What if I told you that one molecule will help keep your body system cleansed, supported immune health and cellular protection all at once? I'm talking about glutathione, AKA the body's master antioxidant. It exists inside nearly every cell helping to protect de DNA, proteins and cell membranes from oxidative stress as well as playing a major role in liver cleansing, mitochondrial energy production and immune balance. Unfortunately, pollutions, toxins and stress can rapidly deplete glutathione levels. And as we age, glutathione production decreases as well. And many traditional glutathione supplements do not absorb well, making it extremely difficult to raise intracellular levels where glutathione actually works. And that's why I use glutaril, the multi patented topical glutathione developed by the amazing Dr. Nayam Patel. Instead of relying on digestion, Gluteril absorbs through the skin, helping provide a convenient and consistent way to support the body's most important antioxidant system. So use my link in the description and code, Dylan, to save 15% off today. Your peptides aren't working. Everybody else getting all these big results. There's glamorous photos everywhere, but yours aren't working. I know what you're saying, this is a scam. These don't work. These are bunk. Everybody's lying. Is that really true though? Is that what's going on or is it something else? Is it maybe you? Well that's what I'm here to talk about today. I'm Dylan Gemelli. I'm going to break this down. I'm going to give you every single potential reason why your peptides may not be working and what we have to do to make them work. So let's address this at the top and keep working our way down on the obvious to maybe the not so obvious or maybe what we just don't want to address. So the first obvious is going to be the quality of what you're using. And that's a, that's a different video and topic altogether. But I'm going to touch this briefly. First things first. The research chemical market is one of the most toxic environments that I have ever witnessed in my life. I have been in multitudes of businesses and companies throughout my life. I've seen so many different types of practice from corporate world, small business, you name it, I have been around it. Supplements and this particular industry is one of the most cutthroat and honestly one that I don't really care to associate myself in. Because of all of the evil practices that I see that go on here. The way that people slam everybody and everybody and their mom is a scammer and everybody else's product is bad and everybody else does this wrong and everybody else does that wrong. Nobody does things in a roundabout way where we're just doing the proper thing by talking about what we do well and how we stand out. But you don't see that. You don't see that. And in the research chemical world of an underground world where it's so cutthroat, and I see people that actually put out DDoS attacks on websites that I see go on prevalently. So you'll see a website go down and you'll think they got busted, but that's not even what happened. They got attacked and their websites were taken offline. People that report other companies to merchant accounts do chargebacks on purpose to get them to lose their ability to take payment processing. This goes on in this world. It is the most just deceptive and dirty world. Then you got the fake marketing and the fake websites and the influencers that are out posting things that are just getting paid, that don't even know what they're talking about or doing and misguiding everybody on how to use things. And it's. It is just the wild west now. There's new companies that pop up daily if you actually look, which I generally don't at this point anymore because my involvement in this is more for practicality reasons where I understand what's going on, but I stay just as far away from it as I can. I don't want anything to do with any of it. It's convoluting and it gives a negative energy to be around that kind of business. The thing is, is there are still companies out there that really try to do things right that have withstood the test of time. Do yourself a favor when you're researching. And I never want to call out names, and I'm not actually calling out names, I'm calling out a particular site. Don't get information from Reddit of all the. The cesspool sites in the world of negativity, and that is a place that is bought and paid for. You'll go in there and they delete comments and move things about to fit their narrative of whoever's spending the money. And then these sites that feature reviews, here's what they do. I've seen it because I've been around so many owners of companies, they'll send out an email, ask the owner, hey, you want to pay a couple thousand depending on the site. Sometimes it's more than that. And I'll put you in my top five and keep you here. If you pay me monthly. There's no reviews done. Those are all AI written garbage that are fake. Google stopped ranking them because they're, they're nonsense and they're not trusting. And here's the kicker. A lot of these places, especially on Reddit, you'll see these arguments, oh, this company's so great. That company's so great, and they're so much better than this one. Well, you know what? 80 to 85% of the companies that do underground SARMs, peptides, nootropics, whatever, research, they're just white labeling from the same exact facilities, the same damn product with a different logo and different marketing, and that's it. And you'll tell, well, I used those and they didn't work, really, because you're using the exact same thing. And that's how placebo effect works. That's how falling in line works, and that's how money works. So that's the most obvious. I'm not going to name brands on here. That's