Chat I have came upon a site that has different supplements, peptides, and hormones

High grade labs it is called.

I have never seen a website like it,

It is pretty expensive and im unsure if any of the stuff would be good or helpful. So far I have identified HGH peptide and something called oxytocin nasal spray.

The craziest thing I have ever taken for my health/fitness is either NAC supplements, something called phenibut supplement(a sort of stimulant.) I have also ventured into the place of kratom and/or cbd, where it can be used as a pain relief adjunct.

Thanks and it does not interest me, I've been taking supplements for gong on 30 yrs and it's a hit and miss and I muscle test my supplements usually and for about 17 months I've been using an HGH Homeopathic Gel and daughter is in about 2 yrs of using it....it's made a Giant change in her life and for me it's beneficial and I am 82 soon.

I've stayed away from most supplements. They would be one more thing to remember to buy, remember to take, need to find out more about, and so on.

If there's no crying need for a remedy, I tend to pass up all suggested remedies. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it," eh?

Supplements are very poorly regulated (in the US). I'd be uneasy about just what I was taking if I took them.

Also, they can be really costly.

I do take a multivitamin (Centrum Silver) and extra vitamin D3 (5,000IU daily) because the doctor recommended them.

Supplements are my salvation and the aging body keeps going healthy and strong thanks to them. So sad my sister didn't use them or more, she might still be here. We just disagree on many healing therapies.

And supplements are highly regulated by the powers that approve the toxic drugs, and millions do believe in Big Supplements... Millions are not dying from supplements but are from drug interactions. Thanks for reading,

Agate, what you have described is one of the roles of the Therapeutic Goods Administration here.

Recently the TGA fined a company $A40K for selling products which were allegedly protective against Covid-19 infection with no evidence for their claim.

Oh it's bizarre here in the U.S. how the Federal Bureau of Investigation is going after clinics and other institutions for using Vit C in attacking the Covid issue....I wonder if they are going after some hospitals here too who use Vit C IV's in the Covid wards. Absolutely insane and what a waste of an agency that is supposed to be going after criminal issues. I guess I'm the only one who "gets this"....or others don't want to get it. So many just want to discredit holistic healing therapies.

Knowledge is not so much power here.

Caroline, do note again that those raids are for people claiming CURES for which they have no proof.
As explained to you on another thread, no-one allowed to make a "cure" claim for a supplement or a pharma med or any form of health treatment using anything, when there is no substantive evidence for the claim.

That doesn't mean the treatment is not beneficial...it simply means they are not allowed to market it as a "cure" unless they have substantive evidence that it is.

But the FBI??? Why not send in the FDA or AMA or those likes if "they" want to make some proofs or non proofs. Is Vit C killing people?

To my recent comment, I'd like to add, if this is such a health issue worry, send in the health board or any of those groups that check on mask, distance, etc...but the FBI....the supposed crime fighters....

You may not be aware that they are the primary agency for investigating fraud in healthcare.

Health Care Fraud — FBI


I do think perhaps bruegger84 's thread is being taken in a tangential direction now as it had nothing to do with covid or investigations......
