  1. Thoughts on numbers

    You mean quotation marks. Parentheses look like this ( ). If you can’t tell the difference between punctuation marks, no wonder you’re out here confusing racism with insight. TIP: If you’re going to come at me trying to defend a racist take with distraction, at least get your terms right...
  2. Thoughts on numbers

    It’s not a “hard accusation,” it’s just pointing out how it came across. Using “dirty Chinese garage” as shorthand is a stereotype. If the point is really about unregulated, unsafe production, then say that — because it’s true no matter the country.
  3. Thoughts on numbers

    What you said honestly comes off as racist — it’s not about “dirty Chinese garages,” it’s about unregulated production and shady suppliers anywhere in the world. People cut corners when profit is the only motive, no matter the country.
  4. States Are Walking Back Medicaid Coverage for GLP-1s

    I get that it can be frustrating to see purchases you wouldn’t make yourself, but a checkout snapshot doesn’t tell the whole story of someone’s life or budget. SNAP benefits are limited and often don’t stretch to cover a full month’s food, and the cheapest calories in our system are usually the...
  5. States Are Walking Back Medicaid Coverage for GLP-1s

    That’s an oversimplification that ignores both the reality of poverty and the actual data. SNAP and Medicaid exist to prevent worse outcomes—hunger, untreated illness, homelessness—not to “make people fat.” Processed food is cheap and accessible because of how our food system is structured, not...
  6. Recommended supplier

    I think the problem may be with Lucy. I've had similar issues and other reps seem to handle things just fine.
  7. Bacteriostatic Saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride) vs. Bacteriostatic Water

    Same in Mexico. Bac doesn't exist
  8. Bacteriostatic Saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride) vs. Bacteriostatic Water

    Does anyone know if these can be used interchangeably with GLP1s? Ph is roughly the same and I can't find anything that says sodium chloride degrades this specific peptide. The straight Hospira Bac seems harder and harder to get, where the Bac NS seem readily available.
  9. Do You Filter Your Peptides Before Use?

    Calm logic🤣🤣
  10. Do You Filter Your Peptides Before Use?

    I think for the most part, you and I are saying the same thing, and we're both making assumptions whether or not the vial was sterile. My point was this seems an over the top concern to put it back into the vial for a sub q injection, especially if filtered and mixed with BAC. Im not...
  11. Do You Filter Your Peptides Before Use?

    Not exactly, it was just descriptive. I don't claim to be a peptide manufacturer, but I've read enough to understand the process. I haven't seen a single one of these providers posting their manufacturing process, so I think your assumptions or mine about sterility are just that.
  12. Do You Filter Your Peptides Before Use?

    This seems way over the top for a subq injection. The vial began sterile, peptide powder enters with possible contaminats, powder is diluted with BAC, and then withdrawn into a syringe large enough to withdraw 99+% of what's in the vial now mixed, the liquid passes through a filter (appropriate...
  13. Do You Filter Your Peptides Before Use?

    That doesn't make sense to me....are you suggesting the original vial wasn't sterile to begin with? If that's the case, it's not going to matter regardless.. Or are you concerned with residual?
  14. Do You Filter Your Peptides Before Use?

    Ahhh, ok thanks . The filter has a spot for the needle...there you go 😊
