HGH
Curious on Anthony’s or anyone elses thoughts on this. I get an allergic reaction to all GHRH’s …all 3. Not the GHRPs. It’s a red knot, itchy and annoying. Didn’t happen for initially but over time my body has decided the GHRH is some sort of “threat” I suppose. Got worse every time. I don't know if it is a sign of possible anaphylactic shock in my future or not...but not wanting that. Anyway, it was either just stick with the GHRP’s or switch it up to HGH. My plan was to try the HGH at around 1.5 IU for a month or so. I did get IFG level tested and it was around 273. Maybe a good goal is 400 or so, but I’ll take anyones input on that. I know what Anthony says about HGH and the fact that I will be in more mtor, the insulin sensitivity issue, glucose level…so I need to monitor with labs. But…timing was what I am looking for. Night fasted or morning. I can see advantage both ways. If I did it morning fasted, maybe I would get that “free” pulse at night? Maybe I could even add IPA at night to amp that? These are just ideas, but possibly not good ones.

I think I can rule out the source or bac water and contamination. CJC came from compounding pharm, then my doc switched to another and both were causing slight reaction at that point, same thing with the RUO one. Tesa came from both places, same thing. Sermorelin was only from the grey side, but still…I’d say it’s what they all have in common. I was going to ask my doc about that tomorrow (the epipen) and see if he can get a script for some of them, or at least one. Thanks for the info. I will look into that CGM, and I think my oura ring actually offers that additional device. Main with the GH in my case is body comp and recovery. Losing fat and gaining muscle, just like everyone else I guess. Although I understand there would not be much muscle gaining at 1.5iu.

Great insight and useful info. Yes, for sure it’s the T cell type reaction…totally matches up to 2 days later in my case….every time w/o fail. The epipen was not an issue…I have script for that now. I figured out the oura and glucose thing…it’s a separate device that just happens to link up with the oura app. Made by Stelo. Not great reviews so I am going to look into it more. Thanks for the insight on what HGH will do and what to expect. You knew I was thinking about that…you were right.
Is L-Carnitine overhyped?
L-carnitine is something I have used and been looking into deeper. It certainly is pushed and sold as something great. Is there direct evidence or mostly mechanistically inferred? For this conversation, let’s assume it’s injectable not oral, something like 5-600mg. As I look into how it works, it really seems like carnitine is more of a recycle system. I won’t go all into it here but generally if I am eating right, I should have all I need. I wonder if Anthony would consider it more the way he talks about NAD+ (in relationship to taking it or not taking it). It might help, it might do nothing, it might hurt. I’m curious what @Anthony Castore has to say, but certainly anyone else as well.

Thanks, that is an answer and then some. I know I'm getting better at this stuff when I can follow your answers and logic to some extent! I appreciate you taking the time to respond and have been reading over this for the last day to digest it.

It was just us in there I guess. I did like the time of sunday at noon, as that worked good for me.
Adamax
Has anyone taken this? Have any info? I want to start it from what I have researched, but definitely pretty limited info. Thanks!

I don't know. I tried at 300mcg the adamax(1032 version). I didn't notice too much really.

@Anaa Jones are you a real person or a bot?
vendor ?
Just wanted to get feedback on a vendor. Research 1 peptides. Anyone order from them and have any feedback? The prices are just so much less than others. Like 50% less

Looks like they have good testing and the pricing seems good but not crazy cheap. Good inventory. I never ordered from them.
