Hey, folks. Uh, today's public service announcement, all the talk of peptides, uh, growth hormone, short forms, these sorts of things, first of all, there's really little clinical evidence that these things actually work to promote healing. Uh, the offshore compounding variety that a lot of people are buying, uh, I think are downright dangerous. Um, from a clinical standpoint, they do nothing, and I repeat, nothing to help muscle. Muscle is not supported by growth hormone. If you're low in growth hormone, you're simply short in stature. If you're high in growth hormone, you're tall. You don't have any more muscle. So, forget about all of these drugs that promote growth hormone release or the growth hormone analogs or growth hormone peptides to try and restore muscle because it is a total waste of time. I think actually even the injectable and oral, uh, peptides that are out there, all of them for the most part are a complete waste of money and waste of time. Look for some clinical efficacy data and ask yourself as a thought experiment why big pharma hasn't latched onto these things if they worked and isn't scooping them up, patenting them, and marketing them. I've heard all kinds of conspiracy theories about they're unpatentable, they're unmarketable, uh, that sort of stuff. Well, if they worked, why hasn't somebody taken them into mass commercial production? #peptides #GH #BPC157 #strengthtraining #muscle #tendon #bone #collagenoustissue #efficacy #ripoff #wasteofmoney healing #healthyaging #resistancetraining #ligament
