Kyal's Move Due To Peptide Ban
- Kyal moved from Australia to New Zealand because Australia banned BPC-157 peptide, essential to his business.
- Mold problems and regulatory challenges in Queensland also prompted the relocation for health and business reasons.
Hidden Contaminants in Water
- Municipal water recycling doesn't remove drugs or metabolites like birth control and antidepressants.
- Contaminated water exposes people to combined physiological and energetic effects of others' metabolites.
Understanding Peptides' Healing Role
