0:00Speaker 0Welcome back to the peptide of the week, my friends.

0:04Speaker 0It's been another week. Holy moly. Before we get started, this podcast is for informational purposes only and is not medical advice.

0:28Speaker 0Welcome my cohost

0:30Speaker 0and birthday boy, mister Will T. Haas.

0:33Speaker 1Good to be here. Good to be back

0:36Speaker 1in town into the regular weather.

0:38Speaker 0It was a hot Yeah.

0:41Speaker 1I mean, yes. I didn't wanna go outside. It's probably it was probably a 105 degrees and

0:46Speaker 0yeah. You know, it's funny, man. Every time we go to Palm Springs, like, I think that. I'm like, when we start going to the pool, I'm like, dude, this is just too damn hot here.

0:55Speaker 1It's it's too hot. Right. I don't even wanna sit. I just wanna sit in the shade and

0:59Speaker 1then go back in the room and Crazy. Take a nap.

1:04Speaker 0Well, people, today, we have Thymosin Alpha-one.

1:08Speaker 0I enjoy this 1. I they take this 1 for for numerous reasons, and we'll dig into that. But, I wanna throw this over to my cohost because he knows a lot about this 1. Thymosin Alpha-one,

1:21Speaker 0talk talk to us, Will. Tell us a little bit about this 1.

1:24Speaker 1So this is, I mean, this is a really cool peptide. It's being used and has been being used being used in different countries

1:32Speaker 1an awful lot, and I wish during COVID that more people

1:38Speaker 1knew about it.

1:40Speaker 1So to make things simple, it, Thymosin Alpha, essentially tells your body to

1:47Speaker 1tells your immune

1:48Speaker 1cells, your immune system to to to wake up. Wake up. Let's work a little bit harder, let's get a little bit stronger,

1:57Speaker 1and,

1:58Speaker 1you know, to fight off

2:00Speaker 1viral bacterial infections, etcetera.

2:03Speaker 1It's 1 interesting thing, it doesn't just hyperdrive

2:07Speaker 1your immune system, because as we know,

2:10Speaker 1our immune system can do some bad things

2:13Speaker 1when

2:14Speaker 1it starts attacking itself

2:16Speaker 1our own body and our own healthy functions, which are called autoimmune disorders.

2:21Speaker 1So it actually helps just balance out your immune system and

2:28Speaker 1do things correctly.

2:30Speaker 1It will actually increase some

2:34Speaker 1T regulatory

2:35Speaker 1cells,

2:36Speaker 1which are the cells that say, hey, slow down, slow down immune system, right? We've had enough. You know, you've killed off what you need to kill off.

2:46Speaker 1And so it really just kind of keeps that immune system balanced,

2:50Speaker 1and it's being used to

2:53Speaker 1it is not the, like, primary treatment, and we're not here to say this is gonna cure cancer, but it absolutely,

2:58Speaker 1here is a suggestion, to use it as a supplement to

3:03Speaker 1Not get sick. Any major any major

3:06Speaker 1illness.

3:08Speaker 0Yeah, so it would be used for both people, meaning

3:11Speaker 0somebody that just is trying to not get sick. Obviously, it's gonna boost your immune system. And those who are sick, I would suggest take it because it's gonna expedite you getting better. Very simple.

3:23Speaker 1Right. Absolutely.

3:25Speaker 0Yeah. So do you I'm I don't even know how are you have you taken this? Have you taken 3 months? So

3:31Speaker 1I just started to take it.

3:34Speaker 1I've taken it a little little bit in the past, but I really started to take it in higher doses

3:38Speaker 1Yeah. As well as BPC

3:41Speaker 1and TB-five hundred blend. My

3:44Speaker 1I mean, man, you know, I just turned 41.

3:47Speaker 1I played

3:49Speaker 1played college football and baseball,

3:52Speaker 1and I've I mean, I probably had at least 15 surgeries, and I beat my body up

3:59Speaker 1a lot. And I still like to lift weights and be and be active. So this

4:03Speaker 1actually reduces

4:05Speaker 1not just immune system, but it will reduce inflammation. Right? Our body is

4:10Speaker 1and so inflammation is the the cause of a lot of pain as we know. This is why we take ibuprofen and and anti inflammatories.

4:17Speaker 1So

4:19Speaker 1I started to take pretty decently high doses,

4:23Speaker 1and I noticed it.

