US and they confirmed a lot of the Amazon stock is fraudulent. It messes up your peptides and causes bad reactions.
Acetic acid solution: Every peptide user should keep some on hand. If your peptide gels or crystallizes, 0.1 to 0.2 milliliters will usually break it up. NAD, AOD, and testosterone can all gel.
Histamine reactions to peptides: Try good bac water first. Thymosin Alpha-1 microdose helps. Thymulin can stop the overactive immune response. Even microdosed GLPs at 0.25mg of Reta or Tirz can calm it down.
Pregnancy and testosterone: Testosterone actually enhances fertility in women. They use it in IVF protocols. Taylor didn't get positive ovulation tests until she started injecting testosterone. For men coming off, HMG and HCG, or Tesigen.
My take
The theme of this week's call was self reliance. Stop waiting for a doctor to give you permission. Stop waiting for the perfect product to drop. Source your own hormones, run your own experiments, build your own sample size of what works for your body. Be willing to be wrong, adjust, and keep going.
The Folistatin development we're working on is going to change a lot for people in the next year. Vesugen is quietly becoming one of my favorite bioregulators. And if you're tired on Reta, get the injectable 5-amino and stop suffering through it.
We'll be back next Saturday. Love you guys.

And we're live Saturday morning. Good morning everyone. How goes it? Already people in the comments. What's going on? Yeah, if you guys can put in. The comments whether you can hear both of our mics good. I know last time there issues with mine, so someone could just comment. If you Guys can here us. That would be awesome. Just so we are not talking into the wind. Yeah.
All right. Got one comment. Yes. I know there's a little bit of a lag. Okay. Just want to make sure it sounds good because we've got these new mics. We don't really have, I think at some point we'll have a studio set up in our house to do this in, but we're lucky if we even have like half of our stuff unpacked right now. So. Yeah. So go ahead. Just ground rules. Make sure that you ask your questions in the chat and we will get to all those at least within the next two hours or so.
We'll probably talk a little bit before. Is there anything on your mind this week that came up that? He thought was worth talking about. Um, this actually came up in my call on my, my women's group. We go live on, I do a live call in Thursdays and it was the first question that was asked and I didn't know the answer to it. And, um, one of the girls were, were asking about, you and Jay had talked about altitude and something like hormone testing and how.
Or was it related to like testosterone stuff? Yeah, it's related. Did they live at altitude? I'm assuming. Well, the only thing that I could think of that has to do with altitude is, so when you use testosterone, it increases red blood cell count, which like downstream, because it's increasing like the amount of oxygen in your body, downstream it can raise hemoglobin and hematocrit.
Now what that means, if you took that too far, is that eventually your blood would become thick. that becomes more inclined to have clots. That's the same thing if someone's overweight and doesn't exercise. Yes, they can have thicker blood. Or if they had certain governmental procedures done, but that can also happen with living in high altitude areas too. Correct. So what happens is because the oxygen is lower at higher altitudes, the body works harder to get more oxygen.
so it ramps up those things. And so basically what happened is like a normal guy probably has hematocrit of like 47. He starts taking testosterone. It goes up to like 53, 54, and then the doctors freak out and say, you need to start donating blood because your blood is becoming too thick and you're going to have a clot which will become harder. Yes. And in that case, he needs to lose weight. A lot of times the problem is too, the guy is to fat anyway, and he's not doing cardio. What would happen if that guy did cardio, at least four to five times a week, if not every day, like we do cardio every.
That would come right back down because what would happened is their blood would get a lot better like oxygenate. So I think there's actually the argument to be made that like, there's a performance enhancement benefit to having that because you want like more red blood cells because it oxygenates the body better within range. But what happens is a lot of guys start taking testosterone, their hematoma grows up like 54 or 53 and then their docs start freaking out. And then they tell them to donate blood and they donate a blood. Then they become anemic and have low iron because they're donating blood so much, which is dangerous.
But what that has to do with altitude is that there's lots of normal people that are at like a 57, 58 hematocrit walking around if they live at somewhere like Denver or a high altitude city because there is less oxygen in the air there. So it really is something that like if it is an issue, it's because that person doesn't do cardio and they're too fat. But I don't know if that's what that person was specifically talking about with that case.
But anyway, that was probably what he was talking. I get questions from guys all the time of like, why do I have a little iron? And I'm like, well, are you donating blood? And they're like yeah, my doctor makes me donate blood four times a year. And that's not what you, that is dangerous. If you're donating four blood times here as a man. Because you can get low iron and become anemic. The same way women can if they do the same thing. Is it true you don't donate if you have tattoos? I feel like someone told me that. I don' know. My mom told that when I got my first tattoo. Yeah.
Yeah, I'm trying to think. Did I see anything that stood out to me this week? Not really that I can think of. It was a pretty normal week. There was nothing, like, shocking that came out. I think we can go ahead and start taking questions unless you have any stuff you want to talk about. No, usually that will come up when we start answering questions. Yeah, so echo. What's up, man? Think he's in North Carolina as well. If I remember right, I can't remember, but.
But what areas are we most excited to grow into next? I would say for me, the area that I'm most Um, probably more so doing more, so studying and plan development for pregnancies for like our pregnancy. Um. I would say at this point, like I have baby fever.
And I'm ready to start exploring and making those plans and to dive more into coming up with pregnancy plans, not even just for myself, but also to help other women as well, too. And just more product development. Yeah. Because I have a couple of products I want you guys to develop. Waves of magic. I think Yeah, I would say parenthood would be like in the next two years, probably the biggest thing of taking that on from the physical perspective,
but then also from emotional and spiritual perspective of doing that. Echo says microdosing psilocybin at 425 micrograms, legal in Colorado, three times a week has brought the mitochondrial health spin goals and career purpose into focus. Other States will follow 5-HPP, cytokoline, ALA support and enhance. Definitely true. It would be cool if eventually like one thing we all have a pipe dream of is like selling psillocyban for research purposes.
Like if somehow we can find a legal new call for that. Yeah. I actually talked about psiliocyben on my women's call this past week. In what context was that? For anxiety and mental health and anxiety benefits. And there was also an alternative that they didn't want to use, Melanotin-1, for the mental-health aspects. Wait a second. So someone is afraid of using Melana-10? No, they're not. OK, no. They're afraid. No. they are not afraid Melano-Ten-One is that some people with Melania-ten-one can cause hyperpigmentation to happen.
And when, as a woman, and I am one of those women that spend a good bit of money on skincare and skincare procedures and laser treatments and everything, I actually haven't had laser treatment, but when you do that and you're spending money and then you are adding in something that could be counterproductive, like, that's fair. But I think also to the mental health benefits of melanotainment is more so like what?
She was wearing another alternative and that's why I suggested I Guess I could see that I would say fundamentally they're like two really different things. I guess I'd see like Yeah, I mean I think I should call it like a a white light light psychedelic. Yeah. Hey, yes But is it much more than I? guess it is like theanine, you know like What I'm saying is just like, I am a proponent of psilocybin.
I think there's like a whole entire pantry of stuff you should utilize before that comes into the equation. If there is like life trauma issue that needs to be addressed. Yeah. But I don't, well, it's also just exploring like there are also multiple different options. It wasn't just talking about just those that mushroom company for microdosing.
Yeah. We also talked about like B&E and we also talk about tigers, tigers milk mushroom. And we talked also about reishi. Um, and that was another. Was this like a case of anxiety? No, it was just more so like wanting more. So the like anxiety, mental health and just like the cognitive benefits. Well, my default will always be like for a man or woman testosterone, but obviously that doesn't like solve all ills. But I think a lot of people misplace those things because they have a hormone deficiency.
Yes. Yeah. But I mean, it's not to say that testosterone will fix everything, but I do think there is a place and a use case for psilocybin. But it is one of those things I think people just get a little overzealous about because it a piece of the equation and not the key to the equations. I agree. I mean, but there is a place for it. Like we've obviously used it and to great benefit. But I will say, like, I think there are a lot of people with psychedelics.
It's a before you get into that realm, you should be very grounded. You know what I? mean? Yeah, because it's not something to be toyed around with. like it?s not Something to like just be like? Oh, yeah, Like I casually do it, and the reason I say it has become it is becoming like very mainstream. mainstream but like even so more so amongst like elite or like very like well-to-do people and I think what happens a lot of those times like people they
become really successful and then they don't realize why they became successful or they they have no purpose anymore because they're like I've made all the money I want to make and like like i've talked to people like this and they like, well maybe I just need to like have psilocybin so I can like break down my brain there's like before you went on that journey, you should have been grounded in like, why you were doing what you're doing, because like even psilocybin can be a tool, but it's not gonna like help you find your purpose in life. So a little philosophical, let's see.
Biggest concerns around blood work, long-term over-stressing liver and kidneys, hydration is good, but only running 350 milligrams of medical this will help liver, what other liver or kidney support you'd run. I would definitely be doing, Echo, I'd definitely doing 200 milligrams injectable glutathione. You could actually do 100 milligrams per shot. So if you did 100 grams of injectible glutothione like three or four times a week, that's gonna be huge for the liver. Much more so, milk thistle's good and don't get me wrong, much more than milk thistle. For the kidneys, SS31 is really good to use periodically throughout the year for the kidney.
So that's what I kind of lean on with the Kidneys. There's actually just sent out an email yesterday about like human trials of SS 31. And there's substantial data in there around kidney support and helping people. I forget off the top of my head with exactly like what kidney condition, but there was efficacy even in clinical trials with SS-31 in the human kidney so. We're going to put the questions on the screen. Oh, yeah. I always forget that. Brand the drink powder, margin refuge, Gathlin marketing, combined protein, fiber, collagen, electrolytes with and without caffeine.
Tired of scooping all day. Yeah, I got good feedback from the SS 31 email. So what's interesting about I'll say this, what interesting that like published studies is we have a lot of tools now with AI to crawl different medical literature databases. So before, like when I would like look to find studies, it gets like really, really hard to like dig through data, because not only are you looking to, stuff in the title of the study, but then you're looking for stuff on the body. Now we can say like, okay, It's a lot easier to feed into AI search engines, find me this, this and this about these type of peptides or whatever it is.
And then you can go find it and then pull that and extract data from that. So it cuts the research curve, at least for me, like when I'm compiling those emails down a lot more. What's interesting about studies is, I even wrote in my book, studies are not the end all be all. Actually, no study is replicatable, meaning that you cannot take the same study and replicate it over and over again. You can get close to the results, but it's actually physically impossible to replicate the study again because of the observer effect, because you have people the moment you introduce someone observing something, it changes the nature of the outcome.
Does that make sense? And with studies, they really shouldn't be more of like a confirmation of what we see in practice. But I think for people, when they see that it's like, okay, like there was a new study that I was telling you about that. I wrote an email about, about sleep that came out this week. And it was like they took muscle biopsies out of people that were having hip surgery and restored the tissue of elderly women that had That were sedentary
to the tissue of women that were active when they use sleep so basically took all these blood markers and so we knew that for a year like we do what sleep was doing, but the study just confirmed that and to now people say like okay like this is not just placebo effect. when I'm doing it, so pretty interesting. But I do like them in that sense, but I think some people, it's one of those things, like if you go on the internet and you can just get into like, yeah, and then you get that like fighting matches all day about like this, this stuff.
You can basically, what I was saying is like you could use a study to prove whatever you want, But if there's repeated evidence to show something in practice, to me, the study like validates that, okay, we were kind of on right path with something. What's up, Jim? Always loyal listener. Glad to have you here. He says this will probably be a long answer to this question. And he says, why do you think so many doctors are uninformed when it comes to TRT and HRT?
Is it antiquated teaching methods, ignorance, both? What are your thoughts? Well, you go first. I guess a little bit of a mixture of everything. I think it's just one we know it, it is not practice in medical school. It's not taught in Medical School. And then I'm going to sound like a conspiracy theory now, but like, you know, medical schools are usually backed by big pharma companies, most schools do have sponsors, no matter what the subject is.
And I just feel like it's not practice or there's bad teaching out there. Then I think testosterone is cheap. Doctors don't make that much money off of it, as far as what kickbacks are. And I also think that I mean, again, big pharma, I think controls, obviously controls the medical field.
And, and I don't think, you know, more people on test officer, or more on hormones, being hormonally optimized, that's going to affect big Pharma. Think about what you put women that, are hormonally deficient, put them on biodegradable hormone replacement therapy. Okay. All of your birth control. So, you know, birth, control goes down. SS, um, SSRIs go down, anxiety medications, like all those things will go.
