  • Growth-factor peptides carry a theoretical risk of feeding existing cancers.
  • Products sold online as research peptides are unregulated. Tests of such products often find wrong amounts, impurities or a different compound.
  • Anyone using compounds like this regularly should have medical supervision and bloodwork (for example IGF-1, glucose and HbA1c, hormones, lipids).
