Episode Overview

Hunter Williams dives into a packed Q&A session, tackling a spectrum of audience-submitted questions that span peptide therapies, hormone optimization, metabolic health, and biohacking protocols. With a no-nonsense, practical approach, Hunter provides direct advice rooted in deep personal, clinical, and research experience. True to the podcast’s “biological leverage” ethos, there’s an emphasis on applying cutting-edge science for real-world results—far beyond what conventional medicine explores.

Topics include GLP-1 agonists (like retatrutide, tirzepatide, semaglutide), testosterone replacement, hormone health in both men and women, autoimmune protocols, cognitive enhancers, longevity stacks, peptides for healing and cosmetic applications, and even the philosophy of content sharing.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Q&A Submission and AI Chatbot

• Hunter details his new AI tool trained only on his own material—a curated chatbot that answers questions based on past content.
  • “It literally will just match whatever your question is to anytime I’ve talked about that in a video.” —Hunter (02:54)
• Encourages listeners to submit questions via his links page.

---

2. GLP-1 Agonists & Weight Loss (Retatrutide, Semaglutide, Tirzepatide)

GLP-1s and Female Fertility

• GLP-1s seem to enhance fertility in women; possible temporary testosterone boost for obese men, not “healthy” ones.
  • “You’ve probably heard the term ‘Ozempic baby’… GLP-1s are definitely enhancing fertility on the female side.” —Hunter (03:09)
• Recommends stopping GLP-1s upon pregnancy; “doesn’t seem like it’s causing problems, but… I would stop.” (03:53)

Managing GLP-1–Side Effects

• Constipation: Add probiotics, fiber, prebiotics, and titrate magnesium citrate until effective.

  • “Everyone has a threshold dose of magnesium citrate that will work for you.” —Hunter (04:33)

• Gastric Emptying: Apple cider vinegar, aloe juice, glutamine, lemon juice (05:06).

Appetite and Hunger Issues on Retatrutide

• Increased hunger usually means an energy deficit; going above 4mg dose can help some.
• Consider stacking with tirzepatide, code, tesofensine for better appetite control (05:47).

Dopamine & GLP Pathways

• GLP-1 impacts dopamine the most; higher semaglutide doses risk more dopamine-related side effects (anhedonia, etc.). Retatrutide seems least affecting.

  • “GLP-1 receptor… is what is causing most of the dopamine downregulation…” (06:35)

• Supplements to counter dopamine issues: L-Tyrosine, 5-HTP, 9-ME-BC.

Fit/Carnivore Trainees & GLP-1s

• Retatrutide is favorable for protein-heavy, fit individuals, but low-carb/high-fat diets + GLP-1 compounds can massively slow digestion—fiber and carbs mitigate this.
  • “If you’re eating 300 grams of fat per day with no fiber… digestion is already slowed from the peptide.” (08:32)
• Each person should find what works, but flags the interaction.

Plateaus and Dosing

• Big weight loss goals (100+ lbs): higher doses (8-12mg) imperative for effectiveness (10:20).
• Young, lean females — appetite returns often means hormones like ghrelin/leptin prompting eating; sometimes more food is counterintuitively beneficial (09:52).

Allergic/Adverse Reactions

• Skin sensitivity/itching at high doses (~10 weeks in), topical magnesium can help (15:33).

---

3. Hormone Optimization & HRT

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)

• Doctors often under-dose (60mg/week) — will suppress natural production but not provide enough benefit.
  • “You shut down your natural production with a small dose… and then you just feel the same.” (26:14)
• Strongly recommends starting at 200mg/week for men, titrating down if needed.

Free Testosterone & SHBG

• Boron and zinc can reduce SHBG and raise free T (20:18).
• For fertility: hCG, HMG, and sometimes Kisspeptin/PT-141 enhance outcomes (20:53).

Female HRT:

• Injections considered best for estrogen/testosterone delivery; progesterone needs vary—adjust as needed, especially for sleep (22:36).
• Start with testosterone, then layer on progesterone, and add estrogen if symptoms or labs indicate (24:18).

Overtraining, Narcolepsy, and Low T (Men)

• Lower CNS stress, consider injectable L-carnitine (if not using testosterone or performance enhancers), possibly Testogen (21:46).

---

4. Peptide Stacks & Specialty Therapies

Growth Hormone and IGF-1

• For those intolerant of most GH peptides, bioidentical growth hormone is well-tolerated (27:33).
• IGF-1 cycles (4–6 weeks, higher doses OK) instead of long-term daily use due to risk of systemic IGF elevation (28:59).

Healing, Surgery Recovery, & Injury

• Go-to injury protocol: CLO blend + Cardilax (1-2mg) + PEG-MGF (200-400mcg); superior to BPC/TB-500 alone (31:06).
• VIP & Vilon peptides suited for systemic/chronic issues; KPV for most scenarios (32:10).

Cognitive Enhancement

• Stacks like Semax, Selank, Hexa, 9-ME-BC, with optional Noopept, support exam preparation (34:37).
• Adamax is a “stronger” Semax; P21 is a light neuromodulator, more like a gentle Cerebrolysin (34:48).

Hair, Skin, & Cosmetic Peptides

• GHK (oral/injectable) helps darken hair, reduce grays (35:39).
• Female hair thinning —check thyroid, androgens, nutrients first (36:03). GLP-1s can decrease thyroid, so replace if losing hair on these drugs.
• No peptide solution for large-scale loose skin post-weight-loss—may require surgery (36:37).

---

5. Autoimmune and Chronic Health Issues

• Lupus and RA: Thymosin Alpha-1, KPV, LL-37, Thymalin; hormone optimization critical for underlying support (33:39).
• Psoriasis and alopecia: topical ivermectin, topical KPV, GHK, possibly microdose GLP-1s (33:17).

---

6. Longevity & Metabolic Health

Longevity Stack

• “I plan on taking GLPs for the rest of my life…” —Hunter (14:30)
• Off-cycling GLPs: those who regain weight typically neglect hormones/thyroid. Proper stacking with thyroid, testosterone, GH peptides, SS-31, etc., improves maintenance off-GLPs (14:58).

Rapamycin

• Favorable but best reserved for age 50+; may blunt muscle via mTOR inhibition, so use with caution in the active/young.
  • “When we look at longevity, we want muscle… that would be the reason I have hesitation.” (42:19)

Heart, Joint, Bone Health

• Vessigen (blood vessel bioregulator), SGLT2 inhibitors, citrus bergamot for cholesterol/lipid management (37:28).
• GH peptides, VIP help with osteoporosis and bone density (39:07).

Supplements While on GLP-1s

• Multivitamin, taurine, magnesium, electrolytes, fish oil, D3/K2 recommended (18:08).

---

7. Peptide Practicalities & Philosophies

Dosing & Mixing

• Blends like CLO & GLOW are stable together; dosing (AM/PM) instructions are flexible—user’s discretion (49:03).
• Filtering research peptides: only necessary if you distrust the source and expect slight loss of product in filter (55:02).

Content Sharing Philosophy

Hunter encourages wide, open sharing of his content, translations, and “pirating” if it means the knowledge spreads.

• “I want my content to be all over the internet… If people are pirating my content, that actually makes me happy.” (51:04)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

On ineffective dosage:

• “You shut down your natural production with a small dose of testosterone… and then you just feel the same.” —Hunter (26:14)

On personalized protocols:

• “I really stay away from getting preachy on diet, because I think different diets work for different people.” —Hunter (07:43)

On autoimmunity and hormones:

• “People don’t understand how many times someone has lupus or RA and… are severely deficient in hormones. So the peptides will be very beneficial. But I would say—get your hormones checked as well.” —Hunter (33:39)

Content-sharing ethos:

• “I want my content to be all over the Internet… The more people that have access, the better.” —Hunter (51:04)

[Hunter Williams]

Hey everybody, this is Hunter Williams. I hope you're doing amazing. Wherever you might be in the world Today is the May 2026 Q&A video. So I have tons and tons of questions.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I actually printed them off because I

[Hunter Williams]

like reading these when I print them off here and I've got them grouped by category so I am going to do my best to get through all these and I have my pen because some of them are similar so I

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

don't need to go over them twice,

[Hunter Williams]

but I have grouped them by category so we are going to dig in the questions. As always. Before I get started on this, if you want to submit questions that will be on my links page. So you can always click on the links page that's in the description and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

then you can scroll down and it'll have a little place that you can

[Hunter Williams]

go to a form to submit a question to me that goes to a email inbox that I have set up

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

that I go through and look through all these.

[Hunter Williams]

It also gets put onto a document that I then take and I'm able

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to now use all of the large

[Hunter Williams]

language models to organize them by a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

theme and then I can go through

[Hunter Williams]

and then answer the question. So we're going to jump into that today. Obviously if you want to work directly

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

with me and have me actually answer

[Hunter Williams]

your question in a private message or in the forum, join the Axion Collective.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

As always, make sure you're on the email list because with censorship that is the best place to stay in touch with me.

