Thanks. It was your highly informed posts mainly that got me interested in peptides and looking into them in the first place. Mainly because, well... I'm getting old, and weightlifting ain't easy. Although, praise the Lord, I'm still recovering really good.

My thing is, I'm really healthy at this point and I don't want to do something thinking it will make myself better only to make myself worse. It's kind of like when decent looking older gals, go in for plastic surgery to reclaim their youthful looks only to have it backfire on them and they come out looking hideous.

I totally get that. If it ain’t broke…

Funny you bring up the plastic surgery thing. My wife worked for a facial plastic surgery place before she became a kids pastor. You could always tell the women who didn’t listen to doctors and thought that more was better. Her boss wouldn’t do a lot of surgeries on patients because he knew the results would be bad. Those patients usually went and it done somewhere else, and then came back to him wanting him to fix their face lol.

Research it a lot. Look hard at all the negatives. Harder at the negatives than the positives. Then if you want to try some, start extremely slow and low. Get bloodwork done every month. Look at the results of the bloodwork yourself and educate yourself on what it means. Don’t just let your doctor look at it and say “it’s all normal”.
