We cover:

• Mixing Multiple Peptides in One Syringe: Why it's safe, how to do it right, and why you don't need to be a pin cushion

• The Full GH Peptide Hierarchy Explained: HGH vs. secretagogues vs. IGF-1 LR3 — what replaces, stimulates, and bypasses your natural growth hormone and when to use each

• IGF-1 LR3 Timing, Dosing & Cycle Length: Pre- vs. post-workout debate, why 20–40 mcg is the sweet spot, and why four to six weeks on with equal time off is the smart approach

• Tesamorelin vs. Sermorelin vs. CJC-1295: Strength rankings, dosing protocols, pituitary vs. blood plasma signaling, and why Tessa is Paul's top pick

• Ipamorelin Ratios for Women: Why equal blends can cause water retention and the case for keeping Ipa lower relative to Tessa or CJC

• IGF-1 Sweet Spot on Blood Work: Why 250–350 is the optimal range for fat loss, lean muscle, sleep quality, and cognitive function

• AOD-9604 & SLU-PP-332 Fat Loss Protocols: Proper AOD dosing, fasted cardio timing, and what the latest sloop studies show at higher milligram doses

• SS-31 Then MOTS-C for Mitochondrial Health: How to sequence them, the loading and maintenance phase for metabolic damage, and managing histamine reactions

• NAD+ Dosing Done Right — and What Happens When You Overdo It: Why 200mg per week is the sweet spot and what happens when you accidentally take 500mg

• Optimal Blood Work Markers for Testosterone: Total, free, DHEA, and SHBG targets for men and women — and why DHEA is a $25 fix most people overlook

• Male Fertility Protocol: HCG dosing, HMG every other day, N-clomiphene citrate, and why Paul avoids standard clomid

• BPC-157, Angiogenesis & Cancer Research: What the latest rat model studies show about wound healing vs. chaotic angiogenesis and why the risk conversation is shifting
