0:15Speaker 3I get so many headaches every month. It could be chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more. Botox on a botulinum toxin A prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

1:24Speaker 4Welcome back to the Peptide of the Week Podcast. I'm your host JD Denham across the way, Mr. William T. Haas, like always. What's up? What's up, man? We have
1:35Speaker 4a busy day.
3:29Speaker 4Mason would
3:30Speaker 5be in the bubble. The stewardess. Everybody would be all, put him in the bubble. Put him in the bubble. It's a good idea. I've often thought when I have a kid, like these soundproofing things that we have here, just make a closet. Now, guys, I'm not serious about this, but
3:42Speaker 5like soundproof the closet for kids being crazy. And like, it also where they can't hurt and it's all padded,
3:48Speaker 5just shut up and lock you in there and you can't now talk to us and nobody can hear you and you can't hurt yourself. Padded her back When
3:57Speaker 4my sons are crying, like for no reason, like if they hurt themselves, let's cry. Like
4:02Speaker 4everybody knows my stance. I'm crying and I'm this dad and I'm trying to mold them into men. Like, I go, listen, this is the no crying section. You are allowed to cry if you feel like you need to cry. And that's your room. You go in there, we're gonna shut the door. You cry it out and they usually stop crying. That's fucking my cycle. You're so hard. I'm like, I'm like, listen, like he's screaming at the top of his lungs. Either I throw him on the roof.
4:26Speaker 5I'm
4:26Speaker 5joking people obviously again, but like
4:29Speaker 5Speaking of, we, I went to the little league night day at Angel Stadium on Sunday. So we got there at 8AM to tailgate for a 1PM game.
4:40Speaker 5The
4:42Speaker 5kids had fun, but it's funny. So we sat down in the stadium. 1st of all, we're in, like, the whining sun.
4:47Speaker 5Ugh. About 2 minutes after we sat down, the nice the ushers like, hey,
4:52Speaker 5you know, you're not happy. You can, there's plenty of seats up here in the shade. Feel free to ask, tell, are you with everybody? Just tell everybody that y'all can be like, thank you. Oh, dude. Because I'm leaving in 5 minutes. But- Yeah. They had, she goes, Oh yeah, also, can you tell the kids, like, they gotta keep their shirts on? And I was like, Yeah, yeah.
5:09Speaker 5But she goes, So we've had just some kids, it's been a thing now. They're interested in kids take their shirts off and like
5:15Speaker 5wave it around their head like a helicopter. And they,
5:19Speaker 5but she's like, Don't have them do that, but we have a section for the no shirted kids over there. Rebels are across the stadium, literally. And the coach took river and like 2 other kids. He's like, I'm going to take them to the no shirt section.
5:33Speaker 5That's a section where the kids will be chatted soon up there. Yeah, exactly. Yes. So those kids up in the nosebleeds, all the nether shirts on, just running off, being crazy. Oh man, that's funny. It's kind of funny.
5:44Speaker 4Well, that's cool. You gotta do that, man. That's such important. So that's that?
5:49Speaker 5No, but I looked for Dave Singh and I couldn't find him because I didn't, I guess I didn't look hard enough. But we have a good friend who just Oh, he's working? Yeah, cool. So he got approved.
5:58Speaker 5He owns a coffee stand, so he's been doing his coffee. What's the name of it?
6:02Speaker 5Rise espresso bar. Everybody, there's a shout out, Dave.
6:06Speaker 5He had, he's been doing the OC Fair, so he's got a little trailer and he's set up so for all all the events at
6:13Speaker 5the fairgrounds,
6:14Speaker 5but then he got a tryout to do it at Angel Stadium.
6:17Speaker 5And it did and it did it. And he passed the tryout. They did say 1 of his best things are cookies. As you know, he's got these like 0.5 pound cookies.
6:26Speaker 4But
6:27Speaker 5Angel Stadium basically said, thanks. You did great. You're in. You can't sell cookies. We got some We already got a cookie guy. Like, you can't be the cookie guy. He's like, well, whatever. But basically, what comes along with that is
6:41Speaker 5you have to be there for every event that takes place in Angel Stadium. Brutal. So you can't just be like, cool. You can come to the games that you want to come to. Right? No calling it sick. If you there's no calling it sick. So he was there, I'm sure. And any other event that's an Angel Stadium, but I was, you know, toting around a bunch of kids and- I didn't have time. Coffee wasn't on your mind. I gotta find, I gotta cool story about that. So Dave and I,
7:03Speaker 4he was a kickboxing coach. So Dave did. And I used to work out with Dave Saturdays.
7:07Speaker 4We'd we'd meet up and we'd, I met him at the gym and his dad was sober and like, we just hit it off. Love Dave, just kindest guy in the world. He's like my brother. I freaking loved him from right away.
7:18Speaker 4Every Saturday he and I would lift. And, as
7:20Speaker 4he was going through a transition from not going to do that anymore, he didn't know what he was going to do. I was just, the mortgage industry had dried up and we were both in that limbo stage. What are we going to do? Remember we had sat down with Brett. We were, we were talking through all that stuff because we were really like digging into and we both started our businesses right at the same time. Did the fitness stuff. He did the coffee thing and we were talking about this the other day and like where we're both at now. We were like, both all like nervous. Like what are we going to do? You know, and now like, but the point of that is
7:49Speaker 4in between though is hard ass work, dude. We both pay, but people see this part. They're like, oh, you must nice
7:56Speaker 5and be lucky. Want this part too? Want me to share mere money? Here's the must be a nice part that you got to talk about too because it's 16 hour days of no sleep. No doubt. You know what mean? And the stress at all times.
8:07Speaker 5That's a cool story. So now he's, he's He's doing well. He's on his way to doing well. He's just gotta clean up his, like, business, like, the books and stuff because he's Hire somebody. Yeah.
8:17Speaker 5Hire somebody.
8:20Speaker 5But
8:21Speaker 5love him. Another friend, I'm wearing his shirt. It says, eat, pray left. And so our other friend just started this company.
8:28Speaker 5They makes hats that say, what does the hat say? I think it says that. So,
8:36Speaker 5but
8:38Speaker 5come
8:39Speaker 5on. I just wore it like the last 2 days,
8:42Speaker 5father figure.
8:45Speaker 5They say father figure. And he just became a dad. And he just became a dad and he's always wanted to for long time. They've been trying to be for a long time. They've given up, they gave up at 1 point. Yeah. What sucks
8:56Speaker 5and then retried and it happened. But so I'm here repping his clothes and
9:02Speaker 5JD doesn't like them, but I kind of liked these big shirts and I actually am very impressed with- I'd cut the sleeves-
9:07Speaker 5cut the sleeves, bro. Yeah, he did. Yeah. He's
9:10Speaker 5like, I know. Yeah.
9:13Speaker 4So, yeah, cool. Everybody go check this out. I think- I don't even know what the- We'll put it down at the bottom. Yeah, we can put it down. So same by you. And we also want to tell everybody for school, join school. It's people are loving it. We're continuing to put amazing stuff on there. And we are also,
9:30Speaker 4because a lot of people have asked, we have just started a weekly
9:34Speaker 4newsletter
9:36Speaker 4that
9:37Speaker 4is ready to drop and there'll be a link below where you can sign up for that. And there's gonna be a lot of information on that. So a lot of stuff brewing,
9:45Speaker 4people keep asking for things and we try to do our best to provide them
9:49Speaker 4at the pace that we can provide them. We're still going to do the meetup because we get asked literally daily.
9:55Speaker 4Pedro was just talking about people at the gym. When is it? It's like, we're doing it. Yeah, so that's coming. We're
10:02Speaker 4traveling a lot in the next month. That's why we moved it from the 27th. We thought it was a wise decision to not just throw it together,
10:09Speaker 4but that's coming too. So join school newsletter.
10:12Speaker 4You can click the link if you want the weekly newsletter.
10:15Speaker 4And lastly, we will have the warrior meetup at the end of the
10:19Speaker 4summer.
10:20Speaker 50 End of the summer tour of war meetup. We are

10:38Speaker 4No, it's going be this weekend for father's day. So for Friday, we're going to have a locals
10:43Speaker 4discount for people to actually come in to
10:46Speaker 4the business
10:47Speaker 5and get a locals discount. We have a discount, any like, we have some like free, some swag do we give out and like, just to say hi and
10:55Speaker 5you know, nothing really
10:57Speaker 5like, it's not like a big planned event or anything folks. Yeah. But if you like what we do and you're
11:03Speaker 4in Orange County and you wanted to come by and see
11:06Speaker 4the team, get some stuff. And we are trying to cultivate that type of people. Want to like
11:11Speaker 4meet the people. It's
11:13Speaker 4a big part of just a businessman.
11:15Speaker 4It's old
11:16Speaker 4school stuff. We pride ourselves in trying to say we're from the old school,
11:21Speaker 4someone's hand and it's opinion. It's just as good as signature.
11:24Speaker 5Knowing your neighbors, helping your neighbors,
11:27Speaker 5right? Like supporting local businesses.
11:30Speaker 5This small business is the lifeblood of this country by the way.
11:35Speaker 5We all should do our parts to yes. Help each other out.
11:40Speaker 5Like my friend started this company and
11:43Speaker 5he sent us, he gave us a shirt and a couple of hats. And then I went and bought a couple more shirts.
11:49Speaker 5Didn't ask for a discount. Didn't ask for No, I haven't even told him yet that I bought them.
11:54Speaker 4I've seen people that order from us that I know. And I'm like, that dude, and then I text them and say, here's a discount code because bro, that's cool. That is cool. You know, I mean, not to knock people that ask for a discount, but people ask for a discount, but like the people that just do it because they want to support. Yeah. That is very cool. That is style. That's great. It's good stuff. Well, cool. Let's kick us off. We've got the Q and A and then we are hitting a plane. 1 Yes. Let's do it. 1. What's up fellas. Thank you for all you guys are doing. The world needed you guys.
12:23Speaker 5I have an odd question that hopefully you can For the legal side of peptide world, I know a few police officers in hot water with their agencies over peptides,
12:32Speaker 5or potential sales of peptides. Probably a big difference in the police's mind. Do you all know what
12:40Speaker 5what the
12:41Speaker 5legalities behind
12:43Speaker 5it here in California is or a potential crime?
