1:09Speaker 1Welcome back to the Peptide of the Week Podcast.
1:12Speaker 1I'm your host, JD Denham across the way.
1:15Speaker 1Not in a jacket is me, is my partner,
1:20Speaker 1my cohost and buddy, William T. Haas. What's up? Yep. What's up, dude? I it's so funny. So we were laughing off screen about how I'm never cold ever, ever, ever, ever. I don't like wearing jackets because I don't like taking them off and having to lug them around. When I walked out to my truck this morning, I was like, dude,
1:37Speaker 1it's freaking freezing today. I went back and got a jacket,
1:41Speaker 1which
1:42Speaker 3now you're not, and I'm wearing 1. Like, the tights have turned. Right. Well, well, tights kind of have turned, but it's not like I'm the cold I'm a cold 1 always. You know I mean? Like, I'm always hot also.
1:52Speaker 3California is weird. Me being from Washington State,
1:55Speaker 3you wear a jacket and kinda long sleeves throughout the day. You know what I mean? California, it sucks. If you wear a jacket, it's gonna come off by noon. Like, you just wear it or anything long sleeve. It gets too hot quickly even in the middle of winter, but it's cold right now. Yeah. So you're used to that. My hands are my fingers are, but I did walk in with a tank top on, but I just worked out before that. Yeah. So
2:14Speaker 1Equinox?
2:15Speaker 1Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. So you're used to that. So Californians,
2:18Speaker 1so me at least, I I would rather
2:21Speaker 1walk through the cold, like, from the from the car to the restaurant and just be freezing my butt off and not having to take the jacket off and hold it. I don't know if it's California thing, but Maybe. I'll leave the jacket. Always forget it. Be like, where the hell is my jacket? Oh, damn. I love the rest. I mean, I think you're rare, though, for Californians. Most people, if it's 65 degrees, they're wearing a parka, and they're like, it's too cold to go to work today. Right.
2:42Speaker 3So in Seattle, if it's 65 and sunny, people are wearing It's in the beach. They're Birkenstocks.
2:47Speaker 3And
2:49Speaker 3Shortest. Funny how that is. And but it's kind of I mean, the good thing is
2:53Speaker 3a little bit of, like, bright sun and at least 65.
2:56Speaker 3They're stoked. It it's they're stoked and people are happy and the streets are alive. Right? It's
3:02Speaker 3it doesn't take lot to get everybody happy
3:04Speaker 3now. Right? But pissed and like Yes. Yeah. But usually, we're hiding in our homes. Is there that's funny. Is there a lot of
3:10Speaker 3suicides and stuff in in in Seattle? I think so. Yeah. Because of that. I think that Seattle There's gotta be a correlation. Absolutely. I think Seattle's, like, the number 1 superstar in Isn't that crazy? Date in the nation. Yeah. Always gloomy. Also, I think there's also that whole correlation between that. There's probably also the most, like, heroin ODs.
3:26Speaker 1It's heroin's up big up there. Yeah. Yeah.
3:29Speaker 3It's always been known for that. It has always been known for that. And so yes. But there is a lot of suicides. When I used to run gyms,
3:35Speaker 3people would be, we we had, like, a corporate deal with Microsoft, so we had a lot of people coming in from different states. And they would all be like, yes. I'm depressed. Like, I'm taking my vitamin D pills Oh, wow. Because they're not used to this gloominess. But me, I was born in the dark. Like, it didn't really matter. You know I mean? Like, I was like, well, this is light, but you know. You just know. Your your socks are always kinda damp and your shoulders are always wet, and that's just how you live.
3:58Speaker 1That's interesting, dude. Yeah. Like, where you live, grow up with. Like, I I would grew up in SoCal.
4:04Speaker 1Right? It was punk rock. Just I don't know. That's I it's I always think, man, if I was born in, like, I don't know, like, Missouri, blah blah, would I be to the same type of music? It's so cool to it's cool to that. Although that's kind a generational thing too. That's true.
4:19Speaker 3Although the coasts
4:21Speaker 3always get the stuff 1st. Right? They're always more progressive. So Cal for sure. And sets the tone. Yeah. It does. Sets trends. Get all all the stuff from international. Right? Comes over the coasts. These guys pick up the trends, and it slowly leaks into the middle of the country. They're the last ones to get things. I think it's probably changed a little bit with the Internet, but like so I remember when I was when
4:41Speaker 1I was younger, you know, I have a cousin in my mom's side that same age as me, so we'd fly out to Texas every once in a while and like, you know, obviously he and I would hang. And like, dude, I'd hang with all of him and his buddies and I'd be like, what are you guys wearing, dude? Know? I was still wearing like trunks and stuff. I'm like, dude, what? Don't
4:58Speaker 1talk to me. You know? It's just funny though because we set the trends. Then soon after they were wearing the same type of stuff. Yep. Yep. Soon after. Great.
5:06Speaker 3But, yeah, now I know there's a better life here.
5:10Speaker 3Like like, damn. Now it's getting now it's hard to go back. Even when I go back, most of my family's in Texas and
5:15Speaker 1even there, I mean- It's humid as shit, bro. I can't even believe the humidity. It's miserably humid. No, I couldn't do it. I think I probably told you this, but I flew out to Austin and it was not I don't remember what month it was, but it wasn't like a hot month.
5:31Speaker 1And, dude, by the time that I got from left the airport to walk to the Uber place,
5:36Speaker 1I was drenched. My shirt I looked like I jumped in a pool. Yeah. I got to my buddy's house. He's like, what is wrong with you? Freaking
5:42Speaker 3hot air, dude. Shit. Yeah. And just nasty bugs.
5:47Speaker 3California.
5:48Speaker 3So we got You bitch about the cost. We got it good. Mean Really is that good. Yeah. Right. You know, people everybody bitch about the cost and says, hey, cost is
5:57Speaker 3I was literally listening to radio, and they were was it like conservative channels, and they're bagging in Newsom, which they regularly do, which they have a which,
6:04Speaker 3like, I don't necessarily disagree with. But, also, there's got to be
6:09Speaker 3I mean, there's some economic factors that's, like, not kinda his fault because
6:13Speaker 3everybody wants to live in California.