[Hunter Williams]

Obviously I have all of my socials

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

up right now, but you never know when they are going to get taken

[Hunter Williams]

down because I think in this industry

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

it's only a matter of time, not

[Hunter Williams]

a matter of if they're going to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

get taken down, but I'm going to

[Hunter Williams]

stay positive and we're going to make

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

sure that we keep all of the ones that I currently have up.

[Hunter Williams]

But without further ado, let's get into it. Also, before I forget, I did make an AI tool so I basically have

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

this AI call it bot, I guess

[Hunter Williams]

that it is only trained on my material. So what I was able to do is I took all of the videos I've ever made and I uploaded it into this tool that I built myself and basically it will answer your question as if it were the videos.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Meaning that only draws on that data set.

[Hunter Williams]

So it's not like chat, GPT or Grok or Claude in the sense that

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

it only answers if I've answered that

[Hunter Williams]

question or talked about your question in a video. And so if you asked it, you know, like what color are unicorns on Mars?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

It's not going to know and it's not going to come up with an answer like Most of the AIs will.

[Hunter Williams]

So if you want to check that out, it's pretty cool. And it's just chat.Hunterwilliamshealth.com if you want to do it and go play around with that. So I've heard from a lot of people and they say they really like it so far and I've seen some of the answers obviously I tested a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

bunch myself and the answers seem to be pretty good. It's not going off the reservation and saying things that I don't talk about. It literally will just match whatever your question is to anytime I've talked about

[Hunter Williams]

that in a video, whether it's a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

podcast, solo video Q and a video, live stream, whatever, and it will answer that.

[Hunter Williams]

So without further ado, let's start it. First one pretty relevant to my life right now. Kathleen says GOP's infertility and mid-20s woman wanting to lose weight before pregnancy. I do think this is something you've probably heard the term ozempic baby and so I do think this is a thing. GLP1s are definitely enhancing fertility on the female side. The male side I think is yet to be determined how well that's doing. We know transiently some of the GOP seem to raise testosterone levels in guys that are obese.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I don't think it's doing anything into guys that are actually healthy. A weight standpoint, you're not getting a boop a bump in testosterone from the glp.

[Hunter Williams]

But in women does seem to be enhancing fertility outcomes. In women, Protocol wise I would just say use whatever you need to to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

lose the weight to get to your goal weight.

[Hunter Williams]

But then also too, I would stop the GLP once you get pregnant.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Um, I don't think it's probably the best thing to be on the GLP

[Hunter Williams]

while pregnant, although I know people are doing that and it doesn't seem like it's causing any problems, but I personally,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

uh, hopefully, fingers crossed, when my wife

[Hunter Williams]

does get pregnant, uh, she will be

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

discontinuing a glp, albeit she's on a low dose.

[Hunter Williams]

Next question is from colley. He says GLP1 constipates me what to do instead. I mean, you could obviously go off of the glp. My recommendation would be a probiotic, a prebiotic, a fiber supplement in addition to the prebiotic.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And then also make sure you're on a really good dose of magnesium because that will help as well.

[Hunter Williams]

Honestly, magnesium citrate. I always tell people there, everyone has a threshold dose of magnesium citrate that

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

will work for you. Might be 300 milligrams, might be 600 milligrams, might be 1200 milligrams, might be 2500 milligrams, might be 5000 milligrams.

[Hunter Williams]

At some level, you will evade constipation with magnesium citrate.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Again, it's going to be uncomfortable, but

[Hunter Williams]

I would rather be uncomfortable and not constipated than constipated and uncomfortable. So that would be my recommendation.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

But honestly, those things right there usually help speed things along.

[Hunter Williams]

Um, also, too, for people that do

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

have sort of like gastric emptying issues,

[Hunter Williams]

apple cider vinegar, aloe juice, glutamine and lemon juice.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

If you just make a little concoction

[Hunter Williams]

of those together, they work really well.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And I do that myself sometimes. All right.

[Hunter Williams]

Hunger increased on weta retta with no loss. I talk about this a lot. I think when it comes to hunger

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

increasing on retta, it's probably because you're in an energy deficit.

[Hunter Williams]

And so the easiest answer for me is like, if.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

If you want to, you can go up on the dose. Now, that doesn't mean it's going to fix the hunger in all cases, but

[Hunter Williams]

in a lot of cases, it seems like the 2 to 4 milligram dose

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

in a lot of people makes them hungrier once they get over the 4 milligram dose.

[Hunter Williams]

It doesn't have the same effect, but some people does. And I always say you can always add in a little bit of tirzepatide with your retatrutide.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You can always add in a little bit of code. You can always add in some tesofensine. We forget about tesofensine and how good that is.

[Hunter Williams]

So that would be my recommendation there. When we look at. This is a good question from Dan. He says when we look at dopamine and reward pathway effects across Redditors and sema.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Are there differences?

[Hunter Williams]

In my opinion, what it seems like is that the GLP1 pathway seems to be modulating the dopamine the most and so higher doses of semaglutide because obviously that's just GLP1 seem like they are

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

going to cause more of the issues with dopamine.

[Hunter Williams]

Thus higher doses of tertiapatide seem like it would cause less than semaglutide.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Milligram for milligram and retrutide same thing,

[Hunter Williams]

milligram for milligram, probably less. However, a lot of people can get dopamine issues with all three of them. So really comes down to the person.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I think the GLP1 receptor in my experience is what is causing most of the dopamine downregulation in people that end

[Hunter Williams]

up having issues with it.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Some people that's actually a really good thing because it keeps them from being addicted to whatever they're addicted to.

[Hunter Williams]

But when we talk about dopamine it seems like retta seems to be the least affecting of dopamine, although still affecting it.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So ters a little bit more and then obviously seag glue tide the most.

[Hunter Williams]

But I've talked to people that have

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

taken all three that have had issues,

[Hunter Williams]

so you kind of have to use it. And then when we talk about dopamine and what we can do, like if you want to stay on the glp, we could obviously use something like a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

teso fencing to help. There's actually L tyrosine that could help. 5 HTP could be beneficial. 9 ME BC could be beneficial. So there are things that are dopamine increasing type supplements that you could use.

[Hunter Williams]

Next question from L or Eli. Excuse me, Is retta the best GOP

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

for fit and carnivore protein heavy trainees doing body recomp?

[Hunter Williams]

I think it is. Although I would be leery of doing

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

the carnivore diet on Reddit or a keto diet on Reddit and here's why

[Hunter Williams]

you want to do that and that works for you, by all means, please do that. I really stay away from getting preachy

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

on diet because I think different diets

[Hunter Williams]

work for different people.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You should do what you want.

[Hunter Williams]

However, when we take a compound that slows down digestion, it is beneficial to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

have fiber alongside that compound.

[Hunter Williams]

Also when we look at carnivore diets, keto diets, what are they typically heavier in fats? When you have a lot of fats

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

that also slows digestion.

[Hunter Williams]

And so I have seen in my

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

own experience than people that I'VE worked

[Hunter Williams]

with people that have carbohydrates, particularly clean

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

carbohydrates, fruits, vegetables, rice, potatoes, that actually helps their digestion feel better. Their body is more insulin sensitive because

[Hunter Williams]

of the peptide and they don't have the issues.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Whereas if you're eating 300 grams of

[Hunter Williams]

fat per day with no fiber, that

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

is going to dramatically slow digestion on top of digestion that is already slowed from the peptide.

[Hunter Williams]

And so in my opinion that is not the best thing. However, you got to do what's best for you. And some people that diet is the best for them. It would just be something that I would reconsider if you are doing that diet and you're introducing a GLP peptide because we are not dealing with the same tool set or same sample set

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

as we would be if a person was not on those peptides.

[Hunter Williams]

And so that's my opinion around that.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

But got to do what works best for you.

[Hunter Williams]

Karen says five weeks of retta titrated to 1.75 milligrams. Appetite suppression is gone. Young, low body fat female up the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

dose, add caggery or switch to ters.

[Hunter Williams]

Well, I always like to remind people a lot of times the hunger is

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

there for a reason.

[Hunter Williams]

And especially if someone is low body fat, they are inducing a caloric deficit. You're having a blowback. When we look at ghrelin and leptin to which the body is going to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

start sending signals through those ghrelin and leptin hormones that you need to eat.

[Hunter Williams]

And a lot of cases that's what's

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

happening is we're burning more calories, we're usually eating less.

[Hunter Williams]

And so the body is trying to signal you, hey, I need some food here. And so that's oftentimes what's happening. Obviously you can either eat more food, a lot of times you can eat more food and you still lose weight. So it kind of sounds counterintuitive, but

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

you eat more food, but you're actually burning more calories.

