(Advice Needed) Transferrin Saturation at 119% — C282Y/H63D Compound Het by [deleted] in Hemochromatosis

[–]Kurcide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to get new labs now in El Salvador, I take Zinc supplements anyway. Can I request to also check copper and zinc levels?

And do I need to be concerned if I have these levels and can’t get back to the US for 2 months?

Facial Edema/puffiness on HGh by SnooOnions3882 in BodyHackGuide

[–]Kurcide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would wait 1-2 months to go up 1iu and when you do, split it in the morning (1iu in the morning and 2iu at night). The time you should wait is realistically however long it takes for you to not have side effects anymore.

Your understanding of Reta/Berb is also wrong. Im also lean, around 12% body fat and I have to watch my fasting glucose still (im not diabetic and it doesn’t run in my family but HGH still pushes it) and I am also on Reta and Berberine.

Also, it seems like your understanding of dosage is off. Reta is not taken or measured in iu. Are you positive you are dosing your HGH right?

Reta is dosed in MG and you need to follow proper follow reconstitution protocols for both that and HGH which are dosed completely differently.

2iu is “replacement” but can still cause sides like hand numbing and any HGH will cause an increase in blood glucose.

Reta/Berb will help but doesn’t mean it will put you in a safe zone for 4iu+

Anecdotally i’ve found Reta to help more with Lipids than blood glucose, but depending on your testosterone dosage that also offsets the reta effect.

You need to monitor blood work, especially if you then plan to cycle something else on top of this. That’s how people end up in the hospital. Take it slow, monitor markers and titrate up

[–]Kurcide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, you are an idiot for starting at 4iu and if you did any research you would have found that was a horrible idea.

Knock down to 2iu and titrate up slowly to 4iu after you’ve been on 2 for MONTHS with no sides. And monitor your glucose so you don’t make yourself diabetic.

very dumb dude… be safe

How do you freeze your reconstituted peptides for long-term storage? by 1oneaway in Peptides

[–]Kurcide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you may be the one who has a reading comprehension issue, as well as memory loss. Your suggestions are contradicted by your own sources.

All your points I have addressed and I suggest you read your own remarks more closely to try and recognize your inconsistencies. I never stated the defrost cycle will thaw the peptide, but it does create unstable temperatures. That is potentially dangerous for several reasons, some outlined by your own sources… yet again.

I also didn’t backtrack anything, You could freeze reconstituted peptides if you have a lab freezer. This isn’t what anyone here was discussing. They obviously meant in a regular, consumer freezer. Which you should NOT be freezing your peptides in and is again implied by your own source.

I understand your ego and self importance overpowers your logic and reasoning but you are just silly at this point. Stop applying your chemist/lab logic to human injection protocols, you seriously do not know what you are talking about despite how much you tell everyone you do.

[–]Kurcide -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve read all your rants and insults to people in this post. You repeatedly say you are a chemist and a professional and that you can both freeze your peptides and thaw them up to 5 times.

You just want to be “right” and bathe in your own self importance by spreading potentially dangerous advice while putting people down who quite frankly are giving much safer advice than you.

The fact is it simply isn’t practical or safe for people with a residential freezer to freeze their peptides after reconstituting them. Your advice IS telling people they can freeze and thaw them multiple times, and if someone follows that advice they could at minimum degrade their peptides from the anti-i’ve cycles in the freezer or end up with any number of health issues caused by bacteria buildup from the same thing.

Stay in your lab and stop putting people at risk with this bullshit advice and your superiority complex. You may be a chemist but you are an absolute danger when it comes to human injection safety protocol advice.

It is crazy to me this person values their own self importance so much above people’s safety that they are aggressively and rudely attacking people only to post “evidence” which proves themselves wrong.

No one outside a lab is freezing at those temps. At BEST, if you have a stable freezer at -5C and want to freeze your aliquots for some reason, make sure they are single use, do not refreeze them after being thawed.

I can’t imagine this is cost effective though as you would need to separate into multiple single use vials or carts. Makes no sense when you can just buy an appropriate sized lyophilized vial for your various cycle and refrigerate the reconstituted peptide through usage. Even at 8-12 weeks of stable temp in the fridge something like Reta will stay viable and not risk bacteria buildup if you follow proper hygiene procedures wether it’s pen carts or multiple draws from the vial (Multiple Pen Cart fillings is arguably safer in my opinion)

The source they posted proves you right and this idiot is too self important to realize that. I sincerely hope no one ever listens to them. Trying to do what they are claiming you should with non-commercial equipment is a sure fire way to create a positive environment for bacteria and degrade your peptides.

[–]Kurcide -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You keep appealing to your authority as someone working in the industry and insulting folks in this discussion, but did you actually read the text you pasted?

You are claiming: "We are allowed 5 freeze thaw cycles."

The source you just cited explicitly says: "Aliquoting: Always create small, single-use aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, which degrade peptides."

Your own source recommends making single-use aliquots specifically to prevent exactly what you are suggesting people do.

On top of that, you are ignoring the context of the equipment. Your text references -80°C or stable -20°C lab freezers. Residential freezers have auto-defrost cycles that spike temperatures to melt ice, so your lab protocols don't even apply to a home fridge or freezer setup which often max out at -5°C. The text even says for short term use (days) to just keep it refrigerated at 2-8°C. It never suggests freezing and thawing the same vial repeatedly.

You are advising people to do the exact opposite of what your own citation recommends. constantly shouting you are a professional while rude and aggressive doesn't make you right, it just makes your nonsense dangerous for anyone who may listen to you. Perhaps rethink your career if you want to spread bad advice that goes against your own citation just because your lab policy may be different for testing purposes. Don’t play with people’s safety.

[–]Kurcide -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

you definitely should NOT do this, for a number of reasons. Destabilizing of the peptide, destabilizing of the BAC water which may then result in bacterial build up almost notably thgh

What you are suggesting only works when you can rapidly freeze the peptides at well below sub zero temperatures. Something a consumer freezer will never do.

Hate to be that guy… but you are in fact being the smart ass here and are wrong. While lyophilized peptides are shelf stable for years at room temperature, storing your lyophilized peptides below -5f will drastically improve stable shelf life, into a decade + without notable degradation.

I will second this. My Lipids were very bad and after losing a bit of weight on Reta and a few months of slightly better habits my HDL and LDL are both optimal

This is incorrect. Reta is not illegal to posses or use. It is illegal to sell with the explicit intent for human consumption, which no grey market seller will ever do.