Yeah. I think it's, it' multifactorial to quote scripture, forgive them father. They know not what they do. And I thinking a lot of cases it is ignorance, meaning that There's a lot of doctors out there, if they knew the right thing, I know they would do the thing. But they just don't know. And I'm layering into the non-conspiratorial aspect to just give people an example and then I can talk about conspiracy. So they don' know, and on top of that, think about the life of a doctor, just like you think of the wife of an attorney or a business person or whatever.
Let's look at the They go to school, they go college, and then they get out and they got to medical school and do their residency and go through this whole thing where they can't even make money until they're 30 or 32 years old. Then once they do that, basically this brutal, brutal process of the residency, to try to pay back the loans, even if they had their college. They're still learning while they are doing all that. they're still learning, the hours are brutal.
On top of that, you're trying to live a normal life and be a healthy human being. Being a doctor, just like doing a lot of jobs, it's not conducive to being a health human. You know, like doctors, I think have some of the highest suicide rates of all professions. And so you basically are in this hole that you just, The more you dig the deeper you keep falling into it to try to get out. We grew up, we have kids and we had mortgages and have all these things.
And then one day, all of a sudden, what I'm saying is it kind of just becomes a routine. You get the golden handcuffs and it's like, well, I make money prescribing Lipitor or I made money perscribing Lexapro and all those things and that's just how the world works. Just like someone in a bank, and I just say bank because that was what thought I was going to do when I You wake up one day and you're faced with these like kind of like moral dilemmas and it's like, well, I don't want to rock the boat. I'm just going to keep things going the way they are.
Yeah. Why would you, let's take the average doctor, they make $750,000 a year, depending on the city they live in or whatever, some more, or some less. Why wouldn't you necessarily just rock that boat when you have a family, you've got a boat, kids, all these things you got to do. So it's like, what, again- And then the drives have to go learn something new. Yeah, exactly. And it takes a certain person that is like philosophically grounded to want to do the right thing.
I think a lot of doctors do want do to the thing, but there are also people too, and they only have a limited bandwidth of resources that they can allocate time, energy, money into. And so they just get caught up in this system. Now, this is where the conspiracy comes in. It's like the system itself is flawed by nature. Is that by design? At the highest levels, yes. I don't think that there's people that run hospitals and stuff that are necessarily wanting to kill people. No. Maybe there are. But I think at the highest levels, you have to understand that it's a managed death system.
And so people go through phases of life and it to manage death. Then we're just giving them enough to like manage that to the point where they become good taxpaying citizens and then they're eventually age out and opt out of existence. Now to the question of testosterone, here's what's funny is that there's tons of money to be made in testosterone therapy. This is why there are so many people getting into it and making businesses like starting businesses and everything with testosterone. The issue is, is that while there's a ton of money to be made in testosterone, the opportunity cost for the healthcare system,
if people got testosterone would be that so much else would go away. So like the anti-depressant market, a lot of that would do away the obesity market. A lot like so of the things that are vested would get away if had people had testosterone. Same thing if they had metformin, same thing. If like more people hadn't read a true time, But all of them, no, of course not. But there's so many things that would go away. So I think it's a money thing. And then there is also, too, the aspect of it. I also think, like a lot of doctors, they can only do what they do.
If you're never presented with data, or at least go outside. This is what I thought when we talked philosophically about this stuff. I never want to be so behold, like if I found out right now, if every peptide that I ever made a video about that we talked about was like completely worthless or damaging to the body or something like that, I would say I was wrong about this. How many times did I have this like a relationship conversation? How may times? No, no, serious though. I think we can talk about it because it would be helpful to people.
how many time do I say, hey, was I wrong and I know I'm wrong, and sorry that was that wrong? I am going to change. I mean, I have to say that because sometimes like I am, yeah. I think when we can let go of like being able to. Say that that's when you can start to make progress. Yeah. And doctors, just like other people, some doctors it's hard to, say a person. But when I can say I was wrong. When you let yourself allow yourself to be wrong about stuff.
All of a sudden, the world opens up to this right now. And for me, you see how easy it is in our relationship to be like, hey, I was wrong. No one wants to blame me. But I'm just saying, if you can reinforce that pattern of behavior in your life, it actually makes things a lot easier. Yeah. We actually talked about that this week. Yeah. Yeah, remember I was like, see, I wasn't wrong. See how easy that was for me to say, no, it's so good. No, because it doesn't, honestly, doesn' happen that often that you're that.
You're wrong because you usually write like 90% of the time. Well, you know that I'm just really good at convincing people that no. But I think that's part of it, too, is like it. If you if you are comfortable with being wrong about things, you become a lot better at convincing others of what the right thing is, whether it's an idea, a peptide, an argument in something, because you've actually thought through your head what was right and what is wrong. So is that a psychopath?
No, psychopaths would know it is right. That would be like knowing it was wrong and then still convincing people otherwise. That's a good question too. Is it psychopathic behavior? I think it's actually a fine line because psychopaths know that and then they choose to still lie to people. Whereas someone that's what you would call philosophically grounded and a critical thinker would put that to the test and be very transparent with what
they do. Hopefully that comes across in the material that I think a lot of that has to do with putting ideas to the test every single day, like what works, what doesn't work, and doing that. And I the more people do that, it's actually very freeing. Because so many people build their life on a narrative of this is the way. And then one day they find out that it probably wasn't. But if you're continually doing that throughout your life, you don't build up a house of cards, I think, that was not real.
Anyway, people probably want to hear more about peptides. But it's a good question, Jim. It is a question. You know, we could look at it. And I think part of the issue too is like, when you see the right way to do something, you go through this awakening phase. Like my mom's in the awakening right now. She's like how can people not see this? Like how could people see that as a post-menopausal woman, You just need 10 to 20 milligrams a week of testosterone and everything will change. I remember really being in that phase and I was still doing, I still had my salon.
So I tried to explain this to clients who did not care at all or clients that were extremely against it. And it's just like when you're in an awakening phase, you want to tell everyone, about it, because you know how beneficial it is. And then like, think of a woman that goes and has a hysterectomy. You know, like you want to like shake them away. It can be like what are you doing? Don't do it. But to them, that's the only logical conclusion from their life that they can draw to literally have your God given hystrectomy because now of canal of
creation removed from Yeah. Or go get an ablation done because I'm five words and then you could just take that one. Yeah, it is. It is tough when you see it. I think like I've been doing this long enough now to like where you. See things and you just understand, like, I always tell people like don't get mad at how the world works. Just change what you can change. Because if you get made of how it works, you're like it will never end. You know, Like it'll it would never be something. That's why it's funny. Like talking about like people commenting on videos and stuff.
If people, like, if you disagree with something I say, fine, put it in the comments. That's totally fine. I don't care. Just don' hurt other people. But like go make a video about me. We were doing a live stream with Laura a couple weeks, I guess, last weekend. And there was a guy that was like commenting stuff. He wasn't being mean, but he was saying stuff and she's like hey, why don''t you just go and make video? And it's true, it''s like if your so passionate, Like go make a video about it because there would be people that would love to do it. At one time, Taylor and I were just people, that had never made videos and we decided to make videos.
And then like people will listen to it, you know? So rather than like commenting on stuff, not that there's like, there wrong with commenting, but like rather then just trying to like tear other people down, like go and make video and then you can like actually like start to change the world rather just like comment on the nature of like how bad everything is. So anyway, I digress. This is a good question. Hey, Katie. She says, can you speak a little bit about dosing bioabsorb? I am hormonally optimized and insulin controlled female, 46. My biggest issue is high APOB and LPA.
And my cardiologist is pushing statins. Well, just as we were talking about with cardiologists, what did Upton Sinclair say? He said, don't try to teach a man something that his income depends upon him not understanding. So that's a good one. Yeah. So your cardiologist's income depends upon you taking statins to which you are going to destroy your health long-term. And there's way better things. Even if like Reddit True Tide beats statin at their own game, you know, and they make you healthier and live longer.
That's not a tough one Yeah, but to the point of bioabsorbs, the bio absorb has 125 milligrams of dihydro berberine and 125 mg of metformin. So Katie, knowing you and knowing your lifestyle as a woman or age and everything, I would probably just take one of those at every meal. Yeah. What do you think about that? Yeah? So if you eat four to five small meals a day fortified, like one capsule at a meal, that's what I've been doing. I just took two with some meals. And then she's fasting.
You can take one in the morning for fasting. Yeah. One of them. If you're fasting all day, I would just take maybe one or two in a morning and then one and two. I take two at night. So you can do two and one at two a night or like I just like one meal because it helps with the glucose disposal of that. But it's a really good product. And also what's cool about that is people worry about metformin. We have a full spectrum of vitamin complex. It always makes the rounds. Yeah, it goes through cycles.
I don't know what social media platform will spin up some crazy stuff about Metformins, and then people get all up in arms about it. But Metforming continues to be one of the most polarizing topics in the whole longevity anti-aging space. It's crazy. I wrote an email the other day, I probably should make an update video on 100 reasons to take Metformin. They're like study after study. Again, going back to studies. Study after, study, after. It keeps coming about how good MetFormin is for people.
At the right dose, you know, and if you're doing bioabsorbing, or taking five of those a day, that's still, I think, would that be 625 milligrams of metformin with dihydroberberin? Like, it's not even close to the dosing that there was even deleterious things that were found. In a lot of cases, those deliterious thing that was found was like 10 grams of Metformins per day. You know? So it just continues to be very polarizing. But to which I will say, if are afraid of the met formin, because a of that comes from fear, the polarization comes form fear.
Try it for a month and see what happens. And hey, you never know. It might go well for you. You can always stop it. Let's see. I don't know if I can answer this question, but I'll try. So Max says, have you seen anyone get off dialysis using peptides, put my kidneys out using painkillers, then they have fibrosis on them and I believe it's reversible. The only thing I could say is 10 milligrams of SS-31 per day. Yeah. Again, I've seen that help a lot with kidneys, in terms of dialyses.
But I have seen it reverse pretty dramatic issues with people's kidneys. That would be my best guess. Emily says, can you discuss whether HGH is good for active perimenopausal women or just in general and how much? So I would say yes, HG is beneficial for every woman, for everybody, but definitely Um, even perimenopausal women, it's so good just because our growth hormone production decreases.
And probably now just with everything that's done to our environment is going to decrease probably even sooner in ages. But, um, yeah, how much I would say for just like an optimal range anywhere between one or two, I use, five days a week. Do we want to talk about synatropin versus genitropine? What do you think? I actually like synotropin better than genitropine.
We used that for a while, but I personally retain less water on synatropane and it is actually cheaper. So that's always a win with me because usually I don't normally end up liking the cheaper No one, no one ever accused you of having cheap taste. That's for sure. So I do, I think what's interesting for women too is so on the clicker, there's, so I'm a click of a Senate open pen, five clicks as one IU.
It's a lot easier to get like half an IU Because on the genotropin, the smallest increment is 0.3 milligrams, which is .9 IUs. Whereas like with the centotrope, you can start with like half an IU. I still think there's a benefit to actually like a quarter and half and IU of growth hormone. You might not feel anything or see like body recomp changes, but there is, when they've looked at it, there are thymic regrowth to help with your immune system and help asleep from it. So I think for women, especially like small, I've talked to tons of women who are like 100 pounds.
they might not want to, I use a growth hormone because that might be a lot. Yeah, that may be too much for them. But like for you too, is completely fine. And like everybody's going to respond differently. Like some people like might retain more water on synotrope and it just depends like, everybody is a little bit different. So there is I can't remember who told us that. I think it might have been Alex. It just depends. Also too, like for women, just because I've had a lot of questions about this lately is that you really need to give your body like a good four to six
weeks to really adjust to being on growth hormone because you are going to retain a little bit of water in the beginning. Yeah. Um, I don't think the water retention is as bad as like Tessa Morellen. personally for me, but you are water retention is normal with it. So just give it, you know, give several weeks and get adjusted. And then you really don't like you'll feel a difference, But you Really won't see, I feel like it took like six months for Me to really start seeing like
the muscular structure start changing. Um, because I started taking growth hormone. way before taking testosterone. And that's, it took about that to really start seeing that muscular structure start changing and developing. Yeah, I always tell people, assuming you're not doing like a bodybuilding, and this is not a buddy building conversation, this for like, optimization. Yeah. This is so like there's a use case, obviously, in the body building. That's not what we're talking about. And that's where people get mad. Oh, synotropin sucks compared to gene tropin.