12:47Speaker 5Lap it low. Thank you again. Can't wait for the next peptide of the week. Right. That's a unique 1. That's a 1st It's unique question. It's a good question. So 1st of all,
12:57Speaker 5the peptides operate in definitely a gray space that's kind of tightening pretty fast. But
13:03Speaker 5for a police officer,
13:06Speaker 5just realize if you're a police officer, right, you also despite what things are legal and not legal, you probably have an elevated code of conduct
13:15Speaker 5that you need to look into that we can't that I have no idea what that is. But usually like, just because something's legal doesn't necessarily mean it's okay for a police officer to do. I would watch yourself.
13:26Speaker 5I think that,
13:28Speaker 5and so in the, and they even, I even looked this up and like sometimes they'll treat
13:32Speaker 5un FDA approved drugs that are not illegal, right, as like controlled substances
13:38Speaker 5as a police officer. So just watch yours breed your own Yeah. Maybe like dude, I don't know. Seriously, it's not worth none of this stuff, it's not worth losing your badge or career over. That's for damn sure. Now we know intimately a company that
13:54Speaker 5are all firefighters,
13:56Speaker 5and they have a peptide business
13:59Speaker 5that sells only to firefighters.
14:03Speaker 5And I think that that's great
14:05Speaker 5shit. Getting our public servants who need their bodies to recover, right, and to work better,
14:11Speaker 5all the support they can possibly get plus putting some extra money in their pocket, plus giving them all discounts. Like I think that's awesome, but I'm sure there's some lawyers, some asshole out there that
14:21Speaker 5can find a way to profit off of this and to screw them over. Absolutely. Which is unfortunate.
14:26Speaker 5But
14:27Speaker 5so the police officer, dude, I know that that's happening in the fire department. Now they need to make sure, you know, I'm sure they know the rules and they're very out and open. They're not doing this. Not
14:36Speaker 5like, Hey dude, Ruth is like toolbox here. Want to buy some peptides? This is a business that they have reps and firehouses.
14:44Speaker 5So that's happening. I don't know about the police,
14:47Speaker 5but that's all I can say. I know that, like, research
14:51Speaker 5only use, like, to sell peptides, right, the ones that are not FDA approved, okay, all the peptides so the FDA approved ones are
15:00Speaker 5all the GLP or Ozempic,
15:03Speaker 5right, or semaglutide,
15:05Speaker 5tirzepatide. God, we don't even deal with these things. I forget the names. Seriously.
15:09Speaker 5We're those. Tirzepatide.
15:11Speaker 5Right. Tesamorelin,
15:13Speaker 5SS-thirty
15:13Speaker 51 is now FDA approved. There's
15:17Speaker 5a few more that are, but
15:20Speaker 5those ones cannot be essentially,
15:23Speaker 5like, cannot be sold without a prescription. Okay? All the other ones that are not FDA approved can be sold, but they cannot be sold for human consumption. They need to be like research use only. So whoever's selling it, you cannot
15:37Speaker 5elude to, hey, you should you should buy this because you're going to use it or how to use it, etcetera. You're selling it and saying, hey, this is for you to do some home research and
15:48Speaker 5my hand, like whatever you want to do to do with it. It's great. That's
15:53Speaker 5the but that doesn't really apply or affect this police officer. I think you need to check out what your own codes are, especially selling it. Yeah.
16:01Speaker 5There's a difference there. Like, Winstraw, for example, anabolic steroid, totally okay to possess and take
16:07Speaker 5unless you're a Olympic unless you're a professional athlete competing. Right. But also not okay to sell.
16:14Speaker 5So you're okay to buy it and use it, but you can't sell.
16:20Speaker 5That's illegal,
16:22Speaker 5like illegal, illegal.
16:24Speaker 5You know,
16:25Speaker 5but it's not illegal. The actual substance isn't illegal in itself. Whatever I
16:30Speaker 4mean, I would think that there's a big difference of, are they selling the peptides? Are they taking the peptides now? I think it really boils down to the department policy. I don't know if there's,
16:39Speaker 4would imagine the police departments have the same policies, but probably not. Don't think I bet. So like we had a gal that a police officer that came on 1 of my other podcasts and she had to get clearance and clearance and clearance, which was intelligent on her behalf.
16:53Speaker 4I felt that
16:55Speaker 4at 1 point to be pretty like, come on dude, but like it's her job. Right? And so I totally got it.
17:01Speaker 4Then they cleared her. But if
17:04Speaker 5she didn't get cleared and she's on, you know, a podcast talking about whatever pepcats and stuff, you know, she can get in trouble. Well, right. I think it's for sure a lot of, especially as far as the use goes, it's like a don't ask, don't tell. Right? Like what
17:16Speaker 5are they going do? Like proactively test people for peptides? No. But
17:21Speaker 5so if you're taking them just like- You find a needle over your
17:24Speaker 4locker and it works.
17:26Speaker 5Don't do that because you cannot tell them. I mean, anyway, I won't even Yeah.
17:31Speaker 4Are great, man. Yeah. We all know what they're for, but you can't sell them for human consumption. They have to be for research.
17:37Speaker 4Sell them as research. What do you do with the research? Up to you. You're an adult, act like it.
17:42Speaker 5That's it. And research. Don't sell them if you're a cop. Don't sell them openly,
17:48Speaker 5I don't know. And be careful what you are selling to dude. Like just cause you can, you know, found some way to get something really cheap from China, like, that's not good enough to sell.
18:00Speaker 4Dude, everybody's talking about that. These days are not Tesamorelin, You need to
18:05Speaker 5yeah.
18:06Speaker 5Okay.
18:08Speaker 4Good. You got that. Number 2. Hey, JD and Will. I've been seeing discussion lately around Tesamorelin
18:13Speaker 4in the morning when also running Retta,
18:16Speaker 4mainly because gastric emptying is slowed in the typical 3 to 4 hour fasting window before bed can be tough to manage
18:23Speaker 4consistently.
18:24Speaker 4Do you recommend switching Tessa to the morning in that situation?
18:29Speaker 4If so, how long should you wait to eat after for best effectiveness?
18:34Speaker 4Also,
18:35Speaker 4on 1 of the recent podcasts with Paul,
18:38Speaker 4I noticed the recommended,
18:40Speaker 4tested dosing sounded quite a bit lower than the common 2 mgs protocol.
18:46Speaker 4Has your thinking shifted on optimal dosing when combined with Retta?
18:51Speaker 4Just trying to understand the approach is actually best from both an effective and practicality
18:57Speaker 5standpoint. Great question. Yeah, that's a good question.
19:00Speaker 4He's obviously thought through that and probably done some research, but that's a great question. And I think I ought to correct you that
19:07Speaker 5okay. So I just I just we're gonna post something to school that's very similar and kind of is a is my I've done a bunch of research on this and a well thought out answer to this and encompassing some other things, but basically on Tesa and Retta, which is a freaking awesome combination.
19:24Speaker 5But the dosing times do matter. And I will tell you that I might just say something that kind of contradicts
19:31Speaker 5what we have talked about in the past and because it's- It's all gross. It's
19:35Speaker 5gross. There's new information. But the 1st thing is you said that, so the 2 mg, we have never ever, ever, ever said to take 2 mg of Tesamorelin,
19:45Speaker 5ever. Now the FDA, I'm reading this is literally from the FDA approved, approved dosing,
19:50Speaker 5right, for Tesamorelin,
19:53Speaker 52 mg,
19:54Speaker 5right? And this is only, but only for
19:58Speaker 5HIV associated lipodystrophy,
20:00Speaker 5right? Excess visceral fat in the HIV patients.
20:04Speaker 5And
20:05Speaker 5because that will the medication they're taking, it will freeze and it ultimately can be fatal. So
20:11Speaker 5they, in this study,
20:14Speaker 5what they're trying to do is have the patient not die from this
20:18Speaker 5lipodystrophy.
20:19Speaker 5So they're throwing everything at it. Who cares about the other side effects that 2 mg of Tesamorelin are going to produce?
20:27Speaker 5Only thing that's important is saving this patient's life.
20:30Speaker 5I don't care if they look bad or bloated or blah, blah, blah. Right? But they are going to fix this problem. So that 2 mg that you've heard, we've never said it. And I
20:41Speaker 5don't think that's appropriate for the normal person who wants to
20:45Speaker 5trim up and have their growth hormone boosted a bit. Right? I think so. Still stand by the starting point and 0.5 of a milligram
20:53Speaker 5bump up to a full milligram. Hire a nap, man. You better be a special person
20:58Speaker 5who can take that and not have a bunch of water retention.
21:03Speaker 5But here is the answer for the Tesamorelin.
21:05Speaker 5Okay. Have normally
21:08Speaker 5Tesamorelin
21:09Speaker 5works is blunted. K? It's by by insulin in your body. Okay? So you do not want
21:16Speaker 4Low energy, unfocused,
21:18Speaker 4foggy,
21:19Speaker 4you might be dehydrated. Gatorade
21:22Speaker 40 powders have been scientifically designed to help improve hydration balance in the body with a clinically proven electrolyte blend and no artificial colors or flavors. Great tasting hydration no matter where you're going. Shop now online or at retailers nationwide.
21:36Speaker 4Gatorade hydrates better than water. Is it in you? Symptoms noted are signs of mild to moderate dehydration.
21:42Speaker 3Consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist. I get so many headaches every month. It could be chronic migraine 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more. Botox on a botulinum toxin A prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.
22:38Speaker 2Why wait? Ask your doctor. Visit botoxchronicmigraine.com
22:42Speaker 2or call one-eight hundred-44Botox
22:44Speaker 5to learn more. And a whole bunch of insulin occurring, your blood full of insulin,
22:49Speaker 5at the same time taking Tesamorelin,
22:51Speaker 5that pathway will really blunt the growth hormonal effects of Tesamorelin.
22:56Speaker 5Reda,
22:58Speaker 5it's GLP-one
22:59Speaker 5agonism, right? It's got a really high GLP-one agonism higher than semaglutide.
23:04Speaker 5Well, about equal to semaglutide, way higher than tirzepatide.
23:08Speaker 5What that does is part of it is
23:10Speaker 5it tells your body, Hey, there's a bunch of sugar and we just ate a big meal, which it really didn't. Our bodies then produces pushes a whole bunch of insulin out. Okay? So when we're taking Retta, your body's you're pushing a bunch of insulin into your body. Yeah. So,
23:26Speaker 5and Tesamorelin isn't gonna work very well with a bunch of insulin.
