This is the q and a 0:06 Speaker 0: division. 0:08 Speaker 0: I got I am your host, JD Denham. I got my cohost, William T. Haas, across the way. We have some good questions, 0:17 Speaker 0: and we're gonna crack them out quickly because we have a busy day ahead of us. But Will, how you doing, buddy? I'm doing well, man. 0:24 Speaker 1: It's Friday. 0:25 Speaker 1: Life's always better on a Friday. Oh, it is better. 0:30 Speaker 1: Still sad about my dog who's in imminent death, 0:35 Speaker 1: and he's sitting right next to me. He just keeps inching closer trying to get run over by my chair. 0:40 Speaker 0: Poor guy. We always have this dog as long as I've even known him, and he's not doing well. So 0:46 Speaker 1: he's a lot of people out there. Give him your thoughts because his his dog Oscar is 1 of the last legs, so to speak. Yeah. He had a seizure on Sunday night, and so I brought him in. Even last week, we'll tell before that, he was running around chasing squirrels, 1:02 Speaker 1: killing things like he normally does, having a blast, and then he had a seizure Sunday night, and I brought him in. 1:07 Speaker 1: They did X rays, and, like, he is full of 1:10 Speaker 1: cancerous tumors from his stomach, inside of his lungs, and in his brain. And 1:16 Speaker 1: so, yeah. 1:17 Speaker 1: Put these things in perspective very quickly. Right? Yeah. Yeah. What's important? 1:23 Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. So now he comes with me all the time because I don't want him to die alone or have a seizure alone. We love him in the office, man. He's a good dog. Yeah. 1:34 Speaker 0: So I'll get cracking on this, brother. I'm gonna start us off. I like some of the I like that we're getting some testosterone replacement ones too. I like those types of questions. So let's start off with that. Was gonna say, 1st question is, is it okay to inject testosterone siphonate 1:48 Speaker 0: subcutaneously 1:49 Speaker 0: instead of intramuscular? 1:51 Speaker 0: So I like this 1 because I've done it. I've been on testosterone replacement somewhere around 10 years, so I've done it all. I've done it where I've done it microdosing 2:00 Speaker 0: daily. I've done it where I've done it once a week. I've done it 2:03 Speaker 0: sub q 2:05 Speaker 0: not at all. 2:08 Speaker 0: The way I would answer that is very simple. It's a matter of however you want to do it, and I would imagine if you stay in it, on it in perpetuity like I will, you're going to need to change it around a little bit because 2:19 Speaker 0: you get sick of kind of doing it in the top part of your butt, 2:22 Speaker 0: shoulder, and you just start to change. 2:25 Speaker 0: You could do it either way. My testosterone 2:28 Speaker 0: doctor, so you all know, told me that he thinks I should do it Sub Q. I did that for a while, but I didn't really like injecting the oil into my stomach personally, so I stopped quickly. 2:39 Speaker 0: But you can. 2:41 Speaker 1: Yep. I have done that. I've done it. I mean, obviously, look, you your the oil doesn't 2:47 Speaker 1: soak in 2:49 Speaker 1: like it does into your muscles. So Right. If you're gonna do it, obviously, you shouldn't be doing, like, a like, a twice a twice a week, you know, a lot because it's Yeah. You want the week. Big old bulge in there. So I would do it every day, sub q, and just a smaller amount. 3:07 Speaker 1: And in I mean, on paper, it's actually supposed to work a little bit better and make you aromatize a little bit less. 3:15 Speaker 1: And so, 3:16 Speaker 1: yeah, dude, personal. 3:18 Speaker 1: It'll work. You can do it. 3:21 Speaker 1: Switch it up. Yep. Alright. Next 1. What's the best for muscle 3:25 Speaker 1: and tendon repair, 3:27 Speaker 1: fat burn, and muscle growth? 3:30 Speaker 1: Keep well, I should thanks in advance. Your videos are inspiring. Keep knocking it out, brother. That's for you, I think. 3:38 Speaker 1: That's acceptable. So 3:40 Speaker 1: muscle and tendon repair. So tendon and ligament repair, 3:45 Speaker 1: BPC 1 5 7. Period. That's 3:48 Speaker 1: your best thing for that for sure. Spot in I spot inject it. It works 3:54 Speaker 1: best that way. 3:57 Speaker 1: Muscle repair, you know, I I don't know. I prefer to use the the TB 500 plus 4:02 Speaker 1: BPC-one 4:03 Speaker 1: 5 7. TB 500 is gonna help with the overall recovery as well. Muscle repair, you know, any of the HGH secretagogues 4:11 Speaker 1: are going to help your muscles repair 4:14 Speaker 1: faster. 