6:16Speaker 3That is raises prices. When there is that much demand Sure.
6:20Speaker 3Our prices just go higher. Now there's I'm not defending Newsom by any means at all. Like, he's the anyway. Yeah. We'll leave it there. I found yeah. I find the politicians that
6:30Speaker 3have like, this is why Hillary Clinton mostly didn't win election because she was annoying. Her, like, voice.
6:35Speaker 3And Houston people like it, but, man, his speech patterns just bugged the shit. Horrible.
6:41Speaker 1You know what I
6:42Speaker 1like about Yeah.
6:44Speaker 3Nothing. Nothing.
6:45Speaker 1Yeah. That's You know, it's funny,
6:48Speaker 1Brandon and I were talking about this earlier. She's like, because we were talking about, like, I did a podcast last night with Justin and we went political, man, and I'm I I am just apolitical. Like, people think I'm super conservative and, like, they're wrong because I don't I think they both suck. Yeah. And they're both liars. I'm like, I lean more conservative, but, like, hate all politics. You you you are basically libertarian,
7:09Speaker 1which basically you just want. No. You left alone, bro. I want my individual can do whatever you want. Yeah. Like, I think that's weird. Yeah. Okay. But that's cool. Like, you can think I'm weird and, like, let's just be friends. Yeah. How hard is that? Right. I know. But it's hard. It's apparently.
7:24Speaker 1Well, we have a new toy.
7:26Speaker 1And Will,
7:28Speaker 1my buddy, who is my techie friend and he's my intelligent friend, he's waiting, he's chomping at the bit for our new toy. So how this little toy came about, I told him, I said, Well, you know, my buddy Mark has this, this, this.
7:41Speaker 1And Will being Will had it within a couple of days. Yeah. So that's who he is. And so we continue to try to elevate this podcast. It's been a blessing. Hopefully
7:50Speaker 1you guys have seen that we've elevated it because the
7:53Speaker 1viewership's gone up, so that must mean something. Mhmm. So obviously, visuals and sound effects work. So now you're gonna have some additional sound visuals,
8:02Speaker 1which we will show you here momentarily.
8:04Speaker 1But today
8:06Speaker 1is the peptide of the week podcast. It's not the q and a. We are gonna be talking about 2 peptides,
8:12Speaker 1which my wife, my bride has been bugging me to talk about Kisspeptin because she wants to get pregnant. Yeah.
8:21Speaker 1I'll keep my a mom's word for me. I'd I'm 48, so I'll leave it there.
8:26Speaker 1But my beautiful bride wanted me to do this. So we're doing that. It's Kisspeptin.
8:30Speaker 1And then we're doing the 2nd 1 we're gonna be is TA 1, which is Thymosin Alpha-one, which is I think both of 1 of our favorites. It's definitely 1 of my favorites. It's kind of funny because I think there's still a lot of people that don't know about it because
8:41Speaker 1I see people all the time, they're sick, and I'm like, Have you taken thymosin alpha-one? And they're like, No, what's that? I'm like, Oh, really? Okay. So TA-one is great. It's an immunity peptide, but let's start with Kisspeptin
8:53Speaker 1because we're gonna talk a lot about the fertility Sure. Yep. Of, you know, for men and women. So why don't you dig into that? So we'll let's let's start to bust them. Cool. I'm not good. I get to use my the toy. So forgive me. I just kind of learned how to use it too.
9:06Speaker 1We were due before we were filming, he was playing with it, and then we were just watching him. He loves it. He he got it. He's from Seattle. Yeah. Right.
9:14Speaker 3The land of Microsoft. So I was born doing computers.
9:17Speaker 3Okay. So, Chad, so this is so we're gonna talk about Kisspeptin. Yep.
9:23Speaker 3Let's
9:24Speaker 3see if this works. Beautiful.
9:26Speaker 3So here's how Kisspeptin works.
9:30Speaker 3Oh.
9:32Speaker 3We're do this with a microphone.
9:34Speaker 3So There we go. Kisspeptin for men. Okay. The interesting thing is Kisspeptin nasal spray and actual, like, injectable peptide. Yeah. So Kisspeptin goes in and 1st works on your brain. Right? Your hypothalamus
9:48Speaker 3creates this GNRH
9:50Speaker 3signal, which then goes to your pituitary, which also in your brain. Pituitary
9:55Speaker 3helps basically tells your body to make a some testosterone, but it also is is what we've talked about helps your body make
10:03Speaker 3HGH, natural HGH. Okay? But for this purpose,
10:07Speaker 3Kisspeptin goes in. Hypothalamus tells GnRH,
10:10Speaker 3goes to your pituitary. Pituitary then tells your
10:15Speaker 3testes.
10:16Speaker 3These are ovaries.
10:17Speaker 3These are testes.
10:18Speaker 3They're the same thing. Everybody just just realized that men have or have ovaries. They've just dropped.
10:25Speaker 3So it breaks onto 2 things, luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone. This is important. Luteinizing hormone
10:33Speaker 3basically tells your testy to create more natural testosterone,
10:37Speaker 3okay, and make your gonads a bit bigger, but that will actually give us effect of of what testosterone
10:44Speaker 1does. But
10:45Speaker 3not so much actual fertility.
10:48Speaker 3Okay?
10:49Speaker 3This guy, your FSH is more fertility. So your sperm is actually, like, active and useful for making babies.
10:57Speaker 3K? So this is it's a basic easy feedback loop. K?
11:03Speaker 3And then, right, your body makes more endogenous testosterone
11:06Speaker 3and intratesticular
11:08Speaker 3testosterone. Sperm production
11:10Speaker 3equals fertility.
11:11Speaker 3And secondary, because of these, libido, erection quality for men. Now women,
11:18Speaker 3women, basically, the interesting thing, it's the same damn thing. Literally. Right? Literally the same it's the same process. Generate. Okay. Except for it goes luteinizing hormone, FSH in their ovaries. Okay?
