0:25Speaker 1Then a 114, and I'm so sick of being hot. My girlfriend said, oh, I can't wait to go in the hot tub. I was like, keep me away from that. I'm done being hot.
0:45Speaker 0I know. I was supposed to be there. I was supposed to be there. I had to jump ship due to my damn back, but I was with you dudes in thought. You look like you had a good time. And so you look like you ate some good food, so that's always good. We did. Steak 44.
0:59Speaker 1Shout out to them. Like, damn. That place is good. Not only and it's crazy how, like, cool their food was really, really good. It was
1:08Speaker 1very oftentimes, times, I go to these steakhouses and pay, you know, $80 a steak and be like, I could do that at home,
1:28Speaker 1they just they just caught every single person just stops. It goes, hey, what's up? Like, they know you. And you kinda walk around like, yeah.
1:44Speaker 0who's going in and going into restaurants and he's doing updates to all the staff and teaching them how to do that stuff. No problem. So- yeah. He's probably been there, but man, it's crazy. It's been a week, man. I swear to God, this is just crazy. We were just tied. It just seems like we just did a podcast and here we are again, man, but this is gonna be a good 1. I, you know, all of them are good ones, but we're gonna talk about Semax today, which it wasn't last time, I think it was 2 times ago that we talked about Selank.
2:26Speaker 0So tell us a little bit about it from your viewpoint on 1 of the some of the things of the benefits and what do you like about it? All right, so Semax
2:40Speaker 1pairs, right? As this has been used and invented, both of them in Russia, and been used for a long time.
2:49Speaker 1is more for just calming, if we're gonna generalize these things. Selank is for calming and Semax is for energy,
2:58Speaker 1but brain energy, you know, it's not like caffeine, it's not gonna get your heart going, it's not gonna do anything physical
4:18Speaker 1or heck, you know, people taking low dose of, like, Cialis for daily use, not for sexual function, but, I mean, that is it is just increasing blood flow throughout your whole body. Okay? When we have more blood, blood is God's way of healing us.
4:32Speaker 1And any blood carries nutrients, man. The more oxygen in your blood, the better, but the more blood you have flowing around everywhere,
4:45Speaker 1Same thing, and to back that up, right, when we eat food and you go to sleep, right, everybody eats lunch and you get tired, well, all the brain leaves your,
5:13Speaker 0not not get too stressed out because all bad things happen when our body and our brain gets stressed out and that translates into our body. Right? Cortisol goes up. People run these days. I mean, shit, think about it. Think everybody's in a hurry. Everybody's just just gotta go, gotta go, gotta go, gotta get it now, gotta get it now. And it's like we run so just
5:33Speaker 0our brains. So this is 1 of the ones that, jeez, I think anybody can thrive on it just because of the brain function. I mean, it fires on all cylinders. I mean, it has a little bit of the
5:42Speaker 0the calming effect of the Selank has, a tiny bit, little bit. You know, Selank definitely has more of the focus
6:04Speaker 0use their brains thinking, Gosh, doctors in an ER would probably just thrive on this because it just would really, just really help that brain function. Absolutely. And without making you
6:18Speaker 1People take Adderall, people take, you know, caffeine, hell, right? That is going to, that's wake you up a little bit, make you a bit sharper, but for those who need to do like small, acute, physical,
6:38Speaker 0I mean, that's a good way to even look at it to compare it to like an Adderall or something like that, which is obviously a narcotic that, gosh, it's such a popular,
6:52Speaker 0But that's a it's a good good comparison because this has a lot of those similarities that have that razor focus. Absolutely.
7:16Speaker 0gosh, we're just all tired, man. We run at Mach 90. We're we're scrolling through our phones like psychopaths. Why not everything? Our brain's just functioning functioning.