4:15 Speaker 1: And and 4:17 Speaker 1: which is muscle repair is muscle growth. Right? We're in the gym. We work out. We're not building muscle in the gym. You're tearing muscle down and causing thousands of small little micro tears. 4:27 Speaker 1: Then you eat protein and you rest, 4:29 Speaker 1: and our muscles always grow back bigger and stronger than they were before because they are they said, damn, You put me through this too much trauma that I could not handle. 4:39 Speaker 1: I better prepare for the next time you do that by getting bigger and stronger. 4:43 Speaker 1: And the 4:45 Speaker 1: base based on how fast they recover, 4:47 Speaker 1: right, allows you to work them out sooner 4:51 Speaker 1: and harder and break them down, then they'll build back more. Right? This is the beauty of basically of of testosterone 4:57 Speaker 1: is we're growing 24 7 instead of mostly just at night. Your muscles get to repair constantly so you can work them out harder and more frequently, and therefore more growth. 5:09 Speaker 0: And like you said, 1 of the things that has worked for me over time is I like human growth hormone daily on starting it off in the morning. I've been taking it for a very long time. 5:19 Speaker 0: And I think that having that, having the human growth hormone, you take it for a long time. It takes a while before it really even starts to really shine. 5:27 Speaker 0: But for older guys over 40, I think the HGH is important, and then adding a secretagogue 5:33 Speaker 0: at night. There's so many different I would imagine, 5:36 Speaker 0: and what I do is I bounce around quite a bit. Tesamorelin 5:40 Speaker 0: is my favorite out of them, but there's so many of them, and adding 5:44 Speaker 0: both would be great if you're older, 5:48 Speaker 0: would be my answer on that. They work out well. Alright. 5:52 Speaker 0: Is it possible to take mixtures of different peptides without having to go on test also? 5:59 Speaker 0: If test is recommended, 6:01 Speaker 0: can I go with Enclomiphene 6:03 Speaker 0: and plus peptides? Oh, Will, this is a good 1 for you. 6:07 Speaker 1: Yes. 6:09 Speaker 1: Well, there is no 6:12 Speaker 1: so 1st of all, like testosterone too. Testosterone does so many good things for us. It is it is like the golden elixir. Right? There is nothing that 6:20 Speaker 1: really can 6:22 Speaker 1: there's no peptide 6:24 Speaker 1: in the plus that 6:26 Speaker 1: can mimic 6:28 Speaker 1: everything that testosterone does for us. 6:30 Speaker 1: And clomiphene, though, is actually really showing, and I've seen it work with people and seeing their tests. It's really helping boost a person's natural testosterone. So and then that, yes, then you get all the benefits of testosterone because it's actually boosting your actual testosterone. 6:47 Speaker 1: So in clomiphene, yes, 6:49 Speaker 1: plus peptides, 6:50 Speaker 1: there are some different peptides that do different specific things that can help in some of the realms that testosterone helps, 6:58 Speaker 1: but 6:59 Speaker 1: not all of the realms. You know, any of the HGH secretagogues 7:03 Speaker 1: can help 7:04 Speaker 1: repair muscles a little bit faster, 7:08 Speaker 1: you know, help with your bone 7:10 Speaker 1: recalcification 7:11 Speaker 1: and strength. 7:15 Speaker 1: There's nothing 7:16 Speaker 1: 1 41 7:18 Speaker 1: can increase libido, but that's that's just like after you use it. Whereas 7:23 Speaker 1: testosterone, 7:24 Speaker 1: it's kind of all the time. Right? Yeah. You just also, I just I don't know. There's nothing that really mimics the 7:32 Speaker 1: just better 7:33 Speaker 1: energy all day and 7:37 Speaker 1: virility all the time 7:39 Speaker 1: that testosterone 7:40 Speaker 1: can 7:41 Speaker 1: give you. Yeah. So, 7:44 Speaker 0: yeah. Enclomiphene, cool. Good. Can work. Yeah. Enclomiphene can work. I mean, some stuff I've read about it, it does increase the testosterone, but you don't get all the benefits, meaning some of the things I've read about it in particular that it increased the testosterone. 