[Hunter Williams]

I think that's a good strategy. You could obviously add cragolantide, which works

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

on a different pathway via amylin to suppress appetite.

[Hunter Williams]

Or, or you could add trapide, switch

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to zaptide, whatever you wanna do. So kind of depends, but those would be my recommendations.

[Hunter Williams]

Karen says lost access to semaglutide, started

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

retrutide at 2 milligrams, no results. And I need to lose 100 pounds.

[Hunter Williams]

Unfortunately for someone that needs to lose a hundred plus pounds, you really are

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

going to have to increase the dose. And I Think this is where we

[Hunter Williams]

talk about the higher doses of retrutide

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

of tide, the 8, 1012 milligram dosing.

[Hunter Williams]

This would be the appropriate use case for those. So I make no illusions that someone could take 2 milligrams of retrude. They need to lose a hundred pounds.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

They're probably not going to lose the weight as fast as they want to.

[Hunter Williams]

I think they'll still lose weight, lose weight, but they will probably have to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

titrate over time, I would say like over an 8 to 12 week window up into those higher doses to get the results that they want.

[Hunter Williams]

Beth said, can you add MA to 125 mg of retrutide for more glucagon? Yeah, you definitely could. I have not done that. I've not combined those two specifically but you probably could. I would just be aware, probably going

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to get an increase in heart rate alongside that. So just be advised that that's possible

[Hunter Williams]

but I would not have such an issue doing that.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Let's see, talked about that already.

[Hunter Williams]

Dwayne says 61 year old started retta was on digestive enzymes with delayed gastric emptying.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Do enzymes hinder retta?

[Hunter Williams]

No, I would say they are actually very beneficial. So in my experience I use digestive

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

enzymes every single meal.

[Hunter Williams]

Now whether or not that's a good thing I don't know but I've been

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

doing that for years, even before GLPs, just because they help my stomach and help my digestion. Especially if you are eating more protein. Seems like I absorb the protein better but maybe that's anecdotal on my part

[Hunter Williams]

but I would say that digestive enzymes

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

are very beneficial alongside of a glp.

[Hunter Williams]

It's actually something I don't really talk about.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Probably enough of how beneficial digestive enzymes can be with your glp.

[Hunter Williams]

Also another compound called betaine, similar to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

digestive enzymes works really well and I take that all the time.

[Hunter Williams]

So great question and something I am reminded to talk about more. Next one.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Sorry, I'm just going through some of these that we already talked about.

[Hunter Williams]

Kayla says I did an eight week RIC cycle now off what to do to keep momentum until next cycle. So kind of the same thing, you can keep doing it, you can come off of it, you can throw in

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

a different one like a Tessofensine, like a Cide, like an Orphor Glipron and

[Hunter Williams]

go from there and so you don't always have to come off after eight weeks.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I would need to know more situationally

[Hunter Williams]

there, but those are kind of What

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I would think

[Hunter Williams]

question here. Someone switched from ters to retta and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

they had really bad anger, anxiety and irritability, even just at 400 micrograms.

[Hunter Williams]

Went back to Tide and was fine. Loved the retta. Otherwise, why it's interesting. It could be just obviously if you're

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

doing finotraptide in the reta, the difference is the glucagon. So potentially something there, whether it was the calorie deficit, whether it was the

[Hunter Williams]

energy deficit, your body didn't like that. So I would. When I hear anger, anxiety and irritability,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I'd like to think, okay, hormonally, what's going on there? And potentially maybe there was a negative cascade hormonally created.

[Hunter Williams]

So that would be my only guess.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Guesstimate there.

[Hunter Williams]

But again, if you do good on

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

tirzaptide, I don't think there's any shame on using tirzaptide over retrutide.

[Hunter Williams]

I always tell people, I think you

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

can get all the fat loss you need on Terepatite alone.

[Hunter Williams]

Greg, 58 years old, lost £90 over three years. Good job. And then plateaued type 2 diabetic on Manjaro.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

What is the best for fat loss and muscle regain?

[Hunter Williams]

First thing I'm always going to tell

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

people it's hormone optimization, particularly if you lose that much weight.

[Hunter Williams]

There is a neuroendocrine cascade that is

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

created through your hormones that usually downregulates

[Hunter Williams]

from losing that much weight because the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

body was in our starvation period.

[Hunter Williams]

And so that would be my recommendation

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

for fat loss and muscle gain long

[Hunter Williams]

term is to have hormones in check

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and then obviously you can go to

[Hunter Williams]

a growth hormone peptide and then potentially

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

something like a Motsi to help as well.

[Hunter Williams]

Henrik says, why do GLP stop working when you cycle off and back on cycles per year off?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

SS31. What is my longevity sack?

[Hunter Williams]

Well, get into the longevity stack. But I will say when people cycle

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

off of GLPs, obviously a lot of these people are regaining the weight.

[Hunter Williams]

I think it's a lot of things.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

One, obviously you're just not going to burn as much calories and eat less

[Hunter Williams]

when you're off of a glp.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Kind of makes sense, right?

[Hunter Williams]

But I will say a lot of these people are not foundationally addressing their hormones, their thyroid and all the other things that would help them stay lean

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

once they get to their goal weight.

[Hunter Williams]

And so again, do we want to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

rely on a GLP? I plan on taking GLPs for the rest of my life.

[Hunter Williams]

However, I would say a lot of times these People are not doing the foundational things and this is good because I get so many questions about this

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and it's definitely a thing of like when I cycle off a glp, nothing else is working.

[Hunter Williams]

A lot of cases, these people are

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

not on testosterone, they're not on thyroid, they're not on growth hormone or a growth hormone peptide or on matzi or on SS31.

[Hunter Williams]

And so when all those things are

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

in place, typically they tend to do better coming off the glp.

[Hunter Williams]

And and then you can go down

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to cycling a micro dose of a GLP throughout the year and get the benefits without having to do high doses.

[Hunter Williams]

Stacy said 10 weeks on Retta, last few shots got red and itchy with risk. Skin sensitivity. Do you have an allergy to stop? Well, with the, the itchiness it potentially could be an allergy to it. I would say the skin sensitivity is

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

something I've experienced and I know a lot of people experience in higher doses

[Hunter Williams]

and usually it's around that 10 week

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

mark that tends to kick in.

[Hunter Williams]

Why it happens, I don't know. We don't really know yet.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

There's nothing I could find in the research to indicate as to what is going on there.

[Hunter Williams]

However, I have seen topical magnesium do

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

really well for people.

[Hunter Williams]

So that would be something I would look at if you are bothered by the skin sensitivity.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Because that worked for me and I've heard it work well for other people too.

[Hunter Williams]

Rachel says doctors mixing GLP1 with B12

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

or BPC in the same syringe opinion.

[Hunter Williams]

I think the B12 is probably fine BPC.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I haven't seen anything to confirm or deny whether it is stable with that.

[Hunter Williams]

Although I do think that a lot

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

of compounding pharmacies are doing this to get around the quote unquote patent on the GLPs.

[Hunter Williams]

The interesting thing about patents on GLPs is that they were all discovered and originated from the nih. NIH is taxpayer funded now. Eli Lilly brings those drugs to market

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and then commercializes them. But they were all discovered and originated

[Hunter Williams]

from a taxpayer funded organization. So it's kind of funny the amount

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

of money that's made on GOP's when it was actually American tax dollars that discovered the drug. So stick that in your pipe and smoke it. And a little bit of food for thought there, but kind of funny how this all works, isn't it?

[Hunter Williams]

Marcy says GLPs cause anhedonia for me.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Tried semators. Read a low dose. What to use for fat loss.

[Hunter Williams]

Well, if you were going to remove

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

GLPs from your stack because of the anonia. There are things that I mentioned earlier around dopamine that I think could think

[Hunter Williams]

you could try, but but we talk about anhedonia.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Tessofensine I think could be a great thing.

[Hunter Williams]

Some people get anhedonia on cragolintide, some people don't.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So maybe we could try that. And I would say from there there's obviously mod C, there's growth hormone peptides,

[Hunter Williams]

there's BAM15, there's S L U PP332, there's albuterol, there's all these things. If you go to a video I

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

have, it's called the non GLP fat loss tier list. There's all these things that we actually can use. They're not GOPs to help with fat loss as well.

[Hunter Williams]

Ashley says do you need to be fasted when taking foxo4dri seems to be beneficial.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I don't know if there's a definitive

[Hunter Williams]

answer on that, but do we need to go off of all other peptides

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

while taking Foxo 4 Dri?

[Hunter Williams]

I don't know where this originated from. My personal experience is that you don't need to be off of all your other peptides. I guess in theory, because it's a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

senolytic, you don't want to be working

[Hunter Williams]

on your cells with other peptides when you're clearing out senescent cells.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

But I don't know why that would matter because if you're working on other cells that are not senescent and the Foxo 4 is clearing out senescent cells, I don't know that you need to be all over or all off all other peptides.