11:28Speaker 3Benefits, follicle development, ovulation, estrogen production,
11:32Speaker 3and progesterone production. So these are kind of our main hormones for women,
11:39Speaker 3women who are in perimenopause.
11:41Speaker 3Right? We have issues with these productions. So it would lead us to think that Kisspeptin would be a great thing to take in perimenopause.
11:48Speaker 1Right. Also for women trying to get pregnant, just like men. So men, women, I'd suggest it. Creating fertility. So for 1 of the things that I like to talk about, because of what I studied it because of my bride, as I said, she is still breastfeeding, so she's not able to get pregnant. She can, but it's pretty rare.
12:04Speaker 1But this is gonna help as she comes off of that to really start to
12:10Speaker 1keep her get her fertile, to be blunt. So it will really help with that. Now here is the thing. Those men who are on
12:18Speaker 3TRT We know you're gonna ask. We we we knew that. Here is the problem. Kisspeptin's probably not for you. Okay? So it's
12:27Speaker 3when if we have exogenous testosterone, which your body goes, hey. I have a lot of testosterone. I'm good. This axis right here, this signal
12:35Speaker 3goes, nope. I have a lot of tests. I don't need to tell these guys to light up and make more. So literally,
12:42Speaker 3goodbye,
12:43Speaker 3goodbye,
12:44Speaker 3and goodbye.
12:46Speaker 3Yes. Does not work on TRT.
12:49Speaker 1Right. Okay.
12:51Speaker 3Unfortunately. So maybe get off TRT, then it'll work. Or if you know if you haven't been on it Yeah. It'll work.
12:57Speaker 3Options.
12:58Speaker 3So options are so HCG,
13:01Speaker 3like, a lot of people know HCG and take that for fertility or for post cycle reasons.
13:06Speaker 3The benefit with
13:08Speaker 3HCG is it skips the brain activity. Right? It skips this whole axis,
13:12Speaker 3and it just floods your body directly with luteinizing hormone. Okay? Just directly pushes, pushes, pushes. But realize that that's the testosterone
13:22Speaker 3making portion,
13:23Speaker 3not the fertility portion.
13:25Speaker 3K? But the caveat really is if you push enough of this, it does start to trickle over into the FSH
13:32Speaker 3because people will say, well, wait a minute. I've I I mean, you you took enough HCG and got your wife pregnant. Twice. So that's the reason. Twice.
13:40Speaker 3So
13:41Speaker 3there's
13:43Speaker 3yes. So HCG just pushes. If you're on TRT, that's probably what you wanna take. Yeah. Take a lot of it.
13:49Speaker 3Next is
13:50Speaker 1we'll save this for later. Yeah. So there's The TA-1s. So we'll so it's interesting as he's as he's talking about about all that stuff. So the fertility stuff's gonna be great. The
14:00Speaker 1Kisspeptin helps with the fertility of men and women,
14:03Speaker 1which is great. However,
14:05Speaker 1as he just said, you're running TRT,
14:08Speaker 1it's not gonna work. So we've said it numerous times, and it was great to have Doctor. Tyler on because he really validated what we kind of already I don't say kind of already knew. Were unique because we've worked with so many guys and friends and working through the HCG
14:22Speaker 1that the, in his dosage was very similar to what we said. So which is great because basically 1000 IUs Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I don't think it's going be an exact math, but I have done 1000 IUs
14:34Speaker 3Monday, Wednesday, Friday, multiple times, and it's worked. Multiple friends that we have worked with Mhmm. Just suggesting that it works great. You know? And it sure works like he was talking a lot of sex drive. Yeah. He was saying, don't do an AI because that kills your estrogen. We need estrogen. Estrogen is a sex hormone for for men and for women, just a little bit in men. But don't do that because that you you do too much, and it kills off the estrogen, kills too much, and now we have no sex drive. So but he's a big proponent of HCG.
15:02Speaker 3He's at the point of and and it is working because that's the thing that is helping men create
15:07Speaker 3more natural testosterone.
15:09Speaker 3But
15:11Speaker 3not so much more natural actual, like, active sperm. Right. But it does kind of work. So that's why you will if if people read up online, there's a ton of difference of opinions Yeah. Amongst doctors. They go, great. HCG is good for post cycle, but not good for fertility. Right. That's why. But we have found proof is in the pudding. Like, I don't know. I mean, reading
15:31Speaker 3these these documents, right, is 1 thing, but I
15:34Speaker 3almost
15:35Speaker 3I kind of tend to Are they always right? Obviously. They're absolutely not. And, we have more practical experience than most and a lot of it. I know. And it proves that
15:44Speaker 3you can boost that testosterone enough where it turns into the FSH and can help your actual sperm go. What I found interesting about Doctor. Tyler,
15:53Speaker 1even kind of compared to Doctor. Scott, I mean, very similar and very similar opinions, but man, his numbers, man, he ran his numbers extremely high. And I don't I was very surprised by that. His estrogen,
16:04Speaker 1he likes his estrogen higher. He likes his, obviously, free testosterone was super high and his testosterone.
16:10Speaker 3And I don't know. Did you find that odd? Dude, I found it very odd, but he happens to be but, like, again 240 free testosterone. If you if you put that to most of the guys, they're gonna have gyno
16:20Speaker 3and acne all over the place and look plump and round with all the water retention. So, like, maybe
16:25Speaker 3he just happens to be that type of person who doesn't really, like, show Yeah. A lot of those estrogenic symptoms. Because I think most people, if you if you test out like that,
16:34Speaker 1you're gonna not be happy. Yeah. And you're gonna have to take an AI to get rid of that. Yeah. I mean, everybody's different in the estrogen and converting to estrogen. I mean, I've studied it just for my own, just because I've, you know, had battled it for years.
16:46Speaker 1Generally speaking, if you're, as you would, about 50, 50, I think marker on the estro- Yeah. Give or take.