It's like yeah, of course, if you like trying to be 250 pounds or 400, 300 pound mass monster. We're just talking like the longevity purposes. For that case I like synatropine. Gene tropine is great. but it's cheaper and for what I want, which is like two I use a day, you know, it was perfect. But I always tell people with growth hormone, It's one of those things. You might not even really feel anything for six months other than maybe better sleep, but then like six month then you're going to wake up and be like, wait a second, my whole physique is changing.
Like my waist is getting tighter for a man, like my shoulders are getting broader. It is just kind of one those thing. And also too, this is obviously within, You can't go to the sushi buffet But growth hormone keeps you lean. Like there's no doubt about it. That's one thing I always just don't forget to talk about. This is like someone that stays on even one to two, I use it for hormone. It just keeps it lean like over time. So to answer the question, pair men and positive women, yeah, of course, growth is about as good as it gets.
Here's a good question. What's up, Dave? He says, are you working Vessagen or Folistatin 344 in your current protocol? And if so, what dosing? I'm not using Folastatin right now because I don't have any. And I will say this just about Folestatin. We don' have this yet, but in the next few weeks, I am talking with a super secret mad scientist right our team is, and we will have a modified version of Folostatin that does not bind to Activen. Now, what that means is you get none of the drawbacks of using higher doses of polystatin.
Because if you use higher dosages, eventually when you inhibit myostatin that way, you can suppress the immune system and then you'd get like all these bad side effects if can do higher dose. Whereas this by not binding to active in, and also I think there's like an albumin binder or something like that to extend like the release of it into your system. And what we have been told and we will see how this works on practice, but this will come out at some point this year that people will have access to this. You will basically within two months be able to put on.
five to 10 pounds of skeletal muscle, basically like augment your physique to what you want it to be. And this is a man or a woman, because this like independent of like sexual hormones. So basically we would be able to use this type of phallostatin to in two months augment you're physique, to which you wanted to, be using one injection a week. Then after that basically take one, injection per month or every two, months to maintain that physique over time. Would you be injecting it into the... Just sub-q? Yeah, this one would be that. And then obviously your training would dictate how it's going to help with the muscle development.
Correct. Will it do anything if you sit on the council today? Probably a little bit, but you're not going like a creep muscle mass, obviously, if your not training. So that's coming. That's one thing that is behind the scenes right now. I can't really say too much more about it until we get it and start experimenting on ourselves with it. But we should at some point have that commercially available. And from what we're told, this super secret mad scientist has developed hundreds of patents and it's sold stuff to major drug companies,
it will probably become an approved drug at some point in the next four or five years. And it'll probably be paired with GLP ones and some some help for people with like, you know, for preventing muscle loss on GP one. Now to Vessagen, I've been using Vesagen I think for the last two weeks, i love Vestagen so far, Taylor's been How do I put my finger on? Vestigen is one of those things. So it's the blood vessel bioregulator. It makes everything better. so it kind of like an amplifier because it enhances blood flow.
And when you enhance blood flows, like everything's going to be better, so do you necessarily feel anything? No. I think that if I could compare it to feeling one thing, it is kind like I took 10 milligrams of Cialis per day without having to take the C. Yeah, no, that's a good that good comparison. Yeah. And I would just say it's probably I mean, we were really sore this week because we trained really hard this we went on our honeymoon and 10 days now but and we want to look up our Honeymoon but I will say I think there is an enhanced recovery aspect to it probably an enhance.
You know, I did I didn't think about this. There's an enhancement in cardio like this morning I was doing I'm doing cardio I got 700 calories on the bike and I wasn't reading the whole time I Yeah, obviously it was like I was sweating, you know, my heart. Yeah. Definitely. I feel like it's definitely helping like with cardio for me. Cause I mean, I talked about how I'm not a cardio person that actually like, it's making cardio feel like effortless to do. And I do think that it is helping to like with the pump in the gym of just like being able to push and go more.
I would say it was yesterday. Yeah. It's like VentFort but stronger. VentForce is the oral version of Vessagen. So Vesagen is great. The odor and unhealthy or someone is, they'll probably notice more of a benefit. And also to these bioregulators work over time. So even we're going to use it for like a 30 day cycle, the effects extend well beyond that. You can use like two times per year for 30 days and get benefit from it. But it's kind of just one of those ones like we are doing Vessagen and Belon right now.
I'm not expecting anything big out of it, It just, I don't know. There's just something you can't like put your finger on that's like, man, there's something there. Now, do you want, now that brings up like Vlon. Do you wanna talk about like the VLON? Have you been using it so far? Yeah. So, actually gonna be doing a video on this, but Vlon, we've been, yeah. I've using twice a day. At night I just been injecting it sub-Q into my stomach. And then in the morning I'd been injected it into the top of my foot just cause, mentioned last week I've been having issues where they're I thought it
was cleaner fasciitis but I don't think it's cleaner fascitis now basically my hip flexors are so tight that now it's to the point because I'm not the best about getting body work done. I don't stretch every single day. Only stretch before I lift. So that's me having to be better about changing stuff. But basically that getting so tied to where the the pain in my feet are actually, I'm actually getting pain and my feed because of like my hip flexors in,
my calf muscles being so tight. And to the point, like, it, mean it hurts like on my heels. Like at this point here, lady, It hurts in the morning when I go to stand up and when go walk, when sitting, and find that anytime I put weight on them, it hurts. And I've been injecting, um, I injected cartilax into my foot once and it was just way too painful. I think also where we injected it wasn't the smartest place. Yeah. You did it in like the, uh, heel, like in the side, on the of my heel.
Whereas, and now I'm just like inject like on top of. My foot, this is my butt. Um, but I'd been. Injecting the lawn into the half of foot and like it, Like, honestly, like I told Hunter yesterday, I don't know if it's like placebo, but like, my feet hurt so bad yesterday and I had body work done for the first time the day before. And like within like less than 10 minutes after injecting my foot with that, the pain had gone from like a nine down to like four.
Yeah. Well, it makes sense because it's an anti-inflammatory peptide. What's interesting, I think the best way I said it in the video I made about it, to me, in my experience, this is my own experience. I can't say anyone else. It's almost like you combined BPC and thymacin together. Yeah, because if you systemically like I feel like when I've used it systemic Lee, it feels very similar to thymus and just like the immune system enhancement, the digestion enhancement in my stomach. But it also feels like PPC at the same time.
And obviously, like it helped you with inflammation in your foot. Would you say it's like comparable to BPC? Or better? I would say better. Okay, I'd say is better for what I'm dealing with. It's been better than BPC and TB has been. Yeah. So maybe like, if you could tolerate, cause cartilax does sting when you inject it. And this one does cartilage. I would say cartillax stings. Velon stains not as bad as cartillax. Yeah. I wonder if you can combine Belon and Carlax.
See how that would do. Yeah, well, I'm just saying for people in general, yeah, no, it sucks to inject. DeCiro says, is there a peptide or something other than botox injection of muscles in certain areas of the face or migraines? I don't know. I mean, migraines, it really just depends. Migrains, is it being triggered from hormones? Because hormone deficiency, that can trigger migains, electrolytes, magnesiums, mineral efficiency.
That's going to make a big play with migraine. It depends on what it is that's triggering it. But I don't. I've heard of people using the BPC strips to help with migraines. Also injecting SS-31, I heard people have had really good success with SS 31 stopping migraine in 30 days. I mean, this would probably be better than Botox, safety-wise.
It's so migraines is one of those things is so blood pressure issues, hydration issues. It is just really tough. Yeah, it's a hormone issue. So we think about this. Robin says, I ran out of my testosterone cream. Can I use my husband's? Is it the same thing? So it is not the thing thing because your husband is going to be a lot higher of a dose. If you're able to break down and figure out the math on getting the same amount that you have versus his.
Yes, you can. I've done that in the past, but just if you need to do it to get you through until your prescription comes in, do, it, I would not continue to keep doing it just because again, um, and I talked about this, like, cream is going to convert your DHT higher. And so because your cousins is willing to be prescribed at a higher dose, being higher too. So I mean, as long as you can figure out like click amount, like how much can equal out to be yours.
You can, but I means it's gonna be probably, I think so small, and it can be sort of small amount. Like it gonna help. It's better than nothing, it probably not even gonna able to get absorbed that. Not gonna absorb that much of it. for the amount that you'd have to, for this small amount at stake. This is where when things like this happen, it behooves all of us to have our own source of testosterone and our only diluted testosterone for women. But also to people, and I get it, people are really afraid, testosterone, really are afraid.
Taylor and talk about this all the time because so many of the women in your group are so dead set on finding a doctor. Look, doctors are great. I love a lot of doctors. You don't need a doctor for this. If you just- And there's only one doctor that I loved. Yeah. And then people complain about being too expensive. It's like, what did you think? You know, it's not going to be covered by insurance. Like I understand people have fixed amount of money. Yes. But you don't, what I'm saying is like, you won't even have to do that. You could really do this for under a thousand bucks a year.
Actually the whole breakdown. Yeah. So you get, even if your husband has testosterone prescribed, he can take one ML out of it. you can dilute it down with a grape seed oil. If it's in grape, seed, oil that becomes 10 weeks for a moment, really longer than just 10. Weeks. you get that and then you dilute it down, you have that. You can source from offshore pharmacies, desiccated thyroid and progesterone, and you're good to go.
And that's your whole non-stack right there. That costs less, probably like 500 bucks a year, if we're being honest, we know what we are doing. I get it with the doctors, but I think in cases like this, I'm not a fan of the cream, Taylor's not I would just have that. For instance, if Taylor were to run out of her injectable testosterone because she gets a compound of 20 milligrams per milliliter, I'd have methods right now in five minutes that I could have her a whole vial made in my house because I have my testosterone.
I pull one ml out, put nine mls of grape seed oil in, boom, she's good for 10 weeks and she injects 10 milligrams of testosterone per week. You know, it is, I get it with the doctor thing, but you don't, what I'm telling people is where there's a will, there is a way, and there are absolutely a ways. This is good question. So, is red true tide known to cause fatigue and sleepiness? I am macro-dosing 750 micrograms four times a week, so yes, this is very common.
We could speculate as to why this happening, at the end of the day, comes down to this. Red trutide is taking your metabolism. It's increasing it. And also, too, it's doing a suppressing appetite. So you're naturally just eating less. You're burning more calories and you are eating more. What does that do? It creates a caloric deficit. When we are in a Caloric Deficit, we have less energy that is coming into the body, and we're expending more energy, so you'll be tired. Now, the question is, how do we fix it? Do you stop the red truetide? No, you don't have to. In a way, this is actually a good thing because it shows that it's working.
It's like, okay, and this means like the body. So what I was telling Taylor this, cause we just started Red True Tide back this week because we're obviously going on a honeymoon. We'd been off for probably six or seven weeks and we noticed the same thing. And we were like oh man, like in the afternoon, I'm kind of tired. I said, yeah, because what's happening is like almost like you're getting another workout. Like you are burning that many more calories and you taking less food. What happens if you work out two times a day? typically, you're more tired. So that's what's happening. The question is, like, what do you do about it?
One, we can look at something like a MOTC or an SLU to help with mitochondrial energy, because that can help rev up energy to make us feel good. I actually think, though, What would be even better than that? And this is what we could have done this week that I think of. Injectable 5-amino, and or NAD would, is the way to fix this. Yeah. So if you get tired on Reta-Trutide, injectable 5, like, yeah, every time I take injectible 5-amino and, or, Nad, because you can combine them together. But even if we just do the 5 amino by itself, cause the N-A-D, I like to do intramuscularly.
We've been doing 5 amino, we haven't. By itself. yeah. we have been. doing it this week though. but I've just, as I was reading this, that's the wave. even if you just get the injectable five amino, I think it's better with the NAD, but you still could just use the Injectable Five Amino itself, that will solve it. There is not a day that I've taken injectible five Aminos that feel tired, like sleepy in the afternoon or anything like that. But it doesn't stem you out or something, it just gives you energy. So I that's the answer to that question, so I'd love to hear feedback from people.
Because Reddit True Tide does make you tired. Especially when you first start on it, You kind of adapt to it and adjust. I want to go back really quick to the hormone topic, just because I did break this down for my women's group about multiple different ways on how you can do hormone replacement therapy treatment yourself outside of using a doctor. And I gave them three different way and three resources to do about doing it.
I mean, basically your yearly costs of like sourcing it and doing it yourself would be about the cheapest that I was able to come up with was $1,700 a year. That's by yourself. Okay. So that's like, and that was like there's those three different ways I broke that down with three different platforms and resources to get.