23:30Speaker 5So the goal here is to separate those as much as possible. Now, unfortunately GLP-one is a 5 day activated, right, thing like, so there's
23:39Speaker 5no fully getting away from the Reta, but
23:43Speaker 5that negation
23:44Speaker 5isn't
23:45Speaker 5even at all equal to the plus of the synergy of putting them together. So here's the quick easy recommendation is we have always said take Tesamorelin at night. Okay? Why that is what it's FDA approved to take at night. Why? Because that links up to your circadian rhythm of when our biggest natural growth hormone pulses is at night. And we're trying to like boost that up.
24:06Speaker 5We've said, take it at night,
24:09Speaker 5but also,
24:12Speaker 5also the thing is there's that,
24:15Speaker 5but you've eaten all day usually. Okay. Even if you don't eat 2 hours before, you're still got a little bit of insulin going down. Right. It is better to take Tesamorelin
24:24Speaker 5if taking Retta in
24:27Speaker 5the morning time after an 8 hour fast and still fasted.
24:30Speaker 5That's more important than the circadian rhythm joining up and take Retta at nighttime. So the quick answer, the bottom line, Reta at night,
24:39Speaker 5Tessa,
24:40Speaker 5I think in the morning, that's what's contradictory.
24:43Speaker 5Right? But if you didn't take them, you want to separate them as much as possible. Right? Reta 3 times a week, Tessa daily,
24:51Speaker 5but on a fasted state on the Tesamorelin. Yeah. Don't eat either another hour after you take it. So 8 hour fast, because you're sleeping, take your dose of Tesa, don't eat for another hour, but also at that Reta 3 times a week at night, I'd go 2 hours before you eat that. Cause that's also heavily influenced by
25:08Speaker 5you being fasted or not. Yeah. Generally 2 hours ish, 2 hours ish. And then hour on the after. And it's not easy at night, dude. No, no. We all get hungry at night. Plus trying to go to sleep.
25:19Speaker 5Hungry is miserable. Totally. I can't do it. You can feel your ribs.
25:23Speaker 5So,
25:25Speaker 5I wrote this with more coherent thought for everybody.
25:29Speaker 4Well, with you that asked this like 6 months ago, it would have been a different answer because the
25:34Speaker 4peptides are obviously being more studied more and you have so many people taking them. You have so many,
25:41Speaker 4so
25:42Speaker 4much feedback. It's just, it's changing. It's evolving. It's great. So much research. Gosh, if you looked at some of the 1st podcasts that we did, we've changed from it because we have worked with hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people since then. And again, we've said it a 100 times how something reads isn't exactly how it's going to actually play out in the human body because that's just science projects.
26:02Speaker 4Yeah, that I think that you nailed it. I wouldn't have answered that that way either. But as we've learned more 3 now, if you pull out Retta, it changes the whole Kind of,
26:13Speaker 5kind of changes the whole equation,
26:15Speaker 5but, but it's still
26:17Speaker 5that 1. I'm still, I kind of toss it, man. Try
26:21Speaker 5it. Like if I would do, if it's, if you pull Retta completely,
26:25Speaker 5that doesn't negate the argument 3 for taking Tessa, the more
26:29Speaker 5taking Tessa in a very extremely fast state.
26:32Speaker 5It's more important than it's circadian rhythm at nighttime.
26:36Speaker 4That's heavy.
26:38Speaker 5I always like taking Retta because at night everybody, by the way, like some people get nauseous from it still, right? Semaglutide, super, a lot of nausea, definitely take it right before you go to bed. So the worst nausea you're, you sleep through same thing, which is appetite.
26:53Speaker 5I would, I still have, you know, just kind of kept with that and said, take Retta at night because if there happens to be any nausea, you'll sleep it off. No problem. And I guess I would say, so then definitely I would, let's try not to take the test at night. Also it's those of you who've taken it, like it's still going to work. Yeah. Just you're
27:12Speaker 5going to amplify it a little bit more by taking it in the morning. But if you pull Retta completely, I don't know, man. I think that this is like- Still going, you're, you're, so you- Still might just be the better idea to take it in morning. Interesting.
27:25Speaker 5I don't know. Try both. It's try both. Like, here's the like, we're still studying. Like, scientists seems to be
27:31Speaker 4not exactly sure of what is- Well, yeah, you have to, like, also, like, I think the best thing is, how do you feel? That's how do you feel? Because that, I think like if some, if a man says, you need to take this much testosterone and you needed to take this much of this boy, that's like bro science, right? And that's going to give you a beacon. But like, how do you feel? Like if you feel great,
27:52Speaker 4then maybe you shouldn't touch it. You know what I mean? If you take the test at night and then you switch it, you do it for like maybe like 3 weeks each and switch it. How do you feel? Try that. Like that's, that's, that's the research
28:02Speaker 4you're actually doing research. Like,
28:04Speaker 4that's the stuff that I could tell you with my own experience with peptides,
28:09Speaker 4dude, it's radically changed
28:11Speaker 4with my own experience where I'm not even going take peptides at night. I've had so much sleeping problems and I don't, I'm doing so good in sleeping now that I'm not even going to mess with So like I take all my peptides in the morning and I don't take any at night. It's been great for me. Saying you're me, but like that,
28:27Speaker 4I don't want to take people when they sometimes when people take a read out, they don't sleep that well. It's just, it is what it is. So taking it at night, could mess that up. But anyways, you have to just try. It
28:37Speaker 4takes a while. We all want to maximize our peptides. They're not cheap.
28:42Speaker 4Right? So it's a great question,
28:45Speaker 4but once again, got to just try them both. See how you feel baby. But your answer is now Tessa morning.
28:52Speaker 4Nice. I like it. Yeah. Look, change. At. Yeah.
28:55Speaker 4So I got, I'm gonna say Tessa Ippel though. Am going say Tesa. I know. He's a Tesa Ipamorelin. Just
29:02Speaker 5don't think I just don't see why you would, just take Tesamorelin by itself. Yeah.
29:07Speaker 5Maximize it. If Ipamorelin's gonna just synergistically make it work that much better, like, what why not? Why not? And there's a blend now, so just- There's, yeah,
29:15Speaker 5different different configurations
29:17Speaker 5of blends too or take them if you wanna get your own perfect precise ratio,
29:21Speaker 5cool, by by Tessa and by Ipam and take them together.
29:26Speaker 5But there's also blends like a like a 5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 3 mg, which I think is a good 10 mg, 3 mg, I think is a good ratio. That's basically like 3 parts,
29:36Speaker 5Tessa to 1 part Ipah. I think that's really good for women because the Ipah we know is too much HGH
29:45Speaker 5secretion
29:46Speaker 5can add can end up in a little bit too much water retention and especially for women because they're sensitive to everything and like a 3 to 1 ratio
29:56Speaker 5seems to really work well for a lot of people. You. Yeah. And Paul, I don't think ever said 2 mg of tests. I don't think we, we've never said 2 mg of Tesamore. Don't remember, man. We have done a lot of podcasts,
30:08Speaker 5so I don't know,
30:10Speaker 5But that is what the clinical team says. So I Get rolling, baby. Okay. I've been contemplating
30:14Speaker 5starting Clo,
30:16Speaker 5prior to abdominal surgery in August.
30:19Speaker 5Wondering, 1, is this a good 1 to start with? 2, if so, what other supplements like vitamins, collagen do you recommend pairing with it?
30:27Speaker 5If Cloak isn't the 1 to use before a surgery like this, what would you suggest in achieving optimal healing?
30:34Speaker 4You know where that's going?
30:35Speaker 5Think we're both gonna answer. Ahead. Yeah, give me what you're Well,
30:38Speaker 4I think we're going to answer the same, but let's see.
30:41Speaker 4I would, I like the GHK-3CU.
30:44Speaker 4And I'm thinking you're going with the CLO because of the KPV, because that's obviously great too. Like the reason I'm going say start with the Wolverine is just because you can take a shit ton out of it as you should.
30:54Speaker 4You know, we've talked about it on this podcast
30:56Speaker 4countless times that, my surgery, I took massive, massive, massive doses of the Wolverine. And I have no doubt in my mind that it expedited my healing,
31:06Speaker 4cut it down by at least 0.333, maybe 0.667, literally. Was in the gym 2 weeks later. So,
31:12Speaker 4yeah, so that's what I would, I would do the Wolverine now GHK-3s
31:16Speaker 4for collagen. Great added in there, but I personally would separate them
31:21Speaker 4because of that. Can take a ton. How much did you take? I don't know. How much can you afford? Like literally before
31:27Speaker 4the surgery, like start dosing about 3 weeks at least. And then when you have that surgery, just blast it. I mean, I was taking huge doses where even I was like, you sure bro? And
31:37Speaker 4he was right.
31:39Speaker 4So that's why you want to separate those. So I like the Clo idea.
31:43Speaker 4Just, I would personally separate it from that because you can't control that mountain and CLO. So a lot of Wolverine
31:49Speaker 4add in the GHK-3s, which is going to be great for the collagen production. Do the key KPV 2 for gut, but that's how I'm gonna answer that for sure. I would agree. So here's in a more practical sense, like, the GHKCu
32:02Speaker 5is out is working on your, like, dermis layer really is to to to
32:06Speaker 5have your body create more collagen right there on the skin layer. So it's actually showing that to heal skin wounds faster. And what you are trying to do is not have scars on your abdominal surgery. Right? And like, so absolutely
32:18Speaker 5take GHK-3Cu.
32:19Speaker 5The problem is you can't take a lot of it.
32:22Speaker 5And if you take CLO, you have equal 1 parts, not actually equal, but like a 10 megs BPC-ten
32:28Speaker 5megs-ten
32:29Speaker 5megs KPV,
32:30Speaker 550 megs
32:33Speaker 5what it is. You have to be in that ratio. Okay? We don't I wouldn't really take more than, you know, 3.5
32:40Speaker 5migs 3 times a week of GHKCU.
32:42Speaker 5So here's what I would do is I would get the clo.
32:45Speaker 5I would take that
32:47Speaker 53 times a week, like 3.3 mg of it. And then I would also buy the BPC plus TB 500 mix, which is the Wolverine blend
32:58Speaker 5and supplement,
32:59Speaker 5use that to blast in way more BPC and TB
33:04Speaker 4before and after, especially after 5
33:07Speaker 5days, especially after saturate that. And we're talking, I mean, I would talk, I don't know,
33:13Speaker 52 to 5 mg a day. If you can afford more, go ahead, but like more realistically, right. 2 mgs to 5 mg at least for the 1st month after and put it right there. Hell, SNAP-eight might not be even be after it is. Guys, we're talking, do not inject this stuff into an open wound, right? Like the goal is to put that like a triangle kind of around where the surgery is. So we're trying to really just saturate from all angles with
33:38Speaker 5all of this, you know, stem cell healing properties and collagen absorption signaling of BPC and TB-five 100 all around there. SNAP-eight
33:49Speaker 5helps muscles wrinkles.
