1:44Speaker 2well, yeah, he's not too mobile. Like, he isn't gonna come up here, but we did talk about he wants to think about relocating down here. Yeah, you said that. And
1:54Speaker 2cool. That'll be a pain in the ass. But, you know, you, I was a bigger pain in the ass than you have been to me so far in my life. Right? Because I was, he had to change my diapers as a little kid and that's a big pain in the ass and expensive. So I will repay the favor. It's crazy how our parents are getting that age.
2:15Speaker 2you know, your parents were like the rock, right? They were strong and they could do everything. They could fix everything. They always had their shit together, whether they didn't, they probably didn't, right? Because they feel like us, but you thought they did. They sure did more than us as a kid. And there comes a point where as you grow up, there comes a point that they
2:38Speaker 2now as I am and, uh-oh, they need some help maybe. And there's a worry there. It's kind of an intro. I definitely like noticed that and felt that when that happened. Life comes full circle. Yeah, it does.
3:03Speaker 0be put in an uncomfortable position. If not, then it's not really helping somebody. Like,
3:15Speaker 2helping them move, dude. And like, that's the point. If, like they say in our program, right? If this is not an inconveniencing
3:30Speaker 0was it Sunday? Yeah. Saturday, the day before. And like we, he went to Jackson's jujitsu. That was awesome. Then we all went to breakfast and my daughter came with her
3:40Speaker 02 daughters, so my 2 granddaughters. And so I have my whole family. It was cool. We gave him 1 of those
3:51Speaker 0You know what I mean? He loves that stuff. It's cool. But yeah, they're getting old dude. My dad's getting old. He
3:57Speaker 0just like we are shit. Gonna be 49 in like a week. I'm heading to Cabo on Sunday for my birthday,
4:07Speaker 0say we're traveling now. I am, I'm traveling the next week and then the phase of the following week.
4:16Speaker 0Will's going to Italy. Going to Italy after. He's making it a trip. Making it a whole trip. Cool. Are you guys in Expensive
4:22Speaker 0trip. Yeah. Well that, there's nothing like that, like that traveling that far. It's like an expensive trip. Like peak time with no notice. Right? Like we just decided to do this
4:44Speaker 2so do it. No doubt. Just do it while we're there and it's cool. Do you, are you guys like,
4:50Speaker 0will you go like check out all the hotspots of of, like, Italy and stuff? Are you that type of people? Are you just like, can you say you will and you won't like my wife and I? No. No. I'm actually very realistic about this. Like, I set low expectations
5:02Speaker 2and I do not here's what I hate doing on vacation. It's like dry is transit during the day. Yeah. It's like transit time. I'm not driving 4 hours Yeah. To go see something for an hour and then 4 hours back. That's the absolute worst. So here is the plan. We're so we're go to Prague. We're gonna stay Friday night, leave Saturday night,
5:33Speaker 2Across a little land bridge, there's a point here, but it's really all the Amalfi Coast, but
5:39Speaker 2Sorrento is a little bit more relaxed. Positano is where the action is, but so we're gonna stay 2 days there.
5:44Speaker 0I probably will propose to her at that point. Sweet. Just to get it out of the damn way. Yeah. Might be thinking about the whole time, wait bro. Till Italy.
6:00Speaker 2which isn't that long of a boat ride. It's like a private would take like a private boat ride to Capri,
6:05Speaker 2spend the day there. It's just a little island, whatever. Maybe I'll propose to her there. I need to go ask the hotel plus this 1st hotel is like, like 5 star, like full service. I will literally go there and say, Hey, do you guys have a photographer or somebody to suggest or something like that that can take the pictures of this. So
6:23Speaker 2live in luxury for 2 nights. Then we, then we're to either boat across or take the 5 minute and highway drive to Positano where we're staying right in the middle of everything for
6:34Speaker 0or 5 nights. Cool. That sounds fun. Walkable at all like restaurants and stuff. Absolutely.
6:44Speaker 2we're staying in a hotel that isn't so funny. Like all of these are built into a cliff, right? So some of them are like, it's 800 steps to get to your hotel room every day. Right? That's a lot, even though it'd probably be good for us. But,
6:56Speaker 2we're staying at 1 that is not I mean, they're all expensive, but it's kind of on the side, it's overlooking the beach, and it's right there in the middle of everything. What we have realized going on vacations is we would rather stay in a hotel that
7:23Speaker 2all the actions going on instead of being just secluded out there. And then, cause if you're secluded out there, shit.
7:35Speaker 0Which is you, watch TV. So, right. It's in Italian. I don't even know what they're saying.
7:40Speaker 2So that was, so that's gonna be fun. And then, so 4 days there, then we fly to or train or whatever to Lake Como.
7:54Speaker 2That's right Northern tip, Lake Como. Gorgeous. It's long and it is gorgeous. Everything's freaking gorgeous. Stay there for 3 nights. That's more like chill,
8:01Speaker 2relaxing. The Amalfi Coast is going to be energetic and like beach. Yeah, decompressed where you stayed from. Last, yeah, exactly.
8:16Speaker 0Gotta tell you, I've known a long time. We were always wondering if that day would come and it's, you know, when he started dating Allie, they dated before and
8:23Speaker 0then they broke up for a while with the, yeah, that's something that was different when you,
8:30Speaker 0I don't remember the conversation, but you maybe, I think you asked me something or somehow we were on the conversation how,
8:36Speaker 0you know, cause I had that same issue, like I would keep bringing arms length for whatever reason. And then,
8:45Speaker 0enough to the degree where like that wall that you don't even know is there, a protection that you don't even know is there to protect yourself that you put up. And then it's just easy. You just realize you can be with somebody for the rest of your life when you're at an age where it's like, dude, like I'm boring and it's great. Absolutely. I think I had to get older. There's no way. Nothing wrong with that dude. There's no way I could have gotten married at 24
9:07Speaker 2or something. You know what I mean? I just wasn't like Well, you can't like most people when they get divorced.
