Peptides Could Change Long-Term Risk

  • New peptides (GW, SLU variants) appear to improve blood markers and may allow longer anabolic exposure.
  • Dave warns we lack long-term data and unseen costs may emerge later.
ADVICE

Check The Heart, Not Just Bloods

  • Use imaging (echocardiogram, calcium score, angiogram) to assess heart health beyond blood lipids.
  • If imaging and comprehensive labs are normal, cautiously consider continued usage but remain vigilant.
ADVICE

Take Breaks And Assess Progress

  • Don't treat long continuous enhanced doses as automatic health-neutral; plan deliberate breaks to refresh responsiveness.
  • Stop a cycle if you stop making progress—using drugs for the sake of it is unjustified.