33:50Speaker 5It helps your
33:51Speaker 5skin essentially and muscles relax a bit, and that does not cause wrinkling.
33:56Speaker 5Therefore,
33:58Speaker 5it can tighten up skin, but I would put on the GHK-3Cu
34:01Speaker 5plus
34:02Speaker 5SNAP-8s
34:03Speaker 5serum
34:04Speaker 5after that wound is closed. That's amazing for sure.
34:07Speaker 5A 100%.
34:09Speaker 5Other supplements, vitamin C, zinc, vitamin D,
34:14Speaker 5get a lot of sun. Good diet.
34:17Speaker 5You can also add Tessa Ipka. Okay. What are those doing? Those increase growth
34:21Speaker 5hormone signaling, right? That's your body growing and healing faster. So that'll give you kind of an overall systemic thing. And then we got the CLO plus Wolverine,
34:30Speaker 5which is just adding high doses of BPC TB
34:34Speaker 5spot injected there. Boom.
34:36Speaker 4Boom. That's it. Thank you. Luck with that. I like it. Yeah. Keep us posted. You'll have good luck. Wolverine. That's why we choose it as our favorite, but just because it's a, you can use a ton of it as you should. And it's just universal.
34:49Speaker 4Right. Am I up? Yeah.
34:51Speaker 4All right. Hi all. Hello from Scotland. Glad I found the group of your amazing podcasts. Thinking of doing carnivore, but heard it doesn't go well on Reta due to the high fat content.
35:01Speaker 4Should I drop the Retta altogether or just lower the dose? On 2 Migs just
35:07Speaker 4now, as well as doing TRT
35:09Speaker 4and going to start 2 IUs of GH shortly.
35:13Speaker 4Thank you for the information you give
35:16Speaker 4and sharing your experience of using peptides. Big love from Scotland.
35:21Speaker 5Yeah.
35:22Speaker 4School
35:23Speaker 4what's that? What's it? That
35:25Speaker 4movie. The problem with Scotland is it's full of Scots. Scots.
35:29Speaker 4Braveheart. Oh. Braveheart. That's amazing. Planet. Scotland's full of Scots. Yeah. Dude. Assholes.
35:35Speaker 5God, English suck in history.
35:38Speaker 5So does Americans from some point of view, but we all suck every conquering. Dude, I sold that movie like And
35:45Speaker 4I walked out of it and ready to conquer the world.
35:48Speaker 4Still, I will still watch that. When you're done, it's like when he kills his bride, just did, you will die.
35:56Speaker 5Well, I'm a carnivore. I bet William Wallace was an alcoholic too, by the way.
36:00Speaker 4He did those people. Wore your gene baby. Crazy. Yeah.
36:04Speaker 4And kept his ass alive. Yeah. Give him some more booze.
36:08Speaker 4It's
36:09Speaker 4something about that gene, bro. Like it's, that's for sure. Agree. Yeah, I'm a carnivore. I can tell you I've done Retta and
36:18Speaker 4I don't know. I mean, you can definitely do Retrutide with
36:22Speaker 4a big carnivore without it. Now, my experience,
36:25Speaker 4which is the best I can give you because it's my experience. I was on Carnivore for 5 years
36:30Speaker 4until I started doing Retta. Now, I found personally
36:35Speaker 4that
36:36Speaker 4I did feel very strongly that my body
36:40Speaker 4needed
36:41Speaker 4carbs
36:42Speaker 4for the 1st time in 5 years. I didn't have that strong
36:45Speaker 4pull on
36:48Speaker 4me until I started adding in the Retta. So
36:53Speaker 4you can for sure.
36:55Speaker 4You think that you'll get a little bit of benefit more from it if you do add a little bit of carbs in. What's
37:02Speaker 4your objectives?
37:03Speaker 4I mean, that's always the answer to that question. Are you trying to lose weight? You're trying to get buff. Are you, that plays a huge role in it. You know, I was, I was, you know, super lean and in shape,
37:15Speaker 4so I could get away with carbs. You know, I love the carnivore lifestyle. And since I've started, I've ping pong back and forth because once you haven't had cars for 5 years and you have them, damn, they're good.
37:27Speaker 4But I like how I feel
37:29Speaker 4without them, but
37:31Speaker 4you know, so anyways, but no, yeah, you absolutely can.
37:35Speaker 4Should you? I really think from a standpoint of the objective is going to answer that better. Yes, you can get away with carnivore and doing some carbs, even maybe try what I'm doing right now is carbs before you lift carbs after, keep it real low,
37:51Speaker 4because you're not
37:53Speaker 4even going to notice body wise that you're those carbs. It's gonna, you're gonna do well with them. But if you want to stay strict carnivore,
38:00Speaker 4yes, you can. Yep. Absolutely. You totally can. It's a good thing. In fact, it will make enhance everything now.
38:07Speaker 4Yes. What are your goals? If you're doing carnivore for
38:10Speaker 5immune,
38:11Speaker 5like autoimmune suppression things,
38:13Speaker 5that's a different story. But, like, if you're just if you're trying to take Retta and do carnivore because you wanna look good and lose weight, like,
38:21Speaker 5don't do the full carnivore. You can have some carbs. Yeah. It you're Especially on Retta. Retta, like, the Retta is
38:27Speaker 5so low carnivore is gonna be as low as, like, it's gonna increase your insulin sensitivity.
38:33Speaker 5It's not gonna,
38:36Speaker 5and
38:37Speaker 5taking Retta is actually gonna boost pump more insulin in you, which is gonna work even better
38:43Speaker 5in this low insulin state,
38:45Speaker 5they will 1 hand a 100% just amplify the hell out of each other. Right?
38:50Speaker 5Can eat a little bit of carbs because the Retta would just take care of that. Will just absorb it and the insulin will kill it off and it'll take some IGF-one too, like before you lift and like, bro, if you're eating a good amount of protein, just sucks all these nutrients that you're getting right in the right places. I
39:06Speaker 5guess, so here are some concerns
39:08Speaker 5with doing that is the digestion.
39:11Speaker 5So already
39:13Speaker 5having a low having a high protein and high fat diet can slow digestion a little bit. Okay? That's why you feel a bit fuller longer from fat. Okay? That's a good thing. Right? It can also reduce your appetite. So it can further
39:25Speaker 5slow that GI tract,
39:27Speaker 5which is a good thing. That's the whole point. Right? But taken to the extreme,
39:34Speaker 5you don't want it to freeze. Yeah. You know? So fiber, you could actually add pure fiber supplement,
39:41Speaker 5which which is not carnivore negates the carnivore, but it keeps you keto. It's wise. Yeah. So I
39:47Speaker 4had that issue towards the end. I don't know how long I did red. I don't really track it, but maybe 6 months give or take. And I was having some stomach problems towards the end and I was pretty confident it was red. So I jumped off for sure. Drink lots of water.
40:02Speaker 5Hydration.
40:03Speaker 5Just hydrate, get those stuff moving, eat enough fat. Right? If people do carnivore and just eat too much protein, that's really gonna slow that gut down. You have said like, Hey dude, the more fat you know you're eating enough fat, if you poop just bloop easy.
40:16Speaker 5If you're not,
40:18Speaker 4it's just gonna just rock up. Yeah. Tells you, that's how you do it.
40:23Speaker 5Body, need to listen to your body.
40:26Speaker 5Gallstone risks.
40:27Speaker 5Right? True. Having high protein and
40:31Speaker 5like no fiber. Right? Because it's just gonna start solidifying.
40:35Speaker 5Creating little gallstones, I suppose.
40:38Speaker 5Electrolytes
40:38Speaker 5will be no in keto folks.
40:41Speaker 5Making a mistake. If you're in carnivore, you're keto.
40:45Speaker 5It's just a bit different. Whereas carnivores, like animal products,
40:49Speaker 5keto is like, I don't care. You just know, no carbs to throw you out of ketosis and mostly protein. Yeah. Ketos are, you gotta track macros like crazy. Kind of. You gotta know your macros and keep these things. Just makes things get more complicated. Does. Carbs eat the
41:06Speaker 4simple. Don't eat this. Eat this. For like a caveman like me, crazy. But
41:12Speaker 5then it gets kind of hard to get pure fat. It is like olive oil,
41:16Speaker 5avocados.
41:16Speaker 4That's not carnivore.
41:18Speaker 5That's what I'm saying. Beefalo.
41:20Speaker 5Beefalo is about all you can do is pure fat. Right?
41:24Speaker 5At least with keto,
41:26Speaker 5you can do
41:27Speaker 4olive oil,
41:28Speaker 5MCT oil,
41:29Speaker 4and avocados.
41:31Speaker 5It's about the only thing that's just pure fat. Yeah. Nuts aren't even pure fat. They have some protein in them. Eggs aren't. I guess you could eat egg yolks, but still yolk has a little protein.
41:40Speaker 5Anyway,
41:42Speaker 5point there oh, electrolytes. So carbohydrates
41:45Speaker 5is basically how we store water in our muscles, right? So you will notice for sure on keto, carnivore, you might start cramping up a lot easier. So this is why you need to water,
41:55Speaker 5water, water, water. Electrolyte. Yes. Salt. Salt. Your electrolyte, the only electrolyte you can get is from salt. You'll see a lot of these like isopure
42:02Speaker 5protein
42:03Speaker 5is they've
42:05Speaker 5long time ago, they made that stuff for people in keto. You look at the content and it's
42:10Speaker 5salt, the sodium content is like off the charts.
42:13Speaker 5And an uneducated mind would be like, wow, like, oh, that's so bad for you. It's all salt. Well, the whole point is because they're most of their stuff is just no, no, no carbs. They know you got no carbs. You better find a way to hold water in your body. And salt sodium is the only way to do it. And if you're doing it correctly, that's okay. It's not bad. If you're just to
42:32Speaker 5eat unhealthy shit and just drink
42:35Speaker 5salt all day along with your sugar stuff, then it's bad. But if you're doing everything right, sodium can be good is good for you. Right?