So. It always, it always strikes me. Look, I grew up, like dirt poor or anything, but like, you know, money wasn't flowing. We'll say that we were very well to do. I'm very blessed. Like, not saying I was. No, we came from very like average blue collar. Yes. My family is about as blue-collar as you get, At 11 years old, in the summers and the weekends, I was laying side with my dad, spreading mulch, digging irrigation systems, that's what I did.
That's one of the biggest blessings of my life that I've been raised that way. I understand what it means to not have disposable income to spend on stuff. When I went to the dentist, they said I need my wisdom teeth taken out. My parents said, good, you can go save up money if you want your wisdom tooth taken off. glad they didn't because now I don't have my wisdom teeth taken out and I'm glad like I think it's a wasteful procedure. But what I am saying is like we didn t have disposable income to do that. And I m very blessed to have the family. Again, like the biggest blessing in my life is the thing I was born into.
Now, I understand. So here's what am I saying. People complain about prices, prices prices. Prices are too high. The world is the way the world. Is if you want lower prices for something, guess what? You have to work harder to go find prices that are lower. So right now, if I wanted, let's see, what do I want? Do I wanna couch? Well, Guess what, If I went on to Facebook marketplace, I'd go and find the couch for free and I have take my truck and go pick it up and do it.
And I would find a couch free. I could also go to the furniture store and get a $10,000 couch if I want to spend the money. Some people are going to spent the $1000 on the couch and they're going deliver it. You're gonna get white glove delivery service. And some people were going on Facebook marketplace and find a couch for free. Guess what? At the end of the day, you still have a coach. some People get one for three or they do the work to get it and other people spend money on. So in a world where people buy goods and services, You can buy and pay for something, for the convenience of it and the quality of. Or you can source things yourself.
In the case of doing hormone therapy, instead of, and this is because people are deficient in testosterone, so complaining about the price of things, figure a way out. Figure a how to find things because there are ways on this planet to. Find things that fit within your budget or guess what? A lot of people don't realize you can make more money. So like, when I was starting in real estate, I made $22,000 my first year in Real Estate when i was 23 years old.
But guess what? I also had side hustles, i sold firewood to people, delivered fire with the people. I actually still probably should go deliver fire wood to People just because it's fun, but in the wintertime, like I found ways to do stuff. And I think some people just forget to realize and I know like, oh, like I'll have like people say like excuses or whatever. People just love to complain about the prices for stuff. Like, Oh, I have this like either make more money or find ways to source stuff for cheaper in which both of those are an option.
Well, I also broke down like, cause this is on a doc that everybody in my group gets. I broke them like the average costs that like someone spends on. A cocktail or alcohol ends up being $52,000 a year. And then going to Starbucks three times a week ends being like about over $2,00 a. Year. If you go to start bucks, three tons a but then you can get a hormone replacement therapy for at least like, what I say, 1700. So. But then they also, too, people, even if they were to pay 7,000 a year for a, for, uh, doctors, which is what about it would be to get it.
Yeah. Let's just say they pay that, but like what is your health more to you? And I think that's where people still don't understand is like your $7,00 investment into your hormones is going to save you hundreds of thousands of dollars. Because chemotherapy is about anywhere between 10 $30,000. Yeah. So it's it. I mean, people just don't like have the capacity to think about money. A really good book, if you ever want to read this is called Misbehaving.
It's by Robert Thaler, it is an economics book. And you really, It is a really great insight into how people think of money because people only think that money is like a risk. Like how can I stop the risk? They forget that there is this whole other side of like you can make more money or like the money that you're spending actually like goes way more, you know, like in, in the long run. So there's opportunity costs and everything, but sorry, sorry to go on a rant about that. Steve says, I have a question about testosterone.
If I want to get to the best bang for my buck for weight loss, but you're on a budget, would it be better to take 0.5 for eight weeks, 1.0 for four weeks or 2.00 for two weeks? Probably 0,5, for 8 weeks. I think you would probably, if that's a limited budget. Yeah. Craig says peptide cheat sheet doses Tesla 1 milligram and IPA 300 micrograms, put the test at the blend at 300, 100 micro grams. Why? Can I triple your triple dose recommended? Yeah, man. You can do whatever you want. Remember the cheat sheet is just guidelines, dude.
So like the cheatsheet is not the Bible. I would say experiment for you and figure out what works. Or you could do 300 micrograms to 100 micro grams of AM and PM. Then you're doing 600 and 200. It's really up to you, man. Some people get too much water retention in that dose. They want to cut the dose down because that's a really strong blend. There is no right answer. there's only your ability to experiment and I'll say, just try, try what you want and see, I would start lower, see how you feel and then you can build
up and how that feels. So Xionic in the house. What's up, dude? Let's do it. Emily said you look so good, Taylor. Diane says, help me. I went all in with sugar diet and day two was so sick the tummy. How can I just move slowly into it? Love you guys. I'm going to move slowly into it. I mean, to be honest, the last thing I want to talk about is the sugar diet.
But here's the easy way to do it if I were to ease into. Assuming this person's just eating like a normal diet, I would get up, have maybe some orange juice and a banana or an apple for breakfast. for lunch, I would eat like a banana and some honey or just like whatever fruit you like peaches, pears. And then probably for a snack in the afternoon, and have some more juice, maybe a little bit of honey, a bit fruit.
Then for dinner, just eat lean protein. fish, chicken, turkey. I know that like people go like, Oh, this is a solution. And I think the lean protein is fine. Yvonne T steak tips and some rice. That's the easiest way to do it. If you just did that every day, fat will melt off of you. What did I not include in there? A bunch of extra fat on stuff. and I'm thinking that dinner is okay to have probably like 10 to 30 grams of fat probably. Yeah. But I would just say like minimize the added fat or just don't add any at all and just eat, you know, eat and eat lean protein and rice until you're full.
What do you think? I think also, too, it depends on like what sourcing like, what kind of fruit are you eating? Is it super like acidic? is it like going to have like a higher amount of fiber? Like, think about like your selections as well, to. I mean, I could make a difference. Banana seemed to seem to be very palatable for most people. Yeah. It's like if you just ate some banana with honey.
But if someone's eating like a lot of apples that can like, you know, that could be too much on their stomach or they're doing like too I guess if you're coming from like doing carnivore or keto or stuff too, like when you change the nature of what's going into your stomach so much, there probably is like a whiplash effect or something. Well, I think also too it just, it is an adjustment period. Just like, when people go paleo and carnival or they have like the weird like hangover feeling, think anytime you dramatically change your diet and you
are adding high amount of any type of food source into your body that your bodies not used to having that much of, there's going to be an adjustment period. So I would say even like for me, like the first week was off, but then like as time went on, it got better. Yeah. I really think like if someone, even if you didn't want to fast and I still like fasting just cause I like it, If you just ate like fruit for breakfast, fruit, for lunch, and fruit first snack in the afternoon, then for dinner, just have lean protein and rice or potatoes.
Like you literally, like you cannot like not lose weight doing that. And I'm talking like eating until you're full too. It's where people add in like seed oils and a bunch of extra fat and stuff. Oh, I think it's just high fat. Seed oils is just the biggest downfall. Yeah. I mean, it definitely, definitely works, but move along. Sheena, what's up? She says, GLP is a metformin dangerous, titrate down on a dose, your students taking with your GLp3.
Yes, I take met formin every single day. I think everyone should take Metformins with the GLPs and they're not dangerous. Are any medicines dangerous while on the glp? antidepressants? Those are dangerous anyway. Yeah. What is dangerous on a GLP? Alcohol. Alcohol? Yeah, there you go. I mean, I obviously we're both like, very anti alcohol, but like seriously, like If you are going to consume alcohol, like I would say just skip taking
all peptides, skip all your metformin that day. Just cause like if you're drinking alcohol with the GLP, it is going from like the feedback I get from so many people, It's going make you sick. Yeah. GLPs kind of like especially trisapatite. I've had people have worse side effects. with alcohol combining that. But I've had people also say the same thing with RETTA. Yeah. I guess maybe she thinks too like dangerous in the sense it's going to like lower your blood sugar too much, but it doesn't really work like that,
so like GLPs help you, I mean Rettatruetide, maybe you can make the argument more so than Truzapetite, they don't lower blood They help your body get better. It's creating insulin to bring down your blood sugar when you need to. Kind of the same thing with metformin. And it doesn't just like automatically lower your. Blood sugar. Helps your buddy get. Better at lowering blood pressure when it needs to insulin lowers your budget. So like if we just shot up a bunch of insulin because we're fasting, we've just. Shot like eight I use of. Insulin right now. in 10 minutes, there's gonna be a whole lot of pain that you're gonna have.
I was gonna say like insulin, I would just be careful with insulin because you become much more insulin sensitive if you were using insulin for recreational purposes. not to bring it back up, but like sugar diet, like with metformin or Jardians, I would maybe say, if you're going to be doing a sugar fasting day, i would not do the met formin in the morning because for some people it can cause their blood sugar to drop too much.
Yeah, I think it gets it like your body, it helps your, body again, lower the blood sugar. So it almost has like a insulin like effect. Yeah. Because there's nothing to blunt the, the bludger curve with the fat and the protein. Your body's just like, boom, like the insulin works that you're making work so fast. Now I've done metformin and Jardians while I'm sugar fasting and I'd never had issues. Um, but I tend to like I figure if you like I would save maybe the, the Jordians in that form and more to like put around like the starch meals.
Yeah. Because there's going to be more of an insulin response from the starchy meals, so. But yeah. And then Diane says she's just cutting fat on the diet. Let's see, here's Jim. What is a good well-rounded multivitamin for men and women? I'm using, I've been using Thorne's AM Multividamin Elite, like their Elite Multividamin AMPM. Yeah, they usually come in a dual box. It comes with two, so there's like a morning one and a nighttime one, and that's what we use. That's why I have been use it for years and I love it.
I do think, because Chris Gethen messaged me, Unmatched is coming out with like an Ungevity multividamins. and he's gonna send me some, so I'll try that. So that'll be pretty cool. What I think is cool about that that's nice is it like, I mean it has a lot of the other stuff too in it. vitamin D, you know, like the other ancillary ones because I like those little packs. That's just saying that, but like his, uh, his products are honestly like some of my favorite products. We use them every day. And it's not just because of like, yeah, You guys being friends.
It's like it really is. Well, before, even before we were really close friends, I bought, we we're using this stuff. So I'm naturally, it was like as a customer. Yeah. but it is the protein's good. It makes the best protein ice cream. So someone also told me too, that Podium doesn't make the vanilla buttercream anymore. I don't know if I haven't bought it in a while, but someone told that that was really good protein. But yeah, unmatched is good, the pre-workouts are good the, yeah.
The protein is really the amino acids. Everything is like, I've not had anything from unmatch that I Alonzo, good last name. He says, I tried the sugar diet, but it made me feel so sleepy. Why do you think I had that reaction? I don't know. Usually it has the opposite reaction from people, But it could be too. I dunno if you were like low carb before your body could Be going through like an adaptation phase of like being able to handle the blood sugar changes
that you're going through. And I would say probably give it like a week or two, and it might go away. Or you could just not be eating enough. Like a lot of people don't realize like when they're eating, like, when you are eating fruit all day, you re actually not eating that many calories. But it feels like it because it's there's a lo of volume in the water. Yeah. So like you' re not actually eating them in calories and then like if you're not eating calories, what tends to happen, you don't have as much energy. And so you feel a little sleepy. So it kind of like naturally induces a caloric deficit because you just don t tend to eat as m uch.
Whereas like, think about like us, the food that I always think of is like peanut butter. As I look at our dogs, they probably want some peanut right now. They probably won t breakfast. Yeah. Like peanut but You can literally like, we could literally, like get two spoons of peanut butter, of like Jif or Skippy peanut, and you just eat that. And that's like 800 calories right there. You don't even feel like you've eaten anything. Versus like fruit, how much pineapple you have to eat to get the same amount of calories to your stomach.
So it's just one of those things. That could be why. Let's see. We'd love to hear how you guys would suggest making the eyedrops with BPC-177 and if need anything else added, have some blurred vision. What I do to leaky blood vessels is doctor says. So Taylor actually has a video on her channel of exactly how to do this, but it's very simple. You just get a vial of Bpc or normal. In that video I use Bbc and TB 500. Yeah. And you can do BBc TB500 and instead of using backwater, which I've heard of people using backwater, I just wouldn't do it because it probably burns.
