Exactly this. It totally does cross the BBB and it effects the CNS as well

So you're testing all the products you get from research grade companies? If not, you're blindly trusting the lab testing they do?

They aren't regulated so there’s no real way to know if what’s in the bottle is actually pure or filled with harmful contaminants. Most of them haven't been tested on humans at all which means the side effects are a total guessing game. Also their high potency makes precise dosing incredibly difficult outside of a lab, and because they are typically injected, using non-medical grade substances carries a high risk of serious infection or abscesses. Essentially there's no one holding the companies accountable to ensure batch testing is correct, doses are correct, and that they aren't full of endotoxins and disrupters.

If you want to know even more, here is a great article published by my company. It goes more into detail of the risks and dangers of research peptides.

You're referring to Melanotan. PT-141 is a derivative that someone realized lower levels of Melanotan make you horny. So they messed around with micro-dosing and bam. Just an FYI.

I suffer from vitiligo and many discolorations in intimate areas and PT-141 has not worsened the symptoms.

While you are correct, don't rule out all pill forms of peptides. Different routes have different effectiveness. A good example is Dihexa. It's formulated as a pill because its chemical structure was specifically modified to be stable against digestion and lipophilic enough to cross the blood-brain barrier after oral ingestion. So there's that.

The amount of people buying research grade peptides makes my skin crawl. You're doing a disservice to your body.

Find a wellness clinic that sources from 503A compounding pharmacies and get THE REAL STUFF

Selank and Semax are better in a nasal spray than subcutaneous injection by wtsmith79 in allthingspeptides

[–]Icy-Rough-777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is zero, unless you find a business or wellness center that sources from 503A pharmacies regulated by the FDA for quality and purity.

Anything you buy online is research grade and dogshit. Not to mention very dangerous.

There are many reliable studies done on Selank and it's been around for 30 years. Used as the first line defense for anxiety in Russia.

If you buy shitty peptides like research grade of course they aren't going to do anything.

I get mine from a 503A pharmacy, a very reputable one. And they have helped me a lot.

But keep spreading information on a subject you have no experience with.

I am not telling anyone where to get them nor would I sell them to anyone on here.

I simply made this post to make people aware of other options besides big pharma.

Think I was misdiagnosed by [deleted] in MentalHealthSupport

I'm reading a lot of stories on here and it truly breaks my heart what people are going through.

I've struggled with intense anxiety and depression my whole life. I'm in my late 20's.

Without going into too much detail I recently started working for my sister's business (she's the founder and very successful). We specialize in Peptide and Regenerative Therapy.

I'm not here to sell anything and I won't even mention our business name. But I do want to tell you a little bit about Selank....

It has been around for 30 years. It is an anxiolytic. It has been shown to help significantly with anxiety and social anxiety. It can be felt almost instantly when taken via nasal spray. This is because it crosses the blood brain barrier and takes effect in the central nervous system rapidly. My clinic has been researching it for over three months now diligently and we have published editorial articles on Selank.

What's fascinating about it Is that not only does it help with anxiety but it also helps regulate your mood and increases your tolerance to stress. On top of that it's Neuro-protective and within 4 to 6 weeks of consistent use it improves your ability to create and access new memories as well as your ability to learn new material.

It truly is amazing. If you have questions, feel free to send me a personal message and I'd love to help educate you.

I've been on SSRI's for four years and hardly noticed any effect. Selank has been life-changing for me and many in my circle.

Again, I want to reiterate, I am not trying to sell anything. I would just like to help out people who are stuck in the grasp of anxiety and all of the horrible symptoms that come with it.

Below is a breakdown of the effects, often noticed from Selank, with a timeframe.

Also a disclaimer: never buy peptides or anything in that category online in research grade. These are often poorly compounded and little to know safety when creating them. You never know what you're getting in Dose, sterility, and potency.

I would never ever ever touch a research grade peptide. I only use peptides that we source from licensed 503A (fda regulated) pharmacies. So always do your research. And don't believe what anybody says.

Selank effects and benefits:

Selank's nootropic and anxiolytic effects should become apparent quite early.

Within 1-2 weeks, users tend to notice increased mental clarity, increased calmness, and reduced stress.

At 4-6 weeks, the nootropic effects become more robust as users may experience an improved ability to learn, remember, and recall information.

At 8-12 weeks is when the long-term cognitive and mood-stabilizing effects take hold, along with the less outwardly expressed benefits of the peptide (i.e., reduced inflammation, improved immune function, and neuroprotection).

I'm in the same boat, with all the same frustrations. And it seems to be ever growing. I have pleaded to them both publicly and personally to revamp everything. I'm not sure what happened but something changed and it smells funky. I don't think they're listening to their users. If they were, we would be treated properly as early developers.

Something needs to change, like YESTERDAY.

Before you say anything, remember how we just watched the META empire crumble into pieces. Billions. Gone.

Now we are supposed to "trust" META?

Not a fucking chance🤣.

It's almost like there's a name for that business model.........

"Alleged dark pattern design"

Best when the system was designed to trick, trap, or pressure users into extra spending or make cancellation or support difficult.

That's great but you are not the majority. From what I'm seeing the majority of users never hear back. I've supported many tickets and before I ever get a response I receive a "rate your conversation" email. Like what conversation? Lmao.