16:53Speaker 1Sounds about right. Convert where, he was talking about a lot higher than that. So it was interesting. We love his stuff. You probably convert. You have to
17:01Speaker 1obviously trial this stuff. You have to we talk about it all the time. It's it's funny because
17:07Speaker 1I've said this story before, but I'm sure there's a lot lot of new listeners when it came down to my bride trying to get pregnant. I want to talk about the story again, because it's a great story. And my
17:17Speaker 1doctor at the time, who I respected greatly, still do, we talked to him often. He knew a lot about a lot and I respected him and I trusted him and it wasn't a lack of trust or even I think necessarily knowledge.
17:31Speaker 1That's what they practice. Like they're continuing to learn as we all are, But he was telling me that I couldn't get my bride pregnant
17:38Speaker 1coming off. I had to come off TRT and I'm like, Dude. And I drove home thinking, There's just no way, man. Like, how do these big buff,
17:45Speaker 1like, you know, steroid dudes get their bride? You know, they have babies. So like, I just started to use logic. I'm like, Dude, there's got to be a way. And I just went home and studied and started reading.
17:55Speaker 1I'm like, Oh, wait,
17:56Speaker 1it does say that you can. And I brought it back to him. And again, I want to be just be redundant for reason. He's great. I love him. I respect him. He knows a lot about a lot. Like, he and I, like, would have conversations. He loves all this stuff too, you know?
18:09Speaker 1But he was wrong because I was like, Can you prescribe me this HCG? Because he's like, I don't think He says, I can kind of see how that might make sense, but like, I don't think it's gonna happen. And I'm like, so he had left it in my head that it's not gonna happen, but I had read that it could happen. So
18:25Speaker 1I went, he prescribed me HCG.
18:27Speaker 1This is like years ago.
18:29Speaker 1And I didn't think it was gonna happen because he made me think that it wasn't gonna happen because I respected him, but I did it anyway.
18:35Speaker 1And my Alyssa got pregnant and she she showed me it and, like, I didn't know how realistic those things are.
18:42Speaker 1Had never Googled it, never seen 1. Now she's holding the plus and, like, I'm like, dude, I don't think that's real. Then I Googled and it's like 99.9%
18:49Speaker 1accurate. I'm like,
18:51Speaker 1He was wrong. He
18:53Speaker 1was wrong. He still didn't believe you. You said, Hey, I got pregnant. He's like, Yeah. Well, so the coolest part of that is like, so we had the baby, my son, Jax, and everything's great. You know, my wife wants to have another baby. And so now it had been, you know, I think 2 years or give or take, and she had stopped breastfeeding and it's time to have another baby. And so I go back to doctor
19:12Speaker 1and
19:13Speaker 1again, respect him heavily. She wanted to come this time. She had some questions for him. And so we go to the doctor, we're talking, and he just said, JD, because he's become a friend, you know. He
19:23Speaker 1said, JD, I love you, man. He goes, I
19:26Speaker 1gotta be honest with you. Think God just blessed you. And I'm like,
19:30Speaker 1I think so. But I said,
19:32Speaker 1I had read it, you know, blah, blah, blah. And so,
19:35Speaker 1you know, we both kind of left a little deflated still because it kind of put it back in my head.
19:40Speaker 1But he prescribed me the HCG and I took 1000. I use Monday, Wednesday, Friday. It took months kind of build up and then baby 2. So
19:47Speaker 1then
19:48Speaker 1after that, I called him, I said, Hey man, you know, just had another baby. So the HCG worked, dude. You know, and he's like, you know, kind of surprised. Months later,
19:56Speaker 1I get a call from a doctor
19:59Speaker 1and he goes, Hey, brother.
20:02Speaker 1My wife wants to get pregnant. I don't want to come off TRT. What is the doses? What is protocol that you did? Yeah. Rad story. But the part of that is funny and is a good story is the fact that doctors are great, some are better than others.
20:14Speaker 1They call it practice for a reason, but like the
20:17Speaker 1books say this, but if you have thousands of other people that you see hands on that it has worked
20:24Speaker 1over here.
20:26Speaker 1What's right?
20:27Speaker 1Like, you know, we have firsthand knowledge about what we do for a living now on so many different compounds on different things that
20:34Speaker 1doctors say this because they read it here and that's what's in the journals or whatever.
20:39Speaker 1Over here, it just says very differently. Yep. And it just works differently. So everybody's
20:44Speaker 1body is body different. A lot of it, but but some of it's just that stuff's wrong. Well, yeah, and our body's just effing complex. Like, God made us,
20:54Speaker 3like, really, really complex and and very effective Seriously. Efficient Right. Body.
20:59Speaker 1And we don't quite understand. Why do some men convert to estrogen and some don't? Like, I had a lot of buddies that never dealt with gyno. And I was always like, dude, why did I get this shit, man? Like, I can't even do hardly any testosterone,
21:10Speaker 1but, you know, this is the way it is. Yep. It's the way it is.
21:13Speaker 3Interesting stuff, man. So Kisspeptin
21:15Speaker 3dose so here's the last bit about Kisspeptin that I don't have in my
21:20Speaker 3yes.
21:21Speaker 3Those GHs.
21:23Speaker 3Basically,
21:24Speaker 3our this production
21:26Speaker 3here is 1 of those testes,
21:28Speaker 3is
21:30Speaker 3pulsatile.
21:30Speaker 3Very similar, not I mean, similar to, like, our HGH production. Right? It's pulsatile. So it so we shoot in pulses. There's no, like, steady stream of LH and especially FSH. Okay? So what happens if you and actually, right now, clinically, they are using Kisspeptin
21:47Speaker 3into people where they give them high doses and very frequent dosing to shut off their fertility.
21:53Speaker 3K? Because when we have too much of a flood
21:57Speaker 3of these coming in, this axis decides, whoop, let's just shut down. Let's we it gets blunted, and it just will stop working. Okay? So they're actually using it clinically to shut people's fertility down. So the important thing is if you wanna use this for being fertile Yeah. You need to not do a lot. Yeah. And you need to do it not very frequently. And so I've
22:16Speaker 3basically, my suggestion of what I'm going to do is,
22:20Speaker 3I mean, it's 1 to 3 times a week. No more than that. Not every day, definitely, but, like, 3 times a week max. And I did the calculation for, like, my body weight, and I'm about 2 42 45.
