FDA hates the Grey Market

I mean, the FDA was how I found OUT about the grey market. They sent out all those notices about "THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE BUYING PEPTIDES FROM CHINA LABELLED 'FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY,' RECONSTITUTING THEM, AND USING THEM. BE SURE NOT TO DO THAT!" and I was like "oh they ARE, are they? How's it working out for them?"

Anymore FDA is a wholly owned arm of Pharma. Pharma hasn't pumped millions into the pockets of Congress and the administration for nuthin.

The feds are giving their sternest warning and this guy is all like.....

To be fair , they have corporate and shareholders interest's at heart. Just by some more LLY , then they will be on your team.

Probably the morgues are all full of dead people who have been killed by this grey market. The government is here to rescue us......

I just wish there was some common sense approach to this.

Glp1s and many other peps are taken to actually improve health. It is not like drugs where people are only doing it for a temporary feeling high and then it destroys your body. And with drugs and alcohol, you could potentially endanger others as a result of taking that.

I get it needs to be regulated at some level. But I also think people should be able to do with their bodies what they want as long as they aren't endangering other people, and especially if you are doing something to improve yourself physically.

I even go a step further, just let people do what they want with their health and make adult choices.
If a body builder wants to take anabolic steroids w/o a prescription, so be it. Pharma and the AMA play gatekeeping in the name of safety...but who seriously believes this when all you have to do is look at the deaths from FDA approved drugs that happen daily.

As far as quality goes, well, again, pharma gets the best price points by sourcing overseas. They talk out of both sides of their mouths...consumer peptides from China = dangerous.
Our peptides from China=it's fine. Oh, and just look the other way when it comes to good, clean sterile facilities in India...80% of US pharmaceuticals come from China/India...they outsourced it long ago due to cost, which is not passed on to the consumer, as we all see.

More like they're best interested in our hearts. They would love to mess it up.

 

[thorien]

Agreed (farmgirlrebel), also the licenced drugs such as alcohol (and in my day cigarettes) are worse than many things they don't allow now yet were openly marketed and encouraged - even going as far as to say they were good for your health! Profits lead health outcomes. Money, as they say, speaks.

And this is the biggest myth many of us buy. They actually don't. The average shareholder is nothing to them. It's a scam. I forgot the name of that documentary where they explain this brilliantly. The actual controllers with majority shares have a huge and diverse portfolio with shares in many other firms. BlackRock and Vanguard are the usual villeins managing their funds. They don't care if some of their shares drop in one firm. They even do it actively to offset with mass gains in another firm.

Of course they do. They don't get kickbacks from the gray market.

Here's a question. How many cameras and reporters would've been at my funeral had I not found out about grey tirz and saved my life? They wouldn't give a rat's ass. Would they have done a piece about how these meds could've saved me if I could've afforded them? Nope...

Doing it Tyrone Biggums style!

Precisely. Oh and in what world does it make sense for these filth to ban or regulate Testosterone and legalize weed and drugs. It's ridiculous.

This. The FDA does all the dirty work for Big Pharma to protect their windfall profits. Citizens have absolutely zero say in this.

No, they do. Citizens are allowed to say anything, as long as what they say is "I obey".
