Episode notes

Welcome back, warriors! In this week's Peptide Q&A, JD Denham and William T. Haas dive into postpartum and breastfeeding safety, supporting the body through chelation therapy, the truth about cholesterol and statins, tapering off Retatrutide without regaining weight, athlete stack upgrades, and using oral BPC-157 for a teenager's knee injury.

Chapters:

We cover:

• Peptides Post-C-Section & Breastfeeding: Safe options after delivery, what to avoid during breastfeeding, and topical alternatives for scarring and hair loss

• Chelation Therapy Support Stack: How EBOO compares, and why glutathione, SS-31, MOTS-C, Dihexa, and oral BPC are strong companions through heavy metal detox

• High Cholesterol Without Statins: Why most cholesterol numbers are overblown, the history behind the fat-vs-sugar debate, and smarter alternatives to statin drugs

• MOTS-C Shelf Life After Reconstitution: What we actually know about peptide degradation and the practical rule of thumb for staying in the potency window

• Coming Off Retatrutide Without Regaining Weight: Why slow tapering, high protein, and building muscle on-cycle are the keys to keeping your results

• CJC-1295 vs. Tesamorelin: How they differ in fat-targeting, histamine response, and why Tesamorelin is usually the better pick

• Elite Masters Athlete Stack Overhaul: When to rotate off MOTS-C, why it's time to move to full HGH, and why Cardarine is a game-changer for endurance athletes

• IGF-1 LR3 on a Carnivore Diet: The carb question answered, hypoglycemia risk, and why MK-677 may be the smarter fit

• Ipamorelin vs. Tesamorelin Ratios for Women: Water retention risk, the 3-to-1 Tessa-to-IPA ratio, and why 1 IU HGH plus Tesamorelin may be the cleanest option for women 50+

• Oral BPC-157 for Osgood-Schlatter in Teens: Why it's a safe anti-inflammatory option and the strength imbalance fix that matters just as much