[Hunter Williams]

So not sure where that came from, but in my experience I've used Foxo

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

4 in short cycles alongside my other

[Hunter Williams]

peptides and I felt the effects and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

it seemed to work fine.

[Hunter Williams]

Oral vitamins recommended while on Retta from Pamela I will say definitely a daily multivitamin. I use Thorn right now, definitely taurine, definitely some magnesium, definitely lots and lots

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

of electrolytes, definitely some fish oil, definitely vitamin D3 K2, which I would do anyway.

[Hunter Williams]

So basically the answer is everything that you would do without Reddit you would want to do, but you may need

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to supplement a little bit more, especially when it comes to the electrolytes.

[Hunter Williams]

Sabina says on 30 milligrams of desiccated thyroid after 1 reticycle T4 lower second cycle isn't working.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Did Retta affect thyroid?

[Hunter Williams]

It definitely can and so I don't know what the the T4 number was here, but it definitely can.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And so that's where you may need to bump up to 60mg which is more of the standard dose of armor or desiccated thyroid.

[Hunter Williams]

So that would be my recommendation. Microdosing Retta 1mg per week for longevity.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Stack low dose tesofencin at 160 micrograms for energy. Don't get lift from Retta.

[Hunter Williams]

Yeah, I think that's a great thing.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You can definitely get a lot of energy from tesofensine. You may need to grow up to higher to 250, 50 micrograms though.

[Hunter Williams]

Question here about TERS versus Retta in women. Studies show women lose more on T's

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

interaction with estrogen potentially. I don't know.

[Hunter Williams]

I think that's one of those things like maybe that's just playing out.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I don't think we have enough data

[Hunter Williams]

yet, but maybe I've, I've talked about that in the past of like the sex differences on gps. Seems like sometimes women need more, sometimes

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

men need more though. So I think it really just depends

[Hunter Williams]

on the person question on GOP's and sex and libido, does it affect it?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Yeah. And a lot of people because in my opinion the dopamine, it can definitely do it.

[Hunter Williams]

Although I've seen it the opposite too where a lot of people have an increased libido and a lot of times

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

it's because they're getting rid of inflammation in the body. So it kind of goes both ways.

[Hunter Williams]

All right, let's move on to some hormones and hrt. So. Rebecca says 53 year old told, not a TRT candidate.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Well, I don't think that's probably accurate from your doctor.

[Hunter Williams]

But anyway, SHBG is 55, free T is low.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

How to lower SHBG and raise free T?

[Hunter Williams]

The easy answer would be you could

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

take boron and zinc. Typically would do it. But I don't know why someone would not be a TRT candidate.

[Hunter Williams]

A lot of times you'll hear hear this for people.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

If they have had a history of cancer, they're not a candidate. But in a lot of cases that might be the best thing for them. So that would be my answer there.

[Hunter Williams]

A lot of these are just asking where to find a doctor, which I'll

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

have more info on coming soon because I'm working on a company on that.

[Hunter Williams]

Jo Joseph says for male fertility I

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

have low T, benign pituitary adenoma, off TRT for 9 months. Told to try Kiss Peptin PT141.

[Hunter Williams]

You could try that. I would actually add an HCG and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

HMG though for those specific things.

[Hunter Williams]

Lori asked about Kiss Peptin for men and women. Hormone regulation of female fertility I would say and I've been experimenting this.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Taylor and I have a little bit ourselves.

[Hunter Williams]

Kiss peptin 30 minutes before sexual intercourse

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

does seem to help with fertility. So we've been trying that. Fingers crossed, we'll see what happens.

[Hunter Williams]

But it does seem to help with that. I would say it is not a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

long term solution for hormone replacement.

[Hunter Williams]

So fertility potentially enhancing. Yes. But in terms of getting our hormones

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

where we need them to be, I don't see that as a long term solution.

[Hunter Williams]

And also a lot of people too

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

get a libido boost from Kisspeptin as well and so you could try it for that.

[Hunter Williams]

Dane says 30 year old male narcolepsy

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and IBS training for high rocks.

[Hunter Williams]

Can excessive work cause low free T.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And then obviously in this case it's drug tested so they don't want to use trt.

[Hunter Williams]

So how would I raise free tea? Honestly I would do as much as I could to lower the nervous system

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

stress which is happening a lot of times in over training and also to injectable L carnitine if you couldn't use testosterone for any reason or any other performance enhancing drug.

[Hunter Williams]

L carnitine is not banned by any bodies that I know of.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So you could do that and that would probably be the, the best answer.

[Hunter Williams]

Guess you could try Testogen too cause

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

it's technically not banned but I don't know that it does that much.

[Hunter Williams]

Ashley says 56 year old female on

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

HRT training five times a week. Her levels or hormone levels drop drastically. Patch versus cream. Um, should she increase her progesterone from 200 milligrams?

[Hunter Williams]

I think injections are always gonna be

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

the best way whether it's testosterone or estradiol.

[Hunter Williams]

Always think injections will better and you can potentially experiment. Every woman's gonna be different. Some women need 100 milligrams of progesterone,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

some women need 800 milligrams of progesterone.

[Hunter Williams]

So I would just, I would just experiment with it.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

But if you're not sleeping well I would definitely go up on the progesterone.

[Hunter Williams]

Next one. 64 year old female want to inject tea. But your approach won't suit me.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Gel only grows facial hair. Need libido and energy.

[Hunter Williams]

I don't know why the approach wouldn't suit you. Reach out to me and I could

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

probably help you find a doctor that will give you injectable testosterone as a woman? Because it seems to really help in most cases.

[Hunter Williams]

John says 63 year old slim fitness enthusiast. Should I take dim, which is basically a herbal aromatase inhibitor, so it's not

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

as strong as the chemical aromatase inhibitors like anastrozole or like aromasin or tamoxifen or whatever.

[Hunter Williams]

But should I take dim? I personally would not. I don't know that taking dim is

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

going to do anything. It's not really going to boost your testosterone.

[Hunter Williams]

Sure it does reduce the expression of aromatase, but I think that metformin is

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

a better aromatase inhibitor for people that are trying to get the intended effect. And not only does it not harm you like the aromatase inhibitor does, but it makes you healthier. So that would be my recommendation for that specific one. All right, talked about that one.

[Hunter Williams]

So we've got perimenopausal woman, low estrogen,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

progesterone on blood work, but no symptoms.

[Hunter Williams]

Already on T. Get ahead of menopause. Yeah, I would say if you're already

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

on testosterone, definitely start progesterone, you might

[Hunter Williams]

not need the estrogen. So but you vary potentially well, especially

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

if you're already taking testosterone and it's low. And so I would say potentially you want to add in estrogen but definitely progesterone before you would do the estrogen, see how you feel. And then potentially add in estradiol on top of that.

[Hunter Williams]

40s to 50s. Perimenopausal woman, undecided on HRT and peptides,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

where to start, how much of blood or how much to start with? Blood test first, obviously get your blood work done first. That's going to kind of lead you into the right direction that you need to.

[Hunter Williams]

But my opinion is to start testosterone before you start a bunch of different peptides.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I think GLPs are probably fine to start, you know, but it's again, it's not gonna fix the foundation.

[Hunter Williams]

So I like doing that, but. Oh wow. So Shane is a 47 year old male starting TRT game day, I guess.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Game day Men's health told him starting

[Hunter Williams]

at 60 milligrams a week. Friend said to start at 200, 2:50. What should I do?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

My current testosterone is 2:25.

[Hunter Williams]

So uh, I definitely would not do 60 milligrams a week.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And here's why.

[Hunter Williams]

This is something I feel like I've talked about before.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Probably not enough though.

[Hunter Williams]

So when it comes to testosterone, 60 milligrams a week, here's what in my

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

opinion that's gonna do to you, your

[Hunter Williams]

total testosterone is 225 right now. So not bad, but. Or, excuse me, it is bad. But it can be fixed.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

It is bad. Mince my words there.

[Hunter Williams]

It is bad.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You want to be fixed?

[Hunter Williams]

Here's what will happen.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

If you start 60 milligrams a week,

[Hunter Williams]

you're going to shut down your natural

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

production, but your total testosterone will stay

[Hunter Williams]

at 2:25, probably because you're not gonna

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

be getting enough to actually reach therapeutic level.

[Hunter Williams]

So I don't know why doctors do this, and I know Game Day is

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

a franchise, so like, they probably have different doctors practicing different ways at each one.

[Hunter Williams]

I don't know why they do this though, because it's kind of what you're doing is you're shutting down your natural

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

production by taking exogenous testosterone, but then

[Hunter Williams]

you're not taking enough to get the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

levels to where you're going to feel good.

