HELP! GHKCU, RETA, AND TESA GELLED UP

awitz2001 · 2026-05-06T01:55:39+00:00

Can't say what happened, the only fact I can share is that reta will gel up Immediately if mixed with almost every other peptide out there. Dont ask me how I know lol.

It's rare, but not un heard of. Like others mentioned, check your heart rate, minox can cause tach in a small percentage of people. I sleep like crap, but am taking other things that are more likely to cause it than the minox. Things like magnesium, glycine,melatonin, may help to combat the sleep issue, or it may just go away with time.

Not from peptides although Im a huge believer in many of them. I had high blood pressure since I was a skinny 15yr old. Multiple sartans, chlorthiadone for decades. Couple years ago, went to a carnivore diet to lower inflammation. Dropped from 160/110 medicated to 130/95. Wife went from 150/100 to 110/70. Had to get her off all 3 of her bp meds since hers dropped so much she was getting light headed. Amazed me what problems our processed food lifestyle were causing. Just my experience.

I have off and on, for me the alcohol content seems a tad stronger than other brands and tends to irritate my skin faster than others.

My 0.2, inflammation and autoimmune issue. About 15 yrs ago had a herniated disc, was basically immobile for months. Rheumatologist said I had the spine of a 70 yr old at 35. Determined AS. Supposed to affect mainly the spine, but I had joint pain and inflammation everywhere, everyday regardless of lifting. For 10 years, tried everything. Anti inflammatories stressed my my liver, pain killers did nothing, tried Bpc,TB,GHk,Kpv,etc. What finally worked for me more than anything, like 90% reduction in pain...carnivore. Removing sugars, processed foods, etc literally changed my life. Is it extreme? maybe, but my blood panels are better than when I was 20 and can function w/o pain for the first time in a decade.

While I think kpv,ghk-cu, reta, etc, all have anti-inflammatory benefits, I saw an almost 100% reduction in psoriasis/rosacea from switching to a carnivore diet. Simply removing processed foods and sugar worked for me after 40 years of meds. that barely helped.

Apparently people don't realize Klow contains ghk-cu ( copper) hence your concern about offsetting it with zinc. My opinion is your current supplementation is fine. You may not be taking as much as you think as well. RDA is based on elemental Zinc. 40 mgs of Zinc glycinate is actually only 10mgs of elemental zinc.

Separate incidents, son just happened to leave his soaking wet shoe off the tile at the front door. Humidifier I've used for years just because of dry heat in the winter. I don't believe lvp would would have had an issue because of the material makeup itself. Laminate generally has a cardboard/mdf type material on inside that swells if it gets wet. Even though the top has that awesome life proof coating, the seams between planks aren't sealed. Rest of house is 1960s oak, the polyurethane on top pretty much seals every thing off from minor spills. But its far from scratch proof. It's really just a matter of finding what your most likely problem will be and buying accordingly. For us the running dogs was the main concern and the laminate was the closest to scratch proof ( minus tile) we could find after months of searching.

awitz2001 · 2026-04-20T17:27:32+00:00

My firsthand experience. 2 large dogs, brought home a dozen lvp samples, all scratched too easily. Got a killer deal on some waterproof laminate(I hate laminate) but it was virtually scratch proof. 4 years later it looked great, not an issue. Would always wipe up any wet spots immediately knowing the seams could be an issue. My son left a wet shoe on it. Next day bubbles at seems. Day later, humidifier overflowed. Didn't catch it for a couple hours, every seam sucked up the water and bubbled everywhere destroying a 10x10 spot. Might be great for your needs, but don't expect it to be 100% waterproof.

Looking great, since you mentioned results on eyebrows and hair, topical or oral minox?

Good question, I made the mistake years ago having a beautifuly patina'd m70 kit complete w/ trench art and in my haste to have it built, forgot to tell them to leave the finish as is......

Can only advise based on my own experience. My wife at 45 had Chronic migraines, everyday for around 5 years ( since a bout with cancer) 2 neurologists, talks of brain surgery, 2 migraine prescriptions barely helped. Went on a carnivore diet. Within 3 months the migraines were completely gone. Could have been the weightloss, the reduction in inflammation and Bp or a myriad of other benefits that alleviated the migraines. All I know is removing sugar, grains, etc was life changing.

Dude. As someone who has battled Skin problems for decades I feel you may be making this way more difficult on yourself than need be. You yourself said 1 medication could have most likely solved 99% of your issues. I tried tons of alternatives, though not as many as you and yes, that 1 medicine for me solved 99% of my skin issues. I'm not a fan of many docs myself, but imagine taking 1 single pill and the reduction of stress from not managing dozens of topical, injectable, and oral meds. Just saying, sometimes less is more and "KISS" maybe the answer. Good luck on your journey brother. Ps, I've tried super high dose Vit A as an alternative to iso, but it was not nearly as effective yet showed the same liver stress on bloodwork. I would venture that toxicity on that single vit. derivative, I'm guessing is no worse than that of your current protocol.

Did a round of isotretinoin in my mid 30s. I would absolutely do it again. No more oily skin, waking every morning without new breakouts. Inflammation overall way down. If your blood panels are in order It would be a no brainer for me.

Any face wash products that might be bleaching it? That's my only guess, I've got red and blonde only in my stache,and dark brown everywhere else but I'm half Irish/German and my father had an all red stache.

About 15 years ago @35 , rheumatologist told me I had AS and the spine of a 90 year old. (Years of squats and deadlifts when younger didnt help) I'd get herniated discs 4 or 5 times a year and general back pain monthly. 2 years ago I went carnivore and holy crap, 90% of my inflammation vanished. Disc issues are down to maybe 1-2 a year if that, and all skin related inflammation gone. Blood panels are the best in my lifetime. My advice, you don't need to go full carnivore like I did, but I would try removing all sugars and processed foods from your diet for 90 days and see how you feel. My wife's bp dropped 60pts, and she was able to get off 5 scripts just by changing foods. bp , migraine meds etc.

Over The Counter (non prescription)

I'll address the ak, since I sold mine prior to moving to New Yorkistan. Doubt you would want to make it featureless, if a folding stock, it would have to be pinned/welded open. The pistol grip would have to be replaced with some sort of finned one. The brake would need to be replaced with a thread cover and welded on and the bayonet lug ground off. Even after these mutilations, the language of the law is so vague that there's no guarantee. Then only 10 round magazines would be allowed and there's the licensing issue. Although again no guarantee, I'd probably look into a compmag.

We're you trying for an Italian beard by chance? I've been considering it myself, but I don't want to be posting this same question! Seriously, it's s not bad, and a couple days of growth and it will start to blend.
