How Much Is Too Much? The Low and Slow Research Approach 🐢
If you've been here a while, you know I always preach "low and slow" with research protocols. Here's why that matters.
It comes down to side effects.
Let me use an example outside of peptides. When a research subject takes testosterone, taking too much doesn't build more muscle. Instead, the excess converts into estrogen—and now you've created new problems. There's a point where more stops helping and starts hurting.
Peptides work the same way.
Your receptors can only handle so much. Once they're activated, dumping more compound on them doesn't do anything extra—it just causes side effects.
Take GLP-1 receptor agonists for example. Push too hard and you get:
  • Nausea
  • Stomach issues
  • Your receptors getting worn out over time
  • Wasted money with no added benefit
This applies across the board. Growth hormone secretagogues, melanocortin agonists, whatever you're researching—the principle is the same. Receptors have limits.
The approach that actually works:
  1. Start low. You can always go up. You can't undo side effects.
  2. Give it time. Many peptides take weeks to show full results. Don't jump the gun.
  3. Increase slowly when needed. Small bumps help you find the sweet spot.
  4. Track everything. You can't optimize what you don't measure.
Bottom line: More is not always better. Why use twice the compound for the same results (or worse)?
Slow and steady wins the race. Trust the process. 🏁