Just use contact solution. So just put three mls of contact solutions. I would personally, like when I have done it myself, put 3 ml of the contact to solution into the vial, because this is a 3 ml vile, meaning it holds three ml's. Pull that out and then I inject it into an empty eyedropper and I add like seven mLs more of water to dilute it down more so that there's less dose. view one or two drops, like I like doing like two or three drops in each eye to get the requisite dose, but you wouldn't have to do that.
You can use three amount to Do it. It's just going to be more concentrated. But like when I made it, I'd like to. Do that and then just keep in the fridge because technically a lot of the back, the contact solution doesn't Have preservatives in it like the Backwater to Be able to Yeah, to be able to keep it sterile, but if you keep in the fridge, you should be good, and then just use it in a couple of weeks. Yes, we, what's up Sarah?
Sarah. Did I miss one? No. Okay. So do you both have or rings? Yes, we do. I would say it's worth the investment. It's more so to just from like a, I don't worship the data for my or ring. it just kind of helps give me a baseline. And I think too, like when we're, when you're experimenting with the stuff all the time, it. Good to have like informed data about it, but like, yeah, a lot of days I didn't even look at it because it was like I base my recovery more on how I feel
than like what my ring says. And also for women, it's, they're also good to just help with like keeping up with your temperature with their cycle and everything with ovulation. Yeah. What was really cool with, like, the bimini oxygen therapy for the tub. is I've never had an HRV over 100. And the first week that I did that, like all the days after my HRB was like over a hundred or like in the nineties. Yeah. Which is pretty cool because usually it's like, in a sixties or seventies, which is like decent, but that just showed me I was,
wow, I am recovering a lot better than that. Let's see. Cynthia says, I'm going for labs on Monday. I've heard at the CJC this week due to some weird hormone stuff with it. Wondering if I'll see testosterone and IGF-1 affected anything else to look for testosterone? No, you will not. IG-F1, maybe, but a lot of times it won't even do that. So like the body has a self-regulating mechanism of like, it would be very hard for your IGF to be basically like over six or 700 if you're taking YIPPA
and CJC. Because it's just stimulating your body to produce more, but no, like I don't think you will see any weird hormone stuff. No. That sounds confusing. I've had weird hormone stuff since starting IPA. So getting labs. Yeah. Does this person take testosterone? I don't know. This is, um, Cynthia, I emailed me about this.
Think it's more hormonal shift and it was maybe just coincidental that was happening around the time that you're taking, you started your IPO. But the fact that your going and getting blood work done is good. Yeah, blood work's always good to do. I mean, I don't know what's confusing about that. Trying to understand what I said was confusing. They emailed me earlier this week.
Celestine says I've had severe histamine reaction to MOTC, including passing out. And I have tolerated in the past up to 10 milligrams. the bad reaction, severe with three milligrams, bad bile should avoid it. I mean, I just think the dosing's too high. Just take on the dozing. Like one milligrams is a dose per day of lot C. So the higher the dose, the more likely you'll have that anaphylactic shock reaction. Maybe 500 micrograms might even be better for you. I wonder too, sometimes if MOTC is making people so insulin sensitive, like that reaction is them like going hypo.
Yeah. Because when I've used even low doses of Motsy with low dosage of insulin for recreational purposes, I have much more like I got to be way more careful. Taking MotC with insulin. But no, even to I don't know how big this person is, but like even two milligrams is probably too high. I would do it like half a milligram. So. Steve Veeds says, I'm already on Impli-CGC, TURS, Cagri and GHK.
I started seven weeks ago at 250, and now 200. Whoa. That's crazy. Crazy. It's amazing. Feel the best I've ever felt. Couldn't have said it better myself. Yeah. Good job, man. It is crazy. I mean, this is obviously not a person that's just like that we've reached out to to like just hype up our chat. Like that what's possible with people and I just saw the always is like amazing because like people like This doesn't work for me.
This just comes in and says like, Hey, like I trained and I took this and it works. Yeah. He says, I want to shred the last ever in visceral fat and a 3d body composition. Is this a good choice to add sex? Yes. All those things are really good. The test probe, some people metabolize like If I take test probe, I almost have to do it twice a day. Like that's how fast I burn through it. But like some guys are good doing it every other day and it's fine for them. So I would just say like I don't use test prop on the regular, but when I have like, like crash basically like by the app,
if I'd taken the morning, Like I'm crashing out that as a kid say crash out. Yeah. About like seven, six or seven in the day, and I can feel it, so like for him, for that case, would you suggest an anthate instead? It's up to him. I think every guy should just use them. Like I've used everything except testosterone acetate, which I want to find and try because I heard that's even better than test prop. But yeah, just try and see. In terms of the actual things, yeah absolutely.
Aaron says, are you guys planning to have kids? Yes, we are. If so, how do you deal with the effect from T? The only thing we'll have to do is just use HMG slash ATG. I might even just try testigen first and see how that does. But the funny thing for women is testosterone actually enhances fertility. In a lot of cases for woman, they use women that are doing IVF treatment to use testosterone to enhance their fertility, so. It didn't start ovulating. We're getting positive ovulation tests. Um, come back until I started injecting testosterone.
Yeah. So that's the answer. I mean, obviously we haven't done that yet because we hadn't started the process. We will be very soon, but that how it will document. People, I think people, again, how many men have used testosterone and still help their wives conceive, you know, like bodybuilders have. I know that's what I think. And like you're talking about, body builders that have literally like use so much drugs and they still have it.
A lot of times it's like when they're using a lot other drugs. So again, I don't want to speak too soon for us, but we actually like haven't even had that on our radar just because we haven' t like proactively started having kids. But yeah, we'll document all that and make guides and stuff. Sherry says, my friend has rheumatoid arthritis. Wondering if there's any peptides for your helper. Testosterone, first. And then I would say probably BPC, TB 500. I've even heard of LL 37, helping a lot of people with rheuma toroid arthritis,
probably like a thiamine and alpha one and thymogen two, because a lotta times it's like an immune issue. So I'd start there. But when I hear, yeah, I think a wanna women, the- I always thought I had that. Yeah, it's just kind of those weird. So like, say like cut back on the amount of fat that they're consuming seed oils. Um, cause a lot of times, like even when I thought I was eating clean, I wasn't eating cleaned years ago. Uh, so cutting back. Seed oils and putting back even like on healthy fats as well, too.
I think a of people eat way too much fat in their diet. Fat is pushed now. You guys heard of anyone having a vasovagal reaction after a peptide injection? I had one a week ago after adult IMGH injection. Not sure if I inject them in the vein or why my body reacted. I haven't. Um, I mean you could have, yeah, don't know though. When I have it personally. So Lisa said I was told by traditional imagine from a OB GYN that I should just go to my PCP and get a nerve pill that really needed was BHRT and needs
armor thyroid to do that. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, Viking says it's also easier to say you're wrong when you are never wrong. My wife will tell you lol. I agree to an extent, but as Sarah tell, you like there's, also to like, I think it is as a man, You would actually be less attracted to me if I let you just like run over me all the time. So even though you would attempt Like a lot of women attempt to run over their man, like emboss him around.
What they're really saying is like a desperate cry for help to be led. Yep. Am I wrong? No, you're not wrong, because it's like I've been in relationships like that. That's my interpretation I have worked with. I used to always think about, I worked for so many couples when I was selling real estate, and I would see that, just ladies bossing this guy around because he's actually desperately wishing that he would just like take charge of the situation, you know, and then you're just going, yeah, like, that's, um, now are there some cases where it's just like put it to bed?
Yes. Like, okay, it like it on it over. We're like arguing about something that stupid, but I do think there's cases to like where like if we're arguing something, either we'll know I'm right. I want her to know that like I'm letting this go, but you're wrong about this. And likewise, if it's vice versa, like if I am wrong, about something, I guess you let it go. I still love the fact that I was right about the egg situation.
I mean, it's true. Like I have the first to admit, like, because I don't want to feel bloated. Basically, Taylor is saying that like eggs make you bloat it pre-workout if you eat eggs pre workout to which I was always like I think you're just being weird about it. And then I stopped eating eggs. You told me I wasn't weird and I didn't like it? Well, you are kind of weird with eggs? You go back and forth with a bunch of eggs and you like oh, I just want some eggs so bad right now. Eggs are the most disgusting thing. To where it was like. I like Eggs, but I'm not like I don't have to have them, but I also like them.
And I say that with all of our stuff. Yeah, there you go. Sheena says the same thing. But no, I think it's good. Like I said, it is okay to be wrong. Arthur says I bought three bottles of reddit and store it to them still in a powder form in the cupboard. Is that okay or no, that's totally fine. Like you could still store there for at least like a year or two before you even put them in the fridge. Yeah.
Catherine says, how can I reduce the histamine response to peptides upon injection? I'd say a lot of times too good backwater. Good back water. Thymacinophil-1 is good, like a microdose of that oftentimes will help. Thiamalin is a good one too to like stop this like overactive immune response. And then even though I've heard of a microtose GLPs also help as well. So even like 0.25 milligrams of RETTA or TERS can help with like that over active immune to them.
L Viking says, when taking SS31 and SLU regularly, is there any need to supplement particular vitamins, covectors, or minerals to replenish any targeted depletion that results from regular use of these compounds, similar to the need for B12 supplementation with meporin? Not necessarily. If there was any one, I would say it would be glutathione. But in a lot of cases, SLUs can over time increase ROS in the body to which like the SS 31 is actually like helping combat that. But it might not be enough.
And I think that's where the glutathione would come in. So I would say glutothione anyway, but in case of these glutethione works really well for both of those. Scott Sman says, could I do two milligrams of red at twice a week? You definitely could. That would be a lot if that your first time. Yeah, I'd say you can but just like ease into it. Start low and go slow. What's up, Ryan? Catherine says, yeah, I saw that, Catherine.
Yeah, it's interesting. I've never heard of that with KPV, but anything is possible, I think the backwater can cause reactions on up in Catherine's case if that was the issue, but I would try those other ones. Stevie says testosterone preponate sub-q or IM. IM freaks me out a bit going to micro 10 milligrams daily to start and see blood work and possibly up to 15 milligrams along with HGH2 I use a day.
Yeah, I mean, i don't like subq testosterone. I know people do it and it's fine for them. i just don' like it but IM is fine but i would use, depending on how fat you are, you've just lost a lot of weight Stevie. use a 28 gauge one half inch needle to do it. And for most people, that's good enough. You might have to go a little bit bigger, meaning a lower gauge, but for me that works and I don't ever have any issues. I actually think that size needle hurts less than a 31 gauge. A 28-gauge?
Of course it does. No, I think the 28th gauge hurts Oh, you've been a peptide and a Peptide needle because the peptides needle, it's like sharp. So I feel like it like hurts more than because I don't know. That's just probably depends on where you're injecting to that form and dosage. Can you elaborate on the difference in benefit between one gram a day daily dose versus two grams daily? Those SNS and optimized mail with high caloric expenditure.
You know, if I wasn't taking Jordy and I would probably do two grand a But I think with the Jardians, I don't need as much of the metformin. So I do one gram, usually between like 500 milligrams to one. But it's just more, you're just going to have a little bit stronger effect. I would just start at one grams and see how you like it. And then play with two grams, see you how like and then see which one is best.
Does the sauna raise histamines? I have no idea. It's a good question. Maybe. Yeah. I mean, that actually could be a possibility. Detoxing. And yeah, I guess it could go like an immune, like a detox reaction. Do it. No, no, it makes sense. So yeah. But I didn't think about that, but it couldn't have been like detox. Especially if it's like been, overdoing it? Yeah, Is it safe for a 44 year old male not to not cycle off of gene at one and a half to two, I use five on two off.
Second part of that question. If you didn't get a trip for nine months, can one transition to test around a hundred percent without the need to pulse gene tripping. First part, is it save to cycle? Yes. That is like, it's safe to stay on that person as long as you want. You can stay in that for the rest of your life and only benefit. And second part, yeah, you can definitely just stop. The thing that's interesting about growth hormone versus the testosterone axis is, I'll have to find this, but I think when they measured people that were using growth hormones and they stopped, the pituitary recovered function in like three days.
So it's like completely normal. And if you're using testosterone, they're just going to enhance the natural production cycle. Let's see. Becky says, for disk degeneration, would you recommend stacking BPC and TB4, aka TB500, and cycling between BTC and Cardalax? I would just use all of them together for that and see what helps.
And then see where you go from there and how it improves. So, just depends. Let's see. Thank you, Becky, for the congrats. Kamie says, which is best for joints, the BPC, TB500, and KP Combo or Carlyle? I would say all of them. Like all them together work, then you can use all together. JREP, yes, I have heard of bioglutide that's better than RETA and no one knows where to get it or how to it right now.