4:25Speaker 1Joints like I don't know, man. Joints feel better. Neck feels better,

4:30Speaker 1and

4:31Speaker 1I really like it. I've given it to my mother too because she's been

4:35Speaker 1smoking cigarettes too long and has COPD.

4:38Speaker 1Wait. Right? COPD is just damaged lungs,

4:41Speaker 1damaged tissue is gets inflamed,

4:44Speaker 1and then makes it hard to breathe. And so this is actually just really reducing that inflammation.

4:50Speaker 0Does she feel like that's helped? That's a good get out. She just she just started it, so we will

4:56Speaker 1I'll report back. Yeah,

4:59Speaker 0I it's funny.

5:01Speaker 0So I've been taking it for a while. I've been taking it because I love the the immunity

5:05Speaker 0part about it. That's maybe

5:07Speaker 0a month and 0.5, give or take. And if anybody remembers, I was out in Cancun

5:12Speaker 0for my cousin's wedding.

5:14Speaker 0And when we got back,

5:16Speaker 0literally,

5:17Speaker 0every single person from that wedding party got extremely

5:22Speaker 0sick. I mean, my wife was just down for the count, then it bled onto my boys.

5:27Speaker 0I was the only 1 that didn't get sick. Now, was it Thymosin Alpha-one? I don't know, but I was the only 1 that was taking it, man, and I I was literally the entire wedding party. There was literally, like, 50 people that got sick. Something in something the food was horrible, but I

5:41Speaker 0don't know. There you go, man. I didn't get sick.

5:44Speaker 1Yeah. I don't know if I should tell this story, but that I told you the other day about that water bottle that I've been drinking out of.

5:53Speaker 1I don't know. It's kinda gross, but

5:56Speaker 1I don't know. Guys, I've been there's this metal

5:59Speaker 1water bottle that I've been drinking out of for a long time. And

6:04Speaker 1the other day, I I thought I don't know. For some reason, I looked inside of it, and literally, the whole thing is,

6:11Speaker 1like, covered in mold

6:12Speaker 1on the inside.

6:13Speaker 1So I've just been drinking mold water for probably 3 weeks, but

6:18Speaker 1I don't know. Hell, I didn't feel a damn thing. I didn't feel any worse at 1 little bit. So

6:23Speaker 1Thank god for that. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, I start and I started taking the Thymosin Alpha about 2 weeks ago.

6:30Speaker 1I guess it just shows what trying to be healthy does for you.

6:34Speaker 0Yeah, I, some of the things that it talks about,

6:38Speaker 0is it helps with people with autoimmune issues.

6:41Speaker 0Now,

6:42Speaker 0you tapped on that a little bit in regards to that, but with just the foods we eat and so much, the poor diets and just, gosh, I can go on and on and on on the why.

6:55Speaker 0So this is gonna be huge for most people in regards to autoimmune issues

7:00Speaker 0and helping with those types of things. I mean, I told you I started taking it because of the immunity, but I've been struggling with an autoimmune issue for years and it gets better, it gets worse, it gets better, it gets worse.

7:10Speaker 0And when I was doing research on certain peptides, this was 1 of the ones that I fell upon, and that's was why I started taking it. So the,

7:19Speaker 0autoimmune conditions are great, man, because there's so many people that struggle with that stuff right now. Mhmm. The food. Absolutely. And there's a few

7:27Speaker 1in, you know, in some of my research, there are a few autoimmune disorders that

7:33Speaker 1you wanna be careful with while taking this, especially if you have an autoimmune disorder that is

7:41Speaker 1really just out of control and active.

7:44Speaker 1But I can tell you, I'll tell you,

7:47Speaker 1I have a kind of a small list of

7:50Speaker 1which disorders

7:52Speaker 1you maybe should not be taking Thymosin Alpha- Absolutely. Let's let's do that. So

7:59Speaker 1really, it is telling me so

8:01Speaker 1lupus,

8:02Speaker 1multiple sclerosis,

8:04Speaker 1rheumatoid arthritis,

8:08Speaker 1those have been stated, like, let's not

8:11Speaker 1let's not take thymosin alpha with them.

8:15Speaker 1Anything you know, there's another

8:17Speaker 1obviously,

8:18Speaker 1if I know you're gonna ask me this question, but, like, who shouldn't take it? So I guess we'll just jump into it. Right? Whatever.

8:25Speaker 1Right.

8:26Speaker 1Organ transplant

8:29Speaker 1patients,

8:31Speaker 1they are often on immunosuppressive

8:34Speaker 1drugs. There are other disorders out there where your doctor's gonna put you on

8:38Speaker 1immunosuppressive drugs.