42:41Speaker 5You just say like, dude, you're feeling like crap. You just chug some Celtics.
42:46Speaker 4Low energy, unfocused,
42:48Speaker 4foggy,
42:49Speaker 4you might be dehydrated. Gatorade

42:58Speaker 4blend and no artificial colors or flavors, great tasting hydration no matter where you're going. Shop now online or at retailers nationwide.
43:07Speaker 3Gatorade hydrates better than water. Is it in you? Symptoms noted are signs of mild to moderate dehydration. Consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist. I get so many headaches every month. It could be chronic migraine 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more. Botox on a botulinum toxin A prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, Myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications
44:05Speaker 3as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.
44:08Speaker 2Why wait? Ask your doctor, visit botoxchronicmigraine.com
44:12Speaker 2or call one-eight hundred-44Botox
44:14Speaker 4to learn more. Salt and- Well, yeah, if you're drinking water without salt,
44:19Speaker 4you're not gonna really absorb a lot of that water, dude. So you gotta throw that my my wife always, like, laughs because I always have a ton of salt in my because it's you you use it. Yep. Absolutely. Your body needs it. But I think the fiber will really help. It's not nivore, but if we're doing keto, dude, the yeast- How hard core carnivore do you want to do? If you want to be do it for like the reason of like some of the guys that are just,
44:40Speaker 4they have their, that's what they do and they won't break it. Or like me, I was like, a avocado was a carnivore. No, but like it's fat and I liked it and it worked for me. So what's your objective? What's your objective? Not that simple. All right, good job.
44:54Speaker 5What?
44:55Speaker 4Love carnivore.
44:56Speaker 5Stuff. Did I've, as of yesterday started
44:59Speaker 5going mostly carnivore, but I'm not going to be strict on it, but just basically I'm cutting out. Here's the thing folks I have learned in my life. If I can not eat sweets
45:08Speaker 5and get enough protein, like protein's my barometer. If you're just working to get enough protein, right, if you can get like in for a big man, right, 2 50 pounds, right? Gram a pound. If I want it 2 g, which is pretty impossible,
45:22Speaker 52 g of protein per pound of body Man, that's a lot. Shit ton of protein. Yeah. It's 500 grams of protein. Right? It's not really doable.
45:30Speaker 5That is, but I'm going for at least a gram, very minimum, at least that's even hard to do. It is.
45:36Speaker 5If I can get a gram of protein,
45:39Speaker 5okay, if I can get a gram and 0.5 of protein per pound of body weight,
45:42Speaker 5guess what? I'm probably getting enough fat if I'm not going full keto, right? Like I'm getting my dietary need of fat. I'm probably not, and I'm not eating sweets.
45:50Speaker 5I'm guarantee you that I'm not eating a bunch of other carbs because they can't even fit with that much protein coming in. Right? Yeah. You're full. And you start to just go, god dang. I am doing all these good things for my body. I don't want that I don't want that shit. Takes a while. You will see I don't know. For me, it, like, works fast. Like, I don't notice in a couple days before we're gonna be like, dude, I'm cutting out this to grow. The the when you don't crave the sugars. Yes. Oh, that does. You have to change your taste buds and that's not easy. I've done it numerous times. I'm in the middle of it now. Like I keep kind of like thinking, because I feel better. I feel better when I am on full carnivore,
46:23Speaker 4but
46:24Speaker 4I'm getting older and my body's like, my God, he's going through some changes. So I like, I'm toying around with some different diet stuff just to see where I can find that sweet spot. And those carbs,
46:34Speaker 4I get a little bloated, just how it is. But I look bigger. So like, what is your What's your objective? If you wanna get ripped Frozen colors. Carnivore will rip you up, dude. It will rip you hardcore carnivore for a month, I'm telling you, you will drop fat like crazy. Then you wanna get worse. You wanna get me buff really 1 day as I do carnivore and then some carbs. Some carbs. You'll go, like, holy shit. Were twice the size. And I'm still looking lean, a little bit up because you've, then you IGF-one,
47:00Speaker 5do that consistently.
47:01Speaker 5Like you're a monster.
47:04Speaker 5But, so I've just started to do that because we were leaving to go on a little vacation that might be
47:09Speaker 5romantic in some sort, there'll be lots of pictures in a hot place.
47:14Speaker 51 month to really get in shape. I know, and I'm not taking really any testosterone or any other like performance enhancing supplements because I'm trying to make a baby, but watching 1 month,
47:24Speaker 4I know my body reacts really work. Yeah. So, yeah. So like, it's crazy because like hardcore dude, so 1 of things when I was doing the Retta and I added in the carbs was 1 of the reasons I also didn't like it and we'll know this because he knows me well, I am just crazy about my discipline, like, right? I just want to be, and when I started to do the Retta, I would bend on that discipline
47:46Speaker 4because I could do it. And then I started bending on it a little bit. And then I realized that I had bent so far that I was like eating, you know what I mean? Like, I know that might not mean anything to other people, but it does to me. Like, I just, I like to be in the zone of like, that's works well for me, dude. Like, and it's hard to get back there. I've been trying to get back ever since man. Like this morning I was like, I lifted out my house before because we gotta go. 3
48:09Speaker 4dude,
48:10Speaker 4my brain was like, eat some carbs, have some toast, some sourdough toast. Like, I didn't fold, but man, did I want to? It was a, it was a bitch though. Even in 1 day,
48:20Speaker 5there was such a mindset of
48:23Speaker 5I'm doing of restricting and that feels good
48:26Speaker 5and to know that like
48:29Speaker 5and, you know, you set set yourself a path and a goal and like, damn. I mean, for me, I have all I haven't really known mentally, like, how far I've let it go, but, like, every decision, not really every decision in my life, but, like, food decisions, you start making 1 bad decision, you're like, doesn't matter. Like, because I already meant that when, you know Comments. And it's just false. And then when you start making the right decisions, holy shit, do you feel more empowered and more energy? It's such a bigger
48:54Speaker 5problem to make the wrong decision
48:56Speaker 5for food, you know, food wise. It just is, I don't know. It's so uplifting and helpful
49:02Speaker 5every time you reinforce the right decisions,
49:05Speaker 5which I think is like a, you know, psychology
49:07Speaker 4101, but like,
49:09Speaker 5it is empowerment and it's, we don't, we don't
49:13Speaker 5realize how far I slip.
49:16Speaker 4Flip. They're all compounded little wins and little losses. That's why I always love the carnival because it
49:22Speaker 4is what you can eat. You can't eat all this. It's very simple. And if you do this, you get ripped. You do. It's that simple.
49:30Speaker 4Eventually for anybody that's thinking about it, like you will get ripped for 1 and 2,
49:35Speaker 4your taste buds will change. And then you do not crave the sugar, but it's definitely for sure. Definitely the sugar calls Oh, it
49:43Speaker 5yes. Yeah, absolutely. All right. Right on, I think I'm reading, has I not even read this yet? Sleep quality. Sleep quality. Hey guys, 42 year old woman who started my pipette journey about 5 weeks ago,
49:56Speaker 5Currently focused on fat loss and body recomp, super active and eat well with a focus on protein, good for you, as well as mitigating symptoms of perimenopause.
50:06Speaker 5Since starting my stack, my sleep quality has been consistently poor despite getting between 7 and 9 hours a night, and I'm hoping you may have some suggestions. My current stack is Reta 2 Migs once a week. BPC 500 micrograms
50:20Speaker 5each 5 times a week.
50:23Speaker 5Did I miss something?
50:24Speaker 5Anyway,
50:26Speaker 5well,
50:27Speaker 5GHK CU, 2 Migs,
50:30Speaker 55 times a week. SS-31MQ,
50:32Speaker 51 Mig each, 5 times a week. I take all of them in the morning except with the Retta, which I take in the evening. Here's an example of excellent
50:40Speaker 5of recent sleep score data from my Garmin watch for context. Duration, 9 hours, 16 minutes. Excellent stress
50:47Speaker 5excellent stress,
50:49Speaker 537 average.
50:51Speaker 5Poor deep 25
50:53Speaker 5minutes,
50:54Speaker 5poor light, 8 hours, 10 minutes for REM sleep, 41 minutes, poor awake, restlessness, 1
51:01Speaker 5hour, 30 minutes, 57
51:03Speaker 5restless moments. Jamming is this bad.
51:06Speaker 5Having very vivid dreams. I mean, which usually is kind of a good thing. Dreams nightly that are more often than not negative. They're more often than not negative in nature. I understand the importance of sleep recovery, I can't help but think this quality of sleep is hindering my results. I appreciate you guys.
51:22Speaker 5Time you take to help all of us in your community. Thanks in advance.
51:26Speaker 5Yo, that's cool. That's really
51:29Speaker 5good. And like, it's crazy
51:31Speaker 59 hours.
51:32Speaker 5You got 9 hours early.
51:34Speaker 5I
51:36Speaker 5don't think I'd do it. But
51:39Speaker 5yeah, like all of these numbers though, having 9 hours of sleep are all really bad, you know, like deep REM sleep, 45 minutes or something like that. Yeah. I was curious how you and I already answered this question the same. Now,
51:51Speaker 5so that all sucks. I have a sleep number bed just recently and like it gives you that sleep score. I'm actually surprised how well my score is. Good and how good my scores.
52:01Speaker 5For the amount of low, bad, like I don't,
52:05Speaker 5I wake up quite often
52:07Speaker 5and I don't get that many hours of sleep, but
52:10Speaker 5it gives me a good score, so I don't even know. But
52:13Speaker 5that's funny. Okay. Dreams
52:16Speaker 5usually so dreams is like when we we get into REM sleep and the fast, you know, rapid eye movement sleep,
52:21Speaker 5that's when we have dreams. Therefore,
52:24Speaker 5the fact that you're having dreams
52:27Speaker 5is usually a good thing because that means you're in REM and that's our recovery sleep. Now,
52:32Speaker 5the fact that they're bad dreams,
52:34Speaker 5you probably have some psychological things going on in your awake life, right, that like are manifesting in your dreams. And so,
52:42Speaker 5yeah, some like internal worries, which totally can contribute to bad sleep. But why don't you go ahead and tell them, tell us what you have the sleep issues. Well, I do know that I love that we talk about this because
52:53Speaker 4I didn't know how important sleep was. We all hear that until I really 3 started having problems. And then I had problems because of the lack of sleep that, so it's been
53:02Speaker 4a cool experience only from the standpoint of what I've learned studying from it. And it's been really eyeopening and I love when I hear people that are having these same problems because I can kind of at least pass on my knowledge,
53:13Speaker 4but here's something that kind of jumped out at me when you said this is you're tracking all this stuff. This is what it says,
53:19Speaker 4But if you pulled that out, would you think that you had good sleep? Yeah. Because you're sleeping a lot. So like, let's pull that out and stop looking at that. 1 of the things that I don't do anymore is I don't, my phone's by my bed. I don't look at the clock because if it's 3, I'm like, oh, should I go back to sleep or should I, and it's screwed with my head. So I don't turn that sucker over until I know I'm ready to get up. That's helped me. So maybe pull that sleep tracker thing out and you'll have, you'll have 9 to 7 hours or 7 to 9 hours sleep. You'll know that you did well because the answer is how do you feel? Do you feel rested?