9:17Speaker 2So you know what? I remember the conversation you said, look, when you meet a girl, right, there's this honeymoon period about 4 months or so. We're like, oh, she's awesome, awesome. And then you kind of settle in
9:26Speaker 2and then you go, oh, shoot, I'm kind of sick of you. Right? And you had told me just like ride that out. I did. I remember that. I was surprised you remember that. Yeah, I do remember. I did. Absolutely. I think that was really Then I broke up with Alyssa. Yeah.
9:40Speaker 2And and I guess, you know, I needed a lot of life experience. Right? I needed to compare things.
9:58Speaker 2she still does it for me, like, sexually. Right? This is super important. It is important. For sure. She checks all the boxes that I needed, like there's nothing and she and almost most uniquely, she does not check, doesn't do anything or nothing about her.
10:12Speaker 0Bugs you. That bugs me. You just can't stand. Right? There's always that. That's always happened where it's like, oh, I just there's no way I can deal with that for the rest of my life. Yeah, I get it. Yeah. That's, that's, yeah, I get it. I like, well, like it's funny because like we were gone. I think I don't know if I'd said this already, but we were gone and like, I was looking for a break because my kids are nuts and I love them, but they're crazy.
10:32Speaker 0But dude, then you like, you just, when you're anywhere, you're almost like you're 0.5 there because your bride becomes like, there is something sacred about, when you say I do, I swear to God, you will notice it. It does change
10:45Speaker 0in your head. I don't care about the ring or nothing. I have my tattooed, but like it's
10:49Speaker 0it changes. I've been married twice and it does. It's sacred dude and she's your bride and like a man's job protect her till death. You know what I mean? So you'll feel it, man. It's different than just living with a gal. Yeah. Absolutely.
11:02Speaker 2And we were talking about this at dinner. It's like, gosh, it's getting kind of old. Like, we're old, we're too old, or we've been together too long. It just feels awkward to tell people like, oh, I'm waiting for my girlfriend.
11:13Speaker 0You know what I'm saying? Well, then you start saying to finance your fiance. Fiance is a That sounds weird too though, like you 1st, because you're changing like, I'm my fiance, but then that, and then when you say you're, I say bride. I just always said bride for some reason. I heard somebody say that and it just stuck.
11:29Speaker 0we've, yeah, I don't know. I'm excited 1 about Were 2 guys, I guess, who were, I gosh, for lack of a better way to say it, womanizers.
11:36Speaker 0I mean, let's just call it what it is, you know, not like we're proud of it, but it is what it is. I never thought that,
11:42Speaker 0like truthfully never thought that what I had with my wife existed. Like, didn't think I could be with 1 woman and just be, I've been with her almost 14 years. August is 14 years and like, dude, I fall more in love with her. I mean, my wife is gym,
12:06Speaker 2I don't fight because I don't drink with her. Once in a while it's like a fight, but it's like a tiny. So that does help. And I'll get jealous and nobody does anything to cause jealousy because we don't drink. Mostly. I mean, not mostly, like we just don't. So her and I are totally not like that,
12:20Speaker 2which is which is a fucking 100% must. Yeah. She's always asked me, like, can I go to Vegas or whatever with my family? Yeah. Fuck it. There you go.
12:30Speaker 2Like, you know, most guys apparently are like, no, what are you wearing? Oh gosh. Just give him shit. I'm
12:43Speaker 2horrible. So yeah, there's that. And then everybody who came in and visited us on Friday,
12:54Speaker 0man, it was just cool to like meet people to the degree where like somehow along the way, whatever, you know, the channels we have is touch some people's souls. That guy that came from, I think it was Montana and he got his kids. Like, you weren't there when he said this, but he's like, you guys saved me. Like, I just wasn't living up to like the man that I was supposed to be. And he's like, I've just been listening to you guys. Like, that stuff is powerful, dude. That was organic. He came in our hat and like the cutoff shirt, the JD's way, I cut his son's shirt.
13:20Speaker 0Oh dude, it was so cool. So like, that stuff, if you listen to what most of probably are, if you guys listen, man, it meant the world to us.
13:28Speaker 2you know, it's just so cool. TB-30s is cool. Then we had a guy come in, I'm sorry dude, I forgot your name, but I guarantee you're watching because he's seen, he knew everything. And I won't even tell any details about you, but you know who you are if you're listening. He and his wife and his buddy were here. Right? And I told him, yeah, I'm gonna do the proposal. And she's like, tell him about how you proposed to me. Uh-oh.
13:52Speaker 2We get married. Okay. Let's go. Yeah. He basically, like, had the ring ready to do it and he was just nervous. Yeah. At the restaurant, didn't do it. Then they went to go walk on the boardwalk
14:02Speaker 2and he was so nervous and he just couldn't do it. Then they sat in the car and apparently it goes and he just they sat down and he's like, I just gotta do it. He just opened the box. He goes, you wanna marry me? Or like, will you marry he goes, will you marry me if you want to? She
14:21Speaker 0Dude, well, I was gonna tell you because I figured you know this, but like, this is a state of the office. Get on your knee, dude.
