- Meekro 1y agoI'm concerned about what would happen if everyone started trying to do this. How many would put themselves in the emergency room, or worse?
- raincom 1y agoI see at least three sources of problems. 1. Test it for mass, purity, endotoxins, whether it is the real deal or not; this can be easily mitigated if one joins some testing group to share costs. 2. Calculate the dosage units properly, as it depends on how much bacteriostatic water is mixed with the powder. Here, many peptide calculators help. Some will end up making mistakes here; instead of taking 5 units, one will take 50 units--this leads to ER visits. 3. Hygiene: use gloves and alcohol wipes.

- skissane 1y agoI heard a story once about a research chemist who decided to synthesise LSD for his own use, miscalculated and gave himself a massive overdose-it didn’t kill him, but it rendered him non compos mentis for an extended period. Even domain experts can make dumb mistakes, especially when you separate them from formalised quality control systems aimed at catching those mistakes before anyone is harmed.

- raincom 1y agoSourcing is easy if you are adventurous. Many third party testing labs help you deal with safety: purity, toxins, whether it is legit.
- pogue 1y agoWho is doing testing of these powders for toxins/heavy metals/purity/etc etc and what does that cost? Can you trust the results of said places performing these tests?
- raincom 1y agoIt costs from $600 to $1000 if one wants full suite of tests. There are at least two popular third party testing labs. Since testing is expensive, buyers pool together to share costs. In large groups, one ends up spending $10.
