RFK Jr. and GLP-1s

i didn't read this because it was doing something weird "verifying your device" .

in general he'll be good getting rid of bureaucrats that are a drag on progress and having less regulation. we think.
 
his stated views are not consistent so it's hard to say what he will do. from what i can tell the common thread is a general cloud of anti-establishment viewpoints, but whether that means pharma ozempic bad/bootleg ozempic good remains to be seen. we're in for a wild ride with an administration that is all over the map and with no real platform.
 
I'm going to keep this comment politically neutral, but from what I've seen from him personally, my take on RFK Jr and peptides is that he seems to think peptides are a good thing if you're fit and want to get jacked (I'd bet money he's using HGH 🤣 ), but that he looks at GLPs with disdain, and thinks "clean food", exercise and a clean environment are what overweight people need.
 
Although it’s fun to toy around with hobbyists and joke about research, I really do appreciate the seriousness that comes with rigorous science. The assault on expertise shown here is staggering.
To clarify, by “here” you mean the political appointments that are very obviously driven by fealty vs professional experience and suitability, not “here” as in glp1forum?
 
Who knows if he'll be confirmed or if he does half of what he talks about. Some of his statements make it seem like he's in favor of the non-glp1 peptides, though what he actually means - more government funding of research so we get clinical trials, or just putting them back on the FDA compounding list, or something else entirely - is unclear from everything I've seen.

I know people that grew up on wellwater without added flouride and can say that I am absolutely a believer in flouridating the water supply, though.

Seems like the new administration may end up on the same page.

Either way, again, we're literally buying black market drugs from China lmfao who cares what the laws or policies are
unless they go OTC at dollar tree i'll be sticking to daddy tracy. dealing with the healthcare system is a fricking nightmare, and "affordable" is a very relative word when we have access to $0.50/mg tirzepatide.
 
politics aside, i figure he can't really hurt the cause for access to glp1. may not help it either, but probably won't hurt it
 
The rush to punish China coupled with a general disdain towards GLP-1 may cut the supply off. I am building a stockpile and will wait a couple of years until the dust settles.
I'm thinking about stockpiling more as well for this reason. There may not be a way to tariff gray market peptides, but I wouldn't be surprised if customs becomes more aggressive trying to enforce tariffs, which would lead to more seizures and thus vendors increasing prices to make up for the increase in lost shipments.
 
ok, i am being a naughty mod engaging in political chit chat on our politics-free site, which i apologize for. let's try to keep the convo focused on peptide issues specifically, which most of you have done. sorry for being part of the problem.

Compared to pretty much everywhere else on the internet, I'm actually impressed at how civil this thread has stayed overall
 
“They’re counting on selling it to Americans because we’re so stupid and so addicted to drugs,” Kennedy said in an appearance with Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld that he posted to Instagram last month, concluding that Ozempic, a wildly popular medicine approved to treat type 2 diabetes and used off-label for weight loss, is not going to “Make America Healthy Again.”

Doesn’t look like he’s in favor of broadening access.

Meanwhile…

I don't really want to get involved in a political discussion, because it's so divisive and I'm more of a lover than a fighter, but I just want to let you all know that if you didn't vote exactly like I did, YOU ARE DEAD TO ME!

DEAD

With that being said, I hope you all have a nice Sunday filled with laughter and love. ❤️❤️
 
there you have it folks, the leadership of the free world. at least you can see in RFK's eyes that he is aware of the faustian bargain he has made. the others are just slurp slurp sluuuuuuuurping it up.
RFK: Processed food and sugar is bad!

Also RFK: McNuggets, a Big Mac and a coke.

The F stands for Faustus. Nailed it.

I think we are all a little hypocritical at times though, Brute Enforcer Emeritus. Take me for example, I'm a church going, God fearing, hard working, decent man, but I spent all of Friday and Saturday on a cocaine bender with a prostitute. Does that mean that I'm not still all of those words I used to describe myself earlier? I'm not sure, that's for you to decide... I haven't had much time to think about it. I've been searching for my wallet all day.