14:27Speaker 0Gotta get on your knee. It's old school stuff, but like, dude, trust me. You gotta get on your knee. But you know what? But I know they like him. Like,
14:33Speaker 2I knew Alyssa was gonna say yes. Is nerve racking, dude. Like, was nobody around on the beach either. And like, I was like, oh man. Especially in pub I mean, that's what scared me too. But yes, I will do that. Be prepared. This guy who had just told the story, like, I it's funny is the good thing about that story is Yes. Well, she said yes. And he well, he did say, y'all made up for it, like, 5 years later. Like, I got her a new a brand new ring, like, in secret, a new ring where we put the old ring on her necklace. But the thing is like, at least
15:06Speaker 2I better stand up to my word. Right? And that makes it all the more nervous. Right? People who aren't very nervous are just like, well, fuck it. I'll just ask her this. Sacred bro. I'll cut it off when I feel like it. So
15:27Speaker 0Get on knee. It will be great. You'll be near everybody. So you'll be fine. She'll say yes. Just can't have feeling- Before
15:41Speaker 0came. It was awesome. Get on school. As you can see in some of these questions, people are talking about school, the community that we are
15:58Speaker 0glad that we're able to kind of touch some of your souls and you do touch our souls as well. Now, we also want to introduce our new producer, who's been basically a producer, but she got the fit that we gave her the actual nod. I think it was yesterday.
16:11Speaker 0She is the actual, our new producer. It's her new tag, and she has been amazing. And she's behind the boards and doing all the crazy stuff, making us sound good, making us look good. That's hard. But
16:24Speaker 0And her name is Brandy. Brandy. Yeah, I'll her B, but Ms. She brings me tea, she brings us, she takes care of us like we are like her sons. We call it well, you it's mama b as your tag. But,
16:36Speaker 2yeah, we got a good crew, dude. So, something special going on and, everybody feels it. So And that leaves an opening, actually, anybody who may be interested. But, like, Will now needs an assistant.
17:00Speaker 2Local, has to here. Local, you gotta be here. 100%. Yep. We are looking for somebody like right now. Yeah. I'm for somebody right now. And also another thing came up, we do not everybody if anybody's curious, like the guests that come on our show, they're not paid.
17:15Speaker 0I don't know why. So that came up. It's just important. Like, we don't pay anybody to- Yeah, I don't think, I don't know if it's like typical that I've never been paid on the podcast, but hey.
17:23Speaker 0Anyways, yeah, well you get a lot of notoriety because there's 500,000 people- Yeah. That will see you a lot.
17:29Speaker 2So We we got a guest coming up soon that it'll be, I'm looking forward to. And you know what? I have some other, we were talking about asking him questions.
17:45Speaker 2what does his assistant do? Like early on, like that's the question. I have a lot of questions like that. Dude, like even
17:52Speaker 0family members and stuff now, like I'm like so OCD and like, so like I would, I didn't even like having like the red little tag that said that I had a text. Would just OCD me, but then I got so many damn text messages that I just stopped looking at my text messages. So now like they build up and I like don't even look at my phone. So like really, you never texted me back. I'm like, oh shoot, I forgot. Like, that it's becoming now the opposite. I can look at my phone. You can turn your ringer's never on.
18:18Speaker 2Because I just can't do it. It's making me literally crazy. Good problem, Sam. Alright.
18:23Speaker 2That's getting kicked off the Q and A. Is rocking and rolling. Let's go. Number 1, I'm 47 and have an appointment with my doc this week to discuss starting TRT.
18:38Speaker 2I know these numbers are in range, but it would be nice to feel fully optimized. I lift 4 days a week, basketball 4 hours a week, 12,000 steps a day, meticulously track macros, etcetera. I wanna start TRT just to feel better
18:51Speaker 2overall and get the most out of the work I am putting in, but I'm hesitant because 2 reasons. I do not want my hair to fall out. K? Mind you, I'm already on minoxidil,
19:07Speaker 2So I am already doing everything possible to keep my hair at my age. My hair looks good, but I personally noticed the front is getting a little thinner. I'm afraid TRT might speed that up. I'm not sure if it would mess with my natural test considering my numbers aren't bad for 47 years old. Any advice would be appreciated. I'm so torn on what I should do. Yeah,
19:37Speaker 2so 1st of all, people at 47, your hair starts to fall out. Okay? It's what I Younger people, if they start tests, if you are predisposed
19:45Speaker 2to, like, male pattern baldness, your hair will fall out a lot faster. If you're not, sometimes your hair grows faster. But then when you get a little bit older at 47,
19:54Speaker 2my guess is if you start test, but it's gonna thin out and it just, it might accelerate it a little bit. Yeah. But the TRT, the amount of tests that you actually need to take
20:11Speaker 2to really feel a lot to feel a lot better. And I would agree, like 500 is good for 47. I mean, it's not great, but it's it's only in range and it's actually kind of probably clear, but you sure will feel a lot better adding a little bit more in. Now that
20:25Speaker 2doctor, good luck having the doc, you better go to 1 of these clinics with doctors who are experienced and prescribe on symptoms and not
20:38Speaker 2or anything like that, it's not a private practice with these, they're not going to give you anything. You just So you're high. You just yeah. You don't fit the mold there.

22:03Speaker 2Yeah, I don't know, dude. Like, you can get an air transplant later if you don't like it. We got a guy.
22:11Speaker 2you, I would, you know, you'll do so you'll do so little. I mean, if it was me and I guess I am me and I have done this, like, I would do the test
22:19Speaker 2and, but at very low dose. Like you probably could just almost start off with like 50 to 100 mg
22:26Speaker 2see what happens. Super low. Super duper low. And it may not affect your hair, but like bro, it's thinning
22:37Speaker 2that would actually, that's a really low dose. I'd be curious to see what that did to your numbers.