7:57 Speaker 0: But some of the men that that happened and they didn't feel the vigor, they didn't feel the sex drive increase, some of the things that come along with testosterone replacement. Now, I've never done it that route, so I can't give you my experience. I wish I could. I've just read about it. 8:11 Speaker 0: My question is always, 8:13 Speaker 0: and it's always about age and lifestyle and some, I guess, concerns people have about testosterone replacement. 8:20 Speaker 0: I probably can answer this for Will myself. 8:23 Speaker 0: Why not just do TRT? I mean, I don't know what the if you really want the true benefits of testosterone, 8:28 Speaker 0: just take testosterone, man. Yeah. You know? That's my take. 8:32 Speaker 0: Good. You're up. You wanna jump? Yeah. 8:36 Speaker 1: Is there any peptides that help with perimenopause, 8:40 Speaker 1: which is premenopause 8:43 Speaker 1: for women? Obviously, I'm not the most educated on 8:46 Speaker 1: that, but I did some did some 8:50 Speaker 1: quick research and know a little bit. Like, when you're going into menopause, 8:54 Speaker 1: right, I have seen let's just say this. I have several, several friends, mothers 9:01 Speaker 1: who are in premenopausal or menopause, and their doctors are giving them low doses of testosterone. 9:06 Speaker 1: Very common though. Very, very common. It is common for younger Yeah. 9:11 Speaker 1: They're loving it. So I feel like that's the number 1 answer. Number 2, I guess 1 of the symptoms of this is kind of cognitive decline, 9:19 Speaker 1: muscle wasting, 9:21 Speaker 1: bone 9:22 Speaker 1: becoming less dense, right, losing a bit of bone. 9:25 Speaker 1: And those all can be healed with so an HGH secretagogue 9:29 Speaker 1: and actually, 9:31 Speaker 1: Sermorelin seems to be 1 that doctors have used 9:34 Speaker 1: specifically 9:35 Speaker 1: for this in the past. And 9:38 Speaker 1: I guess, 9:40 Speaker 1: libido, libido 9:42 Speaker 1: reduced libido is another negative symptom of perimenopause, 9:46 Speaker 1: and Sermorelin seems to 9:48 Speaker 1: help with all of those. 9:51 Speaker 1: Semax and Selank help with the cognitive decline. Alright, those are all nootropics. Kisspeptin 9:57 Speaker 1: as well for a little bit of a sexual health and PT-one hundred 41. 10:02 Speaker 1: Definitely, 10:03 Speaker 1: if someone is feeling less 10:05 Speaker 1: horny, that will work. 10:07 Speaker 1: Will. Men and women. Right. 10:10 Speaker 0: So that's the answer to peptides, or you could just kind of cut some chase and do what so many women are doing that we talk to because a lot of them come into our office and are taking small doses of testosterone 10:21 Speaker 0: replacement. We had a testosterone replacement doctor in our office the other day, and I was talking to him about the women in particular and his dosages. What did he say? 10:31 Speaker 0: 7, 8 units? 10:33 Speaker 0: Yeah, on an insulin source. Right around there. I was curious about it because I've 10:37 Speaker 0: read different things, 10:38 Speaker 0: so that's kind of where he starts them. He said he went up to I'm trying to remember the high dosage that he even brought 10:44 Speaker 0: some women up to, but just like anything, it's a science project. 10:49 Speaker 0: But if you want to kind of get to the jugular and probably fix that a little bit quicker, just like the man, testosterone replacement is what a lot of women are doing. But a tiny dose, ladies, like 11:01 Speaker 0: little, little, little, little, little. On insulin strands, like, right right above the right above the 5, under the 10. And it starts 11:08 Speaker 1: and and start start with the tiny bit and and then slowly increase. You know? I would also think of maybe a faster ester would you know, nobody likes to nobody likes to pin a lot, but the good thing about a fast ester like testosterone propionate, 11:23 Speaker 1: it's in you and out of you. Okay? In case you're getting those side effects that you don't want, at least