[Hunter Williams]

So I think net, you just look, you're, you're not changing anything.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You're shutting down your natural production with a small dose of testosterone. That's not gonna make you feel better. And then you just feel the same

[Hunter Williams]

and then you've shut down your natural production. So my opinion, like your friend told

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

you, is to go up to 200-200mg

[Hunter Williams]

per week and then go from there. So it's really sad.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I did, I highlighted this one.

[Hunter Williams]

Cause I, I wanted to talk about

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

this because this is what's going on.

[Hunter Williams]

I think even 100mg to 120mg a week is a lot of times too low to.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Because you shut down your natural production and it doesn't get your levels into therapeutic ranges. So I like to start guys at 200 milligrams per week.

[Hunter Williams]

If that's too high, you can always

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

back down the dose.

[Hunter Williams]

But in a lot of cases, that's

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

actually exactly where they need to be. And I know really good doctors that

[Hunter Williams]

I learned that from and that's their practice because they start at 200, but it's too high.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You can always take it down.

[Hunter Williams]

But if you start at 60 and it's too low, then you don't feel better. And then you're like, well, I go

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

up, I go up to 100. Do I feel anything? No. 120. Do I feel anything?

[Hunter Williams]

Maybe. Okay. And then you go in this like

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

6 month long process where you basically just wasted your time.

[Hunter Williams]

So start at 200, go up and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

down from there is how I like to think about it.

[Hunter Williams]

All right, let's Move on to some GH peptides and talking about igf. All right, Common question that I get all the time. So Catia says systemic reaction to Tessa

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and most GH peptides except IGF LR3 permanent, potentially.

[Hunter Williams]

So what I would do is move

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to growth hormone because most people with

[Hunter Williams]

growth hormone being bioidentical, can use, especially

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

in the case of a woman, half

[Hunter Williams]

an iu, one IU per day, and do really well on that.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And it's going to work better than all the GH peptides.

[Hunter Williams]

And so that's kind of. I mean, I know it's not the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

answer a lot of people want to

[Hunter Williams]

hear, but that's kind of like, okay,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

if you have this immune reaction to these, we'll just take the real thing. And most people don't have any bad reaction to it.

[Hunter Williams]

You will have to like, kind of

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

figure out your dose. All right.

[Hunter Williams]

Frank says taking three I use a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

GH five days a week, T R T 15mg daily.

[Hunter Williams]

Should I bump the GH to three

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and a half to four I use for fat loss, kick or restart AOD?

[Hunter Williams]

I don't know that going up from three to four I use is really

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

gonna do that much more for fat loss.

[Hunter Williams]

And so I would probably add in

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

some of the GLPs, maybe. Sure, if you wanna do the AOD, maybe a mat C, maybe an SLU, maybe A, maybe a BAM 15 and

[Hunter Williams]

then kind of go from there.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So

[Hunter Williams]

Anya says young female using IGF to rebuild muscle 20 to 50 micrograms

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

pre post workout, 2 to 3 times per week, 612 months. Reasonable daily only.

[Hunter Williams]

No, that's reasonable except for the fact that it's six to 12 months. What I would actually do is just do that in like four to six week cycles. And you could probably go up on the dose closer to like 100 micrograms per dose. Doing it pre and post workout. And so like, you would build up

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to like, maybe the total daily dose would be 200 micrograms on those two to three days per week.

[Hunter Williams]

But the reason is, I think after four to six weeks, you really don't get that much of an effect. And I like to cycle that one

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

off just because IGF levels will go

[Hunter Williams]

systemically and we don't want to artificially

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

inflate those for a very long period of time because we just don't really know what's going to happen from there.

[Hunter Williams]

Lauren says Liquid MK777 versus pill form.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Is there a difference in absorption?

[Hunter Williams]

My experience, there's not. I just take the pills.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Cause a lot of times the liquid tastes nasty. So I think you get whatever one you want and then just go from there again.

[Hunter Williams]

MK777. I make no illusions that we have clinical data on that.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

This is literally just anecdotal experience.

[Hunter Williams]

So just know when you're taking that. I've taken it.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

It worked really well. I liked it better than MK677.

[Hunter Williams]

But we have no papers, no. No rodent papers, no human papers.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So we don't really know what it is. We don't really have any verification. It's just kind of one of these

[Hunter Williams]

things that made its way into the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

research world and now we have it out there and it's circulating.

[Hunter Williams]

So Kat says, running IPA and CJC.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

No DAC. Five on, two off. Dinner at 6, 30, asleep at 9. Okay to set alarm to inject four hours after dinner.

[Hunter Williams]

Sure, if you want to. I think you. If you eat dinner at 9, it's

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

fine to take right before bed. That should be enough time to help with that.

[Hunter Williams]

There is. That makes me think there is this question about if you're on a GLP and you're taking a growth hormone peptide. With the GLP slowing gastric emptying, do now you have to wait extra long to take your growth hormone peptide because

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

your digestion is slowed. I don't think it's that big of a deal, to be honest. Like, if you're waiting two hours, you're probably fine. You just want to make sure that your insulin and blood sugar are coming back to normal. So, um, check your blood sugar. If it's back to normal, you're probably fine. You want circulating levels of insulin to be lower. Cause obviously that's more helpful.

[Hunter Williams]

But I think it's one of those things. Obviously you want it to be as close to a fastest state as possible.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

What? I really wouldn't. I wouldn't worry about it that much. To the point of it not working.

[Hunter Williams]

All right, let's talk some injury healing and recovery. Frank says, confused about injury stacks?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

There's too many options your go to protocol.

[Hunter Williams]

Pretty much all injury questions can be answered like this. Take the CLO blend with Cardilax at

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

1 to 2 milligrams and Peg MGF at 200 to 400 micrograms.

[Hunter Williams]

Those six peptides right there will do

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

wonders for injury so much. Even more beyond BPC and TB500 alone because you have the KPV, the GHK, the Cardilax and the PEG MGF.

[Hunter Williams]

Michael says for skin removal surgery, after

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

100 pounds Retta assisted weight loss. What would be a healing stack?

[Hunter Williams]

Pre and post I would do those

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

ones just there that I talked about. So CLO plus CarlX plus PG MGF would be my answer. Talked about that one. Another surgery question.

[Hunter Williams]

Paula says healing peptide differences. So when would you use VIP, KPV

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and Vlon instead of BPC and TB500?

[Hunter Williams]

Uh, I think VIP and Vlon would

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

be more in like the systemic chronic

[Hunter Williams]

issues like autoimmune rheumatoid arthritis. Things KPV gonna work good in any situation. But for Vlon and Vip they're a little bit more Vip, more on the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

inflammation, Vlon more on the immune side of things.

[Hunter Williams]

So you could use those for healing

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

but it would be more like on

[Hunter Williams]

the chronic healing, chronic healing, mold type

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

issues, autoimmune type issues and things like that.

[Hunter Williams]

Speaking of which, let's talk about some autoimmune issues. So John says for thymus alpha 1 for rheumatoid arthritis, when on a T

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

cell biologic, can you use that?

[Hunter Williams]

Yeah, I think you would be fine.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Obviously you want to talk with your doctor, but I think that would be fine to to use there.

[Hunter Williams]

Brad says on ters, ghk, bpc, nad, clo, mat C feel great but don't

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

know which is working. Yeah, I don't know what the question was there. Sorry, that one might not have got summarized right.

[Hunter Williams]

Then he says autoimmune episode. Huh?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I don't know.

[Hunter Williams]

Chelsea says alopecia, Ariata and scalp psoriasis

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

on CLO, GHK, topical TA1 blends versus individuals microdose GLP instead of metformin.

[Hunter Williams]

I would definitely say a micro dose of glp.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You could still use metformin if you want to.

[Hunter Williams]

For the psoriasis I would try topical ivermectin.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

In this case it seems to work well.

[Hunter Williams]

Could also try some topical KPV to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

see if that works well in addition to the ghk. So those would be the first things that I would add on and see if those work.

[Hunter Williams]

Let's see, autoimmune protocols for lupus and ra. I think the, the standard answers are

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

going to be Thymus Alpha 1, Kpv LL37 thymin and in a lot of cases too, those people need hormone replacement. People don't understand how many times someone has lupus RA miss. And a lot of times those people are severely deficient in hormones. So the peptides obviously will be very beneficial. But I would say get your hormones checked as well.

[Hunter Williams]

Recurring theme of today.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I know it gets Annoying when I

[Hunter Williams]

talk about that, but I do always

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

want to, like, make sure I contextualize that around those things because hormones do so much.

[Hunter Williams]

Dylan says Thymus Alpha 1 for immune function. I just had a keloid removed.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Does Thymos Alpha 1 cause fibrosis or am I confusing with TB4?

[Hunter Williams]

I think you are confusing with Thymus and Beta 4, but it does not cause fibrosis. It would be anti fibrotic in that case.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So I think both would be beneficial in the case of a keloid.

