I wasn’t sure which forum to place this in but, in a nutshell, I’m a 40-year-old 6 foot 8 250lb slightly chubby male recovering from a double ACL LCL surgery and overall low back pain from a disc fuse.
Friends have been suggesting bp157 and tb500 for helping heal and recover. They also suggested ipamorelin and seramorelin for weight loss.
My question is how do I use these lolol it came in 10mg white powder in a bottle, I’m supposed to reconstitute with static water but I’m not sure the measurements or the dose or the cycle I should be using? Are there any peptides experts here? Thank you everyone
You want BAC water, and the amount is entirely up to you. I like to keep the math simple. So if you’ve got 10mg of powder, use 5mL of liquid, so you have a 2mg/1mL solution.
I did get 10mg vials, so 2mg is a normal dose? How much should I be using daily and when should I use it? Bed time or first thing in the morning? Thank for the help
The dose is what you would draw from the solution you make. It would vary based on your mixed ratio. I don’t think he was suggesting a 2mg dose, but a ratio to mix and then dose from.
Yeah I’m used to doing reg test at 2cc etc doses but the peptides are more delicate and it’s like micro dosing. So that’s what I’m curious about how to accurately mix a 10mg vial to get the correct dose which I guess is in the mcg range
1,000mcg=1mg, so 100mcg=0.1mg. I would either mix 5ml or 10ml of bacteriostatic water. I use 31gauge .3cc insulin syringes. The small dosage is easier to measure in the .3ml barrels. So, if you mixed 5ml in your vial, you would have 2mg/ml or 2000mcg/ml. That would be 20mcg/(unit on a u-100 insulin syringe). If you wanted a 200mcg dose you would draw 0.1ml, which is 10 units on the insulin syringe. I hope that answered your questions
Thank you this is the most info I’ve gotten so far. I guess my last question is if the peptide bottle is 10mg of bpc 157 and I mix in 1 insulin syringe of solution that makes each tick 1mg og bpc157 per unit. So my question is how much should a 40 year old 260 lb guy be using?
For bpc and tb…I used it post chemo to help with some god awful pain.
a) How much of mimicking a pincushion are you comfortable with? Half life is small, so you want more injections of less volume, than less injections of more volume. Can you do am/afternoon/pre bed for instance?
b) Start with an overall low volume to begin with…300mcg a day of each (divided into your injection count above) and work up to 1,000mcg a day, SLOWLY. They can really wipe your energy out.
c) Do not, do NOT take bpc if you are on SSRIs, feel generally depressed or have low serotonin. It depletes serotonin…it won’t end well. Do buy 5HTP and take it pre bed every night…do not skip this step. Increase the amount as your bpc dosage increases. And now is not the time for low carb diets.
d) Download the app “PepCalc”…it asks you the mg of the item you’re taking, size of the syringe you’re using and the desired mcg (why you need to do step a/b)…it will then tell you how much bac water. Do not mess up this step…it won’t end well.
On the Ipa/Serm; you need to be lean for these to work. If you’re insulin resistant, you stand more chance of these increasing your bodyfat than reducing it. And even then…still waiting for science to remove the “it doesn’t work” tag…
If you’re just coming back to training…just doing basic cardio/cleaning up your nutrition will do a lot. At 258lbs…your starting calories should not be presenting a problem of feeling hungry!
Speaking of insulin resistance…with every carb meal, take 400mg - 800mg of Berberine 30 mins prior (start with 400mg…it gives quite an energy boost). It acts in the same way Indigo does…obviously if you can, get that, as health food shops aren’t always the beacons of trustworthiness.Then with your meal, take 500mg - 1,500mg of Cinnamon. Same story.
Thank you very much for the info! And I’m glad you beat cancer, that’s a literal killer good on you brotha.
Ok so a 10mg bp157 vial mixed with 1cc solution makes 1mg per 100mcg. Is that too much to be using? I was thinking just once before bed with the shot but I can do morning and night if that’s going to help it work more effectively. I have a good amount of fat on my thighs and belly so sub a shots every where shouldn’t be an issue.
But you don’t think the ipa/seramorelin combo helps very much with fat? Would I be better off just stacking bp157 and tb500 instead of trying to throw in ipa/ser for increased fat burning?
Thumbs up to everyone here being so helpful this is great thank you all very much.
