I keep getting ads for peptides in some of my twitter / instagram feeds. I really like what I'm seeing in terms of what they can do. They are pricey, though. I'm not looking for HGH but rather purer and more effective ways to get supplements in me. This particular blend really does a lot of what I want.

Peptide blend

Anyone else investigated peptides? Use them?

I'm beginning to start my anti-aging campaign and am looking for all of the cost-effective methods I can find.

I'm taking two different ones through Ways2Well, but it's only been 3 weeks so I don't have a lot to report yet. Mine are injectable, one daily and the other weekly.

Doc said they will help with weight loss, joint pain, and a few other things. Other folks swear by them.

I don't have much to offer, but I was curious about the Ways2Well place and wanted to say if anyone is looking at the Gluclose option and you're female, be aware it contains DHEA. And DHEA can really jack your system since it is a hormone that has steroid effects while also possibly increasing the risk of hormone-sensitive cancers, including prostate, breast, and ovarian cancers. I didn't want any girls not to be aware and just click and buy

Feel much better in the mornings, more energy. Also eating much less. Not necessarily appetite suppressed, but I don't have cravings and I fill up on smaller portions.

I get to ramp up my dosage in a few weeks so we'll see. Right now I'm on smaller doses to see how my system reacts.

Howdy Cody!

It doesn't appear that you can just research and buy the peptides directly from their site. My question is, do you have to go through their consultation steps prior to purchasing? Also, I second the request for which of their products you're taking.

I'm doing research as well.. have been testing CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin combination. The subject was losing weight, but body fat percentage was not changing until I introduced the peptide combination. Weight loss continued bu lean mass held constant, with minor gains via hydrostatic testing. I saw a 20% decrease in body fat % in 5 weeks. Looks promising!

Edit to add… i have started testing the 5-amino 1mq, but not the formula linked above. Only been a week on that peptide. Most of the fat loss has been the injectable peptides. The 5-amino 1mq is primarily for increasing NAD+ for longevity per Sinclair's work. We will see.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Anyone have experience with pt-141, particularly for male libido enhancements? I'm 43, testosterone at 800-900, estradiols in a goodbramge, lift heavy weights and about 17% bf and eat whole foods (avoid processed food, >90% of my calories are from food I prepare). Despite that, libido can get low and my wife has always had a hyperactive sex drive that I want to get closer to matching

Had some people recommend BPC 157 for my shoulder but haven't tried it yet. If something could heal it 50% I would be happy to avoid surgery

Yes sir, do it it's amazing. Stack it with tb500 for 6 weeks, take a break for a week then another 6 weeks. It's called the wolverine stack. There's a lot of info on Ben Greenfield's website as well as Jay Campbell's. Good luck

You got a great problem there buddy! I haven't tried it, but all the anecdotes I have read is that you get boners for like 24 hours non stop. So like a super viagra. I don't think it does much for a guys libido per se, just boners all day. It is really geared towards women's libido. That being said if you want to do a marathon with your wife it's worth a try.

Thinking about trying this out.

Any company/site recommendations to get it from.

Yeah, either biolongevity labs or limitless life nootropics. It's a bit pricey, but they are both top quality labs. My father in law had a horrific back injury and wasn't getting around at all. We got him on 12 weeks of bpc157/tb500 and he was back to crawling around in the lake arrow head hunting in week 5.

I've never touched the Wolverine stack but now 2 people right now currently taking it. I know of another 3 that have taken it in the last year.

Every single one of them have had nothing but great things to say. One had a torn pec and rebounded pretty dang quickly. The other was coming back from a hernia. Both sped up their recovery by almost half of normal time.

I'm not a big advocate of taking a bunch of foreign stuff but if I have a significant injury, you can bet your ass I'd be taken the Wolverine stack.

Do you go to a doctor or what to get these?

No, your doctor will most likely have no idea about peptides. Do your own research, buy your peptides, syringes, BAC water, and administer yourself.

I've done a 12 week and two 6 week follow up cycles of the Wolverine stack while recovering from some semi-serious lumbar and facet joint issues.

I noticed the most benefit during the first cycle but am a firm believer that it has helped speed up the recovery process. This in conjunction with Mcgills Back Mechanic suggestions, that is.

I'm 8-9 months out and am mostly functional… albeit on a modified exercise regimen that focuses on not compressing the spine.

Regarding 2girldad trying to make it 3girldad, give ashwaganda + tongkat ali supplements a shot before going the peptides route.

Did yall do the injectable or capsule?

Injectable. BPC157 can be taken orally but isn't as effective. The capsule is used usually for gut issues.