53:48Speaker 4Are you, is your opinion being
53:50Speaker 4based upon the sleeper tracker?
53:53Speaker 4Because I think that's a big part of this equation.
53:55Speaker 4Now, are you eating too low calories?
53:57Speaker 4If, if what's helped for me, if I didn't if I don't if I'm not full and like, dude, what helped for me for a long time was like
54:05Speaker 4having a little bit of toast, like sourdough toast or like a little bit of oatmeal before I went to bed, that helped me sleep
54:10Speaker 4longer.
54:12Speaker 4So a little bit of carbs, which I don't recommend necessarily,
54:14Speaker 4but when you want to sleep, I do, you know?
54:18Speaker 4And make sure you're getting enough calories. You need to be hydrated, make sure you're drinking salt water,
54:23Speaker 4that stuff.
54:24Speaker 4And ultimately,
54:26Speaker 4if you want the protocol that's been passed on to me by 1 of our viewers, I wish you would see this again because I've asked numerous times if you'd hit me up on my DMs. It's glycine, it's magnesium,
54:37Speaker 4it's
54:38Speaker 4Valerian root,
54:40Speaker 4and a small amount of melatonin,
54:42Speaker 4slow release, and ashwagandha.
54:44Speaker 4Those
54:45Speaker 44
54:46Speaker 4have
54:47Speaker 4been radical for me.
54:51Speaker 4So maybe that will help you. But yeah, I would pull that tracker out for a week and see if that changes your mindset. Cause that could be just screwing with your head. So I don't look at my phone for a reason.
55:02Speaker 4So maybe troll that. I really think that you probably get better sleep than you think. You're just tracking it from that. So As far as the peptides go, like,
55:11Speaker 4DSIP. MOTS-1C,
55:12Speaker 5yeah, DSIP to add in.
55:15Speaker 5I would here's the thing. I would do some experiments.
55:19Speaker 5I agree with everything he said though too. Like imagine you didn't have the tracker, like, what would you think?
55:25Speaker 5I bet you did. I bet that's a big problem. Yeah, it could just be mind effing. Who knows? Maybe they think Garmin's not right. Now you're like I feel so rested. No, I don't. No, I don't. Oh, God tired. Right. But,
55:35Speaker 5so, but if this persists and you, let's say you don't feel good. Okay. You don't feel like you're getting restless sleep after 9 hours, that's a lot of sleep. You should have more than 45
55:43Speaker 5or 25 minutes of REM sleep. Like that's really bad.
55:47Speaker 5DSIP could help, but I would systematically
55:51Speaker 5pull peptides. So MOTS-3C
55:53Speaker 5can absolutely have some stimulating effects. Know you're only taking 1 mg,
55:57Speaker 5but and in the morning, which is you should, don't take any of these things later than 10AM,
56:01Speaker 5but, and same with SS-thirty 1, okay?
56:04Speaker 5But what if you're really sensitive and those are really still like, basically it sounds like if this is true, your nervous system is just not able to calm down again. Okay? That is what's happening.
56:14Speaker 5Now, perimenopause,
56:16Speaker 5high cortisol, that does that. I
56:19Speaker 5actually just reminded myself with my notes. So,
56:22Speaker 5negative
56:24Speaker 5vivid dreams is a sign of high cortisol.
56:27Speaker 5You will and they see it with people in with perimenopause
56:30Speaker 5and
56:31Speaker 5high level endurance athletes
56:34Speaker 5who, as we know, like longer than like an hour of constant exercise,
56:38Speaker 5your testosterone plummets,
56:39Speaker 5cortisol goes crazy. Right?
56:41Speaker 5Same reason why you see the same, like 5 old dudes in the gym playing basketball 3 times a week, they're all still fat.
56:49Speaker 5Like what the hell? These guys run their asses off. Right? Cause they're just, they're just doing, they're doing cardio, which is just increasing their cortisol and
56:57Speaker 5they're not lifting weights anyway. So that is common
57:01Speaker 5that negative sleep.
57:03Speaker 5Hey, perimenopause increasing cortisol. So you kind of already know this,
57:09Speaker 5but I would systemically drop them. I would try doing your Retta in the morning too. Agreed. I don't know.
57:14Speaker 5There really is no I mean, there's very few people feel the nausea, and that's the only reason to take it at is to avoid the nausea maybe.
57:21Speaker 5But, like, I don't think you're gonna get it, especially you've already been taking it. So I would try that in the morning, but I would systematically, like, watch see what happens. Like,
57:29Speaker 51st of all, I'd go read it in the morning. Alright?
57:32Speaker 5And
57:34Speaker 5do that for 2 weeks, see if it makes any difference.
57:36Speaker 5Then pull the MOTS-seed SS-thirty 1.
57:40Speaker 52 weeks, see if there's any difference.
57:43Speaker 5Add indeed do some of these small experiments on your own so you know what the problem is so you can figure it out immediately.
57:49Speaker 4Green.
57:50Speaker 5Everything natural supplement, he said, do it too. K. But That's that's great for you too. It's not nothing bad. No. It's not. Shit. I don't know how old you or 42 year old woman. You might even wanna add in some tiny little, like, low doses of testosterone.
58:04Speaker 5Watch
58:05Speaker 5how, that lowers your cortisol.
58:07Speaker 5Okay.
58:09Speaker 5Next. Yep. What's
58:11Speaker 4up, fellas? Thank you for all you guys are doing. The world needed you guys. I'll rad. Thank you. I have an odd question that hopefully you can answer for legal size.
58:21Speaker 4Do I, oh, that's
58:23Speaker 4the wrong 1, right? Yeah.
58:25Speaker 4Enjoy the podcast and your guys' conversations. Sorry about that. All right. So enjoy the podcast and you guys'
58:31Speaker 4trying to get my 72 year old parents
58:34Speaker 4on some peptides, but they're reluctant on injecting more than 2 times a day for now. Understandable.
58:40Speaker 4Can I combine SS-thirty 1 and Semax in 1 syringe for the morning and Clo and Tessa
58:46Speaker 4in 1 syringe for nighttime?
58:49Speaker 4For ease of them, I would pre fill all syringes for the whole week, 5 on 2 off. Would the peptide deficiency still be valid? Thanks in advance. I'll answer it because I do this often. Yeah, I do. I think so. Don't know if I was going answer this the same, but, I've done those and,
59:05Speaker 4I think that would be great because you want them to take these and you want to simplify life for your parents.
59:11Speaker 4So yes, absolutely.
59:13Speaker 4That's great. I think what you're doing for them, like I I've told my story, my old man would not take peptides until finally he gave in and he's like, that's it.
59:22Speaker 4And now he talks about peptides all the time. So it's kind of how it is, you know, 72 that's old. We're trying to kind of teach old dogs new tricks,
59:31Speaker 4but when they start feeling great, they're going to want to take more. It's kind of how it goes. But, my, my opinion is absolutely you can mix those and no, I don't think it's going to mess up the efficiency,
59:42Speaker 4in
59:43Speaker 4for a week. I think it's great. I think you're simplifying it and you're helping them simplify their life.
59:49Speaker 4I think it's amazing. Do it. Yep.
59:52Speaker 5Here is my only issue is, so I don't think that it will diminish
59:57Speaker 5the efficacy at all.
1:00:00Speaker 5Here's the only I have noticed is some of the GH peptides, right, and
1:00:05Speaker 5including growth hormone itself,
1:00:07Speaker 5when mixed with other peptides,
1:00:09Speaker 5sometimes
1:00:10Speaker 5turn cloudy immediately.
1:00:12Speaker 5If that's the case, then don't mix them.
1:00:15Speaker 5You might have to just mess this up 1 time and go, okay, I can't do that. The for an older person, that the the GHK-
1:00:23Speaker 5in the CLO might be really hard for them to take because of the sting. Yeah. You know? But you totally can mix no sting in there with the CLO and Tesamorelin.
1:00:33Speaker 5Right? That you can mix them same with the same carriers. In fact, you don't even need to. You can mix the Tesamorelin back to your static water. You can mix your clo with no sting.
1:00:41Speaker 5And then if you draw and draw,
1:00:45Speaker 5same thing, that
1:00:46Speaker 5that carrier reconstitution
1:00:48Speaker 5solution will not cause a problem because it works.
1:00:51Speaker 5The no stain works with anything.
1:00:53Speaker 5It's the acidic acid water that you don't wanna use
1:00:56Speaker 5on anything but what it's intended for.
1:01:00Speaker 5So I would do that to reduce the sting for the clo. You only know if you try it and they, and they, and it turns cloudy together.
1:01:10Speaker 5And frankly, I would do them all of these. You wouldn't know that in Tesa
1:01:14Speaker 5and Clo, instead of blue. You would know it. You would know it. You could still see it. You can still see it turn to cloud. I would say take out the Tesa and do HGH for your parents are getting old. I think HGH is gonna do way better than the Tesla for 72 year olds. That is true. And that 1 then you really don't wanna mix that with anything because it will turn cloudy.
1:01:31Speaker 5But
1:01:33Speaker 5I there's no problem. There's no competing pathway issue, so there's no efficacy issue. The only competing thing would be even if it just
1:01:41Speaker 5no. When mixing, it just
1:01:43Speaker 5turns different
1:01:44Speaker 5milky cloudy ness
1:01:47Speaker 5and technically fast. That's what I'm done. And go, alright, I can't do that anymore. Okay. But did yeah, none of those
1:01:54Speaker 5there would be no difference of you
1:01:57Speaker 5taking 5 syringes and injecting them all 1 x 1 right into you, and therefore there's no difference in just filling the syringe up. Your parents will not like it. All the time. And your parents won't like you other than that. It's not true. I think it's alright.
