The money I invest in Retatrutide is the same money I wasted on drive thrus and take away garbage food.
I feel full longer, fasting is easier, food obsession gone but look forward to nutritious meal after 24 hour water fasting. Eventually I will move to OMAD one meal a day. Started 2.5mg then 4 mg soon 5 mg once every 6 days . This man is very smart I greatly appreciate his advise confirms my choices have been responsible . It’s wonderful to be with my family and friends and not looking over their shoulder thinking about what junk food I’m going to eat behind closed doors.

57 and menopaused. On HRT. Preserved my muscles, skin and progesterone helped with sleep and anxiety.

30:35 Nailed it! Customized HRT changed my life, as a perimenopausal woman. I was a miserable zombie for years until HRT. The only down side is it's $380 every three months since compounding isn't covered by insurance. It's a small price to pay to get rid of the symptoms and have my energy back.😉

I know a male and female who have taken Ozempic. I'm not sure if the female is still on it, but the male is. The male was morbidly obese. He still is, but has lost over 100 pounds on it in two years. The female lost 40 pounds. They are first cousins. The female is 67 and looks fantastic for her age, the male looks old for his age, but, looked old before Ozempic. I took the male to a park that had a hill to it in Berkeley, CA, and he was able to walk up and down the hill, something he would not have been able to do a year ago.

Tirzepatide has been transformational for me. In WM 54, and used to be huge/fat. Over the last 2 years I have lost tons of weight, my arthritis went away (just gone), and I am healthier across the board and could come off of some of the drugs i used to be on.

He said: “If we had Palantir in 2000s, 911 would not had happened.”
The Clinton administration already had suspicions that Al-Qaeda was planning an attack, that information was forwarded to The Bush administration who did nothing. Palantir would not have changed that.

The people who had apprehension about the internet 🛜 back in the 80s and 90s, were proven right when “The Patriot Act” changed civil privacy for the worse. Though, he’s right about how things work out. There are more positives than negatives, it solves more problems than the new ones it creates when it comes to the internet and technology advancements.

I strongly disagree with his notion of a surveillance state. That lends itself to be misused by people we already know for a fact that are corrupt and are equipped with a justice system that fails.

I’ve been on TRT for 2 years. Now zivofert also. All through a clinic. I do bloodwork every 3 months. I feel much better but it’s not a cure all. I do around 250ml of TRT every two weeks and 30cc of zivofert once a week myself.

Do whatever it takes for you to reach the Pinnacle of whatever it is you're looking for. It's all temporary with what this guy's talking about

I’ve been on Tirzepatide for 2 days and I cannot believe how much my hunger has gone, amazing

I was drinking sometimes 5 energy drinks a day. I knew I was going to die of a heart attack. I asked the doc to get me on a GLP-1 because I heard of the anti-addiction properties. I went from having an addiction to energy drinks to using them casually to help stay awake when I work a 60+ hour week. Still not great, but definitely better. Real shame I haven’t lost any weight on it though! I was secretly hoping I would. They obviously don’t work for everyone.

Tripartite 2.5 has helped me lose 15% of my body weight, dropped my lipids to a healthy range and healed my joint pain and inflammation. So grateful. I feel better than I have since before I had my kids.

I’m 51, TRT is great. It’s not a miracle, you still got to put in the work. You just recover better.

The more everyone and their mother tries selling me something the more and more I question it… nowadays I try look for the 75 year old who is fit and active and ask what he’s doing.

On the antidepressants front, again, the evolutionary imperative is clutch. Everything about these and SSRIs supports the evolutionary point.
Supposing there's so anxiety, no depression, no deep sadness because we built chemicals to avoid it, what is the upside? We don't internalize sadness? That's not fucking good, people should be sad, especially in situations where they should feel bad. People overall should feel bad, maybe sometimes, maybe all the time, it just depends on the situation. We can't just delete feeling bad, that has no upside in the system.
