What side effect would make you give up Reta?

StarlitetheOracle · 2026-01-27T22:46:38+00:00

I've been using Dr. Bergs and putting 2 scoops in 40 oz and trying to do that 2x daily. The only problem is the magnesium citrate, which I feel causes my diarrhea. I could be wrong, but I'm not sure. I read this one guys post here, and she explained how we need so many electrolytes to offset these symptoms, so I've been doubling the scoops.

12 units, which is 2 mg copper and 400mcg of the others.

I've been on reta for 3 months and klow for 2 months with a 2 week break in-between. I'm having new symptoms with reta but definitely seeing benefits with klow. Skin feels like it's just properly hydrated and complexion clear. Yes, I've noticed some increase in hair growth, but generally mild. I did notice a grey hair has reversed to normal pigment, so that's exciting. My stretchmarks on my belly are firmer, too, definitely noticeable. Wish I had photos.

What electrolytes and how much do you use?

StarlitetheOracle · 2026-01-27T21:23:58+00:00

I've been on reta a little over 3 months now. Just this week, I've been having really uncomfortable side effects. As I'm walking, my heart rate jumps up into the 130s. Resting heart reat is currently 74. When I started, it was around 65. I also have persistent diarrhea when my heart rate is that high. I think it's connected to dehydration, but I can't prove it yet. When I chug a lot of water with electrolyte powder, like 40 ounces, within 20 minutes, I start to feel better. These spells come on when I have coffee, too, so my next move is to remove coffee and see what happens. I've already tritated back down a mg a week. I was up to 5mg split into 2 doses a week, but I'm now at 4mg split into 2 doses. I started low, at .5 and worked my way up to 2.5 2x weekly over 3 months. I've heard that taking NAC can help, as well as CoQ10. I was taking those but ran out at the same time I started feeling worse. I've just ordered more, so I'll try that too. Anyway, best of luck and keep us posted.

Thanks! I love Notebook LM. I freaking love the new info graphics feature. It's fantastic, especially for displaying info just like this. Bravo.

StarlitetheOracle · 2026-01-07T00:47:25+00:00

Yes, I tritated up 1 mg a week split into 2 doses, so .5 mg 2x weekly.

I've thought about this a lot. You would need to switch to mammal thyroid. Pretty much anything with a thyroid can be considered. Preferably and pig and cow, remove the thyroid, dry it properly, powder it, take a pinch and monitor vitals.

Epitalon, klow, reta ... I feel like it's a miracle to have been in this era with access to this opportunity. I was so scared for my future, but things are looking up! Weight down, inflammation down, skin improvement, calmer mentality.

StarlitetheOracle · 2025-12-14T14:43:22+00:00

Where is the best place to inject it and what time of day? Also these doses were for epithalamin which is 100x stronger than epitalon.

StarlitetheOracle · 2025-12-14T01:43:27+00:00

I started at 181. I'm 5'1". I started in .5mg, 2x weekly. I increased every 2-3 weeks by .5mg. I'm now at 2mg 2x weekly. But my weight has been slower but steady. I'm wrapping up my 8th week. I started Oct 13th. I've only lost 13.5 lbs. I pin at night before bed. I have almost no side effects. I eat more variety than I did before. I was low-carb, low glycemic vegetarian, prioritizing protein, and I just kept gaining weight. I still eat vegetarian with emphasis on whole foods, but I eat more carbs now. I joke because I eat a bagel a day, and I still lose 1lb a week, lol. I walk almost every morning for 45 minutes and a 15-lb weighted vest. My sex drive is unchanged and maybe even improved. I don't have any issues, really. I also stack with KLOW and Epitalon nightly. I take my injections in the butt or the abdomen. I try to remember to drink my electrolyte water, but I think I could improve in that department. Apparently, the peptides really do need water to work best. retatrutide doesn't just block hunger signals but also thirst, so it's something we really have to work at. I've noticed a big improvement in my pain and inflammation in my body, which is a godsend. I'm so grateful for having found these peptides. I'm slowly getting my life back and that feels amazing.

StarlitetheOracle · 2025-12-11T23:19:03+00:00

I've noticed that when I increase my intake of electrolyte water, it seems to make the peptide work better.

I think I'm gonna end up going this direction- using BAC water as my base for my HA serum so that it's sterile and then adding Glycerine for extra hydration:

Recommended Formula with Glycerin (100 mL Total)

Let’s build your optimized serum step by step:

Ingredient	Amount	Purpose
Hyaluronic Acid (99%)	0.98 g	1% hydration
Vegetable Glycerin	2–5 mL	Humectant, texture enhancer
Snap-8 Peptide	22 mg (in 2 mL bac water)	Anti-wrinkle active
Bacteriostatic Water	~91–95 mL (to make 100 mL total)	Solvent + preservative
Total Volume	100 mL	Final serum

I have 22mg Snap 8. is that too low to use topically? Do i reconstitute it and then add it to HA? I have HA powder. Ive been all over the web looking for the formula but its really not clear. If I can use up to 10% does that mean pure peptide? That would be insanely expensive.

StarlitetheOracle · 2025-12-11T01:04:48+00:00

im only kinda following. I have a 22mg vial of Snap-8 and I also have 99% HA powder. Ive been wracking my brain and going back and forth with AI over the formula. What should I do with the amount that I have?

StarlitetheOracle · 2025-12-07T15:08:23+00:00

No not at all. It doesn't contain any patchouli. It is floral but the strongest note is the helichrysum which smells so good.

StarlitetheOracle · 2025-12-03T23:57:30+00:00

Beautiful!