they're not lingering around. They're out. 11:31 Speaker 1: And so maybe an every other day thing with test prop, 11:34 Speaker 1: most doctors, people are probably giving test sipinate because you have to inject less than that because that's what sells. But if you ask me, I would probably, if I'm giving it to my loved 1, probably start with test prop. Let's see how they react because that's in and out, and you can if there's a mistake, 11:51 Speaker 1: it can be gone. 11:52 Speaker 0: Boom. 11:53 Speaker 1: K. 11:56 Speaker 1: I'll read it. Why not? Just started 11:59 Speaker 1: taking glow blend for tendonitis in my elbows. 12:02 Speaker 1: 10 mgs, 10 mgs, and 40 mgs 12:05 Speaker 1: reconstituted 12:06 Speaker 1: it with 2 mils to get 300 micrograms on the peptide calculator. It says the dosage of 0.01 12:15 Speaker 1: m l. 12:16 Speaker 1: Is 12:18 Speaker 1: this right? 12:21 Speaker 1: Seems like almost nothing. Thanks for all your information. Super informative. 12:26 Speaker 1: 0.01 12:28 Speaker 1: ml. We might have to get back to that while I look at some math, but 12:32 Speaker 1: that is very little. 12:34 Speaker 1: So on an insulin syringe, a u 100, which means there's 100 units and it's 1 ml. 12:41 Speaker 1: K. 12:43 Speaker 1: There's it breaks it down to 10, 20, 30, all the way up to a 100. Right? That's 1 mill. So 10 units, it's about that much, 12:50 Speaker 1: would be 0.1, 12:52 Speaker 1: k, of a mill. 0.01 12:56 Speaker 1: would be nothing, 12:58 Speaker 0: basically. Yeah. So I'm looking at our product on it, 10 units. So he I don't know if, like, what he's where he's finding that 0.01. He's probably reading it wrong. It's but it's 10 units. Yeah. Yeah. I think that so the the correct answer should be 0.1, not 0.01. Yeah. 0.1 to 0.2 was what we've we've kinda ran. I I mean, so there you go. That's that's not right to answer your question. Yep. It's not 0.0 1.1, 13:21 Speaker 1: which aka is 10 units 13:25 Speaker 1: 1 insulin insulin syringe. 13:27 Speaker 0: Cool. Bada boom. Alright. Go ahead, JD. And I'm looking for peptide stacks that produce energy. I'm trying to stay away from the preworkouts, 13:35 Speaker 0: beautiful, 13:35 Speaker 0: since I'm failing to get my 7 hours of sleep. You and me both, brother. I'm a blue collar guy that day 13:43 Speaker 0: begins at 04:15, workday ends at 04:30PM, 13:46 Speaker 0: won't get to the gym till 05:30 or 6, 13:49 Speaker 0: get out of the gym at 08:30 to 9, geez, off to bed by 10:30. No time to unwind. I'm thinking of investing in NAD, 13:57 Speaker 0: MOTS- C, and Tesamorelin. 14:00 Speaker 0: I really haven't heard, and you mentioned that stack combo on your show, but you guys are seasoned lab rats. 14:05 Speaker 0: So I guess you have tried it all. I mean, I like that stack. I would have definitely, as I was reading that, thinking of NAD and MOTS-3C. Those are both gonna give you some cellular energy. Mhmm. 14:15 Speaker 0: Tesamorelin's 14:16 Speaker 0: not gonna be really anything for energy. I'm a huge fan of it. 14:20 Speaker 0: NAD and MOTS c would answer your question. 14:23 Speaker 0: I like adding the Tesamorelin into it because it's just a great 14:27 Speaker 0: peptide, but it's not gonna give you really necessarily any energy, in my opinion. 14:31 Speaker 0: The 1st 2 will, NAD and MOTS c, what do think, Will? Absolutely. 14:35 Speaker 1: Like, it's great. That's a great idea. I would maybe try Semax 14:38 Speaker 1: also. 14:39 Speaker 1: Semax is a new topic that will give you more mental energy. Mhmm. So those ones, those others and and even shoot. Even, like, SLU-3three 14:49 Speaker 1: 32. 14:52 Speaker 1: Yeah. But that's a great great stack and made me think of those other 2 as well. 14:58 Speaker 1: Alright. 14:59 Speaker 1: My 47 15:01 Speaker 1: year old mother has been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, 15:05 Speaker 1: says that her liver enzymes are also 15:08 Speaker 1: She really wants to try peptides, and I want to buy her a stack. She definitely wants to try BPC-one hundred 57. 15:14 Speaker 1: What else could she add? So I would also in I would add KPV. 15:19 Speaker 1: Right? That's just really gonna help her gut health. 