1:02:09Speaker 5Best friend was involved in a motorcycle accident a couple of years ago, which resulted in a lot of damage to his ankle. I heard this 1. Several surgeries later, some rods, etcetera. He's got a lot of scar tissue, constant swelling, and pain. Will BPC-2B
1:02:21Speaker 5help at all with injury that old? Did we answer this before? Like in past episodes? I think it's kind similar. I guarantee we have, but
1:02:29Speaker 4you want to go or I'll go? I think that it will help. Yes, absolutely. It will help and do it. Will help reduce the swelling, which causes pain. It's very worse. It's not going to hurt. So yeah. So he's not doing so well. Like, and how much do a lot. Yep.
1:02:42Speaker 5Especially the TB is great for old
1:02:45Speaker 5injuries that have stopped,
1:02:47Speaker 5that are chronic, that have stopped really trying to heal themselves. You're at an injury. It's so like nagging your body's just like, oh, screw it. I'm living like this. Yeah. Right? Sure. TB is the 1 thing that will actually kind of, like, wake that stuff up. Yep. Sending more regrowth
1:03:01Speaker 5signals in. Yes, do it.
1:03:03Speaker 5Alright. I'll read again. Have loved the discovering
1:03:06Speaker 5so have loved discovering
1:03:07Speaker 5the results peptides can bring. Cheetah.
1:03:10Speaker 5But this past weekend,
1:03:12Speaker 5this is a good 1. I found myself in the ER with anaphylactic reaction, about 5 minutes away from not breathing.
1:03:18Speaker 5Histamine rushing to my face, ears, and swelling tongue and throat.
1:03:21Speaker 5Hundred milligrams of Benadryl,
1:03:23Speaker 5Pepcid, and Epi shot later.
1:03:26Speaker 4Was
1:03:27Speaker 5it the 1 mg of Tesla I took about an hour before?
1:03:30Speaker 5For some context, I'm 8 weeks into an 8 week cycle of 1 mg daily.
1:03:34Speaker 5Also on Reta, 1 mg 3 times a week. Clomiphene,
1:03:38Speaker 525 mg 3 times a week. DHEA,
1:03:41Speaker 525 5 megs daily,
1:03:43Speaker 5little scared to take the Tesa bait. Yeah.
1:03:48Speaker 4Go ahead. Well,
1:03:51Speaker 4it's an hour before,
1:03:53Speaker 4cause what, like what I would ask you is how long after you took it did that happen?
1:03:57Speaker 4Because histamine like is almost like immediately.
1:04:01Speaker 4It's so scary that it's like a rocket ship because I've had, I've had it from CJC
1:04:06Speaker 4and my wife, I'll tell the story. It's
1:04:08Speaker 4like so fast that you can't even believe it that fast. It's like,
1:04:12Speaker 4so I think you said it's gonna cower Propel and then have been
1:04:16Speaker 0fitness water with Gatorade electrolytes,
1:04:19Speaker 00 sugar, and vitamins.
1:04:21Speaker 0Propel hydrates better than water water to help you get the most out of your workout and get back to your best self. What propels you? Propel with Gatorade Electrolytes.
1:04:31Speaker 2I get so many headaches every month. It could be chronic migraine 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more. Botox,
1:04:39Speaker 3Autobotulinum
1:04:40Speaker 3Toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Allergy doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.
1:05:24Speaker 2Why wait? Ask your doctor. Visit botoxchronicmigraine.com
1:05:27Speaker 2or call one-eight hundred-44Botox
1:05:30Speaker 2to learn more.
1:05:34Speaker 4Big chance it could be. Okay. The
1:05:36Speaker 4hour makes me kind of question that and it makes it a lot more gray. Did you change your diet that day? You know?
1:05:46Speaker 4So is there any other changes? You know, I don't think that you're going to ever fully know. There's definitely a big possibility. It could be the Tesa, but the hour long dude,
1:05:55Speaker 4that's
1:05:56Speaker 4definitely,
1:05:57Speaker 4definitely. And let's just say it as a Tesa. Should you do Tesa from there? No. If it is, no. Yeah. So, you know, Joe Brown was just on the podcast. He'd get in front of ours and, that same thing happened to him. He'd take Tesa for, he'd been taking it for a long time, loved it. And then almost overnight, it just stopped working. He had histamine response and he tried it again and it was even worse, which usually happens.
1:06:20Speaker 4Went to the ER, so it's kind of a big deal for dumb and say, could try it again and see what happens if it wasn't this bad.
1:06:27Speaker 4But that hour, dude, I don't know. That throws me off. I don't know if a histamine is like a meal. So also Tesamorelin
1:06:33Speaker 5by itself is not
1:06:35Speaker 5a common culprit of histamine reaction. Not impossible.
1:06:39Speaker 4Yeah. But people like it's- But like Tesamorelin
1:06:41Speaker 5is not usually the same. Yeah.
1:06:45Speaker 5It's like CJC is way more likely. I agree. So JD's have said this before, like his wife did CJC 1 time
1:06:51Speaker 5whack and goes, walked into his room and said, I don't feel very good. What's wrong? And he's like, what in the hell is wrong with you? Like her lips were all swell up. She was red swelling like that. And that was her very 1st time using it. So this stuff does happen, but dude, 1st of all, I guess we're really happy you're alive and like made it. And that was as soon as like you had a serious,
1:07:11Speaker 5anaphylactic reaction,
1:07:13Speaker 5to something, but it is odd. An hour usually doesn't take until maybe- Check out the food. Did you take any What
1:07:20Speaker 5else did you Anything in that day that you took that's outside of the norm was I would say- Anything else that you took, this is not what you told us, right? And not even like medication, anything, food, something unique. Do you go hiking? I don't know. Do you like
1:07:35Speaker 5rub up against something? I would, you know,
1:07:38Speaker 5yeah,
1:07:39Speaker 5try it again. Like if you got an EpiPen right here on the table,
1:07:44Speaker 5want It's to try the scary test though, run I on saw my wife like that dude, it was gnarly.
1:07:49Speaker 4Dude, I
1:07:51Speaker 4would like I've said it before, I would not have believed it. If she tried to explain it to me if I wasn't there, I would not have believed what I saw. And I did research right after because I was like, holy shit.
1:08:00Speaker 4And like if your
1:08:02Speaker 4throat starts to feel like it's closing up, you go to the hospital. Yeah. Because that's not. Yeah, the airway is not something to So mess
1:08:09Speaker 4do it. There's no coming back. I would say my opinion, you can give me yours. I wouldn't probably do the test since you went to the ER. I don't, I don't, I am super 50 50 if it was a Tesla because of the hour. Yeah.
1:08:21Speaker 5And it's just not likely an hour. And I don't know how long you've been doing these things, but like, have you taken any of these other ones before?
1:08:29Speaker 5Right? Maybe it's maybe allergic to I mean, people can just be randomly allergic. People can be allergic to sunlight. So you can someone can be allergic to homophene, but if you're allergic to it, it would have hit you the 1st time you took it. So what's the 1st any of these things was it for the 1st time?
1:08:43Speaker 5Were they but but they would work
1:08:46Speaker 5like fast,
1:08:47Speaker 5like anaphylactic shock would happen. You
1:08:50Speaker 5can I would I mean, dude, that's honestly, that's concerning? It's scary. You can totally go to like an allergist
1:08:56Speaker 5that they do that pinprick panel on you,
1:08:59Speaker 5and they go, alright. What are you allergic to? And then they see it. They go, alright. What did you react to? It's probably worth it, dude, man. Be completely honest with them about what you took, what you're taking.
1:09:11Speaker 5Do that.
1:09:12Speaker 5I'm gonna do a little research, dude, because, like, you you don't wanna be just scared of some things that's your whole life and and you figure out that it's because you ate some a peanut butter sandwich
1:09:21Speaker 4or something, you know, at the same time and that's the actual culprit. Now you just don't take anything out, any peptides.
1:09:28Speaker 4Right?
1:09:29Speaker 4Getting a real answer. All right. Yeah. All right. You'll fellas, new follower here. I'm 34 years old and have been dealing with chronic coughs since 2013.
1:09:37Speaker 4The doctor's been dicking me around. For example, I never had any reflux symptoms and scope came back clear, but they still put me on a PPI,
1:09:47Speaker 4saying it was causing my
1:11:28Speaker 4Antibiotics suck. I am a huge I
1:11:31Speaker 4think they mess up our gut.
1:11:33Speaker 4I've taken in the past a lot of them, and I think that has been the culprit for myself.
1:11:40Speaker 4We're going to have Doctor. Scott on here again soon because
1:11:44Speaker 4know, there's a lot of people listen to this podcast and have gone to him since. He's, I want him to give a really bird's eye view of what he's seen in the stool tests and in the blood work, because he's done a lot lately. And
1:11:55Speaker 4I would like him to kind of break that down on what he's seeing. And he's just seeing a lot of gut problems, man. He's my wife. I think 0.5 our office is seeing him.
1:12:04Speaker 4So I think it's your gut,
1:12:06Speaker 4you know? So try that protocol and I'd get off the antibiotics, dude. The antibiotics suck. They do nothing. Yep. If you're dying, get on antibiotics. Other than that, don't take them. Yeah, I 2nd that. If you wanna message in and like ask us,
1:12:18Speaker 5like slower
1:12:20Speaker 5that protocol,
1:12:22Speaker 5please do. Cool. We got 2 more. Alright. Recently started listening to your podcast and I love the info. Super informative. Recently started Reta about 3 weeks ago. Context, I'm 32 of 3 kids and a year postpartum from my 3rd.
1:12:35Speaker 5Started at 167
1:12:38Speaker 5pounds with a goal weight of 145
1:12:40Speaker 5to 150.
1:12:41Speaker 5Wait, what? Oh, yeah. Never mind. I'm down 4 to 5 pounds
1:12:47Speaker 5and just went up to 1 mega a week.
1:12:51Speaker 5I weight train 3 to 4 times a week consistently. Also getting into running 1 or 2 days a week for heart health because I'm a cardiology APRN.
1:13:00Speaker 5So
1:13:01Speaker 5gotta take care of that.
1:13:03Speaker 5Yep. I've been thinking of introducing Tesa at Naidell, burn stubborn postpartum
1:13:08Speaker 5belly fat. Have heard mixed reviews on Tesa for women thoughts and doses to start out. Oh yeah.
