Also i read paperwork inside genotropins it actually says in small percentage of patients GH antibodies Develop early and in high amounts so huge doses Are needed.

The reports are mainly in children with genetic deficiencies (some already predisposed to immune disorders). Not generally healthy adults [or bodybuilders].

That has absolutely nothing to do with the development of immunogenicity, only the severity of the impact. If you make NO growth hormone any loss of efficacy of HGH will have a more severe consequence.
 
I have heard Private MD Labs and Walk-in Lab are both great as well.

I regularly use both. They’re decent. The hormone panel I use is cheap as hell through Private MD labs but I can’t seem to replicate it using their search, so I just keep reordering the same thing. I think they’re trying to funnel people to higher margin panels.

I use walk-in labs for the CardioIQ advanced lipid panel. They have the best price for that one.

All the labs I purchase are Quest and I track the results through the quest portal.

Do not order a bunch of labs through 2 or 3 vendors and then have the draws all done in the same visit unless your HCT is high and you need to shed some red blood cells. They end up collecting a ton of samples.

Good to know, thanks man, appreciate the tips!!! Much needed.
 
Did you check jasonhealth? they use quest. I just got blood work done and I spilt the order between jasonhealth and ultalabs. Scheduled the appointment and showed them my 2 orders and they pulled blood for both orders at the same time. I also check grassroots labs for some tests.

This one is jasonhealth.

This is so cheap it doesn't even make sense to me!! :eek:

I like private MD lab’s athletic ultimate anti-aging panel, I get it twice a year just for a catch all. Then piece tests together if I have something specific going on the rest of the time. Trying to find the correct combo of panels is a pain in the ass sometimes but buying individual test is way too expensive.

My cheap ass hates that I have to include LH and FSH test.
 
Don't mix them. It's a marathon, not a sprint for the most noticeable results, 6 months. Results most similar to low dose GH, for anti aging rather than bodybuilder results. Lower risks than GH and should be sustainable indefinately with very minor, if any sides. We know there are daily users of Egrifta 10 years+, under medical care, without anything troubling in the data.

Easier to manage as well because of its indirect effect and physiological levels, pretty much any time of day is fine, as long as it's consistant,

Tesa also seems to result in ongoing higher levels of GH after use is stopped, fwiw.

Given the already high rate of immunogenicity with the pharma Tesa, this, perhaps more than any other peptide should be filtered IMO.

When you say don't mix them do you mean don't run a cycle of both at the same time, or don't administer both in the same injection?

Don't mix them in the same vial or syringe.

It's a good idea if injecting them at the same time to use sites on opposite sides. Tesa is highly immunogenic, almost everyone experiences site reactions. You don't want another peptide in the same area the immune system is responding to.

Vaccines, proteins engineered to maximize immunogenicity, will sometimes use another compound or particulate that causes a strong immune reaction to induce a stronger response to the vaccine than would ordinarily happen. This is the opposite of what we want to occur with the peptides/proteins we don't want to build an immunity to.

BTW: these "immune stimulators" are called adjuvants. Particulate trash like glass and rubber particles in cheap Chinese vials act as adjuvants, as do aggregated proteins. Filtration removes these, lessening the overall immune response to peptides.

Not Ghoul, but I am assuming he means not both in same injection/syringe. He has mentioned before that mixing peptides in the same syringe or even vial, basically mixing of diff peptide solutions, can create aggregates of the proteins which leads to less efficacy or worse outcomes.

Edit: Just saw him post above lol
 
But why should I pay for testing, and publish testing for vendors and members alike to use for their benefit and ZERO cost to them? How does that benefit me? Because Meso is about harm reduction?
There are a few communities you can join now that have solved this problem through group testing. You voluntarily join a group that wants to test a specific product and all contributors get access to the tests. I've done a few this year and the most expensive one was $10.

I think there are enough people on Meso to pull something similar together if everyone got organized, but this is a very independent group.
 
Received some orange peptide vials from Qingdao, not sure what they were. Any chance they were tirzepatide of any kind? Anyone else get any orange peptide vials recently?

Just so you know, Tesa resulted in immunogenicity in roughly half of people that took it in the trial stage (anti tesa antibodies). Of the half that had immunogenic rxn, 85% developed neutralizing antibodies. Of that 85%, Almost a third (60%) developed cross reaction to natural growth hormone releasing hormone.
In the end, It didn't mean anything, as this did not affect efficacy. Turns out that the antibodies may be binding to nonfunctional parts of the peptide.

Just another useless contribution from me :cool:

So I only have a undergrad biochem degree, and I don't claim to be an expert at all but I am seeing some possible glaring flaws in your theories of aggregation esp with suggesting filtering as a solution. If aggregates are readily forming from peptides or peptide blends they should be interfering with any optical based analytic technique unless said aggregates just so happen to have the same absorbances of the targeted substances(incredibly unlikely). This should be very easy for some one like Jano to test for. Love to hear him chime in on this.

Secondly, If these aggregates are large enough that filtering them would be remotely effective then you should also be able to "see" them visually with the naked eye by shinning a laser through the solution and looking for observable light scattering. We used this technique in a lab course to detect the presence of nanoparticles.

food for thought.

Wow this is quite interesting! Because I have read just as your quoted study states, that there are higher amounts of immunogenicity in Tesa, I suppose I haven't seen the latter of your comment on the affect on efficacy, but if this is true then that is pretty remarkable.

Where was this study? Thanks man

This is great for context. Not useless. Thank you sir