[Hunter Williams]

Someone is. All right, let's talk about some cognitive issues. So Tammy says she's studying for an exam. Stack of C Max length, a hexa and nine mebc. Thoughts?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I think those are all amazing. I think those will help a lot.

[Hunter Williams]

The only thing you may want to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

add in is new pept, but I think this could all be beneficial.

[Hunter Williams]

Elisa asked about Adamax, C Max or

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

P21, what each does.

[Hunter Williams]

So Adamax is kind of an enhanced version of C Max.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

It's gonna be a stronger version of

[Hunter Williams]

cmax.p21 think about that is more of like a neuromodulator, so it's not going to be a nootropic. I kind of think about P21. This is not chemically true, but like, think about it as like a light

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

version of cerebral iacin, because to me it works very similar, but just more of like a light version of it. And so that would be my recommendations there. Those are only cognitive ones, so not too much on those.

[Hunter Williams]

So about some cosmetic ones, which is not my area of expertise. As always, I tell people to talk to my wife about that.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And again, I could use some help

[Hunter Williams]

in that department too. So I do not claim to really

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

know anything about cosmetic stuff nor to be a walking billboard for those things.

[Hunter Williams]

However, I'll do my best to answer questions. Michael says how to reverse growing hair? I will say me, when I take oral and injectable ghk, it does seem

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to darken my hair, especially because sometimes when I take melan tan and glutathione, that can cause my hair to be a little bit lighter or get grays. So that would be my recommendation for that.

[Hunter Williams]

Causey says Peptide for thinning hair for my sister can be a lot of things.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

In the case of a woman, it could be their thyroid function, it could be a nutrient deficiency, uh, it could be an androgen thing. And so my first thing that I tell people is get your thyroid checked.

[Hunter Williams]

A lot of times if your thyroid

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

is slowed down, that can cause hair loss and if you're supporting the thyroid with desiccated thyroid or thyroid by a regulator, that can be very beneficial.

[Hunter Williams]

Same thing if your hair is falling out on a glp.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

A lot of times that's because the GLP is shutting down thyroid function because you are starving yourself and you need to replace some of that to help with hair loss. The hair loss

[Hunter Williams]

Jerry says 6 year

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

old female on red has started Glow. Want to help with loose skin from 20 pounds weight loss.

[Hunter Williams]

Is there a peptide for loose skin? Unfortunately there's not. And to go back to the question

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

earlier about the skin removal surgery, in a lot of cases you might just to have to have cosmetic surgery to get rid of the excess skin.

[Hunter Williams]

Laura says, I got a melasma started

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

after my 101 spread after a tanning salon visit.

[Hunter Williams]

Why? I don't know why specifically. This does happen in some people. So this is why I say start with a really low dose of melanin, see what it does.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

In some cases, glutathione does help with the melasma. So I would recommend you could do

[Hunter Williams]

a topical glutathione or injected glutathione, but

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

it does seem to help with those.

[Hunter Williams]

All right, let's move on to some heart health questions. So Sasha asked for a stack for endothelial repair and blood pressure issues. I would say GLP is obviously going to help a lot with that and SGLT2 is going to help a lot with that. And then I would say Vessigen will help.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

That's the blood vessel bioregulator. ARA290 could be potentially beneficial and even BPCTB500 could be beneficial as well.

[Hunter Williams]

Marlan says on resume statin for 25 years. I want alternatives.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Terz and Red are helping but afraid

[Hunter Williams]

to drop the statin. Well, I would say don't be afraid to drop the statin if you're hormonally optimized.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

If you're taking desiccated thyroid, which also

[Hunter Williams]

helps with lipid profiles and you're taking

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

glp, I think those things are all

[Hunter Williams]

you have to do. So you don't have to fear not taking cholesterol medicine. And then also too, you could take

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

some citrus bergamot, which is a supplement. I would do that like 500 to 1,000 milligrams per day and then go from there and you should be well on your way. I've talked to a ton of people,

[Hunter Williams]

that's what they do.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Their cholesterol is fine. See.

[Hunter Williams]

Peptides for heart disease in women. Really the ones that I just talked

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

about would be good there.

[Hunter Williams]

Jade asked about POTS and MCAS post Covid or long Covid felt great on

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

tur stack for pots issues.

[Hunter Williams]

I think SS31 could be really beneficial

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

for people with POTS because there does see to seem to be some mitochondrial dysfunction there. I think thymus is not for one because obviously, obviously be beneficial KPV and

[Hunter Williams]

I would even say maybe a little

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

bit of VIP 2. I think that could be beneficial there.

[Hunter Williams]

All right, let's see talk about some bone and joint health issues. So I get asked a lot about osteoporosis, so I'm going to kind of

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

combine all of these into this.

[Hunter Williams]

A lot of people have osteoporosis, sarcopenia,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

muscle wasting, bone density issues, hormones almost always will help fix a lot of those issues.

[Hunter Williams]

And and I will say two growth hormone peptides do really well in this category.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

We do see clinical data around increasing bone density with the growth hormone peptides. So I'd say that would be my next thing.

[Hunter Williams]

And interestingly enough, VIP has actually been

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

shown to help with bone density as well. And so I think that could be one that's potentially for someone that is suffering from osteoporosis that you could add in to help escalate or expedite things to get healthier.

[Hunter Williams]

All right, I get asked a lot, so I'm going to cross this section off. I get asked a lot about tinnitus and I will always be the first person to say I don't know when it comes to tinnitus, I don't know. I have never seen one peptide that really is healed tinnitus. I actually, and this is probably from having a lot of concussions, sometimes I

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

have a low level ringing in my ears.

[Hunter Williams]

And so tinnitus is one of those ones. If I knew a way to fix it, I would definitely talk about it,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

but I don't know there's any peptide that really helps with tinnitus. So unfortunately I know people have severe tinnitus.

[Hunter Williams]

You could try cerebralycin.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I've heard of people doing that. Maybe it'll help, maybe it doesn't. But unfortunately I don't know anything.

[Hunter Williams]

So if you find a peptide to help with tinnitus, let me know. So I haven't tried tried one yet,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

but probably due to a lot of concussions I had when I was younger, that is something that not all the

[Hunter Williams]

time, but sometimes I do have ringing my ears.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Just I wouldn't say it's to the point of even really being noticeable a

[Hunter Williams]

lot of times, but it is something

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

That I don't want to go tell people.

[Hunter Williams]

Like I always just say, like I could I go make stuff up like

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

hey, go take BPC for tinnitus or whatever and come up with some reasons

[Hunter Williams]

why it would help. But I don't do that and I never want to do that. But I just don't know of anything

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

that actually helps with tinnitus, unfortunately.

[Hunter Williams]

And if I do, I'll tell you. If I find something out, I'll tell you. So about thyroid health. So had a question. Is it okay to take thyroid bioregulator

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

if on T3 and T4?

[Hunter Williams]

I think so. And you may not even need as

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

a high dose after taking those.

[Hunter Williams]

So definitely fine to use those. Believe I have underdiagnosed thyroid since starting reta. That is very common.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And so I would say get your thyroid checked.

[Hunter Williams]

If your free T3 is not over

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

3.5, then you probably need some thyroid support. Especially if you're on retta.

[Hunter Williams]

There's this new compound called MA5 mitochondic acid. Is it best for mitochondria?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I don't know. I will be looking more into that.

[Hunter Williams]

So for all you researchers out there, get on it. Let's go find out about MA5 and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

see if it's out there. I don't even know if you can source it anywhere yet.

[Hunter Williams]

What are your thoughts on rapamycin? I like rapamycin. I think it's age dependent. I don't think anyone really needs it

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

before their 50s or 60s.

[Hunter Williams]

I do think you could do it

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

once a week on a rest day

[Hunter Williams]

to potentially improve longevity. But I think we also have so much out there now that we might not need rapamycin. I think if you look at SGLT2s with a GLP with metformin, you might not need rapamycin on top of it. But I don't think it could be. I don't think it's harmful. It would just for me, where I get kind of sketchy about it is

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

that it does inhibit mtor and so we're inhibiting mtor.

[Hunter Williams]

Obviously there's the potential that that could suppress muscle.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And I think when we look at longevity, we obviously want muscle for longevity. So that would be the reason I would tend to like have hesitation about it.

[Hunter Williams]

But I will say there's evidence that rapamycin induces menstruation and ovulation again in menopausal mice.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And so if you're an older woman, I think it could potentially be beneficial for fertility too. If you feel like that, that might Be something that you are not the best with. If you are like in your 40s and late 40s and still want to have children, that could potentially be an outlet or something that you could experiment with.

[Hunter Williams]

Phoebe asked if epitalon is okay in

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

someone with type 2 diabetes. Yes, I think that is absolutely fine. It could be beneficial. Obviously you want a GLP lifestyle change, but I think it'd be beneficial.