15:23 Speaker 1: A lot of 15:25 Speaker 1: other issues arise from that and especially as we get older. 15:30 Speaker 1: For your liver glutathione, 15:31 Speaker 1: glutathione is for all your internal organs 15:34 Speaker 1: and is a great vitamin. That's easy. That's just the intramuscular injection. And NAD. 15:42 Speaker 1: NAD so NAD was 1st 15:44 Speaker 1: used in The UK. 15:46 Speaker 1: I've 15:47 Speaker 1: in a clinic literally working with alcoholics 15:51 Speaker 1: who have 15:52 Speaker 1: severely damaged their livers. 15:55 Speaker 1: It was bringing people back, right, who were jaundiced eyes and liver failure, and they were using NAD as like their primary treatment. Now, that clinic got shut down. I think that's the apparent that's the end of it because 16:09 Speaker 1: the it was not approved for that use, and 16:12 Speaker 1: they were probably healing people too much, and the powers to be didn't like that. 16:18 Speaker 1: But I 16:20 Speaker 1: would if it were my mother, 16:22 Speaker 1: that's what I would do. 16:24 Speaker 1: It's a good 1. There's there's yeah. And the fibromyalgia, hell yeah. The beep. I would maybe, you know, even if you're gonna do BPC, 16:31 Speaker 1: might as well do t p TB 500 also. 16:35 Speaker 1: That also kinda help with pain of the fibromyalgia, which is oversensitive nerves. 16:40 Speaker 1: It ain't gonna hurt at all. TB 500 is great, and it'll help reduce inflammation. Thymosin Alpha is another awesome 1, which is- Oh, definitely a shit with that. Of reducing 16:49 Speaker 1: inflammation and increasing immune system. Boom. KPV is gonna boost that immune system also. But 16:57 Speaker 0: Yeah, so just to run down to what he said, because that was a great answer. You got glutathione, 17:01 Speaker 0: thymosin Alpha-one, boom, KPV, 17:03 Speaker 0: and then you can add in a BPC-157, 17:06 Speaker 0: the TB-five hundred, so those are all great. And NAD. 17:09 Speaker 0: NAD. Yep. Great. That's a great so there you go. Research those. Yeah. 17:13 Speaker 0: Research. Hi there, my name is Aaron. I'm 41. I'm in February I'm 41 in February, 17:19 Speaker 0: and it's my and I'm about 17:21 Speaker 0: about to start TRT. 17:23 Speaker 0: My blood's done. My free test is only $3.60. I think that's your full test, just so you know. I'm 17:29 Speaker 0: just wanting to know rough dosage, 17:33 Speaker 0: how many times a week, etcetera, and if I can just stay on it or have to cycle it. Also, I've tried tests before and was sensitive to gyno. I was wondering 17:43 Speaker 0: if even low dosages, I'm still be prone to it, 17:47 Speaker 0: and if so, measures 17:49 Speaker 0: to take control while I'm on TRT. I also have been suggesting to take Kisspeptin-ten 17:54 Speaker 0: instead of TRT 17:56 Speaker 0: as it increases test levels but doesn't promote muscle mass, etcetera, 18:01 Speaker 0: if it's even worth it, or just go straight to testosterone kind of guards. I mean, 18:06 Speaker 0: I'm gynoprone. 18:07 Speaker 0: I have always been gynoprone. It sucks. Will knows. I've worked actually long before he and I started working together. 18:13 Speaker 0: He and I have talked through different protocols from me for years. Gosh, man, I used to be horrible. 18:19 Speaker 0: I could just take a small amount of testosterone and I would get gyno. Was crazy. Now that's tapered down. 18:26 Speaker 0: So to answer your question, if you're gyno prone, you're going to just have to try to kind of figure out what works for you. It's going to take a little time. 18:34 Speaker 0: In regards to the testosterone, 18:37 Speaker 0: and if you're thinking Kisspeptin as well, I would not suggest that. I ran those 2 together and definitely was getting some gyno. 18:44 Speaker 0: So I would say, 18:46 Speaker 0: here's the thing, man. The reason we know some of this stuff is because we tried it all. I've tried a lot of different things, 18:52 Speaker 0: and everybody is a science project, 18:55 Speaker 0: and React's very different, you know? So you're going to need to kind of find your sweet spot on all of this. I would say try to do TRT for 3 months, 19:05 Speaker 0: come off on a PCT and maybe run the Kisspeptin for 3 months, 19:09 Speaker 0: and you can see how you feel and how you do. 19:12 Speaker 0: That would be my answer, 19:14 Speaker 0: just so everybody knows that's listening. 