22:32Speaker 3I'm doing I should be doing about a 140
22:35Speaker 33 times a week.
22:36Speaker 3That's it. That's it. That's very small. Right? Yeah.
22:40Speaker 3You know, 1 mg is 1000 micrograms. Right. So
22:46Speaker 3that's about where I'd say I'd say between a 100 150
22:49Speaker 3micrograms
22:50Speaker 33 times a week is about all you want to If
22:54Speaker 1you have a bottle of 10 megs, we generally would recommend
22:58Speaker 11 mil of water put in there. So
23:01Speaker 1to keep it simple math, 10 units would be 1 mg. So Will is saying 150
23:06Speaker 1micrograms.
23:07Speaker 3So that's a very little So frankly, even if you put 1 mil in, okay, and you do 5 units, that's gonna be 500
23:15Speaker 3micrograms.
23:16Speaker 3So you should put 2 mils. You probably should put 2 mils. If you put 1 mil and you do 2.5 units, that's 250 micrograms. So There it is. I'd probably add 2 mils.
23:25Speaker 3Yep. And that makes it so 5 units is 1000
23:29Speaker 3or is a 500 micrograms.
23:32Speaker 3It's already 5 5 5 units is already 500 micrograms.
23:37Speaker 1At 2 mills, you have At 1 mill because
23:39Speaker 3it is. I promise. At 1 mill, 5 units is 500 micrograms.
23:44Speaker 3At 2 mills,
23:46Speaker 1then
23:47Speaker 3we're gonna double that.
23:50Speaker 3I don't know. I'm gonna on the spot, forgetting.
23:52Speaker 3250.
23:54Speaker 3Yeah. I think it'll be 250.
23:55Speaker 1It'll be it'll be 0.5 of that. Yeah. It makes sense. So that that because, like, as, you know, definitely
24:03Speaker 1continued to grow. We continue to learn and like when we I mean, we're talking like, I think a year ago, I was taking Kisspeptin because
24:10Speaker 1fertility,
24:11Speaker 1libido, I was sure reading about it and I was like, this is freaking dope. Let me try it. You know? I always wanna try everything. You know, why not? Because I wanna see how my body responds
24:19Speaker 1so that I can, like, kind of pass out on other people, blah blah blah.
24:22Speaker 1At the time,
24:24Speaker 1right or wrong or different,
24:25Speaker 1we had the dosages very different. I was taking it daily. Yep. I always try to do the math where it's 10 units basically daily,
24:32Speaker 3and it was way too much. Yep. So, yeah, so we are right. If you put 2 mils in, okay, and then you do 5 units, that's 250 micrograms.
24:41Speaker 3Okay. That's still a little bit much. So we still wanna do, I mean, shit, 2.5.
24:45Speaker 3You could add 3 mils That's probably best. Then do I mean, and here's the easiest math. I'll just go time. 3 mil, take your milligrams, 10 mg per bottle Mhmm. Usually.
24:54Speaker 3And if we put 3 mils in, I was trying to teach Brandy this, but I divide that by 30. 3 mils and do 5 units. Will tell you how much is in 10
25:02Speaker 3units. Yep. K? The milligram's 10 divided by 30. That's if you put 3 mils in, tells you 10 unit how much is in 10 units? But you're gonna have to do that on your calculators because I don't have a calculator.
25:13Speaker 1But still though, like, what we're this as we break this down, I think the simplest way to do it is 3 mils. Yeah. And then just do 5 units because anything under that is just, like, just do 5 units, and that's basically a little bit. That's like 300 micrograms probably. Yeah.
25:26Speaker 3Then divided by 30,
25:29Speaker 310 units is 0.33 micrograms. So we divide that by 2
25:33Speaker 3and 1.6.
25:35Speaker 3So I would do 3 mils and inject 5 units. Yeah. Agreed.
25:39Speaker 3That's 1.5
25:40Speaker 3micro or 150 micrograms. Right.
25:44Speaker 1That's the to do it. The way to do it. So that bottle will last a long Friday. Bottle will last a real long time. Oh, that's great. So that's great. But
25:50Speaker 3if you're on TRT, don't do it. Some other things, folks, like if you
25:54Speaker 3so the interest that we can go over this later, but there is something known as HMG.
25:58Speaker 3Okay?
25:59Speaker 3That
26:01Speaker 3works like the HCG where it skips this loop and just floods you, but it floods you with both of these. K? LH and FSH. Okay? Whereas just the HCG just floods you with LH. Right. Why don't we then tell everybody to do HMG? Right? Well, you need to do about 75
26:18Speaker 3Right. 3 days a week. Okay? And 1 bottle of 75 IUs, they'll cost you on, like, the kinda inexpensive end about $90.
26:26Speaker 3So Thousand a month? Yeah. You're at 270
26:28Speaker 1a week,
26:30Speaker 3like, on the low end. And who knows? You might have to do this for 6 months, maybe a year. Will and I were talking off screen ways. We were kinda talking through this, and, we've only had 1 friend that has done it. Yep. And we know him. He's got the money to do it. Yeah. And it worked. Yeah. And it worked. And it worked. Yeah. Well, it worked. So, like, it's funny though it worked, but he also was on HCG. Was also on HCG for a long time. And, like, he actually only used, I think, 4 bottles of the kit he bought, and then she was pregnant.
26:57Speaker 3And he just gave me the rest of back. It's like, I don't need any money back. Just
27:01Speaker 1He's a good dude. Yeah. But yeah. So there it is. So
27:04Speaker 1there it is. That's Kisspeptin. Definitely works with the fertility. If you're on TRT, don't do it.
27:10Speaker 1Just get on the HCG,
27:12Speaker 1fellas.