22:44Speaker 2Super low. But he's overrated at 5. Like if he wants to get it to like 8, that just might do it because his testicular function is very good. Now,
23:07Speaker 2while running tests. Plus that's such a low dose. It all depends, man. You the more you run, the faster it shuts you down. Right? The longer you run this Yeah. The more you're gonna get shut down. So,
23:22Speaker 2you'll be shut down a little less than those people and you'll probably bounce back faster, but you are getting older and they're bounced back for everybody no matter what declines
23:34Speaker 0So I'll only answer it from my perspective because I'm me, like what was just said, I'm not as worried about that. I've been running testosterone for a long time. I'd rather feel really good than my hair's the 2nd seat to that. But you are you and I'm me. I always look at it like, how do you feel?
23:50Speaker 0Like in re let's like the hair thing you're going to have to deal with yourself. It could thin it out. It might not. I don't think it will be that bad,
23:58Speaker 0but it could. So you'll have to deal with that 1. In regards to the testosterone 1, I would do it at 47.
24:09Speaker 0I think you'll feel better. How's your energy? How's your libido? How is your motivation? How's your strength? How's your sleep? Those things will all improve
24:18Speaker 0for sure. And to me, are extremely important. So they take the top seat over. Should I might, know, lose my hair?
24:30Speaker 0then wait a little bit because there will be a time that you need it. If you don't have those kick in and you think that you can improve on, would personally do it myself. You deal with hair issue yourself, my brother. I also noticed like doing a secretagogue or actual HGH,
24:55Speaker 2I would, that's something to try to maybe, maybe even 1st, if you're really that worried about the hair, it might 3 just make you feel better and really enhance and make you more, more full
25:07Speaker 0usually from the HGH. That's generally happens for a lot of people, but you ride it out. And then, because we've said it, it's a longer play, but HGH,
25:29Speaker 0GLP-1s to help with health issues and I lost 40 pounds in 4 months plus another 15 on my own afterwards.
25:43Speaker 0losing another 20 pounds in 2 months. I'm very active, eat clean due to stomach issues and was also taking Semax,
26:02Speaker 0I'm unsure if that's the best fit. My main goal is gut healing and reducing inflammation.
26:24Speaker 2Great question. That's a good 1. You want to take it? Go ahead. But I will also add on at the end. You, you I
26:31Speaker 0would like to know what your autoimmune is. You're very it's a very common thing for people to deal with autoimmunity
26:42Speaker 0great for that. Clo compared to, you know, I like them separate. I would say this is what my recommendation would be. KPV,
27:02Speaker 0like the Wolverine because you've heard us say it, you can run our higher doses of it. So I would actually keep that separate.
27:20Speaker 0And if you don't feel like you have issue with skin and hair and nails and all that stuff, then you don't necessarily need the GHK- CU. How old is she? 39?
27:29Speaker 0You feel like that's good, then that's going to save you money. Now, if it's not that big of a deal and you just want to run the cloak, cool. It works equally as well. I would run just the KPV injectable myself,
27:41Speaker 0because you're running the Wolverine already and you got the KPV and the BPC orals and the TA-one, I think just those will do amazing for you.
27:58Speaker 2Is Khloe the best possible thing for my gut inflammation? For gut and inflammation? No. The best possible thing I think is
28:10Speaker 2Great. Which you can get easily. You can just let us know and we can help you out with where to get that. So
28:21Speaker 2Clo is great, and like you said, I think you know sounds like you know what else it's gonna do for you and that stuff ain't bad. You totally could take even the Clo and what I just said.
28:42Speaker 2intestinal peptide. So those need to be smarter with the dosing and it's not just like the same thing for everybody, but
29:02Speaker 0I don't think it's every autoimmune because there's a lot of them, but I think the majority of them, his attack is TA-one
29:23Speaker 0I don't remember the VIP. It's low dose as well. And VIP will like flush you like crazy.
29:29Speaker 0We took way too much when we 1st got it. We were like, woah, like it's immediate. I was like, I think I took much too much. Yeah. Yep. You're white. You're red, bro. And the VIP the VIP after that protocol is to,
29:39Speaker 2is for the to combat the Herxheimer syndrome. So basically, like, the LL-thirty 7 is clearing bacteria
29:52Speaker 2then your body, wow, gets hit from this bacteria and people can, that's what they call like a Herxheimer reaction.
30:02Speaker 0out of you. So it's 10 days. Oops. Yep. Quick go. So try that. Now, autoimmunes, you got to deal with 1. So just be careful with the TA-one because there are some people, if it is flamed contingent upon what it is, I've
30:19Speaker 0There's generally like a beacon on it that like if you if your immune system's running low, it will ramp it up and vice versa.
30:27Speaker 0But with people with autoimmunity, if you have an flare of it, it can actually increase it. So I don't want to throw you off too much, but just be careful because I deal with that myself. So
30:46Speaker 2I'm up. Hey, guys. Hi, guys. Love the podcast. I'm 21 year old male who, who is contemplating using BPC-one
30:56Speaker 2to heal my shoulder from existing issues spanning back 7 years ago. I had stabilization
31:08Speaker 2league. It was advised at the time to let it naturally heal and build it through weight training. But today I'm still noticing a slight
31:17Speaker 2and fears of re aggravating it in specific exercises or movements. And I'm wondering if by using this stack,
31:30Speaker 2I did sublux I did sublux it again last year and I haven't had any major concerns since then.
31:35Speaker 2It doesn't give me any pain at all, but there's often signs or small tendencies that it could pop out again or restrict my gym progression in compound movements and in my technique. What do you suggest? Cheers.
31:50Speaker 2I'm not going to tell you- Yeah, go. Yeah. Worsen it. But it can't worsen it. And I mean, I've just
32:03Speaker 2day and then not for a couple of days. Like just get after it really hard and go aggressive. Like dude, if you can, if you can financially afford
32:19Speaker 2daily for a month right into the spot, right? Or just around it, you know, make a triangle so we really fully saturate
32:32Speaker 0will fix it. Yeah. There's a reason why this would be the 1 that we would choose the peptide that we would choose both. I will have said that numerous times if we only had 1 because
32:40Speaker 0we will live, wait till we die and we are going to take that 1 because it freaking works really.