[Hunter Williams]

All right, is there a difference for Motsi and dosing for males and females? I don't think so. I always just recommend people start with a lower dose of Mots and if you don't feel anything good, that's okay. You can always up the dose. But if you start with 5 milligrams or 10 milligrams, guess what, it might be too strong. You might have anaphylactic shock, you might end up needing an epipen.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You might have to go to the

[Hunter Williams]

hospital and so always build up to those higher doses. Me personally, I don't go over 1-2mg per day, but you may want to

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

go over to 5mg or 10mg or whatever it is and that's fine if

[Hunter Williams]

you want to do that.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I personally don't. However, when you're starting out, please just start low because I've seen so many people have a bad response and so

[Hunter Williams]

there's all the dosing of, hey, you

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

take 5 milligram three times a week or whatever. Totally fine if you want to do that. I just personally don't.

[Hunter Williams]

All right, let's just move into some miscellaneous things. B733 dosing. I like 300, 600 micrograms. That is a peptide that seems to lower blood pressure and have anti fibrotic effects. I've used it. I can't say I felt anything different, but I did like it.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

It did seem to have an anti inflammatory effect when I've used it.

[Hunter Williams]

So I do like B7 3 3,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

very lesser known peptide. But there is some data with it helping directly with blood pressure and then being anti fibrotic as well. All right.

[Hunter Williams]

Da da. As a pre workout research suggests two

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to three times per week, not every session.

[Hunter Williams]

Thoughts? I think that's good. I think if you overdo it with Dada, you could potentially one, just push yourself too hard and then also two, you know, I just think it's one of those things. I, I like to cycle stuff so do it two to three times per

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

week, but you don't need to do it every day in my opinion.

[Hunter Williams]

I would say da like it makes me aggressive. It doesn't make me angry or anything,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

but it does make me more aggressive in a workout sense. I don't get, like, angry, but I do get more aggressive when I take data, which I think for a workout could be a good thing.

[Hunter Williams]

Someone asked me about Ace 167. So Ace 167 is a drug that is an oral peptide that is being studied right now.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I think it's in phase two human trials.

[Hunter Williams]

None of the data that I could find is public on it, but there

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

are research companies that are selling it. I think what you would take is like 2.5 to 5 milligrams per day of it.

[Hunter Williams]

In the rodent trials that we do have public data on, it increased cholesterol synthesis in the testes, which then doubled testosterone. So that would be pretty cool if it was doing the same thing in humans. But at this point, I just. We don't know what we don't know. And so I would love to see

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

more people that have used it. Tell me about it.

[Hunter Williams]

I don't need to use it.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And right now fertility is important to me. So I don't wanna play around with anything that would be circumspect in that

[Hunter Williams]

regard around my testes and what is going on down there. But if you're. If you're daring enough to go get

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

it, I would love to hear your feedback on it and how it's working.

[Hunter Williams]

But I do know it is being

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

studied in humans right now. We just don't know because the biotech company that is making it, which I believe is the same one that made ACE031, which is a myostatin inhibitor, and ACE083, which is a myostatin inhibitor as well, which I've used them for. And those seem to work pretty well for myostatin inhibition. All right, just going through some of these miscellaneous ones.

[Hunter Williams]

I always get asked about teens and peptides. We're actually going to talk about that

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

on a reader mailbag episode. So stay tuned for that. That Taylor and I are going to release.

[Hunter Williams]

Release very soon. Can you stack Turge and Reddit at microdoses? Yes, absolutely. Kelly says peptides for prostate issues, I like 1-2mg per day of velute, V E S I L U T E and 1-2mg per day of prostamax. I've actually used those just myself and I don't have any prostate issues, but I will say my bladder flow and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

just overall how you feel when you

[Hunter Williams]

urinate as a man was very much

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

improved from doing those. So fortunately for me, PSA is really low prostate volume. All that's good for me when I've had it measured.

[Hunter Williams]

But I will say there was improved

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

bladder flow enhancement for those. So I think for guys that do have BPH or things of that nature,

[Hunter Williams]

do two to three times per year.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

That cycle of 30 days, one to two milligrams of prostamax and bezel both per day works wonders. I love it. I give it my thumbs up and

[Hunter Williams]

plan on probably doing that at least

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

once a year for me, even though I'm in my 30s.

[Hunter Williams]

Jose asked if the NAD Plus Mod C5Amino Blend is worth it for a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

300 pound person on reta or weight.

[Hunter Williams]

Yeah, I would say absolutely. In that case you are probably going

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to vastly benefit from taking that. I would definitely add it onto the retta.

[Hunter Williams]

I would just get normalized to the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

retta first and then also understand that

[Hunter Williams]

you probably are going to have an

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

increased heart rate from taking all those at the same time.

[Hunter Williams]

So use it with caution and just

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

be careful about how you're using it.

[Hunter Williams]

This is a question I get asked all the time. Be good to talk about this here on the cheat sheet. When it shows A and M, AM and pm, does that mean twice a day or once? It's up to you. Actually, the top of the cheat sheet,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

which is on the newer one, so you can download the newer one if you want.

[Hunter Williams]

I just say when it says am/pm, you could do them both or you

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

could just choose one.

[Hunter Williams]

And so for instance, like a peptide that would have that width would be Tessa Morellon. And so you can do Tesla, Marlin, AM and pm. You can do it only AM or you can do it only pm. I just say use your discretion. But if it's on there, it basically means you could do both if you wanted to, or you could choose one

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

if you want to do so. Just do whatever convenient for you. But if it's on there, it is basically saying yes to both. I know that's annoying, but that's my philosophy and I wanted to be able to put that on there.

[Hunter Williams]

Show people like, hey, you can do test melon, you can do it am, pm, M or PM and choose.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So.

[Hunter Williams]

Why is NAD plus the only peptide

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

reconstituted at 100 milligrams per milliliter?

[Hunter Williams]

Well, I would do glutathione that as well. But NAD plus because of the nature of it, a lot of times you

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

need more water to dissolve it and Then you do it and it comes out to a hundred milligrams per milliliter.

[Hunter Williams]

Brian asked for my core stack of test HGH, Thyroid, Metformin Jardiance, Retta and SS31. Do you rotate any of those or year round? So the ones that rotate, probably SS31 with some Mozzi or some human in maybe the retta. Like I'm trying mazdutad right now instead

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

of retta just to see how that does.

[Hunter Williams]

But the test hh, Thyroid and the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

metformin Jardian stay on those all year round, so.

[Hunter Williams]

Great question. I know Brian has been paying attention with a question like that blends like GLOW and clo, do the peptides degrade each other?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Some peptides two times a week, but blends force daily.

[Hunter Williams]

Um, yeah. So I made a video about this. You can go look it up if

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

you want to watch a 45 minute

[Hunter Williams]

video about the science behind that. But as it stands right now, it

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

does seem that CL and GLOW are fine together when you mix them in a vial. And so I use those personally and

[Hunter Williams]

have gotten great results.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

All right, just going through some of these already talked about. Let's see.

[Hunter Williams]

Consuelo says, I would love to bring

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

the message to us Hispanic audiences.

[Hunter Williams]

Yeah, feel free. I always tell people with my content, what's the best way to say this? I want you to take my content and share it. Cut it up, share it with other people. If you want to dub it into Spanish, by all means, take that. You know, it's interesting just as this

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

is like a little philosophical tangent here.

[Hunter Williams]

Back in the day you had like Napster and Limewire and those things and there was this huge fight over content, like if you were a musician or whatever of like trying to keep the content gated. And as we've transitioned, I, I kind of view because I was like a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

child of like the early Internet age, I was born in 1993.

[Hunter Williams]

And so like I kind of view content is like the more people that have access to my content, like that's a good thing for me. Like it only is beneficial for me. So if people are pirating my content, that actually makes me happy. Now, do I want you to pirate my content?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

No, I want you to share my content with people.

[Hunter Williams]

But for instance, like, like the way that I think of like when I'm

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

writing books, like I never write a book to make money on it.

[Hunter Williams]

I write a book to have people to basically have like a low cost

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

way or a zero cost way to have access to the information for me.

[Hunter Williams]

And in the newer economy, like, if you look back to like Limewire and Napster those days, they were trying to prevent those companies from monetizing the content. And obviously like that has gone away.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

We have like Spotify and itunes and these things now. And artists make monies in different ways.

[Hunter Williams]

I'm not like a musician, but when it comes to my content, like dub it, share it with people, like, I want my content to be all over the Internet.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Especially when you're someone, that's the risk of being shut down constantly.

[Hunter Williams]

Like, I want my content shared all over the Internet. So when it comes to my stuff, like, feel free to do whatever with it if you wanted to, like share it on channels, like, do whatever. I will say, like, obviously, like books,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

if you want to buy them on Amazon, support them. But I know like my book, you

[Hunter Williams]

can go on any of the like

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

book websites and download the PDF of my book. Like, I don't care because I don't make hardly any money on my book because the royalties are so small.