27:13Speaker 1You it works.
27:15Speaker 1It I we can't say 100% certainty, but it definitely works, man. We have countless people there that Alright. So then we got our we'll go into
27:24Speaker 3thymosin
27:25Speaker 3alpha. Yeah. I'm gonna skip through these. Here's a big long big slide of a whole bunch of noise here. Thymosin Alpha-one is basically immunity.
27:34Speaker 1It's it's the immunity peptide.
27:37Speaker 1Go for it. Okay. So it's immunity peptide. Interesting.
27:40Speaker 1Well, I think this does interesting, but okay.
27:43Speaker 3What it does, it basically
27:46Speaker 3your T cells, our helper T cells and our killer T cells are actually born in your bone marrow. Alright? They go to this thymus gland right here to be trained. Okay? This thymus gland
27:58Speaker 3basically trains them on how they do their job.
28:01Speaker 3Help T helper cells identify
28:03Speaker 3essentially
28:04Speaker 3viruses or pathogens,
28:06Speaker 3and the T killer cells kill them.
28:09Speaker 3TA-one is basically gonna multiply the amount of t of those cells and
28:15Speaker 3really kind of put them through, like, special forces training. Right? Really, really, really train them up so they're way better at their job.
28:22Speaker 3So here's our T cells. Right? The cool thing about this is so it
28:27Speaker 3so as thymosin alpha is going in your body, when we see a, like, a a pathogen,
28:33Speaker 3your body will identify that pathogen way better and
28:37Speaker 3tell killer cells, hey, kill that thing. Get it. So it's really, really good about that.
28:43Speaker 3In this diagram,
28:44Speaker 3the man's he's got glowing testes. That was not supposed to be there,
28:49Speaker 3but they're there. But good for him. He just did Kisspeptin also. Yeah. So the good thing so, a, it's gonna boost immune system when it is weak and really identify
28:58Speaker 3cancerous cells,
29:00Speaker 3you know, in diseased cells
29:03Speaker 3and attack them, but also
29:05Speaker 3the immune natural modulation.
29:07Speaker 3So
29:08Speaker 3it is not just in, like, an immune stimulator.
29:11Speaker 3Right? It will balance out. So a lot of people have an overactive immune system. You're wondering, well, you have you have an overactive immune response
29:18Speaker 3on something right now. Yep. It will tell it will notice that and modulate that, right, and say, hey, overactive immune system, let's chill out, slow down, which in turn reduces the hell out of inflammation.
29:30Speaker 3Yeah. 1 of the biggest things that Thymosin Alpha does That's what? Is do that. It basically seeks out any overactive immune system and
29:37Speaker 3which reduces inflammation. So if we're looking for overall body inflammation,
29:42Speaker 1TA-one is your So he's talking about is an autoimmune. A lot of people are autoimmune, so that's basically what he's saying. If you've been auto and there's so many autoimmunes, it can really help with a lot of them. Yep. So here is and essentially, this is just showing a thymus gland,
29:56Speaker 3special forces training ground recruitment, T helper cells, T killer cells.
30:01Speaker 3Overactive immune, so it's immunomodulatory,
30:03Speaker 3not immune stimulating.
30:05Speaker 3Here is our big list of benefits. Right? Enhanced immune memory,
30:09Speaker 3improved immune coordination, strengthens response to vaccines and infection. Boom. Balances innate and adaptive
30:15Speaker 3immunity,
30:16Speaker 3improves immune tolerance,
30:18Speaker 3support and recovery after immune stress,
30:21Speaker 3helps restore immune responsiveness, improve infection resilience, and support immune surveillance.
30:26Speaker 3Cancer defense.
30:27Speaker 3It is being known to be used as an adjunct treatment in some cancer scenarios.
30:34Speaker 3K.
30:35Speaker 3Here's my
30:37Speaker 3here's my quick analogy. Right? If your immune system were a military, TA-one improves officer training, right, training the T cells, improves battlefield communication,
30:47Speaker 3reduces friendly fire, which is your autoimmune overreaction,
30:51Speaker 3and keeps troops from overreacting.
30:53Speaker 3Cytokine control.
30:54Speaker 3It makes the system smarter and more efficient and not just more aggressive. And finally, like, just to it the stuff works. So it is being sold under the brand name Zadaxin
31:04Speaker 3in, like, 35 plus countries
31:06Speaker 3and actually being used for chronic hepatitis B and C, sepsis, immune suppressions,
31:11Speaker 3cancers as an adjunct treatment, and COVID immune support. And I'm allowed to say that because it actually is approved
31:18Speaker 3and being used for that. So
31:21Speaker 1there's TA 1 dude. It's awesome. Mean, it's awesome.
31:24Speaker 1If you fly without TA 1, you're silly Because what when do people get sick a lot? So many people get sick when they fly,
31:31Speaker 1so you should be taking it, I would say, at least a week before you fly, week after you fly, and it will help. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. And I mean, I don't get sick that much by itself, but I know that you and I have talked about this, but it's so it's it's a great story, and there's like I said, there's always gonna be new listeners. And I
31:47Speaker 1was in Mexico when everybody got sick at this this
31:51Speaker 1all you can eat place. Everybody. Like, there was, like, 50 people that went to this darn wedding,
31:57Speaker 1my wife included, but I was the only 1 on TA-1and
31:59Speaker 1I didn't get sick. Now, I don't get sick that often anyway,
32:03Speaker 1but I was on Thymosin Alpha-one,
32:05Speaker 1and, I was the only 1 literally the only 1 I got sick. My wife and kids came back just
32:10Speaker 1really sick.
32:11Speaker 1Stuff works, dude. It works. I always use it when I think, yes, flying, I don't know, going on vacation or or Where were you? Then I'm like, did you take TA 1? You're like, no. I'm like, what are you thinking? Right. But I was sick. It was just no. Yeah. It was a cool game. Seattle game. Yeah. Yeah.