1:13:15Speaker 5I think cardiology APRN is something, something registered nurse.
1:13:20Speaker 5So you
1:13:21Speaker 5should be walking the walk good for you. There's nothing worse than like the health
1:13:26Speaker 5director being for 3 50 pounds and telling everybody how to be healthy. Right? Like,
1:13:32Speaker 4I was doing the fitness stuff, I, the people would say, my doctor said this. I said, let me ask you This is a real question. Is your doctor in shape? No.
1:13:41Speaker 4Why isn't he doing it then?
1:13:43Speaker 4Know what I mean?
1:13:44Speaker 5Change doctors. So like, good for you. That's cool. So
1:13:48Speaker 5I think maybe my prior answer about Tesamorelin
1:13:52Speaker 5and Retta might answer your question.
1:13:55Speaker 5I think that it's a great thing to do.
1:13:59Speaker 5I have no I absolutely think you should start Tesamorelin.
1:14:03Speaker 5I don't know where I've heard mixed reviews on Tesamorelin.
1:14:06Speaker 5I think like the Tesa 10 mg, 3 mg blend,
1:14:10Speaker 5you know, Tesa Ipah,
1:14:11Speaker 510 mgs to 3 mgs of Ipah, is it maybe a good good point for you starting I'd start off. So like, look,
1:14:19Speaker 5the 1 thing that we see is
1:14:22Speaker 5growth hormones increase too high levels, go too high, too fast, people start to retain water, especially women.
1:14:29Speaker 5So start off low, man. Start off at, you know,
1:14:33Speaker 5I think low is 500 micrograms
1:14:35Speaker 5of Tessa
1:14:37Speaker 5daily.
1:14:37Speaker 5If you want to be more conservative, start with 2 50 micrograms.
1:14:42Speaker 5Do that for a week or 2 and slowly titrate yourself up.
1:14:47Speaker 5And you may end, depends on where you end. I don't know. That's up to you, but I'd be looking to end, be a sweet spot somewhere between 1 mill 0.5 of a milligram and 1 mg of Tesamorelin daily.
1:14:59Speaker 5My previous answer
1:15:00Speaker 5kind of answered the timing Yeah. Question.
1:15:04Speaker 5But yeah, do it and good for you. I guarantee with the amount of activity you do and your knowledge, that's going to kick ass and work really well. 0 Yeah. I'm gonna answer a little bit differently.
1:15:14Speaker 4I think that the key here is what you said right in the beginning was recently started Retta about 3 weeks ago. I would say give it some time, man. Like you didn't gain any of all this weight at 1st. Why don't you give the Retta some time to kind of kick into 5th gear? I think that the Testa is great. I think you should add it, but maybe wait a little bit because of that. And, then I would add on some AOD on top of the Tesa when you do do it. But let the Retatrut, like, let the Retatrut you're not you're not even in 2nd gear yet, man. You've done it for 3 weeks. Well, also you just increased to 1 mg of Retatrutide weekly. And that's nothing. That's like the what's our clinical start dose? 2 mesh or 2.5? And like you're not, you just increased to 0.5 of the starting dose. Right.
1:15:53Speaker 4So if you do that for like, let's try like 2 months and kind of maybe go up a little bit and Reta is going to burn that fat off.
1:15:59Speaker 4I mean, cause the objective is when we want to feel great and we love peptides, duh,
1:16:04Speaker 4but we also
1:16:06Speaker 4love the foundation of a healthy human, which is not having to take
1:16:11Speaker 4red stuff.
1:16:12Speaker 4So like you are 32, if you were like 45, it might be a different answer, but I think you give the rut to do what it do. And maybe increase the dose a little bit. Yeah. That's it. Then
1:16:23Speaker 4add that stuff in because you're gonna, you're gonna see results. You're gonna want to add in more peptides and maybe you don't need to test it. Maybe you try some SS-31or
1:16:30Speaker 4something different, NAD.
1:16:31Speaker 4So anyways, that was my answer. Went a little bit different. That was very good. Let's Last 1, meant to me. Yeah. All right. So I'm take this home because we gotta get on a plane.
1:16:39Speaker 4Hello, 64
1:16:40Speaker 4kg female here. I weight trained 5 times per week,
1:16:46Speaker 4have a decent amount of muscle, but still
1:16:49Speaker 4not as lean as I would like, especially around my stomach and arms and legs. I find food noise and overeating,
1:16:55Speaker 4especially when I'm eating
1:16:57Speaker 4my non meal prepped tracked meals,
1:17:01Speaker 4family meals, dinners out, etcetera. I'm going to start Retta, but I'm not sure on the dosage as,
1:17:07Speaker 4and also long term plan. I don't want to be on it forever. And I'm scared about weaning off gaining all the weight back. I don't want to lose a lot of weight as my frame is still relatively small. I want to keep my muscle and I don't want to know. I don't want people
1:17:22Speaker 4to notice I'm on peptides.
1:17:25Speaker 4I just want to lean out a little bit to be more confident in my clothes at the gym. Thanks so much for your podcast. It's awesome.
1:17:33Speaker 4Love it. Let me close this up. Yeah, go ahead. Don't
1:17:37Speaker 4know if Will would answer this the same,
1:17:40Speaker 4but
1:17:42Speaker 4I'm to be direct with you. I'm sorry. It's me.
1:17:45Speaker 4If you have to hide anything, I don't think you should do it. You seem a little stressed about it, so give this some time. Maybe you
1:17:51Speaker 4can accomplish your goal by just being old school and not having to take anything. The
1:17:57Speaker 4discipline
1:17:59Speaker 4works.
1:18:00Speaker 4Now you have a problem with discipline, you said that, but
1:18:04Speaker 4discipline is empowering.
1:18:06Speaker 4And that's why I was just telling you about a couple of questions back, when I'm off my discipline, I don't like it. I like to be focused and my best version and discipline is that key to it.
1:18:16Speaker 4So you can achieve it. But again, I think if you have to hide it, I don't think you should take it because, you know, when we have people all the time, don't tell anybody I want testosterone,
1:18:24Speaker 4give me that back.
1:18:26Speaker 4You don't deserve this. You know what I mean? Like, if you're going hide stuff,
1:18:30Speaker 4don't hide anything, man. That's, that's a form of lying and that's, I just don't like that. So I hope that that doesn't offend you because I'm just being real with you.
1:18:38Speaker 4Because you seem a little, little timid about it. I would give it some time, old school 1st. Retta will always be here. And if you're ready to tell people you're on Retta, then maybe take the Beta. We'll tell you the dosage then.
1:18:49Speaker 5I,
1:18:50Speaker 5yes, I 2nd everything there. Here's the thing, like, honestly, the the worry about, oh, it'll stop and all the weight comes gaining back is like What if? What if? What if? If you're
1:19:02Speaker 5if you do it completely ass backwards wrong, that will happen, but, like, that's manageable. Yeah. I can tell you that it's totally manageable. It's like people doing, don't know, doing steroids, like, oh, steroids, I can do. Yeah. But if you do testosterone or testosterone, like, the right way and not just be a complete dumbass about it, like, you can do it safely. Yes. So same thing with Retta, like, if you so choose,
1:19:24Speaker 5you can just be very you can be smart on how you get off of it and it will not come all the way. It won't come rushing back. The brilliance of Retta is it's not you can you can you keep your appetite, you keep your muscle, you keep eating.
1:19:37Speaker 5Right? And so, and and if you do start, just start ultra low. Yeah. Right?
1:19:43Speaker 5Start ultra low. And when it's time to wean off, literally wean off, know, just stop.
1:19:48Speaker 5Okay.
1:19:49Speaker 5And if you'd never even go really high, then that weight gain, it can Like the Red is like is the training wheels. It is not the bicycle, right? The bicycle
1:19:59Speaker 5is your
1:20:00Speaker 5workout and your discipline and your food. Right?
1:20:03Speaker 5It's all the real things that we always talk about. That's it. Reddit is just the little training wheel thing. Gotta ease that along and to get you over some humps and get you there and use it as such.
1:20:15Speaker 5But I also agree
1:20:16Speaker 5either
1:20:18Speaker 4fuck it, tell people. Mean, own it. Don't hide it and own it. Everyone's on Retta. I know. Anyway, the people you're probably hiding it from or hiding it from you. Don't
1:20:27Speaker 4Don't tell Don't tell her. There's the 1 person that's admitting it. They're like, yep, he's, everybody's on it.
1:20:33Speaker 5Like, look, I actually looked at the stat the other day we're talking about. So 24% of the population in West Virginia is on a GLP-one. That's including children?
1:20:42Speaker 4Oh, man.
1:20:43Speaker 5I mean, children aren't on it, but that that that that statistic. Oh, that's in that statistic. They're
1:20:48Speaker 5included in the 20 so like, right. Wow. So if we look at that, you know, I don't know what the population of children is, but maybe 30%
1:20:55Speaker 5of the total population is a child. And so therefore,
1:20:59Speaker 5that 25% now probably goes to 50% of everybody. And now it's West Virginia. We talked about this as a follow-up to, I think, you know, I said that
1:21:06Speaker 5that's,
1:21:08Speaker 5yeah. But everybody
1:21:10Speaker 5is on the damn GLP ones.
1:21:12Speaker 5It depends on where you live. Nobody
1:21:14Speaker 5is going to judge you. We're, we're,
1:21:16Speaker 4we had 2 guys that are ripped. They're on Reddit. It's amazing
1:21:19Speaker 5compounding like, and fuck. If you got some religious thing, I don't know. You know, we don't know you, but like,
1:21:26Speaker 5you're right. I guarantee you that you're lying to people and they're lying back to you. Yeah.
1:21:31Speaker 5Tell somebody that balls be like, you know just need some honest friends. I'm on the honest too. And everybody's like, I am too. It's the most amazing thing. And then everybody enlightens and everything gets better and now everybody's happier. Tiffany's on Retatrut honey.
1:21:43Speaker 4No shit. Yeah. Yeah.
1:21:45Speaker 4No, that was cool, man. It was fun. We love you guys. We appreciate all the kind words.
1:21:49Speaker 4Yeah, man. We love we love doing this. It's it's a blast that we get to sit down and have a piece of you guys and get to touch you guys in a form. Questions are great. So join school, get onto the newsletter. We're gonna continue to keep compounding a lot of the stuff that we try to give to you guys, and we gotta get on a flight. So we will catch you next time.