8:39Speaker 1So we don't wanna take anything that is gonna counteract

8:42Speaker 1those drugs, right,

8:44Speaker 1that's gonna better boost your immune system. Fighting each other. Right. Right. Just kind of negating each other.

8:51Speaker 1The obvious one's breastfeeding women.

8:54Speaker 1Most things breastfeeding women probably shouldn't take.

8:58Speaker 1Little little children

9:01Speaker 1and just generally if you have any allergies to peptides. But for the most part, Thymosin Alpha is, like, extremely

9:09Speaker 1safe and well tolerated.

9:11Speaker 0Yeah. Even in extremely high doses. Well, we always talk about this so easy, like, who should take it, but it's always good to talk about the people that shouldn't. And I like that you had mentioned that, the the breastfeeding

9:21Speaker 0women because

9:23Speaker 0that's good to know, man. We, I don't think we've talked about that that much.

9:27Speaker 1Other than, yeah, other than maybe the disclaimer on some things. Yeah.

9:32Speaker 1Yeah.

9:33Speaker 0Antibacteria,

9:34Speaker 0what else is this thing? Improves. Oh, this is 1 that it's actually interested in. I was kind of studying this is improves

9:41Speaker 0vaccine response.

9:43Speaker 0That's kind of cool. So for people that

9:45Speaker 0kind of during COVID that chose to take a certain substance,

9:49Speaker 0probably be good for those types of people that should be running Thymosin Alpha for sure.

9:55Speaker 1Absolutely.

9:56Speaker 1It's really just gonna help, you know, I would

9:59Speaker 1yes, I

10:01Speaker 1would suggest it with any type of treatment as a supplement

10:06Speaker 1guide to any treatment that's really gonna, that is helping

10:10Speaker 1your immune system.

10:12Speaker 1It is being actually clinically used in different countries and here a bit, right, with general immune support, chronic

10:19Speaker 1viral illnesses,

10:21Speaker 1cancer patients,

10:24Speaker 1for a range of anything that you can think of that ails us. Studied so long since the seventies.

10:30Speaker 0I wonder why it's now just popping its little head out, because they've been studying it since the seventies.

10:36Speaker 1Yeah. I don't know. I think that

10:38Speaker 1America is anal about

10:41Speaker 0I won't answer.

10:43Speaker 1Right. About drugs that don't make money. I don't know. For whatever reason why we are anal about it. I know that in, like, Russia and China,

10:49Speaker 1this is approved and being used.

10:53Speaker 0China seems like they're way ahead of the curve in regards to peptides. That's for damn sure. And a lot of things too. Yeah.

10:59Speaker 0What is, I know that this is always a fun 1. What is, what are some cool ones to run with

11:05Speaker 0Thymosin Alpha? This is a long list.

11:08Speaker 0Right. What would you say? I'll then I'll give you mine.

11:11Speaker 1Epitalon.

11:13Speaker 1So Epitalon.

11:14Speaker 1Of course. Of course.

11:15Speaker 1BPC TB 500.

11:17Speaker 0Always. Those 2 are the those 2 fit in anywhere.

11:21Speaker 1Hell, I mean, any, like, retat

11:23Speaker 1retatratide,

11:25Speaker 1that's how I say it. Right? That will help reduce inflammation overall,

11:30Speaker 1and and so will

11:32Speaker 1so will Thymosin Alpha and, you know, you'll probably end up looking good

11:37Speaker 0by looking good and feeling good. Yeah. So people with inflammation, things like that, that's gonna bring it down. Epitalon is always gonna be good 1 for immunity. I would say glutathione would be good. I don't know glutathione with it. You know, how much

11:51Speaker 0stuff through the years that you and I have done, you know, to our bodies and whatnot. Glutathione is always a good mix to Glutathione.

11:58Speaker 1To the immunity. NAD, I mean, NAD,

12:01Speaker 1b 12.

12:02Speaker 0B 12?

12:03Speaker 1That's a good 12. Throw into. Heck, b 12 can be done with, you know, anything and is always and is always a good idea. Once a week, baby. Yep. Absolutely.

12:14Speaker 1But NAD too, man. I mean, NAD is cool. What what people often don't know, like, 1 of the early applications to NAD was in is in

12:22Speaker 1in The UK was actually, like, a clinic opened up to help chronic alcoholics

12:28Speaker 1heal their liver.