So basically I think it's just from my understanding is Reta plus an IGF agonism. Yeah. so it helps people like maintain muscle, burn a little bit more fat. But like I said, with that Balasat and stuff, we have a lot more of this could be coming. That's even better. So Rusty says, I'm currently taking 10 milligrams turds, but in a two, five milligram doses and right at two milligrams split twice a week since starting right on my appetite, it's grown enough. It's growing. Even though I am on 10mg turd without any Cagri and net formant. Okay. Yeah.
I think it is totally okay. You can do that. And like I said, because red is so powerful from an energy expenditure standpoint, that's probably what he's experiencing. He's like, yeah, you're burning more calories. Mm hmm. hungrier, even though like, for me, I don't really notice it that much. Maybe sometimes when I sit down to eat, and I start eating, i get a little bit hungier than I normally would. Yeah. But I dunno, like when i like even this week, the red eye, felt it strong, it's like I didn't need Cagri or anything. Because we were talking about that last night at dinner.
Yeah, that happens. So, yeah, you can definitely making you burn to me with so much more calories, but yeah. You can, I think you want to, if you need the CAG in there for more so like food noise and more appetite suppression, definitely add it in. Yeah. Is there any benefit to Vestigen if already taking five milligrams of yalus? Yes. I would, think there is benefit, especially for the brain too, because it's helping with a lot of stuff in the So Ryan says, my run TB 500 BPC seven, one milligram every day, GHK 15 milligrams.
I don't know if he's saying 50 milligrams a day. It was just commenting on what he was doing. Best thing for helping repair soft tissue, tried BPC, GHK, TPF-100, but did not help much. I would try Carlax. Carlex and PEG, MGF, and see how that does. And you can even throw Vlon in there, see if that helps too.
What's the best type of testosterone? I'd say injectable testosterone, incipientate. It's best, my opinion. Enanthate, too, if you're a man. But that's where I will start. We kind of answer that how to prevent histamine reaction. Try Thymosophone, thymolin, microdose of a GLP. See what works. Yep. What's a good daily dose of testosterone for how long? For a woman I would say 500 micrograms, for a man I'd say one to two milligrams.
Just depends on like how strong and aggressive you want to be. And for like eight weeks. Yeah. Then come off of it. Becky says what peptide is going I think she means to work for women over 60 to take for better health. epitalon too for health.
I mean, there's just so many, but I would definitely say growth hormone releasing peptides at that age. Yeah. Microdose of a GLP. And then obviously too, people get mad at us probably because we just sound like a broken record testosterone. If you're a 60 year old woman and you are not on testosterone, please, just do it and your life will change. Do you recommend Metformin 250 milligrams two times a day or 500 milligrams a time today? If you've never used it before, I would start at 250 mg. Yeah, as they started 250mg in the evening for the first like two weeks.
See how your GI handles it, because it will clean out any of any like old candida in your gut. And then once your gi system calms down, you can go up to 250 mgs morning and evening. That's what works best for me. that's What a lot of my women do. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, just, Just play with them and see everyone's gonna be a little bit different. Work ethic is not being transferred to the younger generation.
But you know, it's interesting. I was listening to a podcast when I doing cardio this morning. And I think also too, like, we need to stop blaming technology because I that's really based on parenting. Because people are blaming technology, they're blaming social media, their blaming the devices and the tech companies. And it's like, those are really great tools, just have people like wanna now hate on AI, again, is a tool system. I think that is now based on how people aren't parenting their children.
Yeah. I mean, it's like, what does blaming anything do anyway? Again, you can sit here and rant and rave, AI this and that, screens, whatever. It's what you choose to do with your life. Yeah, You can't expect- You choose everything. You know, like you chose how much time you spend on the screen. Choose how many times you let your kids spend it on your screen, choose how engaged you are with their kids. Like we all choose to do certain things. So it's like, what the- Well, we're seeing also to the more gentle parenting style so much with like- Yeah.
With our generation of people with their kids. And not that I'm not like saying like people should, you know. Yeah, I see the pro of gentle parent but like it is also like I think also too because of the way people like generation work ethics now or now, like it's usually most people, it is very common for there to be both parents are working or the woman is working more.
And I think that like, now it just like here, take this, go sit and watch your iPad. Like, because people don't have like the patience anymore and the time span because of. Yeah. Does that make sense what I'm trying to say? No, it does. It's easier to shrug off the responsibility of engaging. Or should I know, like, my sisters are watching this, they would say they're not watching. But I don't know. People would just say, just wait until you have kids and then you can make a comment on this.
I see it. Yeah, I mean, of course I can't speak on anything at all, like having the experience to but then I also too, have plans for like when I have kids what their structure in their day and we would write it out and lots of stuff on our refrigerator. And in our laundry room of like the tours that they're going to have when they are old enough to do tours and stuff and there will be a structure or a team. You can take our dogs, for instance. Taylor would raise the dogs like a single mom would raised her kids. She never had any stern parenting with them. And then when I came to the picture, I was much more stern with him and they had gotten a lot away with stuff.
But guess what? The dogs actually like it when there's more structure and routine in their life. You might not show it all the time, but they do, especially male dogs, like they need structure and routine and they're not stuffed animals, you know, and your kids aren't your friends. They're your children. You know I was very fortunate like I had parents that treated me like a child rather than their friend, you know, and there's, I love my parents. They're very loving. I've had the genetic lottery of like the parents I got, but they also too, like, the standard is the standards, quote Mike Tomlin.
And whatever standard you set for your household, that's the Standard. It's like I see this sometimes too. OK, the kids going off to college, well, what do you mean you don't have to do laundry? Well, if you've done the child's laundry its entire life, you never taught them how to the laundry. They're not going to just like know how do it. So I mean, again, that goes back to work ethics. Like if don t teach them to how t work for things, they're no going t be able to go out into the real world as adults and be l to have a work ethic.
That's one thing that like I always say I'm so grateful that your parents and especially especially your dad like drove that work ethic into you and your brothers and just you know as a woman like dating prior to meeting you like and I said this I think I saw this at our wedding like they're they don't make men like the Williams men. Like that's not a super common thing. And it's just like, and it was because of the work ethic that your parents put into you, like in someone who has dated a lot prior,
cause we didn't meet until we were in our thirties. Those work ethics and skills are not in a a of people anymore. Yeah. I think a there's with, when it comes to work Like in my household, it was never questioned if you were going to work hard. And if it wasn't, that was immediately nipped in the bud. There was no debate. Working hard was the standard. Then after that, I was like, well, how do you work smarter now?
And so I think also to a big part of that. Hopefully, depending on how our kids come out, they will be involved in sports. They will find something to do where they have to be active. Whether that's from football to dance or piano or whatever it is, they're going to be forced to have to do something like that, even if they don't want to. I mean, in my household, I always wanted to play sports. It wasn't like my parents didn't have drag and play sport. But there has to something to teach life lessons through getting feedback.
To go back to what we were talking about. Well, it also helps with brain development. Oh, of course it does. I mean, music. A lot of people just put their children in piano lessons as young children just because it will help them. It's in studies done that it can actually help and be better mathematicians because of how it's representing the brain. Yeah. And to that point, I think it just like adults need structure, like kids need a structure too, and they'll go where you lead them,
So work ethic can be developed. But I think to the point about being wrong, it also is like, when you play sports, you have to learn that you're going to be wrong. And it's OK to wrong and that should get better from being. If you hold on to thinking that's you are not going wrong when playing sports. You gotta like, it's gonna be like a lot of, It's not gonna fun, you know, because like you have to deal with that and I think that's like one of the blessings
of playing sports is like they don't know how to do that. Dana says, I love your theory on work a little harder if you want something. I'm 63 and I still work and i still split wood, stack wood and do exactly what you've done. It feels good. Yeah, I think there's benefit to splitting wood every single day. i mean i don't do it here at the house i am but i know when we have kids i think that will be something that is beneficial. it's the old i guess old chinese proverb or whatever stack whatever excuse me chop wood carry water like you just keep doing that every day What is a good
stack for sciatic pain, nerve pain taking NSAIDs and not touching it? You could try ARA 290, one to two milligrams per day first. Yeah, that does. I'd also introduce BPC, TB 500, and probably Parallax too, I think would help. What platform? I guess we're on Twitter and Instagram. Seems like there's a lot of people on twitter watching right now. So that's pretty cool. Megan says, man, let your girlfriend speak FFS.
Sorry I didn't let Tater speak. What's up, Mike? Mike Trench in the house. Do you feel like I don't want you to speak? I mean, I think in beginning when we first started doing these, maybe because I was more shy, but now I'm more comfortable. I will come back. Well, you're my wife now, so. Oh, that's fine. Usually I'm the person that's not speaking.
So it is interesting. Cause like when you do other stuff with other people, you are definitely more of the, the quieter one. And then you, do you speak more on this, which I like that because I, I liked hearing you. You speak especially about these topics. Like, cause I just think you're the smartest person ever. I'm much more of a listener. I think obviously this is a show where we talk, so I am going to speak when we are talking. But I feel pretty good about listening to you.
No, you are a good listener Yeah, I would say you're good. Yeah. Johnny says on vacation this week, what is your routine coming off vacation to get back at it when your diet and training hasn't been as dialed in? We should make a video on that. Yeah. I mean, I don't think there's necessarily anything you have to like go crazy. It's just like getting back in the routine itself is like what helps. Maybe if you want to do like more sauna and more detox stuff, like we're in eating off plan, yeah, think could be helpful.
But yeah. Fasting is good too, whether it's fruit fasting, because typically like when we vacation, we don' fast as much. So like, I think just getting back into like a fasting, like every other day fasting. Whether it's fruit fasting or just regular fasting so. Yeah. So. Go back up. What was that in that? Well, she was just saying, She's commented earlier that she had tummy upset from fruit, fasting and she did a smoothie and added too much sugar.
Okay. Sorry. I've been considering ipamrelin, but I struggle with inflammation. Currently on NAD, TERS, BPC, TB-400, GHK, and 5-amino will at least curb water retention from ipamelin. They should. I mean, I don't think you'll get too much water retentions from... Too much inflammation from? Too water attention from epimelin and it definitely won't cause inflammation or shouldn't. Mike says the only food I eat is a hot apple pie from McDonald's.
I haven't eaten McDonalds in probably 13 or 14 years. It's the last time I could. The last I remember there, I think I was like a freshman in college and I got like breakfast in there and got so sick. And I'm just like, never eat McDonald again. Really fast food. But those apple pies are good. I'm not even gonna like, you can't hate like those Apple pies from McDonald's. From what I remember, because they are pretty good, they were on the dollar menu. I just like now just think about like the Bojangles, like, the cinnamon Bo Berry biscuits.
That's that's what I remember. Yeah, I always forget to like Bo Jangles is like a southern thing. So yeah, a lot of people don't have Bo jangles. Those Bo berry biscuits, yeah. I probably haven't had one of those like 15 or 16 years ago. Well I should try to make like homemade one with with our flour. Could you explain the difference between meta versus bioabsorb? I'm currently finishing my meta and needing to reorder. Does she mean meta shred? Yeah, she's asking- So meta-shred is BAM15 and SLU.
So those are the mitochondrial stimulating supplements. And then bio-absorbed is a really like a glucose disposal agent. It helps your body absorb, partition carbs and nutrients much more effectively. You can definitely use both together. Tom says, do you need to be careful with berberine on a sugar fast? I don't think so. I mean, I've heard people say, but like I personally haven't had any problems. So like if you're dosing normally, you know, that'd be fine. Dave says are you running a mitochondrial optimizing regimen similar to your YouTube video on combining mitochondria peptides,
SS 31, mat C, carnitine, glutathione, five amino, and do run NAD plus anywhere. Yes, right now, what I've been doing is actually, I'm just using Metashred. So that's SLU and BAM15. I been do that for like three-ish weeks now. Probably like in the next month or so go on SS31. Yeah, we'll probably go SS 31 once we get back from Italy. That's probably what i'll do. Because I have been wanting to run SS-31 Yeah, it's been a few months since we've like had some, so it'll be good.
But yeah, we periodically will just do that. So like I'll go from like MOTC to SLU and then to SS 31 and kind of like that video where I was explaining that I just kind like do three to four times per year. It seems to work good and all those other things are good to use. The carnitine, the glutathione, five amino and the NAD, you can just kinda use those as you see fit. When taking I think we already answered that. He was asking them from Twitter. So, or X.