32:48Speaker 2dose is probably a BPC is like 0.5 of a milligram. And so when I said between 2 and 5 mg of each, that's aggressive. But I mean,
32:58Speaker 2would at least try to I mean, at least 1 mg of each daily Yeah. Per month. The more the better though. That that it is this is a case like there's not much,
33:06Speaker 2there's not actually like diminishing returns the more and more you go. So if you can just take a bath in this stuff with it, injecting you everywhere, better. But he said, I think an important part, I don't think it will even hit on as much as we probably should.
33:26Speaker 0it's, it works if you do it like how it's supposed to do. Yeah. BPC and TV, like the wolverine, you need to do it daily for like 30 to 40 days. It,
33:34Speaker 0I won't say a 100%, but it'll be damn near a 100% help you a lot and you'll feel great. You lift heavy,
33:41Speaker 2but you do it, got to do it properly. Very important. And those of you out there like don't to heal an injury folks, we don't just rest it. Like, especially don't
33:49Speaker 2inject BPC and then do nothing. Okay. It will heal about 5 times as slow as if you inject BPC and move it. Right? You need blood. What
33:59Speaker 2you're looking in dull aching pain is good. What you don't want is sharp pain. Like sharp pain means, all right, probably
34:11Speaker 0yeah, 21, 30 days then maintenance dose it and maybe another 30 days, like 3 times a week. Well, so you're 21. So when you get into your forties, like what the pain you're feeling is a daily, it doesn't even matter. We're going to the gym, no matter what, and you go to the gym and hurting almost every day because
34:30Speaker 0All right, me. Hello, pepatide of the week podcast fam. Thank you so much for all your help every week. The podcast is great. I'm 63
34:40Speaker 0in the gym weight training 5 days a week. Good for you. I have a decent amount of muscle mass and have just started Reta and 3 weeks in started on 1 mg per week on my 3rd week now up to 2 megs.
34:53Speaker 0I'm still eating at my maintenance calories Monday through Friday with no real issue weekends, eating less as I'm busier.
35:01Speaker 0I'm loving having no food noise on the weekends and being able to eat smaller portions.
35:06Speaker 0However, I'm not sure if Retta is working for me. My weight has been fluctuating from 62.6
35:18Speaker 0I'm not losing weight as much, but feel leaner. I'm also noticing a side effect of itchy arms and legs. Is that normal?
35:35Speaker 2You're just because the scale says you're not losing weight or you're losing a little bit of weight, right? You do feel leaner, you probably look leaner, your clothes probably fit better. Like this is a good size. Yeah. Ret is doing exactly what it should be doing, which is burning fat and allowing you to keep your muscle. In fact, maybe even might even be adding muscle. Right? This is what we call like
36:02Speaker 2the itchy arms and then JD, you got to maybe speak on this a little bit more, but that is a thing. It's common. That's a common thing. Some people like have a problem putting their shirt on. It's just, it's short lived. I've never had it, but
36:15Speaker 0it's pretty common. So it happens a lot of times it's, you might need to go down for a little bit, but you're not taking much. So,
36:22Speaker 2I think you'd be fine if you just it'll, it'll subside. Yeah. If it doesn't, I wouldn't do that. I would, I'd maybe like drop it down and then just ever so slightly just slowly titrate up, titrate back up.
36:42Speaker 0that's funny because we were dealing with that a lot, like months ago. We hadn't had that pop up actually in a And
36:53Speaker 2Okay. Still eating my maintenance calories. I don't know how you define maintenance calories, but I define maintenance calories as not being in a caloric deficit and therefore you will not lose weight. Like,
37:11Speaker 2right? Your basal metabolic rate, right? Which is the amount of calories that a person burns in a 24 period at rest in a coma. Okay. Let's
37:24Speaker 2If you're eating just that, then great. You can absolutely get into a calorie deficit because this, because
37:30Speaker 2you move around, right? You probably can expect to burn at least another 2,000 calories a day. Therefore you can be at a negative of 2,000 calories. It's 3,500
37:52Speaker 2just check your food, I guess, just make sure that we, you know, that on the same page, keep going.
38:20Speaker 2Yes, it's working, bet. And it would just, it's going to snowball and keep working and keep working and keep working better. I think because you've heard so much out there that Retta is
38:35Speaker 0not an overnight thing. So it's been 3 weeks, let it do what it do. I can guarantee you feel lighter. I guarantee it. You've kind of said that in so many words,
38:48Speaker 0Do you feel lighter? You can feel that. And I can tell you that you do. So just let it do what it do. It will work. It is a certainty,
38:58Speaker 0like you said, that part's math. You do need to eat less. If you want to lose weight, that part's always been what it is.
39:26Speaker 0in the last 8 weeks since I've started Reta. Current peptide use Reta 3 mg once a weekly
40:02Speaker 0Thanks to GLOW getting close to being back into full time strength training regimen. Awesome. At my age, what
40:19Speaker 2So to answer the, what other blood test panels that you should have, here's the best thing I can do is if you go into our school,
40:35Speaker 2get a very good snapshot of what their body looks like. Okay. So if you go into our school platform and we can, we can, send
40:51Speaker 2And there's a sheet that tells you every single panel that you should tell your doctor to check off. Okay. Instead of me reciting all of these, which I don't have memorized.
41:04Speaker 2That can tell you some really cool, some extra cool things about lean muscle mass and bone density and stuff like that. That is very helpful. More of a physical type scan, but some other stuff.