19:17 Speaker 0: A lot of people think once you start TRT, you can't stop TRT. I don't even have a clue where that came from. You definitely, absolutely can. Now, you do not need Please don't ever start it and abruptly 19:29 Speaker 0: stop testosterone 19:30 Speaker 0: because you have no testosterone and you will feel like absolute 19:34 Speaker 0: dog shit. You need to have a PCT, 19:37 Speaker 0: taking certain things that are going to bring your testosterone levels back up. But to answer that too, so everybody knows, you can come off testosterone replacement 19:45 Speaker 1: done properly. Yeah. And I think you you nailed it. Just to be clear, right, 3 60, 19:51 Speaker 1: which is usually measured in a blood test in nanograms per deciliters, 19:55 Speaker 1: has to be your total testosterone 19:57 Speaker 1: Yeah. And not your free testosterone. 20:00 Speaker 1: Yep. Because that's way too high of a free testosterone Yeah. Score. 20:05 Speaker 1: But 20:06 Speaker 1: that's a super low total testosterone 20:10 Speaker 0: You definitely need to be on testosterone. 20:12 Speaker 1: Man. You will feel so much better. And what he didn't mention is like, bro, this is what AIs are made for. Right? This is what Aromasin, 20:20 Speaker 1: it's a little bit stronger. 20:22 Speaker 1: And anastrozole 20:23 Speaker 1: aka Arimidex. 20:24 Speaker 1: This is what they are for. Like, everybody who is on testosterone, 20:29 Speaker 1: everybody 20:30 Speaker 1: converts to estrogen. Okay? Some people like JD convert 20:35 Speaker 1: faster and higher, and 20:38 Speaker 1: and therefore, he should be taking more of his 20:41 Speaker 1: aromatase inhibitor. But if you haven't tried that, maybe you have and maybe this is all like I know JD's tried it and it still doesn't really 20:49 Speaker 1: matter. He's still prone to it, but if you haven't tried that, you have to do that. Right? And I don't know where the misconception mean, nowadays, 20:57 Speaker 1: I hear a lot of people 20:58 Speaker 1: well, 1st of all, hear people that are like big bodybuilders say, I've never taken an AI before in my life, and I've never had any they're lying. I've dealt 21:06 Speaker 1: thousands 21:07 Speaker 1: of people and I've never met a person who's doing over 500 mg who doesn't need an AI. 21:14 Speaker 1: So if you're prone, you need 1, you just take a little bit less, 21:18 Speaker 0: but you need to take that. Yeah. Yeah. And you can also help by microdosing it. If you do 1 shot of testosterone a week, that probably would 21:28 Speaker 0: it wouldn't be good for you. What I would do is microdose it either like 3 times a week or even you could do small amounts daily. Yep. That seems to help with the gyno. Or try Sub Q, like we said earlier. Sub Q. Yep. You don't have to just try it all, man, but you can just see where your sweet spot is. Try them both, and that's how you know. You learn by experience. Okay. 21:51 Speaker 1: How about this? How much of cermorelin 21:53 Speaker 1: should you take when taking it 3 days a week? 21:57 Speaker 1: Go ahead, JD. 22:00 Speaker 0: Well, I wouldn't suggest you take it 3 days a week. It's a secretagogue, and I'm I would you should my suggestion is you should take it daily. So if you're taking Sermorelin, 22:08 Speaker 0: 1, what's your objective? Why are you even taking it? 2, if you're gonna take it, take it properly, which is not 3 days a week, so I would say take it daily at night. 22:16 Speaker 1: Yeah. 22:17 Speaker 1: Yeah. 22:19 Speaker 1: Okay. Have you tried the SLU-three 32 in liquid form? And if so, what do you think? So 22:24 Speaker 1: I have tried and we have tried 22:27 Speaker 1: SLU-three 22:28 Speaker 1: 32 in sublingual 22:30 Speaker 1: tablets, right, which means it melts under your tongue in that mucous membrane and then also in the peptide form. I think that's what you mean by liquid. 22:38 Speaker 1: Yeah. Where you add some bacteriostatic water, you reconstitute it in liquid. 