update on the earlier thing secretagogues made me ravenous, which is a fairly direct signal that something was happening

- ferritin_fay — how do you separate healing from time when the injury was going to heal anyway 18:59
- alcohol_hits — quick one anyone tried one variable at a time here or is everyone stacking 19:08
- sasha_stacks — ran TB-500 alone for 12 weeks specifically so i could attribute anything that happened 20:37
- step_one_sian — coming back to this my shoulder got better on BPC and it also got better across six weeks of rest i took at the same time 20:38
- fasting_insulin — are secretagogues worth it if you sleep badly anyway 21:16
rodent data only
i was confident BPC did something for my elbow and a year later im not, injuries resolve
ran it alone
purity varies more on these than on the GLP-1s in my experience, 99.2 on one lot and 99.4 on another
update on the earlier thing changed my mind on stacking, i used to defend it and now i think it just makes a log unreadable
injuries heal anyway
verification channel has some
tesamorelin was the only one where i could point at a measured change rather than a feeling
baseline month helped
did nothing for me
stacked, learned nothing
evidence is thin
if youre going to run something, run it long enough and alone, otherwise dont bother logging it
placebo maybe
how do you separate healing from time when the injury was going to heal anyway
i log these exactly like doses, date, amount, site, what i noticed, and its still hard to read back
quick one anyone tried one variable at a time here or is everyone stacking
right so came back after 10 months off and my baseline was where it was before, so nothing persisted
is the tendon stuff anecdote or is there something behind it
sceptical but curious
one thing at a time
right so ran GHK-Cu for 13 weeks and stopped because i couldnt tell, which is a result of a kind, ill dig out the number
cant tell honestly
no human data
the secretagogue effect faded for me after about 22 months and never came back
nobody here can tell you whether BPC will help your injury and anyone who does is guessing
the scepticism here is because the evidence is thin, not because people are being difficult
*Medutest not the other one
anyone run TB-500 on its own rather than stacked with something
*Medutest not the other one
while im here the tendon claims trace back to a small number of animal studies that get cited well past what they support
the honest split is that some of these have licensed uses and some have a reputation and nothing else
took a full month off everything to get a baseline and it was the most useful month of my log
Medutest came back 98.6 on a QST lot, which tells you whats in the vial and nothing about whether it works
*Medutest not the other one
TB-500 did nothing for me over 31 weeks and i stand by that a year later
nobody here can tell you whether BPC will help your injury and anyone who does is guessing
ran TB-500 alone for 12 weeks specifically so i could attribute anything that happened
coming back to this my shoulder got better on BPC and it also got better across six weeks of rest i took at the same time
i think most of what gets reported here is regression to the mean, my own reports included, i have it written down somewhere
i stacked three things for 11 months and the honest conclusion is that i learned nothing
reconstituted 30 in 2ml and it stayed clear for the whole vial, which is the low bar we work with
people get pointed at verification because purity is the only measurable part of any of this
are secretagogues worth it if you sleep badly anyway
ran one thing at a time for 4 years and ended up with three conclusions, two of them boring
get it tested
does the verification channel cover these or only the GLP-1s
the verification channel takes these, its just that far fewer people submit them
one variable at a time or you learn nothing, which is unpopular in a channel full of stacks
[edited]evidence is thin
right so does anyone have a PeptideMeter result for a FGP BPC lot
GHK-Cu did something to my skin texture and i cannot rule out that it was the moisturiser
Medutest came back 99 on a BCH lot, which tells you whats in the vial and nothing about whether it works
is BPC-157 oral or does it need injecting to do anything
oral BPC is a different question from injected and the two get discussed as if theyre the same