41:43Speaker 2your brain from maybe from any past trauma or actually like preparing it as you get older, right? Things slow down. Dihexa

42:44Speaker 2More on the actual neurons themselves. Cerebral eyes and actually really interesting. It's not a single peptide.
42:53Speaker 2is pretty damn cool. It does a whole bunch of things to your brain to help you repair and increase your cognitive function. So
43:06Speaker 2Angiolytics Cmax is to help give you a little bit more brain energy, but Cmax is also a bit neuroprotective
43:17Speaker 2Whereas Selank is just kind of more of an anxiolytic, which is calming you down. So that's what I got for you to research and take a look into.
43:26Speaker 0He didn't say if he was on TRT. So that part is where that, where's that out? Are you hormonally optimized? That
43:36Speaker 0running TRT or you're hormonally optimized, cause you're 64 dude, that is a must for you. And then we'll set it. I was figuring he was. HGH,
43:46Speaker 0I think that you're going to have a lot better just going to HGH than any of secretagogue
44:16Speaker 0It's not a peptide. We've talked about it. It's my favorite. I took 1 before this podcast as I do in every podcast because it just gives me just direct. I just just
44:49Speaker 0T4, and then ferritin are some options. Like Will said, we have, I should say he, this dude has been put together so much content for before we even started our company. He's just been compiling those data forever.
45:04Speaker 0If you go into school and look around a little bit, a lot of people aren't looking around a little bit. It's endless information.
45:11Speaker 2That's, this will all be outlined there for you and it's all in your classroom. So it's just a wealth of knowledge there. So The hardest part is like, I do have a ton of compiled information that's just making the last 5 go, like, that's 95% of the way there. It's making the last 5% to make it look good and,
45:29Speaker 2yep. Still working on it. Keeps updating. All the time. Yep. Will's nature. Yeah. Alright. You dude. Okay. What's up guys? Thank you for did I skip this 1? Nope. What's up guys? Thank you for everything that you do within the community. God bless you all and your team. Thank you. Thank you. I'm 33 year old male. So,
45:53Speaker 2nanograms per deciliter. I got prescribed Tessep at 160 mg a week along with Clomid and Anastrozole
46:01Speaker 2for estrogen. My question is, should I keep this doctor's protocol or take out the Clomid and run HCG with it? Currently
46:17Speaker 225 mgs of NAD plus 4 times a week, 40 micrograms IGF-one pre workout. My fear is having my balls shrink and being infertile.
46:44Speaker 2other than that, like all the other problems in horror stories you hear about guys, everybody taking testosterone,
46:51Speaker 2freak accidents or just freak people have 1 little weird thing wrong with them or just heavy, like abuse, Running
47:00Speaker 2like, in a dose like a time. Normal dose is not normal. Yeah, running TRT dose, the only real worry potentially is the infertility.
47:08Speaker 2So I wouldn't I hate Klomiphene. I think Klomiphene's old freaking news, dude. If anything, Enclomiphene,
47:23Speaker 2And clomiphene actually works twice as well. And it stimulizes your luteinizing hormone and your follicle stimulating hormone.
47:37Speaker 2I would do both. Yeah. No, I would. Okay. So I probably wouldn't do the Enclomiphene unless you're actually trying to make a baby right now. He's 33. You probably like, Oh right now. Yeah, right now. Okay. Like I would say you'll kind of keep you working because your body
47:51Speaker 2can get a little used to this stuff. Like I don't want you to don't double up on them right now
47:57Speaker 2because then in a year is when you really want it. And now when you add those in and you just keep adding them in, they may not be as great and potent. So I would wait on the Enclomiphene, would kill the Clomiphene. I
48:28Speaker 2you know, like we had Doctor. Stanley on, don't use it unless you need it. Okay. So that is to help kill off your estrogen at 160
48:37Speaker 2mg a week, dude, and your test levels already being low, I cannot see you having any estrogen issues. But if you do, what you're looking for is
48:46Speaker 2any excess acne. Okay. Body, like, especially shoulders, body, damn, why am I having to get dotted out or something?
48:54Speaker 2Water retention. So if you look everywhere, right, excess water tension, you feel a little bit more, look a little bit more bloated than you normally do. And then any nipple sensitivity. These nipples are sensitive, itchy, they hurt. Itchiness may actually, and I believe him, Jay Campbell didn't tell us that that can be a sign of just of elevated,
49:18Speaker 0And forgot about that. That is rad. Told you that I always would feel that. And now with
49:23Speaker 0that being said, because I'd never heard anybody say that, but I would actually call Doctor. Scott years ago and just be like, it's whenever I eat a lot of carbs, I feel like I have that itchy.
49:32Speaker 0And I was like, when he said that, I was like, oh my God, that's what I was. Maybe I didn't, maybe I wasn't like- Wasn't forgotten about As much estrogen as I thought, singing all this AI for no reason. Yep.
49:42Speaker 2Crazy. But true nipple sensitivity and people get to prepare and they're like, you'll know, dude. If you, if you like it hurt, it hurts. And it takes like, once you start to feel that pain, you got a couple of weeks, man, your body is trying, basically your body is trying to grow a little, is trying to grow breasts. All right. But it starts with a little bead of fat. Anything grown there cannot be burnt off. It needs to be cut out. So if you start to feel some sensitivity, whack, okay, or any of those 3 symptoms, okay, a lot of people present only 1, whatever, that's still 1 of those symptoms. Then you can introduce
50:17Speaker 2basically introduce it. The goal is to take as little of that as possible while still having no side effects. So introduce it, but also the goal, you do not want to take it till you feel that stuff is gone and then stop taking it. Right? We don't want to let build, let the estrogen build, build, build, build. Oh, let's just kill it off then stop and then let it build up again and kill it off. No, the goal is to just keep it low the whole time.