7:29Speaker 1Calm it down and in the heat of right, in the heat of actual stress and overstimulation,
7:43Speaker 1yeah, it'll speed you up to get what's needed done, but when when the things get overwhelming,
8:09Speaker 0which is kind of surprising because of just how just what it does in the brain function and it helps with memory loss and it helps with brain you know what I mean? I'm surprised it's not a it's 1 of not more popular of a peptide. Yeah, I don't know. Think that people are again,
8:28Speaker 1To their bodies and not so much brains. More than now. Yeah. You know, I think if you ask anybody who's in Russia who's into peptides, they will say that this is a
8:38Speaker 1huge 1. This and Selank are huge. Yeah. They've been using this. Doctors have been using this for a long time,
8:53Speaker 1nootropic peptides, I think it is 1 of the more popular ones. Right. I mean, I 1st heard this
9:02Speaker 1from my friend who's who would always he's like, yo, my neighbor told me he just started taking Semax and Selank, and he said it's amazing. His whole ill he is he's got tons of energy and yet he can
9:14Speaker 1fall asleep and be calm when he wants. Yeah. And just freaking loves it. So I started getting it and trying it. And this was maybe,
9:27Speaker 1But it works. And like every other peptide, like, it's not gonna work. It's not like Adderall. You don't just get to
9:37Speaker 1whooping it. It works immediately. Like, do this stuff. Be consistent with it. Right? Let it let it work. Give it a couple weeks for it to actually kind of kick in, and then and then stay consistent. You do wanna take
9:56Speaker 0for a little while. K. Let's talk about that then. So let's let's sit on that because that's kinda cool. So, like, break in regards to what? So run it for like a month on and then a week off. Okay. Month on, week off. Month on, week off. Just kinda let your body
10:09Speaker 1Let it not not even heal because it's no not going through, like, a withdrawal or a letdown, but
10:17Speaker 0I don't know. It'll work sometimes if you get a week off. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Sticking it. I was reading about it to where they've been using it for people that have been dealing with long COVID just because some of the brain fog that they've been dealing with. So that's kind of interesting.
10:34Speaker 0Know? Yeah. Helping people with that type of stuff because there's some some people struggle with that for sure. Yeah, yeah, for sure. That
11:24Speaker 0you know, what they accomplish, you know, brain function and things like that. Would you would you suggest in your experience to run 1 at a time? Do you think they would be better
11:37Speaker 11, 2, 3 of those that have similar? You know what I mean? That's definitely gonna get a lot. So I definitely think that when you're doing things for the 1st time, like, I wanna know you again, this is all an experiment on each of our bodies. Right? And different things work different in different people's,
11:59Speaker 1do 4 of them at the same time. Then you go, hey, that's awesome, or or man, I feel know what's working. What do you how do you replicate that? Right? How do you know what made you feel good? How do you know what what made you feel bad? So I would absolutely take things individually
12:17Speaker 1Each once, feel the difference. Then, and obviously according to the specific peptides,
12:26Speaker 1with each other. I don't think it's probably useful to take 4 nootropics at the same time. Right,
12:32Speaker 1a little bit too much. I do know that people do take Selank and Semax together, right, and they which
12:41Speaker 1hey, one's bringing you up, one's bringing you down. Well, what the heck? Aren't we just gonna be in the middle of be where where where I started? Yeah. Right. But it doesn't really it doesn't actually work like that. You kind of you get the benefit up here and you get to call me. So the 2 is is our classic and have been stacked and will will work well together.
12:59Speaker 1But as people are figuring it out, I would say go 1 at a time. That's with everything. Well Yeah. For sure.
13:04Speaker 0Yeah. I, I what would you say would be some of the people that would thrive on it? I mean, that's such an easy question in my opinion, but people still need to know, like, who would be some of the people I think that would would want need to take it, should be taking it? What would you recommend?
13:20Speaker 1Know, everybody who is not happy with their mood, I guess, you know, if anybody who is looking for some more energy,
13:35Speaker 1a long day ahead of you and a whole lot of work to do, right, or you live your life like that,
13:44Speaker 1even people with depression, right? Like, this is going to increase your dopamine, right? Most depression,
13:53Speaker 1when I have gone through times in my life and been depressed, right, that comes along with
14:07Speaker 1is a perfect thing to try to get you to pop out of that, right? And it's all about momentum with the pressure, right? With anything, right? You start getting up and complete 1 task. Well, hey, now that 2nd task feels a little bit better and it's easier to complete. Now the 3rd one's even better, and then before you know it, you're on a roll. Right. Right. So if you need a little something to kick you in the pants.
14:33Speaker 0because as you know, you know and a lot of people know that watch my stuff, you know, I've been dealing with some back problems that have been,
14:39Speaker 0man, it's just been eating me up. Anybody that has felt sciatic pain, it's not even necessarily the pain, it's a constant pain that it doesn't ever let you have a 2nd break and it just starts to wear you down. And man,
14:50Speaker 0just this morning, dude, I woke up and just have been battling this mental fatigue of just freaking tired of this freaking pain. You know what I mean? And I, you know, I knew I had to rally and
15:03Speaker 0I took some Semax. Did it help? I don't know. You know, I'm pretty good at rallying and stepping up to the plate when I need to, but I did take it because it it is what it's for. So
15:17Speaker 1Yes. I have. And and long term memory. Right? I think you told me you started doing this because your memory was fading. Horrible. And,
15:25Speaker 1well, that happens as we get older, but you and I have been sober for a long time. There's a reason we're sober because
15:41Speaker 0Right. I forget basic words. My wife will be all, do remember talking about that? And I'll be like, just to save face, I'd be like, yeah, I don't think.
