I think you’re right. The eagerness of people to ingest the latest unregulated fad of the moment never ceases to amaze me. I know people who are popping tons of peptide shit, and it’s ‘fine’ because “it’s all amino acids”. Strong “it’s got electrolytes!” Idiocracy vibes.
The problem is, people take these unregulated supplements and then “feel amazing”. Their energy and focus levels increase. But they don’t think about the side effects.
You know how I got my energy and focus levels up? By cutting back on processed food and sugars, drinking more water, focusing on my gut health, exercising a bit more, and finding ways of reducing stress levels. Not easy, but it works. And no snake oil supplements (or their side effects) required.

“Peptide” is just such a general term, like insulin is a fucking peptide, lots of things are peptides
A lot of what people are taking, are legit roids, even if they are also peptides.

Yep, crack makes you feel amazing too, feeling amazing is honestly usually a bad thing.
no snake oil supplements
Bro…
The dangerous part about this shit is it’s not snake oil. Snake oil was largely inert, they might be cocaine or morphine in it, but it was in everything back then.
People are taking serious drugs that do serious things, with no medical professionals involved, their just ordering this shit off the Internet on their own
