They're just injecting them themselves because it's a better, cheaper way to get them.
Now what's kind of happening in that world is they're actually changing that, taking off the not for human use and putting for physician use only.
So the way they've done that now is they've taken all the liability and put it onto the physician.
So if I give my patient something that says for physician use only and I don't have a pharmacy standing behind it, then something bad happens, it's my fault.
So I think as a physician,
I have to get compounds that are regulated, controlled.
And I can tell you that we've seen some bad things happen with research peptides.
And we've had some of our pharmacists who are compounding pharmacies look at some of the research peptides and they do have contaminants in them.
They do have less amounts.
So again, that COA doesn't mean a whole lot.
It just means they are within the research grade standards, not within what we consider useful for humans.
That's certainly my bias.
But, you know, you will find physicians everywhere and online everywhere and that are going to disagree with that.
But being in this world a long time, I mean, it was just the case.
I don't know if you heard about the case at Radfest where there was a doctor there who was just injecting a peptide into people.
It was in the exhibit hall, right?
And you could just get a peptide injection.
Right.
So he was there injecting these peptides into people, and about 30 people had a very adverse reaction.
Two actually very serious.