To get more of a tanning effect from a lanotan, I guess that's... Yeah. That's probably a typo. Should I increase dosage or increase frequency or probably doing 250 micrograms as of the day? Not much effect. Yeah, it depends on your complexion, Tom, but yeah, if you want more tan effect, you need to go like 500 micro grams to one milligram. Like if I was in Mexico in the summer, I would use one milligram a day. And I've done that. It keeps me from having to use sunscreen because I hate sunscreen.
I just gives me like breakouts. Natalie says, does small dose reddit cause less hunger? I think everyone's different. Smaller dose actually causes more hunger for me. Yeah, I can see that. Yeah. So it's just, everyone's different. You know, it' s hard to say. Do you think IPA Maryland causes no water retention versus IPAA with CJC?
I don't think there's that much of a difference. I think the only time I feel like you see a different like not having CJS is that some people just get more of like the, um, histamine reactions where their, their chest gets warm and get like a nice and flush with CJC. But I don't think you see a difference of water retention. Yeah. Um, let's see, would you guys have recommendations for peptides help the recovery process of CRS? Yeah, I've got a video on my channel about a mold toxicity stack.
So I would check out that video because there's a lot of peptide on there, but basically like, yeah, that going on right now. VIP is really good. once you've cleared the mold from your system, and then LL37 is really good, Thymaline is good. SS31 is real good so. Are you still injecting your face with Snap and GHK? If so, do you see improvement? I am not. It's kind of annoying to even with a pen inject your faced, but it definitely helps, I think.
I mean, it doesn't make me any prettier, that's for sure, definitely works. So Snap8 though, you can also make that into your own serum. It's a good question. Mike says, how's your heart rate on Reddit? I do notice like it always seems to bump up because I started it this week. Always seems a bump-up like five to 10 points. when I have reddit, because like when i don't have Reddit it's usually like low 50s and then like this week i think it was like higher 50's low 60's like my resting heart rate but to me like i'm not worried about that to be like it signaling that like okay that's a good thing yeah now if i was just like
thumping out of my chest all the time yeah like but iI think also too what helps with that is like five to ten grams of taurine per day in my experience helps me and a lot of people And I just take that anyway, but like, it does seem to help with the heart rate. So it is something people experience. I know there's a lot of people that even like 250 micrograms, like it gives them like a racing heartrate, which I've never had. But I do know that I have heard a lotta people say that taurine helps them with that. Let's see.
Bottle of AOD from Feb that, I haven't finished. Do you think it's okay to finish off? I reconstituted in February. It's been in the fridge, let's that's five months. Yeah. I mean, if it's been in the fridge, it not going to be the same, but you can still use it and get effect. You might just do, have to do like a higher dosage. Yeah, like degraded a little bit. Right. Well, that's the skin. That's not very good. But I always mispronounce it. Any issues with taking Melanotam-1 for cognitive benefits?
I don't think so. Is there? No. Was your opinion on Cagra Sema? I think it's great. I thinks it better than just Sima Glutide alone. In the studies it shows that. But I would say Caghra Reda would be better. Now it says my thymus in Alpha 1 seems to not be fully dissolved. Should I throw away the bottle? Could have been bad backwater. There are little tiny particles still floating around.
Yeah, I mean, that's weird. I don't know. If you didn't put enough water in it, sometimes if you have less water, it just doesn't dissolve as much. Also too, if ever get like crystals or things like that in your peptide bio or gels, you can add like 0.1 to 0,2 milliliters of acetic acid solution. Anyone that uses peptides is good. moment, teaching moment. Anyone that uses peptides should always have acetic acid solution. Like I've got in my pantry, I have a bottle of acetyl acid solutions and you don't need that much of it.
Anytime you get like gelling or crystals or anything like that. put a little bit of acetic acid solution, again, like 10 or 20 units, 0.1 to 0,2 mLs, and it will typically break those up if you gel or whatever. So sometimes it happens. Sometimes testosterone gels, sometimes AOD gels. NAD crystals. It's good to have those because that will, typically, nip that in the bud. Now it says, what's the dose of thymusinophil-1 you would use if were getting a cold, two milligrams a.m. and p. m.? Yeah, that's That might be a little bit much.
You could do like a one milligram AM and PM and should be good. Yeah. Like the last time, like I felt like, I was getting sick. I, was taking like one milligrams three times a day with the bio strips. So that was actually, no, that wasn't because those were 500 micrograms. And I've taken three day and probably some days I took four and we're there. That's also cause I wasn' a cigarette filled casino hotel. Rich says, will you offer a cerebral lysine or an equivalent on bio-longevity labs? It's a good question right now.
Cerebral lysin, if you put your neck out there, they're chopping heads off if we sell it. So maybe, maybe not. I would like to though, but it's, a lot of the people that were selling it got letters to stop. Johnny says is derma fillers the only solution to smile lines or what products do you combine to help? For the deeper ones, I mean, that's going to be your, Yes, your best option to really see them all go away. You can, if you don't want to go down that route, you can do snap eight serum and apply that onto those smile line areas.
And you could even do like any kind of like eye cream for wrinkles. So you couldn't even apply back onto your smile on areas, but to, really, unfortunately to you really soften those and get those away, You do have to do filler in those areas Curling on, I think we answered that about adding CAG there. How long should this take to start seeing results from two capsules twice a day of Metashred?
I don't know, James. Everyone's different. I use four capsuls per day when I'm doing it. But it just like, I can't answer that because I don't know if you're underweight, overweight, if your exercising, you are not exercising what your diet looks like. So I cant say that's kind of like maybe the same thing. If you ask someone like when can I start to see results from drinking weight protein? I dont know man. I mean, people ask that all the time with like different stuff too. And it's like we're not going to lose weight from taking the true time. Yeah, and I, don' know, like I I'll follow you around all day.
Nor would you probably want me to. Catherine says, I agree 100% women crave for a man to lead. Yep. And you do. They don't even realize it sometimes. Yeah. Everyone's saying like they thought eggs make them bloated too. It's true. I mean, they're eggs are good, like good food. But Sarah, we started these at 10 a.m. Eastern time. What's up, Antonio? He says big fan of the pot a lot. That's awesome.
Let's see, sorry. Lost my place. Just started peptides this week. My first file with CJC didn't reconstitute. I called Peptide Sciences and they replaced it. They also told me the backwater I got on Amazon was a fraud product. Very good point. The things on the Amazon, the Backwater on amazon, I've heard this from people, from chemists. Yeah. And I talked to chemist that manufacture peptide here in the United States. He said, please tell people do not use the water from Amazon because a lot of times it's not good back water. It messes the peptid up and then people get bad reactions or it doesn't mix well or something like that.
Yep. Any tips for a newbie? No, just like start building your own sample size. You know what I'm saying? Like just start with building own like use case for peptides because like how I respond to a peptide is not going to be a tailored response. It's how you respond. So like, like I said, we can give you guidelines for what the best practices are, but like everyone's going be different. And that's what, I think what's really cool is like what love to see is people that like starting peptides for the first time, especially like these are like in our private groups that we see this. And then it's like, they get so good at themselves.
They can start like saying, well, this works, and then they like start helping other people with it because they build like their own knowledge that is completely different from what we talk about. I think like the hands-on aspect is the best way of learning. Yeah. It's the age-old question, can you mix some peptides so you're not pitting so many times on the dumpster fire protocol you shared? On that, not necessarily. A lot of those you have to keep separate. So again, the best rule of thumb is like if it's a different pathway, you probably shouldn't be mixing them together.
But I know, hey, I a bunch of people, they shotgun all their peptide into one. If you ever put a punch of peptidines in one vial and then it cloudies up, your probably messing them up. Yep. My wife had Bell's Palsy a few years ago. She had a little improvement, but never recovered fully from it. Is there a peptide that can help the nerves recover? I mean, you could try AR290. I would also try Vessagen, now that I think about it, that would probably help a lot with the blood flow to that area. BPCTB0100 definitely wouldn't hurt.
CHK probably would help, too, with just the stem cell and inflammation there. Robert says, I take so much peptides in the morning. Is there any benefit taking dedicated at night? It depends on what you take. You definitely don't want it ruining your sleep. Max, we talked about that earlier. If you missed it, about SS31 for kidneys.
Can you dose GHRPs at higher doses to facilitate less shots? Not really because they have short half-lifes. So like, it doesn't really matter because you're gonna get like a pulse of tall, bulbous dose anyway. Now there's CJC with DAC, but I'm not a big fan of that because that's what that was like made to do. And then people get bloated and they don't like it. Thank you, Becky, for the nice words. Chaz says, do you have a philosophy of optimizing health with the impaired methylation from the MTFHR gene mutation?
I don't really care about gene mutations at all. And that's not going to be the proper biohacking thing to say. But I really don t care. It's about what you signal to the body and the bodies gonna express. So I think it's probably something like half the population has the MTFHR gene. It makes Gary Brekka a lot of money, but it doesn't necessarily change anything for like how you live your life.
Is that good information to have? Yeah. But like, is it gonna change any thing? No, like there's no peptide you shouldn't take because you have MFTHR. Yeah And it's like also doing something to your mindset and that's going to also create an issue too. Yeah, like I think it is good input to have and if you like get like insights like, okay, I'm better with this than this. I like think that is worthwhile to some extent, but our mind is so powerful, you know. And if we like use our minds to like to think about higher order things, it would be good.
What are our news for SLU PP332? I don't know. I dunno what that means. Yeah, Viking says, correct about parenting and technology for sure. Willie says my mom is 64 years old and has heart damage from chemo as well as chronic inflammation. And I'm trying to get her on a hyperbaric oxygen red light. Any pet pass suggestions for her? SS31 and Cardiogen would be two really good ones. Two milligrams of both of those a day I think would a good start, Willie.
Let's see. What about a 53-year-old woman who gained weight on TURS two and a half milligrams a week, said she was hungrier or rather be better or make her hunger a sterile while adding testofensine and her sloop help. Definitely test ofensin and sroop won't hurt. Yeah. But I mean, if she's really fat and that might not be a high enough dose and if he's eating more, I think that would be weird. Or maybe add some fingerlentide in there. Yeah. I mean, yes, you still can gain weight on a GLP one, believe it or not.
If you don't change your habits, if you resistance train, and if don' exercise and do cardio. So you. Don't. Change your diet. Definitely. That's awesome. Thank you, that's a nice. Cosmos and chaos, gentle parenting is not the same thing as permissive parenting. Permissiv would be tech without limits. That's correct. It's good. I like that. Yes. You can be gentle, but also firm at the time.
Taylor, how can I find information to join your women's group? In all of the descriptions of my YouTube video, there is a link. If you go to my Instagram, there and click on the link tree, there is a link on there. And then there's a Link at the bottom of all of my emails on how you can join the Feminine Flow Collective. What should I do before starting Fox04? Nothing. You can just use it. Again, I'd say this, you're not really going to feel anything from Fox 04. No, it's like doing work underneath a hood.
Yeah, It's kind of like a senescent cell killer. So yeah. I mean, if someone's really bad off, Well, they noticed something maybe, maybe. But it's just more of those, one of the longevity ones that you're probably not going to feel anything. Male six foot, 25% body fat and still gaining back loss weight. Even eating 1700 calories plan is ready with SS 31 MOTS and SLU. I do roids, but I'm lucky to have 1250 natty tests. So I don't want to metal thoughts.
Okay. That's good. If you. still gaining back lost weight even eating. Yeah. I mean, so I guess he's saying that he is not eating a lot of calories. Yeah, I think this would be a good case for someone that's like food fast, because I don't know the nature of those calories. If you're like starving, if you feel like you are starving yourself and you still gaining weight. And then I thing total test doesn't matter as much as free testosterone does.
So he's just probably hungry. But what? I mean, he was outside for two hours. Sorry, dog is like one of our dogs. I guess. Yes. You can let him out if want. Go outside. Yeah, just let him out. Jason says, do you still think Reda three times a week with Kagri also three time a we using microdosing as good strategy? I do. I mean, I'm not even using Kagre right now because I get enough appetite suppression from the Redo, but it definitely is.