50:45Speaker 0So he's, I was wondering, I'm wondering if he, he gave those to you and told you to take them or if he gave those to you and said, take them if you need them or especially the AI. I'd be curious if like you,
50:57Speaker 0160 mg is low. I mean, you are so low on your testosterone. I would probably go up to be honest with you. Does he say his age? But here's the thing, a doctor is, I would actually say,
51:16Speaker 2give you 1st, they go, Here, you're going take a tiny little bit, come see me in a month. We're going to blood test you again.
51:22Speaker 2How that changed. And now we're going to increase it. And they do that in very slowly incrementally.
51:31Speaker 2based because you were so low is probably why you started, gave you that starting dose at so high. Now it's not high, but it's high for what I think a doctor their very 1st prescription is. Yeah. Well,
51:42Speaker 0mean, dude, you hear all kinds of stuff. Again, it is not 1 shoe size fits all for sure. So yeah, start with that 160, play it for, I would say more than a month. Would give it a couple of months, let it play out as an oil base. It takes like 3 weeks before you're going to like actually feel anything.
51:57Speaker 0And then you go from there, man. You get to see how you feel, see how you feel. Your numbers are super low, so you're going to feel good. I'm out before you probably super tired, dude. Yeah, Clomiphene, I've never ran it because I just have read it just makes you feel like shit. So I have never ran it. So HCG,
52:17Speaker 0I use Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I'm not trying to stay fertile, but I am trying to keep my balls from shrinking.
52:25Speaker 0some people say, why does it care? I care. So that's why I do it. So you do you, So I would run it. They'd see me.
52:33Speaker 0Like when you want to get pregnant, you're 33, I'm assuming you don't have kids. If you do already, then cool. But if you do, you know, you can hit us up again. And like we've helped numerous friends like, and they've 100 percent have gotten pregnant
53:00Speaker 0Go to a private MD who is currently being trained in peptides, 140 pounds, five'one with super low BMR,
53:07Speaker 0but very small waist and tummy. Have a really hard time putting on muscle because I have choke hot Mary tooth disease.
53:32Speaker 0daily, SLU- sublinguals 2 times per day, weight train-two times with trainer and 3 times by myself. You got this dialed girl.
53:50Speaker 0I have or put on more? Thank you for being personable, easy to understand and not douchey. Love the John 3 16 cards,
54:01Speaker 0Nope. Love it. Good stuff. That's awesome. Yeah. Good for you. Yeah. This girl's dialed man. I love it. She's put thought into this and that's stacked great. That is great. Yeah.
54:13Speaker 2you're asking the right question. I don't know to keep more muscle, With a low BMR generally that's because of low
54:26Speaker 2you could potentially eat more protein if you're lifting that much. Right? I know the 1 g per pound of body weight, but, and as a woman, you know, Hey, see if you can add in some more protein.
54:37Speaker 2As a man like my, I would probably, I'm aiming for like 1.5 g of protein per pound of body weight. It's really, really, really hard, but like, but that's kind of, that's a goal.
54:57Speaker 2hormone is 1 of the biggest ways to do it, right? You are taking Tessa, you're taking a full MIG of Tessa for a small, small person.
55:04Speaker 2If that's not causing water retention, then great. But maybe add in like, maybe take that like Tessa Ip 10 mg plus 3 mg blend,
55:33Speaker 2can really help build on some muscle. And then the good thing is like the muscle you build, you should keep based on everything you are taking
56:00Speaker 0you're, you're eating, you're taking fat burners for the most part, you know, you know, the Retta you're taking
56:06Speaker 0AOD, which is going to burn fat and SLU-3s is going to burn fat, you know, and it's going give you some, stamina. But, you could either, I bet you with what you're running and you seem like a super disciplined individual,
56:18Speaker 0you probably don't even need the Retta. Like if you want to be, if you want to gain muscle, you got to eat more, you you know? And it sounds like that might be the problem. You're not eating enough, even though you're eating
56:33Speaker 0I just need to eat more. I bet you that's just the problem. And that you're gonna maybe find that difficult on Retta.
56:43Speaker 0that would do it. You know, make sure you're taking creatine, make sure you're sleeping well.
56:49Speaker 0I think that would work. The IGF-one would definitely help a little bit, especially for women. Oh my gosh.
57:00Speaker 0And I think that's going to work. If you can't eat more with what you're running, I would kick the Reta to the curb because you seem like a very disciplined person and you might not need it. Believe it or not, we don't say that often, but
57:11Speaker 2there you go. All right. Hey guys, so I appreciate everything you do. I had a bad reaction and wanted your thoughts. Okay. So a few days ago, I had a bad reaction to CJC IpA combo dosed at 2 50 mg each micrograms
57:24Speaker 2each. I got very flushed and vomited. I had been taking it for a few weeks with no issues before that. So I decided to stop and switch to Tessa IpA.
57:48Speaker 2got red and swollen. My whole body was itchy and lips and tongue even swelled up. I took Benadryl and it calmed down after an hour or so. It was scary to say the least, no doubt. I had since stopped all of those, but has me wondering if it was the GHK-
58:34Speaker 21. Now I know you can take the glow blends, but like don't take them all together again because you don't know what's causing it.
58:40Speaker 2But this is normal. Literally have 1 of my good friends told me this the other day that they had in like all the injection sites ever just kind of swell up.
59:00Speaker 2I would, if you feel like testing yourself by doing it again and seeing what it is, okay.
59:07Speaker 2I understand. I probably would, to be honest. Like, even it's me, I would do it. I would be like, alright, let's just see what happens. I'd give myself super low dose and have Benadryl
59:16Speaker 2right next to me. Right. But because that shit's scary and dude, and it's probably just gonna get nothing but worse. So be careful. The reactions usually get just get worse and pretty rapidly worse Yeah. On anything. I would also, if you ever want to keep trying it, like inject super duper slow and inject into fat. So if you happen to be a person who's really, really lean and you're sub Q, you don't have much fat, go find sub Q area that doesn't have fat.