[Hunter Williams]

Like, I want people to take it

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and then do with it.

[Hunter Williams]

And then like me as an entrepreneur, like, I will find ways to monetize

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

my content that are not necessarily through people paying for my content.

[Hunter Williams]

So I think the best thing you

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

can do is like someone that's a

[Hunter Williams]

creator is just make content and put it out there and then all of the goodwill will come back to you.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And if you're smart about how you monetize that, there are ways to do that.

[Hunter Williams]

And so for me, that's like why I have my private group. So like all of the content I put on the Internet is out there

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and then I have content inside of my private group that people pay for.

[Hunter Williams]

And guess what?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

If someone really wanted to, they could probably take that content out of my

[Hunter Williams]

private group and pirate it and share it. But what they can't replace is the

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

access to me inside of the private group.

[Hunter Williams]

And so again, that's just my kind of philosophy.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Maybe that'll evolve as AI and things like change the economy because I think that's something that we're up against.

[Hunter Williams]

But anyway, long tangent. But yes, you do have my permission

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

to dub it and share it with Hispanic audiences.

[Hunter Williams]

And I used to speak Spanish pretty well.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I'm definitely a little rusty.

[Hunter Williams]

But don't expect any Spanish videos.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Me coming soon because sometimes it's hard enough to pronounce all a lot of these peptide worlds or peptide words. The peptide world. Let's see, just going through, getting closer to the end here.

[Hunter Williams]

Traveling with peptides stacks with and without check bags.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Not a plan when you can't bring them.

[Hunter Williams]

I always check my peptides in my check bag and I usually always have a check bag. I know people bring it through TSA

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

and they just tell them it's personal

[Hunter Williams]

medication and they don't usually have issues,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

but I just don't like to risk it. And most of the time I have

[Hunter Williams]

a check bag anyway. Lori asked about reconstituting 100mg of GHK

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

with 1ml of backwater.

[Hunter Williams]

The bottle too small. I like my GHK to be somewhere

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

in the neighborhood of like 25-50mg per ML.

[Hunter Williams]

And so even if you get it down to like 10 milligrams per milliliter,

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

it's even a little bit better because it usually stings less.

[Hunter Williams]

So the just the thing to remember

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

with GHK is like typically the more

[Hunter Williams]

concentrated in the peptide, the more it's going to sting. GHK is usually lots many times bigger

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

in terms of the amount of peptides in the bottle. So like GHK is usually in a

[Hunter Williams]

50 to 100 milligram bottle, whereas like

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

most peptides are in a 10 milligram bottle.

[Hunter Williams]

And so the same amount of water is actually going to be a different

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

concentration than most peptides.

[Hunter Williams]

And GHK by itself stings, but it's

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

concentrated, so it might sting even more. So I like to dilute it down even more. In that case,

[Hunter Williams]

is a 4 millim 4 millimeter 32 gauge needle long enough for sub Q? Yeah, I think so. I like a 31 gauge, like 6 millimeter.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Yeah, that should be w. Should be

[Hunter Williams]

fine for sub Q filtering peptides. Is it necessary?

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Is there damage from forcing it through a micron filter? Is there loss in the filter?

[Hunter Williams]

I don't think it's necessary if you

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

trust your supplier, but if you don't,

[Hunter Williams]

it's a good idea. Is there damage? I don't know. There may be, but I don't know specifically. Is some loss in the filter? Yes, there is going to be some

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

loss in the filter. So understand that you're not going to

[Hunter Williams]

have as much because some does get

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

lost in the filter.

[Hunter Williams]

Not the peptide concentration, but the actual amount of the peptide.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

You do lose some in the filter because it gets filtered through.

[Hunter Williams]

So that me my opinion, I've done it before, but I don't do it all the time.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

But I also trust where I get mine from.

[Hunter Williams]

So Courtney asked for endotoxins and research

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

peptides as Glutathione help reduce them.

[Hunter Williams]

It potentially could reduce. Well, what it would do is it

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

would assist your body in eliminating and detoxifying against them.

[Hunter Williams]

So I would say there's that if

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

you are worried about it. I personally am not worried about endotoxins in mine, but I realize that that is a potential threat for a lot of people.

[Hunter Williams]

Marcia asked about my updated take on hydrogen water. I love hydrogen water. I actually drink this stuff. Sorry I went away from the mic now. People do not like when I go

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

away from the mic.

[Hunter Williams]

Got this little stuff right here. It's called Mind Body Matrix.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Hydrogen rich water. I drink this throughout the day. Usually drink like three or four of those per day.

[Hunter Williams]

And I also like the hydrogen tabs. There's a guy named Alex Tarnava or Tarnova. Forgive me, Alex, I'm mispronouncing your last name. He's kind of like the Godfather of molecular hydrogen.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So he's got some, some good stuff if you look him up. But yeah, I love, I love hydrogen water.

[Hunter Williams]

Clean Omega 3 brand. I think I use Wild Alaskan Peak

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

EPA, Peak Fish Oil. I think get it from Sprouts and Amazon. It comes in like a, an amber bottle.

[Hunter Williams]

Seems to be working pretty good. Jen asked about a healthy vape mentioned on the show. So I've been using a carbon 60. I guess it's a V. It's kind

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

of just like a little inhaler. It has carbon 60 ATP and glutathione in it.

[Hunter Williams]

But I really like that. If I do that like 30 minutes before cardio and do cardio, it feels

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

like I'm just like coasting through my cardio.

[Hunter Williams]

So I think that's called Nanogenesis Labs.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I don't have an affiliate code, unfortunately.

[Hunter Williams]

I probably should, but I really like that stuff.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I just picked it up at a 4M this spring.

[Hunter Williams]

Works pretty cool.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I still take C60 though, from shopc60.com

[Hunter Williams]

I do have a code there.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

I think it's Hunter 10. But I do love Carbon 60.

[Hunter Williams]

But it's cool. They can just hit that pen before cardio. And it doesn't seem to have like

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

negative lung effects or anything because it's just like a little water droplet inhaler. So you inhale it through the pen then blow it out through your nose. But it does work well and I love that.

[Hunter Williams]

And then lastly, someone recommend that I use 11 labs to call my voice

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

for reading my book, which I am looking into now.

[Hunter Williams]

And so hopefully for my new book that I'm working on and Even my old book, to which I do not have an audiobook read released yet. It's actually funny because Amazon sent me an email and they're like, hey, do you want to use our AI voice clone? I don't think it's 11 labs that Amazon uses.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Maybe it's built on their engine or something.

[Hunter Williams]

But they just, as an author, they

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

sent me because they saw that my

[Hunter Williams]

Kindle book and my paperback was not

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

inaudible, that they did have AI voice stuff now.

[Hunter Williams]

So for the sake of time and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

brevity, I probably will do that just because the AI voices are pretty good and you can actually clone your own.

[Hunter Williams]

And the more time I would spend recording my books is the less time I could spend recording videos.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

So I'm kind of in a catch

[Hunter Williams]

22 of like, Hey, I could do that.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

But then it also too. So there's only so many hours in the day, but I probably will end up doing that.

[Hunter Williams]

And if it's 90 as good for

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

me, that would be worth it just to be able to have more people exposed because there are certain people that will only listen to the audiobook version and not read it.

[Hunter Williams]

So that is it for this Q A. Made it through all those videos. As always, thank you guys so much.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

And look at that. We're right in an hour.

[Hunter Williams]

Thank you guys so much. These are awesome.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

The.

[Hunter Williams]

The fact that I get this many questions and I have to condense them down and sort and filter through is amazing. And hopefully you guys enjoy this watching it as much as I enjoy making them. But as always, keep submitting those questions. I do have that AI chat tool now and so hopefully that thing is learning on the content and training and

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

getting even better because it's supposed to improve upon itself.

[Hunter Williams]

But thank you guys so much.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Just in closing, like, the fact that

[Hunter Williams]

I get to do this as a

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

dream come true for me, so love

[Hunter Williams]

each and every one of you guys.

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

Thank you for all the support.

[Hunter Williams]

Whether it's sharing this content, using my codes, at places, being on the email

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

list, being inside my private group, it goes so much further than, you know, in helping me.

[Hunter Williams]

So thank you guys. I'll see you in the next one and we'll be back in some more videos and then another Q and A

[Taylor (Hunter's wife or co-host)]

next month in June.

[Ryan Reynolds]

Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here from Mint Mobile now. I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited Premium Wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills, but it turns out that's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a [e-mail] switch upfront payment

[Commercial Narrator]

of $45 for three months, $90 for six months or $180 for a 12 month plan required $15 per month equivalent taxes and fees. Extra initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes. Me slow when network is busy. See.