So just Kagra is like one of those wild card ones where it's kind of weird. Like some people don't like it. Some people love it, and I think it is great. Taylor hates it so. It's up to you. Your videos are very informative, but you can always, you always forget to mention the shelf life of the peptide is our reason. I mean, all peptides relatively have like the same shelf-life. So that's kind of like saying, like talking about food, that you get to mentioned the expiration date, they're all kind the the,
same, so. Did she use the grill brush on the girl? Yeah, was he eating it? The grill brushes in New York. Oh, he probably Yeah, sorry, guys. We have a grill brush next to our grill that store away like a little cabinet and our dog snatched it out and was trying to eat it. Sitting in the yard know how they don't cut their tongue when they do that. It's just sitting in yards. Maybe they probably pulled it up. Yeah. Anytime they can get some little like speck of grease or something.
Oh, sorry. Okay. Injectable five amino protocol. I see the vials range from five milligrams to 15 milligrams. Like I like a one milligram, but you can start off with 500 micrograms. And then typically that's like what I started with it within like two weeks. Bumped it up to one milligrams because I just didn't know what you're like. Yeah, I've done two milligrams, and I don't notice that much more benefit from two more grams. Maybe there is if you do it longer, But like I'd done 2 milligrams and 1 milligrams still feels good. So, Can you combine keto diet with SLU?
You could. I don't like it. Yeah. Who's Taylor? I'm Taylor, Hunter's wife. Taylor's my wife? Who is Taylor. If I am having trouble converting testosterone cream to the injectable work better, yes, inject will always work. Yes. Alternating by the mind with the daffodil every other day feel it wearing off midday. What supplements can help extend amplify effects often GPC taurine?
Yeah, I mean or you could just take it like split it up and take It in the half day if you're like burning through it half-day alpha Gpcs good taureans good. So like are you sleeping? I feel like I would not be sleeping if I was taking Taking that combo, but it's different Is it okay to do peptides all year? Is okay the balance between GHRH to GHRP to HGH? Yeah. Yeah, talk about that all the time. I actually released a video on my YouTube channel about it recently, like doing that throughout the year.
That's kind of my plan around it. So that'd be a good one to check out for that. Wow. There's like on X, there's 1700 people watching right now. Like that's interesting because I never get hardly any people on x. i'll be completely honest. like I don't really go on that much. I, I don't have social media on my phone. So like the only time I interact with social medias, like if I'm sitting down and like working with it, cause I just wouldn't be able to get anything done. Yeah.
But that's awesome. Minimum amount of time to spend outside for tanning on MT2. Is it true? It doesn't cause tan lines. I accidentally got burned probably 30 minutes per day. It would be really good for most people. Depends on their complexion. And I have, and I mean, a little bit of tan line. Yeah. Optic nerve repair stack from a stroke. I would start with SS 31 first.
You probably do the eye drops too. PPCTB 500 eye-drops and then inject SS31, not into your eye. Not into you eye, no. And even vestibule. Would you take minishred and or ShredX around your bleed if you are still exercising? Female question. I mean, yeah, it doesn't. I don't think it has like a hormonal. It's not gonna make a difference. Um, I would say if you're somebody who, while you are actually on your cycle, if, like for me, when I'm on my cycle my nervous system,
might get calmer. Leading up to my cycles is when hit more of that irritable and PMS phase. So at that point, then yes, that could be too much on the body. If you feel that way during your cycle when you're bleeding, I would say back off one or the other. I'd say just use ShredX if you are needing more so like the energy boost during cardio and then use shred on your opposite days.
What's the best peptide for cognition and to lift brain fog? I mean, there's a lot, see, C max is good. Biomind is really good has J 147. I think that does well for people's brain. Yeah, I feel like that is the bass for brain bog for me more so than like C Max. What is your opinion on methylene blue trophies? That's awesome for sale with nicotine. And I, think it's good, yeah. Haven't tried the ones with the nicotin in it. Is it as powerful as some of the other stuff we talk about? No, but I think it's good.
I thing methylene blue is much more palatable for a normie audience, I guess. That's kind of like their gateway into some the stuff. More likely to get someone to take methylen blue than inject something. Lisa says, I did TURS only initially was starting right up for the first time this week. Can you explain benefits and doses of Cagri? I routinely lift and eat better. I've already lost 67 pounds. That's amazing. Over two and a half years. Good job.
Caggeri for me is really just kind of a lever to pull up or down your appetite. You know what I'm saying? Like it just is kind like, okay. Yeah. Just cause I didn't like the way I reacted to it. Cause I felt like my serotonin levels dipped and it made me feel a little down. but I've had other women use it that don't feel that way. I had some news that they do feel it. Um, for me, CAG really does cancel out any kind of food, noise, food cravings. Just cause like, I mean, this is where Hunter and I are different.
Like I definitely like crave food. And I have the more sensation to food I think about food more than he does. Whereas in like he enjoys food and he loves to eat, but like you just look at food as just like fuel for the body. Whereas in like, I have definitely more of a cessation and the more emotional, um, attachment to food. Yeah. So like for that case, like CAC does like work really well to cut that good noise and that food fantasy out.
But then there's also that like that pleasure feeling also goes away. So, but it is beneficial if you're somebody like me that relates more to that and CAG is going to be beneficial for you. Yeah. I think emotionally for me, food is more How would I say it? Like I associate it with like fun things like watching football. Like, I love like, like picking out and watching the football, which picking up for me anymore is not like you know, with GLP is it's like nowhere close to like when I was younger.
Yeah, but I do or like having like a really, really tough workout and then just like going out to eat or something like that's super fun for you. But aside from that, Those are like the times that I would be like emotionally like invested in food. Aside from that. I'm always just like, I don't care what we eat. Like I just more of just using it to like get by, but I get it. You know, food was big in my family too. So protocol to help reverse hyperinsulinemia or hypoglycemia. To be honest. Yeah.
What would be a good bioregular stack to strongly signal parasympathetic pathways for sleep? I would say probably endolutin, serolutine, if you're using Orals, and then probably like Cortogen and Penelon and epitalon if I was doing injectable. So how long to wait after hernia surgery to take Glow? You can take it right away.
Thanks. Well, he says, I donate, but let me know how you support you guys. Just buy products and buy longevity labs. You just can tailor w hundred w. That's all we need, man. Don't use his code. Use my code honeycomb. What's up, Rachel? She says, if you have MTFHR gene, you need HIDAS to be 12 and full eight period. Yeah, go talk to Honeycomb. If you had that gene go to honeycomb because they, she will definitely take care of you.
Shelf life of reconstituted MOTC. Thanks for all the help by the way. I just started peptide two months ago. That's awesome. Motsy is like any other peptides. So there's not, it doesn't degrade in like 10 minutes and it's worthless after 10. It is completely fine. three, who came up with that comment? I don't know. I think somebody said on podcasts, which is actually a clinical study to evaluate it. And even when left at like hot temperature after 30 days, it was still 99% stable.
Sorry. Do you need to go? No, he was sniffing where that girl brush was. Our dogs are being very naughty this morning or this afternoon. Is there a limit to how many peptides you can be at one time? No. But I mean, I usually say like five to seven. If you're taking more than five, seven peptide, it's not that they can't work. It's just that. What is your purpose here? Because you could be doubling up on something that you don't need to be doubled up. Yeah.
Donnie says, so cool. All your fans' questions. I think there are more of, they're not necessarily, I mean I know they would say they were fans, but like these are just, it's like a community. We're just helping people in the community, you know what I'm mean? Like, we're like just people. Like I don't know, people say like, oh, influence or whatever, like I am just a person, yeah. Thank you, Trina? Trinna? Did I pronounce that wrong? Thank you. Catherine says, I feel amazing after starting NP thyroid energy-wise, and I'm finally seeing weight loss results.
I am only on some of the blue tide right now, but should be taking anything else to help recovery balance. No, testosterone, desiccated thyroid, a lot of times too, yeah, progesterone. Also too I think one thing too just, you know, like how much you do put in the comments, Catherine, um, just from what you've put it, Like I would also look into maybe low dose nitrexone, Yeah, that can help too. I didn't think about that with like the immune thing. Especially with the immunity thing and with reactions with peptides, I would definitely suggest for you to look into low-dose nitroxone.
Yeah. Nina says, Charlie and I are dealing with late afternoon low energy. We were talking about this earlier, 5-amino and or NAD. So you can use NADA, you use 5 amino, and you could use them both together. If I could only use one, then I'd probably use five. It's going to get a little bit more energy from that. Injectable 5 amino. Does MOTC and red erase heart rate? Yes, and a lot of people, they will. Yeah. Taylor's code is TaylorW. Is it ideal to run SS31 alongside MotsC long-term, or would cycling be more worthwhile just repairing mitochondria every few months?
You could do both. You can do it both, I think it'd be better to cycle. Any peptides or bioregulars can help with anemia. What's that one? I Bono Marlowe, there's clinical efficacy to show that Bonomar Lowe helps with anemia. You want to check that out, especially in women. Cerebral license, have to find any alternatives for brain repair and cognitive health that are on this level, cerebroneurigen from Limitless.
I have no idea. Don't even know what that is from limitless, but Let's see. I'm just going through. And I think that's it. Yeah, well, I got it, there's one. Oh, OK. Well, this, try to see if there is a question. March, GFR 75, stat and C, so I did two courses about regulatory tiddies, my stat C point through them. Wow, that is crazy.
Did two courses of bioregulators for the kidneys. Kidney of like a 20 year old. That's crazy. 53. Wow. More proof that bi-regulators work. Michelle says, what can help with on 42 and starting IVF in September? I mean, if you're doing IVS, I think one of the biggest things is just like clearing inflammation from the body. So like injectable glutathione, and I'll carnitine helps so much with fertility.
They help anyway, but they help a lot of people with fertility just because of what they're doing for the body. So I would say those. I don't know. What do you think? Anything else? I'd also say metformin, even GLP. But most IVF planets aren't going to go for that. Yeah. IBF is a little bit different too than just like regular contraception, you know, regular conception.
So let's see. Will I update the peptide cheat sheet? I should just update it like every month because people are like, why is the Peptide Cheat Sheet not updated? Yeah. tear tendon, which peptide they have to be injected in fasting mode. What?
BPC, TB 500, GHK, PEG, MGF, carnal acts. Yeah. I love bioregulators, improve my kidney function 10 times. That's awesome. Thank you. Robert says, just got blood work back and thyroid markers were low, even on desiccated thyroid, trying to tweak desicated at six or 90 or more. How do you gauge well how your desicate thyroid is doing? I just gauge on how I feel. So for me, I use 90 milligrams, Taylor uses 60 milligrams. If I go to 120, it's a little too strong.
90 is good for my. Also using iodine also will help with thyroid function too. Selenium helps too, yeah. Taylor, how do know how much testosterone to take? So obviously blood work getting done and then going by how I feel helps a lot. So for me, I like taking 12 milligrams a week is a good way. I didn't feel like it did much, but then like 20 was too much.
Yeah, it depends on age to premenopause, you probably need a little bit less. Yeah. Paraminopausal probably a bit more, post-menoppaus. Post- menoposal women, so women basically anywhere between five to 20 milligrams a week, I would say like pre-mentopasal woman, You're going to be like closer to like, five, to 15. And then menoppause and then post menompause you're gonna be more closer, like 15 to twenty.
Unfortunately, I bought the B12 that starts with a C which would be called cyanocobalamin. Suggestion frequently the same as the one that started with M which is methylcobalin. Is it intramuscular only or sub-okay? I usually do intromuscular. I mean, it's probably okay. Methylcobilamin would better. So, starting dose for females for l-carnitine, about 200 milligrams. I like taking 500 milligrams to a gram. I think females do good at 200 milligrams and go up more. There's really no limit with the carnitine.
It's just how much you can inject without feeling so sore. You can't do anything. Mod C, fat loss and cognitive improvements. What is the protocol? One milligram a day. Glutathione injected cause a huge red mark for the last couple of days. Any suggestions? One, I leave my glutathionine at room temperature for like an hour or two before I inject it. That helps a lot. Also, if you use the backwater with taurine in it, so you get taurean back water, glutothione back-water, that helps lot and also too,
typically will like massage the area with like a massage gun or something right after I injected to help it and like help spread it out. So peptides for brain cancer. I mean, not necessarily for a brain that I can think of. So that's a tough one. And I think that it. We're two hours, 15 minutes. Thank you guys. It looks like there's people on YouTube, a lot of people in X. This is a really good one, appreciate you, guys, much love.
Over the next few days at BioLongevity Labs, we're just doing like sales of like two to three products a day. for the 10 days of Christmas. So be on the lookout for those and stay tuned. A lot of cool things coming later this year. Yeah. Be on a lookout. But thank you guys. We love you. Thank you so much. This is awesome show. Great questions today. And I think we should be able to be back next Saturday. Cool. All right, everyone. Love you, peace. Bye.