32:26Speaker 3And I did not take it with me, and I did get sick. Although I blasted it while I was sick, and I was good in a day and 0.5. That's crazy. And I can't remember last time I've actually been actually sick Right. Since I've known about this and since I've taken it. My wife, every time, man, she starts to feel sick, we, we blast her with TA 1 and then, you know, some extra glutathione. But Glutathione b 12, some, like, vitamin b 12 injections. Always. B 12.
32:49Speaker 1Mean, I that's a little cocktail that I think if you're sick, the glutathione,
32:52Speaker 1B-twelve,
32:53Speaker 1and just TA-one would really bust you out in a couple of days. 1 thing that I want to say, because I've done quite a bit of research on it,
33:01Speaker 1is
33:02Speaker 1it really does help with a lot of autoimmune issues
33:06Speaker 1because a lot of people have those. It really can. 1 of the things that I have read though, is that if you have a flare up of an autoimmune issue, which I have often,
33:16Speaker 1That's why I was researching this particular situation.
33:19Speaker 1It can actually enhance it. So, I don't know. I don't really understand the why of that, but if you have an actual flare up of your autoimmune
33:29Speaker 1and you take it, it can actually flare it up. And the reason I researched that because I felt like like I was having flare ups way too often. I was like, what's going on here? You know? And I think that might have been the culprit. Yep. It probably was. We've been told that. We've we've researched
33:43Speaker 1that, and that may be true. So- it just it goes back to, like, everybody's different. It goes back to everybody's different. It goes back to, like, there's tons of different autoimmune issues. You just won't know until you try it, and it just takes some trial trial and error on on all of our parts. So what do you guys do for doses? What what kind of dosage were you you and the wife using? Yeah. So generally speaking is
34:04Speaker 1if you're gonna get a a 10 mg bottle, you're gonna put in generally, we say about a mil. Yeah. Right? So that's and I always kinda keep it easy. 1 mg. I think you do a little bit more. I do. Yeah. I do like maybe 1.5
34:15Speaker 3mgs. So I'll put 1 mil in. It mixes very well with water, so you don't it's not you only need 1 mg. It's not like you need to over dilute it because there's so much powder or it's tough to mix into water. But I put 1 1
34:28Speaker 31 ml of water, which is a 100 units of water. And then I generally do, yeah, about a mig and 0.5, so 15 units.
34:37Speaker 3But you don't run, like, run it for a longer period. No. You run it when you get sick. I run it when I get sick or maybe going in there or or hell, even like if you've been I noticed here's what I actually have something funny. I noticed when I've been starting to get when I'm starting to get run down a bit, right, not sleeping, like working too much or just working out too much, I start to get like a hangnails.
34:56Speaker 3And
34:57Speaker 3because and it's interesting because, like, I'm not my tissue is not growing back fast enough. Right? So That's interesting. It's, because when we sleep and we're eating healthy, right, and we're getting enough rest, right, everything should be
35:10Speaker 3growing back. If we're eating enough protein, your fingernails should be growing fast. Your hair should be growing fast. Right? That's 1 way to know if a person's trying to build a lot of muscle,
35:17Speaker 3like, alright, eat a lot of protein. And how do you know if you're eating a lot of protein? If your nail if you're getting like, damn, dude, I just clipped those things. We gotta do it again. That's a good very good sign. Right. K? Because it's just growing tissue. But I definitely noticed, like, stuff isn't repairing
35:30Speaker 3as it should, but that's it's that is how I notice it. And then I actually will start TA 1 and run it for maybe a week and 0.5, and I don't get sick. Yeah. Or
35:38Speaker 3any other markers, but I don't run it consistently. I know my girl to combat inflammation.
35:44Speaker 3Yeah. She will absolutely do it, and she's been doing this for, I think, a few weeks now. I'm just going 3 days a week.
35:51Speaker 3She went every day while she was sick and then kinda backed it off Mhmm. 3 days a week. But she really wasn't even sick. Yeah. She had, like, made, like, some sniffles for a night. Right.
36:01Speaker 1Yeah. I run it in different forms. I do it for,
36:04Speaker 1I'll do it for, like, like, a couple months at a time and just do 10 units. I I try to keep everything at 10 units. We've talked about it before just to keep it simple. So I don't know. I don't have to, like, think through when I'm doing it in the morning.
36:16Speaker 3Oh, Botox.
36:18Speaker 1Botox. Yeah. So Botox is interesting. So 1 of the reasons why my wife stopped taking it on on more of a regular basis is our
36:26Speaker 1our Botox gal or she's a nurse practitioner.
36:29Speaker 1She owns a couple of wellness centers and she's brilliant. She's gonna come on the show, I think, week. We're gonna try to get her on. I've been talking to her about it forever. She's a very interesting gal. You guys are gonna love her. Her name is Lee. She flies all over the world, and she does different studies on all kinds of stuff. She just is like she she's a geek on all this stuff. But anyways, all that being said, but for women. Yeah, she's gonna be talking about she she just started doing pellets and TRT, so we're gonna bring her on and talk about that TRT for you ladies. We're gonna talk about some different stuff to keep you pretty and healthy and all that stuff. She's great.
37:00Speaker 1But she had told my wife that the TA-one, it will actually diminish Botox.
37:06Speaker 3It'll make it it'll flush it out of your system faster. Yeah. Because it's supposed to last.
37:12Speaker 1So I don't know. I, how I got into Botox,
37:29Speaker 1I had my armpits just
37:32Speaker 1drip sweat, like a faucet drip sweat.
37:35Speaker 1And I just figured I was detoxing. I had done drugs for a long time. Listen, this is gonna run its course. And it literally, I think 2 years and this never stopped. And I was like, dude, what the hell is going on here? So I started researching it, blah, blah, blah, figured
37:48Speaker 1out that you could put Botox in there and it would stop it. So that's when I started going in and get Botox.
37:54Speaker 1Then- Maybe that's why you're so hot. Your body can't ventilate itself. Well, that's interesting. So then I got the Botox, it worked because I used to be like, you know, run a mortgage company and like dripping sweat. It was horrible, you know? So then it worked and I was like, this is amazing. So that's how I got into Botox. That's how I met Lee, ironically.