22:42 Speaker 1: On paper 22:45 Speaker 1: you know, on paper, the mo the best bioavailability 22:48 Speaker 1: is sublingual. Hands down. Better than actual just like an oral capsule that's been going in your stomach. So on paper, sublingual. But 22:56 Speaker 1: I think JAD is 1. 22:58 Speaker 1: If you ask people, I've had a whole lot of people tell me that they think the 23:02 Speaker 1: actual peptide 23:04 Speaker 1: maybe works a little bit better. But then again, I've had people tell me that the sublingual 1 they think works better. 23:09 Speaker 1: Yeah. 23:10 Speaker 1: So it's worth a try. 23:13 Speaker 0: I mean, I can't I can't even necessarily when it comes to sleep. 23:17 Speaker 0: Do I have a preference? I'd be honest with you. I've done them both. I don't I don't notice really a big difference. 23:23 Speaker 0: If I had to choose, would probably go with the injectable just because it's kind of embedded in my head with my studies that injectable works better, but we have done the studies on these 2 on sleep in general, and it's 1 of the ones that we do believe. 23:35 Speaker 0: Either way is fine. Yep. 23:36 Speaker 1: True. 23:38 Speaker 0: Yeah. 23:40 Speaker 1: And now I need to go. Do you have the next page? 23:43 Speaker 1: Next page, I will open it up. 23:46 Speaker 1: I think that's great. 23:49 Speaker 1: Hey, do you ship to Europe? 23:52 Speaker 1: If not, when will you? We don't ship anywhere, 23:55 Speaker 1: but we can maybe he can send you a place to get some in Europe. 23:59 Speaker 0: Yep. If 24:01 Speaker 1: I do TRT, 24:03 Speaker 1: do I need to cycler stay on it permanently? We answered that. 24:07 Speaker 1: And 24:08 Speaker 1: this last oh, you know what? Somebody asked there was, hey. What's the best peptide for 24:13 Speaker 1: insulin sensitivity? 24:16 Speaker 2: Retta. 24:17 Speaker 1: Retta 24:19 Speaker 1: aka g l p 3 24:21 Speaker 1: r 24:23 Speaker 1: is amazing stuff, man. That is, like, good for your liver. It will increase your insulin sensitivity, which is what we want. 24:32 Speaker 1: It 24:33 Speaker 1: will help your, like, heart health, liver health. I mean, 24:37 Speaker 1: I have noticed all of those things. I've read some research, the preliminary research on it, and 24:44 Speaker 1: I would do that. And I would, you know, do small doses of it. 24:49 Speaker 1: Maybe, 24:51 Speaker 1: like, 0.5 of a milligram, 500 micrograms, 2, 3 times a week. Yeah. Absolutely. That stuff is awesome. 24:58 Speaker 1: It really is. 24:59 Speaker 0: And I think that's it, man. I mean- That's it. There's 1 guy that left a very long question. He's, I'm 43 years old and started my fitness journey in March. Whoever had wrote that, that's a very long thing that's kinda a little long to read. Shoot me a DM, man, and I would be happy to answer that, and we can I can go over that with you? It sounds like okay, for this guy too, and you probably know who you are. 25:20 Speaker 1: Like, it sounds like you're kicking ass, and the doctor did exactly it seems like you have a pretty good doctor who gave you all of these things 25:27 Speaker 1: and gave you what you wanted, which was to be back in your marine shape. 25:32 Speaker 1: It'd be lean and mean. But 25:35 Speaker 1: you did ask, I 25:37 Speaker 1: want some other peptides that help tighten skin. 25:41 Speaker 1: And the answer is, I would say, SNAP-eight. 25:46 Speaker 1: Botox in a bottle? Yep. Boat SNAP-eight is what makes Botox Botox, 25:51 Speaker 1: but 25:53 Speaker 1: it can be actually just 25:55 Speaker 1: reconstituted 25:56 Speaker 1: and injected 25:57 Speaker 1: in your SubQ. 25:59 Speaker 1: And I would give that a go. That is therefore to tighten skin. Try that. Yep. 26:04 Speaker 1: And that's it. Boom. 26:06 Speaker 0: Man, those are great. 18 questions, so we're moving up on that, but great questions, man. And I like the peptide ones, and I also like the TRT questions. So, man, keep them coming, guys. We'll do this as long as you have questions firing. 26:18 Speaker 0: And I don't know. Anything else you got? That's it. Alright, man. Well, you guys have a great day. Happy Friday to you. This will be dropping tomorrow, and we'll catch you next week on the pep out of the week. Alright. Cool. Later. Bye bye.