Find some of the boards on Reddit, of all places (PeptideForum; Peptides) -- follow Jay Campbell on X -- he has a lot of guides. It takes some research, but it's easy to understand once you really dive into it. The stuff sold is for research purposes, and so you won't find medical personnel who will mention much. Limitless is a good place for a product. Make sure to get their bac water to reconstitute and nothing from Amazon, etc.

So I don't have to reinvent the wheel what EXACTLY would I need to do a Wolverine stack?

There are decent bac options on Amazon from reputable manufacturers. FYI.

Caveat - it's absolutely important to buy bac from reputable sources
JeepWaveEarl
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Agreed. But, by the time you figure that part out.... You could just order from the place where you got the stuff, that's all I was recommending just so they didn't assume they were all good on Amazon

PUTU -
is a good overview.


is a good video with Thomas Delauer on its use

Here is a journey of a guy who used it for a torn ACL: https://www.reddit.com/r/ACL/comments/1jwe0oe/documenting_my_aclr_meniscus_repair_journey/
He discusses what the doc told him on dosing, etc.

A written account on how a doctor is using it for pain management and physical medicine: https://activelifepaincenter.com/revolutionizing-recovery-how-dr-lundquist-is-using-bpc-157-tb-500-and-regenerative-therapies-to-accelerate-healing/

A written article from an ortho place in Texas on its use: https://moabtexas.com/bpc-157-vs-tb-500/

NIH article on Bpc157 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6271067/
Journal article on TB https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8228050/

What to order (these are three reputable sources) for "Wolverine" stack:
Another two options are the "Glow" blend that includes Gku-Cu along with the "Wolverine" duo:
Studies on BPC-157, GHK-Cu, and TB-500 highlight their potential benefits for skin health and rejuvenation.
  • BPC-157 has shown promising results in wound healing by supporting tissue repair and reducing inflammation.
  • GHK-Cu is well-documented for its skin-renewing properties, helping improve elasticity, collagen production, and firmness, making it popular in anti-aging research.
  • TB-500, derived from thymosin beta-4, aids in cellular repair and regeneration, which is valuable in skin injury recovery.
Together, these peptides offer a multifaceted approach for skin health, combining healing, collagen support, and inflammation reduction, as shown in preclinical research focused on skin repair and anti-aging applications.

or the "Klow" that includes Studies on BPC-157, KPV, GHK-Cu, and TB-500, each known for their unique roles in inflammation control, tissue repair, and immune modulation. This combination is studied in research for its potential synergistic effects on accelerating wound healing, enhancing gut integrity, and reducing systemic inflammation. Researchers often explore KLOW in models involving autoimmune conditions, metabolic dysfunction, and regenerative medicine.

The KPV adds extra suppression/reduction in inflammation --

Can get either already formulated (but needs reconstitution like all the others):
https://primepeptides.co/products/glow-blend/
https://primepeptides.co/products/klow-blend/
(need to reconstitute any of these stacks with 3ml of BAC water (ordered separately from product)

Here is a calculator to help show know how many units to dose up -- https://primepeptides.co/peptide-calculator/?srsltid=AfmBOoqxMKgt7qtOzxMCF1ImaLtSP8Etu8JoEu4SCWeNQrD2rfuqSPr2

Hope this helps!

For a 12 week cycle what is the estimated total cost?
JeepWaveEarl
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Depends on dosing, product, etc.

I recommend using the calculator to figure out the number of units in a vial. Here is an example. If you type these numbers in the calc you should get the same:

Example:
Using this Wolverine Product
Pep Strength: 10 mg stack vial +
Bac Water: 3 ml is the standard to reconstitute peps
Dose of Peptide: 300 mcg/day
Needle: .5ml /cc
Pull to 9 (ml or units) for each dose
Days Worth: 33 doses/vial (3.33 mg/ml concentration per dose)
So basically $120 for 6 weeks (assuming no waste and no Bac costs)

Perhaps I'm searching wrong, but how would you determine how much BAC to use to reconstitute? For pt-141, I can't fine how much BAC for a 5mg vial.


Never mind, I get it now. So, in general, peptides are 3 mL.

Can't, we fixed that after the second was born.

I have also used those supps before, and did notice a little difference, but waned after a while.

Fair enough. I'm hoping hyper active doesn't equal every day. The boys need some time to recharge.

JeepWaveEarl
How long do you want to ignore this user?

Correct -- there are some cases with Ghk-cu that you would put more to basically water it down more (it burns like a mofo)... but 3 is the standard for peps.

My exact issue, been doing PT but hasn't gotten any better. I have convinced myself that I am likely never doing BJJ again but there are some day to day things I want to be able to do without pain. Surgery is still an option but recovery takes forever
