What's My Take on Peptides and GLP-1s?
Product I'm reading about: Peptides A week doesn't go by without someone asking me about peptides or GLP-1s. I talked with a brilliant friend that owns a compounding pharmacy. She does not sell or distribute either since it is still illegal for compounding pharmacies to do so.
