Well said. I would add that with a large population you would also increase the likelihood of patients with additional risk factors beyond the typical or "standard" pinner. These folks probably shouldn't have started this series of injections to begin with, but did and suffered; thus adding to the number of negative outcomes.
Your are right as well. It is up to each individual to weigh the pro and cons and decide what is an acceptable risk. I think most of the risk comes when the same financial problems that led people to the grey also drive the decisions of what is ok and what is not. Some people cannot afford to use the US vendors so they turn to China. Some people can barely make ends meet so they look for the cheapest China vendor. They are lucky to be able to scrape together enough for meds but cannot afford extra for testing. After going through all of this there is no way they are going to throw away that vial made of gold just because it "might" be a little past date. Most people are desperate to lose the weight that before now they thought would never happen. People are desperate to improves their health and live their best life. A lot of these people are living on disability and fixed income due to poor health from obesity and problems related to it. It is just a shame that money is the main reason that people feel they have to take the risks that they do. I am speaking from my own experiences and from that of friends and other people I have met along the way.
Amen.
That's how we do in the Carolinas! Gotta help when and where we can because sometimes we are the ones in need.
Just minor BS though
Exactly!
Nothing wrong with having extra. Stocking up isn’t terrible at all as long as you ( or anyone else ) do not panic buy from just anyone. Happened a handful of times in the year & 1/2 since joining, I’ve read of many getting scammed.
Love you for keeping it real.
But, but, but. . . they are having a sale!
About 4 years. Or until RFK Jr. finally kicks the bucket. Good news is that men in his family tend to pass prematurely.
It’s hard to justify intentionally creating more than a 6 month surplus. Yes, there will be intermittent greater enforcement, however, steroids haven’t been able to be kept out to the US despite them being subject to far greater legal prohibitions than GLP-1 drugs. The US government is being cut like crazy. Trump will greatly expand the work of the remaining employees. Your ability to import peptides from China may become a little more difficult at times but that’s it. About three months ago, we started seeing greater customs enforcement although that seems to have passed. GLP-1 prices are now cheaper than ever.

I know. I couldn’t resist. I don’t want anything bad to happen to the guy.
Although I am not a fan of RFK Jr., I don't think he has much to do with customs enforcement. RFK Jr. has praised peptides but has criticized injectable weight loss drugs; I'm not sure he has recognized that what folks are injecting consists of peptides. I have a hard time characterizing whether RFK Jr. is good for people who receive GLP-1 research drugs for China. It's not like those who have a position on measles: If you are pro-measles, then RFK Jr. is a good friend.About 4 years. Or until RFK Jr. finally kicks the bucket.
