GLP Non responder's

[Here2Learn]

I’ve been reading studies on GLP’s and found this interesting. Just data points. I read another one saying those who are sicker or had early childhood obesity or trauma had higher rates of non response too.

Quote from study
“Conclusions
A high HbA1c at baseline and previous non-insulin therapy were the main predictors of a greater response (optimal HbA1c and weight response) to GLP1ra in both men and women. This may aid in treatment decision-making before initiating treatment with GLP-1RAs.”

I just got some vials off of Amazon that are covered in glitter. I tried googling if glitter affects peptide aggregation and it’s coming up blank. Am I taking on additional risk by using this, or will I just be more stylish?

seriously though, where am I meant to get proper vials? I’m sending these “vials” back, but where am I meant to get properly made ones?

And thanks, Ghoul, for all the material to read

Would you mind telling us what brand this was so no one else makes the same mistake?

How can you tell when the filter is clogged?

I plunge the reconstituted solution through the filter into a new vial, and eventually the filter gives some “pushback”. This isn’t from the vial, as if I try plunging into air it still gives pushback.

I can get water through, but not air. What gives?

Here’s a video after I disconnected the syringe, filled it with air, and tried getting it through the filter

What kind of filter material is that?

What kind of filter material is that?

Why? These the wrong ones?

Also, is it safe to make BAC water from pharma-grade sterile water (not saline) and mixing it with benzyl alcohol I bought off eBay?

Would this mean that being a keto binge eater - would lead to less positive effects w/ glp1s?

I don’t think a keto binge eater has a defined increase/decrease of insulin. The study was discussing those coming in with high blood sugar levels and those never treated for insulin deregulation.

Wouldn't a keto binge eater, who say - eat's lbs of fat/protein at a time, in excess calories. EX pork rinds/cheese/meat still maintain lower levels of blood sugar spikes? Or am i misguided?

Maz is better than Reta if what you care about is WL, but otherwise you're right.

Nope, in terms of WL reta can not be beaten.

I wrote an entire paper about this that pulled in data from multiple studies. You can find it around here somewhere.

Okay point me to the study that is showing retatrutide to not be superior for weight loss / body weight reduction. There is no such study, so whatever you wrote into that paper is utterly nonsense.