59:42Speaker 2Of just in that perfect water sub Q layer, really getting the fat and inject like ultra slow.
59:52Speaker 0It's obviously it's common. CJC is, is you, is the culprit most of the time. We talk about that a lot, but
1:00:01Speaker 0everybody's different. My wife has that same problem, dude. Like she'll inject and like everywhere that she's injected is red and inflamed. It's crazy. It's the weirdest thing.
1:00:31Speaker 0And that's how I would do it. And it 1 compound at a time is the most important because you just need to find what is the culprit and
1:00:38Speaker 0that might just take time. You're just that type of person that might be sensitive to stuff, man, unfortunately, but
1:00:44Speaker 0play your cards right, man. You'll be able you'll get through it. So hope that helps, man. Am I taking this home? Yes.
1:01:00Speaker 0feet to constantly be cold. My dermatologist wants to put me on autoimmune med and I'm not interested, so I wanted to see what peptides could be the best to help me. I did just start CLO today, but wasn't sure if I should add anything else. Thanks guys.
1:01:29Speaker 0mean, it's too much. I don't know. I don't know. Yeah, I would imagine that's what it was. I would recommend Stikventin against it. It was an autoimmune, it's your gut and those just mess up your gut. So good job on you not taking that. Yes, there's other things around KPV, TA-one,
1:01:56Speaker 0and lastly the BPC and the KPV orals. I think you'll do good with that way better than an antibiotic. Yeah.
1:02:24Speaker 2Good luck with that. Yep. Lifestyle changes, I'm sure that you have read all of those that that
1:02:44Speaker 0I'll ask around. We're going to have Doctor. Scott back on here sooner or later, which is like, he's a gut guy. He just studies the gut. He deals with people all day and he's just like, man, people's guts are just torn back. He even did my wife's blood and stool tests. He was like, wow, I wasn't expecting your tiny little bride
1:03:06Speaker 0I remember when I 1st had my autoimmune, I've told this story, but it's crazy how doctors work where
1:03:12Speaker 0every 1 of them was like, well, you know, it's, there's no cure for it, but here's some antibiotics. And I'm just like, dude, why would I take that? It's not gonna cure me. Like, why would I just take antibiotics?
1:03:28Speaker 2should trade. Well, like, we did an MRI and we did a ultrasound and like, we don't see a hernia, but like, let's just do surgery anyway because it might be in there. So I was like, well, okay, because this shit hurts. But we did the surgery and I woke up and like, wow, we didn't see a hernia,
1:03:56Speaker 2that I guess I guess it'll be harder for someone to stab me in the lower abdomen with a knife now because I have this metal mesh.
1:04:03Speaker 2It's like patching a wall. If anybody knows a patch of sheetrock wall, like behind the wall, you gotta be whole.
1:04:12Speaker 2or on the front, excuse me, on the front side and then mud over, that's literally like what they're doing. For a hernia surgery, so. Yeah.
1:04:28Speaker 0Alpha Biomed. He's having a, he's coming on the show. We're going to record on Thursday. We'll drop on Monday. And he's kinda,
1:04:35Speaker 0for lack of a better way to say it, almost like the godfather of research peptides. Would you say that he started at 10 years ago? Yeah, I mean, 1 thing's for sure, like he's been doing this a long time. Long time. Long time. As
1:04:46Speaker 2far as, you know, peptide space has not been around a long time, but before you have ever heard about peptides, damn sure, right? Before we ever heard of it, he was already ingrained and building facilities.
1:04:58Speaker 2excited to figure out how he had that foresight. Yeah, that's interesting. And now he's into other things. And, but
1:05:10Speaker 0We We are going to interview him and then, so, and to, you know, we, if you have some guests that you might think are a good idea, they will be vetted and they have to kind of align with what we do. And we don't have, they don't necessarily have to believe in what we believe. We don't have, we don't have a problem bringing other people on.
1:05:27Speaker 0But they just gotta be respectful. There's some doctors have been in my comments and like, dude, you get out of here. They're pompous. And we're looking to have cool conversations
1:05:44Speaker 0put it in water and she's brilliant. She, man, she was just going off and all that water stuff or whatever. And I was like, that's cool. And that stuff's awesome. We have, we put it in here for a reason. So we'll have people like that. So any
1:05:56Speaker 0ideas for cool guests, we will vet them and if they seem like a fit, we will reach out and
1:06:03Speaker 2see if it works. And you will be talking to Brandy. Brandy is the 1 who we just That
1:06:08Speaker 2is the new producer. She's the 1 that Jill talked to so we can give everybody some information.
1:06:13Speaker 2But yeah, the goal is here on this, I guess on this show is we want to do this at peptides,
1:06:22Speaker 2kind of like light, all of those, but the hacks, right? Any way that we can all just be better to look better, feel better, work better, way better.
1:06:31Speaker 2Anything we could do in any ways to do that, that's what we're interested in is bringing all of that to the people.
1:06:43Speaker 0because he knows I'm big on fasting and there's been people that have lost their minds when he and I were talking about how fasting can cure cancer. Like this is crazy how people are passionate about that being no. But anyways, he now has written a book about like literally curing cancer and like he sent it to me. I'll be reading it on my vacation. Yeah. So I reached out to that doctor. I can't remember his name. I wish I knew, but man,
1:07:04Speaker 0So I'm going to read his book. I reached out to him and asked him on the podcast. I don't know if we'll get through. He seems like a pretty big wig, but we're trying. That would be cool.