38:11Speaker 1But a little
38:12Speaker 1segue here into, so when I started with this head thing, this autoimmune,
38:17Speaker 1sat down with a holistic doctor, which was very interesting. Have you ever done Very interesting how they approach it. So I sit down, it was actually Kate's cousin,
38:27Speaker 1Christy. Remember Christy? Yeah, I think so. So I didn't I sit down with her. It was a 3 hour interview basically of like my life, all the things that happened. Like she digs into life. And what I was interested by this was I'd never had She's not a doctor, but like it was holistic medicine.
38:45Speaker 1Digging into asking me deep questions about stuff. Man, I hadn't even thought about that forever.
38:50Speaker 1And long story short, after I left and she had said, Let me get some time. She'd obviously done deep thinking on it.
38:57Speaker 1She called me and said, I think it might be the Botox you're plugging.
39:01Speaker 1Right? I'm like, Well, that's actually pretty freaking logical.
39:05Speaker 1So it was the interesting part about that and the
39:08Speaker 1point of that was that
39:10Speaker 1should be how doctors do it to a degree. Like,
39:13Speaker 1how do you sleep?
39:14Speaker 1How are you eating?
39:15Speaker 1Because another
39:17Speaker 1reason I say that is when I was talking with Doctor. Scott about my blood work, I was the reason that I had generated that is like, I was exhausted. I just felt so run down and I take a lot of peptides.
39:27Speaker 1I'm healthy,
39:29Speaker 1but I would just run down.
39:30Speaker 1Long story short, he goes, Well, how are you sleeping? I said, I sleep like freaking shit. Like, and he said, that's it. Yeah, that's it. Yeah. So if that we don't talk about it enough. Sleeps- Sleeps the most freaking important, dude. And I'm realizing because
39:44Speaker 1I have 2 kids, a 4 year old and a 2 year old, and there's constant screaming and they climbing in our bed and I'm getting kicked like a ninja.
39:52Speaker 1I don't sleep well.
39:54Speaker 1If I'm not sleeping well a few days in a row, it compounds and that literally is what the culprit is. Yeah. You guys aren't sleeping. I can't stress enough. Sleep is a huge, huge, huge, prepare. When
40:04Speaker 3That's when long term, short term memory goes long term. If you're lifting weights and wanna grow and you're not sleeping, you ain't gonna grow that fast. And you're not enhanced. I always you know, I've seen these bodybuilders who are obviously, you know, pro pro bodybuilders steroid it up and then tell everybody like, oh, I work so hard. I sleep 3 hours a night. You know?
40:20Speaker 3And everybody's like, what's the hell? Sleep was was good. Well, yeah, but here's the thing. If you're in the hands Yeah. Your body just grows 24 7. So you don't the sleep isn't as you know, if you're blasting that many steroids. But for the normal people and most of the population, sleep's in very, very important. It's the only way that you're gonna grow any muscle.
40:39Speaker 3So know that. Or get smart. Get get if you're sick and you're not sleeping, that's part of it. It's that's a huge part of it. I mean, that'll make me sick if I don't sleep much. Yeah.
40:50Speaker 3Yeah. I think that's it. I mean, that's the most helpful. Cool. It's awesome. More people should do it just, I mean, even for the
40:57Speaker 3anti inflammatory
40:58Speaker 1capacity of it. Yeah. Do not fly without it. I know I said that, but trust me, get some TA-one before you fly. I would suggest taking a week up to you before you fly. Take it a week after guarantee you won't get sick.
41:11Speaker 1I take. Guaranteed. Guaranteed.
41:13Speaker 1It is guaranteed.
41:15Speaker 1Guys, we want to ask you 1 more time. We throw you, you're throwing it around and we don't even know if we want to jump in this pool, but we are constantly trying to enhance
41:23Speaker 1the
41:24Speaker 1podcast,
41:25Speaker 1give you guys what you like. We're trying to figure out if we want to do 3 a week, which is going to add a lot to our plate, but that way we do a pepatide of the week where we do 2, like we've been doing the Q and A, which you guys love so much, but we want to maybe have a doctor on every week. And so we're trying to figure out if that's something. So give us some feedback if that would be something that you guys would want and we will consider it and think
41:48Speaker 1through it. But as you can see, we're trying to enhance the experience and listening experience.
41:53Speaker 1We
41:54Speaker 1love this stuff. We try to get better at this. DORKS when it comes to this stuff. We love it, man. I love it. Yeah. So, yeah, maybe Lee next week, if not the week after, you guys you ladies are gonna love her. She's very knowledgeable. We're gonna dig into the testosterone
42:07Speaker 1hormone
42:08Speaker 1replacement for you gals. We talk a lot for men, but she's gonna be able to break it down for you Oh, yeah. Last thing on Botox, actually, I we are a friend
42:16Speaker 3in a lot of maybe girls know this, but she gets hers injected in here to calm because she's got a lot of headaches and neck pain. So she gets a Botox injected in here because it relaxes
42:26Speaker 3the nerves, etcetera.
42:28Speaker 3Also, you what you should try if you don't wanna spend a lot of money on Botox is injecting SNAP-eight
42:33Speaker 3there.
42:34Speaker 3K? Because we know SNAP-eight's SNAP-eight's tough when, like, we our facial serum, great, because you're top it works where it goes. But Right. So you don't, you know, nobody's people aren't injecting SNAP-eight in their face, but that's kind of the drug that makes Botox Botox, but it's a whole bunch cheaper and it will generally work, you know, locally, not as great as Botox or else there'd be no point to Botox, but that might be something to try
42:58Speaker 3for overactive.
42:59Speaker 1Botox, like, kind of in jawline
43:01Speaker 1because she bites at night, and it helps, like, really good. I don't remember the name of it. Yeah. TMJ.
43:06Speaker 1And it did she does, like, every, I think, either 4 months or 6 months or something, and it works. Wow. Okay. So good stuff. But that is the show.