12:30Speaker 1Oh, wow. And it was, like, exclusively just used for that and and was

12:35Speaker 1showing massive absolute results

12:38Speaker 1in in regenerating

12:41Speaker 1those alcoholics

12:42Speaker 1damage that they've done to their

12:45Speaker 1internal organs.

12:47Speaker 1And I think they got I think they, I think the government stepped in and said, oh, we don't like you healing people. So

12:54Speaker 1Shocker.

12:55Speaker 1Stop.

12:56Speaker 0Yeah. You've been hanging out with me too long, bro.

12:59Speaker 0I'm rubbing off on you.

13:02Speaker 0I, I got a question for you, man. This is kinda from left field, but I'm actually curious.

13:07Speaker 0If you could take 1 peptide

13:09Speaker 0there's so many awesome peptides. If you could take 1 peptide, what would it be?

13:15Speaker 1Just 1.

13:19Speaker 1HGH?

13:21Speaker 1That's always a good 1. That's a peptide.

13:25Speaker 0In longevity?

13:27Speaker 1Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that is a long game, but it does

13:32Speaker 1it does a whole ton of things to help a person.

13:36Speaker 1Men and women, frankly. Right? It is as we get older, it's gonna increase your bone density. It's gonna help you, you know, just repair,

13:43Speaker 1recover faster, and in small doses. I'm not talking about huge doses.

13:47Speaker 1Yeah.

13:48Speaker 0Repair, recover faster, help you, you know, long term with some more energy. You will, after after a good consistent couple years of use, literally, you will look

13:57Speaker 0years younger than you do.

14:00Speaker 0Yeah, that's that's for sure. I, I mean, I've been taking HGH for, I don't even know, at least 2 years. I mean, if anything done done

14:09Speaker 0I don't mean to say moderation,

14:10Speaker 0but, like, anything 2 2 IUs and under, you're chilling, man. Like, there's no problems in regards to

14:16Speaker 0you know, when you say how you start getting 8 8 IUs and stuff like that, that's where you're gonna start to have to some type of worries. But in regards to, like, HGH and longevity

14:25Speaker 0to small amounts, man, you're gonna see huge benefits. Now you don't see the benefits for a good 6 months, but you start to feel it in 6 months, man. I remember I hit that 6 month mark or something. I'm like, wow, that's my stomach's getting ripped. I feel more energy. Just feel you do feel better. That's for sure. Yep. Yeah. And it's 1 of those things, I guess, it's not what people think. People think of like, oh, you're doing ACH. You're just getting huge and and and cheating, and it's not like that at all. It doesn't it doesn't work that well.

14:56Speaker 1You almost need to do it, and then when you stop

14:59Speaker 1when you stop, you go, oh, now I know what it was doing. Okay.

15:04Speaker 1Yeah. Right? Like, it's damn near impossible to lose muscle

15:07Speaker 1while you're on it. Right? It's not there. You're not gonna you're not gonna get bigger unless you're doing massive high doses, but then side effects. So just don't do that, but you're not really gonna grow

15:18Speaker 1a bunch of grow a bunch of muscle, but it sure as hell will make you not loot not ever go catabolic.

15:24Speaker 1Alright? As you get older or stressed,

15:27Speaker 1you're not gonna lose any muscle from it.

15:31Speaker 0Yeah. Go ahead. I mean, I'll say I'll say anybody 40 should basically be on TRT and and and HGH.

15:38Speaker 1Right. I mean And that's the and I don't think anybody 40 should even attempt HGH either. Yeah. Right.

15:44Speaker 0Right? I really don't. I I noticed that it just doesn't really do much. It doesn't really do much unless unless,

15:50Speaker 1you know, your natural

15:52Speaker 1HGH is starting to decline.

15:55Speaker 1It doesn't do much for any any young young kids, so just don't even mess with it now. Yeah, right.

16:01Speaker 0Yeah, that's funny. I wouldn't have thought that you caught up to that 1 quicker. I wouldn't have said HGH, but now that you said that, that's what would be my answer to. I mean, I'm TRT and HGH, man. Those are are always my go tos, man. But, like, again, the thymosin alpha, I love it. I mean, it really does help with immunity and sickness and stuff. Again, I

16:21Speaker 0we'll never know if that was the reason I didn't get sick, but I was the only person out of 50 and I was the only person out of 50 that was taking Thymosin Alpha. So I I came home unscathed

16:30Speaker 0and they were brutal

16:32Speaker 1sickness, man, puking. What about you? I mean, what's your, what do you think? What's your favorite? Favorite? I mean, now that you said HGH, that's that would definitely be it. I mean,

16:41Speaker 0I mean, I'm definitely

16:43Speaker 0sitting on Retatrutide for right now.