not what this video is for. And I'm not trying to get shut down. There are a few out there that have withstood the test of time, and they're few and far between, but they do exist that do things in the right way. And of course, there's compounding pharmacies where you can get certain peptides prescribed, but you can only get so many. And there's so many more out there that are so good and do so many things. So that's the obvious. The quality is the obvious. But here, let's go to the next one where this one is, well, one of those ones that people don't like to talk about. They don't ever like to do this. They don't ever like to answer this question or even broach the subject because this could never happen because everybody's perfect. I say that sarcastically. I've gotten really good at this the past few years. It's called personal accountability. Look in the mirror and ask yourself, is the reason these aren't working because of me? Well, how could that be, Dylan? How could they not be working? How is it my fault that these aren't working? Because these should be magic. They should just work and do everything and I shouldn't have to do anything. Okay, let's start from the top one. These are not magic. You have to put in the work alongside of them. To make them work or you're only going to get so much out of them. If anything, if you're not having strong habits. And I'm not just talking diet and training, I'm talking about sleep, I'm talking about nervous system, and I'm talking about a connection with God that allows you to be focused mentally and physically and to connect your health together. Nervous system. Nervous system problems will keep you from recalibrating and fully aligning your total health. And you'll never. I don't care how hormonally balanced you are. I don't care how much you work out. I don't care how perfect your diet seems to be. If your nervous system needs reset and it's off, your whole functionality is gone. It's. You're never going to have full health alignment. You're always going to ask yourself, why am I not, why am I not getting results? Why don't I feel great? What am I doing wrong? Well, like I said, it starts with a connection to God. Past that, that's when you start to work on your nervous system because your mind is in control here. Think about it. When you get into the gym and you're stuck or you're, you're getting there and it's like, what do I do next? Your mind is controlling your ability to keep pushing forward. Your mind is controlling you on even getting up and going, you can tell yourself, I don't feel like it and not go. Your mind runs everything and controls everything. If you're constantly stressed, if you're not sleeping, if you're in this state of mind where you're in fight or flight all day, I don't care how much we train, I don't care how well we eat, you're not only going to not be in full health alignment, but anything you're taking is not going to work. You got to work and the work is multifaceted and it takes a long time. It takes a lot of effort and it takes a lot of understanding, understanding on what the work is. And then you also have to look at the science with the blood panels. When something's off, we are so quick. And even with like testosterone, my testosterone is all I need. Trt. But do you or do you, do you need to look at the, the depths of the panel and see if there's an issue there that you could fix without jumping on something else that could clean this problem up. You also have to get the right tests. So let's look at it this way. In my prior years, when I'd coach people on running cycles. I stressed the importance of blood work, which we still need to do here. So pre, pre using, pre utilization of anything that you're using. And even with supplements, you need a baseline, you need to see where your starting point is. Now, if you take your baseline and you're, you're not in a good state, you should not start using anything. You should try to get yourself as right as you possibly can within the reason of, you know, if you have certain medical conditions, obviously there's certain things that are going to, you know, kind of supersede that. But you, if you're off, if you've got high liver values, high kidney, your blood pressure needs corrected, you know, things that are fixable, cholesterol, don't start using peds, don't, don't start using peptides. If you're not ready for them, unless they're used for a certain purpose medically, that they're correcting one of these problems, then it makes sense. But aside from that, if you're off and things aren't working well, ask yourself, well, I'm hormonally off, I'm imbalanced here. Is it potentially that? And then what about your diet? You cannot outwork a bad diet. I don't care how much you train, you eat like shit, you're going to, to have issues no matter what. Your weight may be stable, maybe not, but that doesn't give you any sort of bigger picture here. It doesn't show you anything. All that it does is potentially keep your weight where you want it, but it doesn't eradicate all of the problems that are going on internally. So you have to remember that it is so imperative that you get consistent with your diet. And unfortunately, that's the hardest thing to do. People struggle the most with diet consistency. It seems to me that the training part of it is a lot easier for people to lock in, which is also a key component here. But if you're not getting results, you have to look in the mirror and you have to take accountability and just fix it and then see and then look. And then there's people that are non responders to things. I've seen it with steroids, I've seen it with supplements, I've seen it with everything. Some people just don't respond to certain compounds or stimuli. I don't know why, nobody does. And