16:11Speaker 0Yeah. That's a great idea. Like, so how I would answer is that is just anybody that runs on a high stress level of, you know, I think like an
16:25Speaker 0anybody that just has to make quick decisions, I think, would thrive on Semax. Yep. Yeah. It's kind of
16:46Speaker 0Oh, what the heck were you just talking about? Those do not know have not tried Monafinil, man. You should try it. It's great. Yeah. Yeah.
16:56Speaker 0Is definitely a good 1 as well. How about people that probably shouldn't take it? Anybody in particular that you would
17:17Speaker 1I would probably stay away. Yeah. Not necessarily it's gonna give you anxiety, but if you're already prone to anxiety,
17:23Speaker 1just like all of these people, if you're listening and you're prone to anxiety, my guess is you don't drink a whole bunch of coffee. Yeah. And if you do, maybe you should stop that and your anxiety might go away.
17:41Speaker 0if you're 1 of those people that just don't do well with that type of stuff, brain firing and you're not gonna you think that that would like do something negative to where you're not gonna be able to sleep, blah, blah, blah. I mean, it's not like, like we said, it's not like an Adderall where it's gonna keep you up, but some people just, man, their brains just can't shut down. So if you're 1 of those people, probably best just to stay away from it. There's a lot of other peptides that might just be better. Right. Selank, then you should take Selank. For sure. There's there's your answer. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. For sure. What about, some dosages? What would you say? I
18:12Speaker 1there is a difference, I guess, should be stated. There are you can you can buy n acetyl
18:30Speaker 1dosages, we'll call them the same, but the N acetyl is gonna work a little bit better, it's gonna help, it's gonna cross your blood brain barrier
18:42Speaker 1and the effects, and because it's more stable in your bloodstream, it lasts a bit longer. So 6 to 8 hours,
19:18Speaker 1So if you have a 10 mg bottle, I would advise you add 2 mls of water, okay, 2 full hundred unit insulin syringes and then inject
19:39Speaker 1This is also being sold as a nasal spray, right? I think you'll see a lot of it out there as a nasal spray.
19:47Speaker 1It actually is better subcutaneous, but actually it's gonna work a bit better subcutaneous.
19:51Speaker 1Just people are scared of needles and that's why there is such a and it works, and it does, and it works intranasally.
20:30Speaker 0like I said, I didn't think this is 1 of the most popular ones, at least from my viewpoint. I didn't realize that you had heard about that 8 years ago. Wow, that's rad, man. That's been a long time. So it's been around for a long time. But man, for anybody listening that has not tried it, I have been trying it. I love it. You know, 1 of my biggest problems as Will had said is just my memory is just such it's atrocious, man. So I started taking it just for that brain function, man. And I feel it. I feel it. I feel like it's helped quite a bit with clarity of thought and some of my memory loss. I mean, some of that stuff are just from, you know, abusing my brain when I was younger, and that is what it is. But
21:17Speaker 1we it's gonna take a little bit of time, everybody out there, to rebuild some of these neurotransmitters and they finally and they do, we do realize that you can rebuild neurotransmitters
21:30Speaker 1they're gone. But our brain will rebuild and it's just gonna take a while. So, you know, be consistent. Don't make snap judgments after 1 week that
21:42Speaker 1Give it a healthy try. Right? But stay again, like, 4 months. Right? Go give me a month on, week off,
21:51Speaker 0then make a decision on how this how well this thing work for you. Yeah, like give it a fair shake and like Will said, I think that's such a high focus because we talk about often about compounding
22:06Speaker 0but this would be 1 that we would suggest, both of us would suggest doing it by itself at 1st so that you make sure this is doing what you think that it's doing. Give it its fair shake. Yeah. To make sure that that's kind of where where it's thriving. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, no doubt.
22:27Speaker 0We've been trying to kinda boil down the day because we're both pretty darn busy, but so what we're gonna try to do is stick to
22:35Speaker 0recording that on Friday and probably releasing it because it needs to be edited, blah blah blah, maybe Saturday.
22:42Speaker 0So that's generally what we're gonna try at 1st. So we will be recording the 1st Q and A this week. So I will be putting out on my Instagram channels and all YouTube, all the channels to where you will be able to ask questions to us,
22:57Speaker 0and we will go through those questions and answer them 1 x 1 and give you a good 30, 45 minutes of going through the questions that you wanna hear about.
23:06Speaker 0Yeah. Cool. I'm excited about that. Yeah. I think it's gonna be pretty cool, man. I'm excited about it as well. So, again, we'll be recording that 1st 1 on Friday, so be getting those questions in. I'll be putting that out sometime today on my social
23:18Speaker 0media channels, and, you should be dropping the 1st 1 on Saturday. So look out for that.
23:26Speaker 0my brother. Well, cool, man. We got a lot to do. So, I will see you soon, and, we'll catch you guys next week.