16:46Speaker 0I love it. I mean, I don't I I take this Lotus and nuts just, you know, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, I'm never gonna go up and,

16:53Speaker 0I just was blown away. I would I just was blown away just by how fast

16:59Speaker 0and how amazing that worked. I felt it immediately.

17:03Speaker 0Like, and I was lean and I was pretty ripped, you know, like, so I took it mainly because I started studying it and

17:10Speaker 0was like, wow, this actually sounds freaking cool. So I wanted to be able to to, like, talk to people about it from my perspective of how I felt.

17:17Speaker 0And dude, like, I took it in 3 days later. I mean, I was pretty in pretty good shape, but I was like, like,

17:23Speaker 0ripped. And I was just like, holy shit, dude. That woah.

17:27Speaker 0So I would say for me right now, and this could change if you ask me in a couple months, but

17:32Speaker 0Retatrutide

17:33Speaker 0for me, I think it's a scientific breakthrough, man. I think it is a damn miracle.

17:38Speaker 1Well, I take

17:39Speaker 1it mostly

17:41Speaker 1for the

17:44Speaker 1neuroprotection

17:45Speaker 1and kind of nootropic effects, right, and

17:48Speaker 1clarity of thought because it really

17:51Speaker 1helps balance out your brain's blood sugar. I tend to, as you know, right, I don't know, I tend to get busy. Like, I'm a big guy, I need food.

18:00Speaker 1I'm six'four, like 2 50, and

18:03Speaker 1I don't need to lose any weight, right, I don't really need to get any leaner,

18:08Speaker 1but I sometimes just kind of work and forget to eat,

18:11Speaker 1and when I do that, my brain suffers, especially as I'm getting older, right, I start getting hangry,

18:19Speaker 1it's amazing. When I'm taking when I am taking

18:22Speaker 1Retatrutide,

18:23Speaker 1I can't say it the way you say it, but

18:26Speaker 0I don't get those I don't get that brain I don't get the brain fog. I don't get the crash. I don't get the hangry. My brain says up, up and and smart and moving, and which is the which is 1 of the noted benefits of it. I think that's where people like Will, like, that side doesn't get talked about enough because it's so focused on GLP-one and losing weight for people. But for guys like that, that's and we've discussed this, man. Like, guys like us who are our gym rats and who we we don't need to lose weight.

18:54Speaker 0Like, you have bodybuilders taking it for a reason. You have guys like us that are in shape taking it for a reason. It's not just to lose weight. Now if you're looking to lose weight, you know, you're gonna kinda wanna go up and and and eventually take more and more and more. But if you're just looking to stay lean and like Will just talked about,

19:12Speaker 1I don't know, man. My focus since I've been on road 2 tight has just been off the charts, man. Just racing. That focus. Just control portion size too. Like, you know, we all need to we all need to do that. And yeah, absolutely. I and I do too. I take a tiny dose. I take 0.5 of a milligram 3 times a week.

19:31Speaker 1But it, yep, it makes me,

19:35Speaker 1yeah, makes me just way more productive and

19:39Speaker 1keep my portions controlled, and I still have a little bit of an appetite. I just kind of I get full quicker, which is the appropriate way a person should actually be eating on a regular basis. It's small Kind of a trip. Meals.

19:51Speaker 0Yeah. Yep.

19:52Speaker 0You just get tired of eating, dude. You just start eating. You just feel like, I'm done. And that is so weird for me, man. I usually eat just gigantic

19:59Speaker 0meals and like, you never see me leave food on my plate and like, I have food on my plate often now. It's kinda weird.

20:07Speaker 0Marathon feels like, man, it is a scientific breakthrough, man. So that would be my answer. It would definitely be HGH because I love HGH for sure. TRTHGH

20:15Speaker 0and then my 3rd right now would be Retatrutide and there's a reason why so many people are are buying it and taking it. I don't even know where we're at in regards to

20:24Speaker 0the amount of people that buy it and then come back. It's definitely up there in regards to percentage wise. Yeah. Because it works. Yep.

20:31Speaker 1That's right. It is.

20:33Speaker 0Right on, man. Well, cool. That was a good 1.