certain things may just not be for you, that that's something you know internally, structurally, that, that depending on the person and what they're trying to use. But you have to, to always be temperate with anything. Just because somebody's getting one result does not necessarily mean that you will. And sometimes you can't believe everything that you read either. And see now there's always going to be rates of 70, 75%, 80% efficiency with certain things. And that's why studies are important and that's why hands on experience is important. On, on what? Like I'm able to observe with thousands of clients over the years that I've watched being able to converse with people all over the world that really understand and comprehend and have clinics and patients, they put these on. I've been privy and blessed to have that, especially over the past several years as my studies got more intricate and I've relied less on bro science and more on real science and living it and being around it and learning it. I never want to throw stones at anybody when it comes to information that you're getting. And I certainly am never going to act like I know everything because that is just not the reality. In fact, when I came to the conclusion that I know the least is when I know the most. Because then you realize you can always learn more and you're only brilliant because of who you associate yourself with. And that's the key. Who are you surrounding yourself with and learning from? And that, my friends, is going to propel you to learning more and understanding more. You need to learn and understand what you're using. I see so many people blindly using things and that could be another reason why you're using your peptides, supplements, whatever, are not working for you because you just don't understand them. Sometimes there's certain compounds like GHRP2, CJC1295, ipamorelin, where, you know, you don't want to eat around those, you want to be fasted. There are certain, you know, times a day that you need to be taking them or spread out more. And if you don't follow protocols on how these are going to be used and you think, oh, it doesn't matter, doesn't matter. There's a reason, there's a reason for half life, there's a reasons for structures of these molecules and compounds and how they work. There's a reason they need to be done properly and if they're not, you're not going to get the results. You could be reconstituting it wrong, not, not actually putting in the right amount of bacteriostatic water, not injecting the right amount. There's multitudes of reasons why they may not be Working for you. So understanding what you're doing and how to do it is also a big part of this. And it can if you don't, if you walk into this blindly and don't understand and you first look at how to reconstitute. I remember when I was learning, I was completely like looking at foreign language. It was like hieroglyphics to me. Then when you just take a minute to learn it, you realize how simple it is. And there's online calculators that can teach you how to do this everywhere. Just look up peptide calculators and they'll show you exactly what you need to do and how to do it and give you the math and break it down. I know some people are not math people, but that does all the work for you. And really it looks like a lot harder math than it actually is. It's really not sometimes. And I, I have done this a million times, so I say this from experience. We'll make things a lot harder than they actually are. Need to be. So we need to, to really keep in mind that sometimes things are a lot easier than they appear. But look, if you see all these other people getting results and you're not, these are, these are layers and steps on why you may not be getting yours. Just understand that every single person is different. We're wired different, we have different needs, necessities, conditions, allergies, life stages, backgrounds, you name it. There's differences amongst everybody. That's the beauty of God's creation. But it also means that you have to do you and learn you. So just because I sit up here and give you protocols or somebody else or the, the king or queen of peptides or supplements or whatever gives you some sort of breakdown, doesn't necessarily mean it's gonna work for you. It should, but it's not a guarantee. Just keep that in mind. God is the guarantee that we have. Right? But other things, they're not always guaranteed. And you have to be willing to learn. You gotta be willing to understand that life is trial and error and so is all of these things that we're doing. Don't get down, don't get disappointed. Don't blame everything. Take accountability. Learn, ask good questions, listen and research. And most importantly, prioritize your health. Don't be reckless. Don't, don't have this lack of comprehension of long term thinking. I see it far too often. Don't do that. Be careful. Do things that feel right to you. Don't, don't feel pushed, don't feel pressured. Do what you always feel is best and if something seems off or wrong, chances are if you have that in your gut, probably is. Doesn't mean it always is. But listen, don't push things, don't force things. Listen because whether you're faithful or not to God or have spirituality, he's trying to tell you. And when I don't listen, that's when everything goes wrong. But when I do, I always find even if it doesn't make sense at the time that it does later. It's kind of like when you're betting on a football game and you're looking at one of those lines and you're going man, this doesn't make any sort of sense. That's the first clue. Stay away. If it doesn't make sense. There's something there. Stay away. All right, my friends, that wraps up another one. Stay tuned for plenty more to come. Dylan Gelli signing off. Sam.
