If you wake up after 4-5 hours of sleep & find it hard to go back to sleep, it’s likely you offset your primary sleep drive (due to adenosine buildup etc). The next 2-3hrs of would-be sleep is when learning associated brain changes occur. 3 things help in this scenario. (Thread)

I was curious as to what people here think about his claim here regarding lipopolysaccharide? Is this at all true? Is this a concern for any grey market peptide? It seems that normal .22um filtering won't catch this stuff, and now I'm worried lol.

Besides that, I always wake up after 4 hours of sleep and it's frustrating as hell and I'm wondering if pinealon could help. Any anecdotal experiences anyone willing to share?

He's a grifter and the community would be better off if folks stoppped giving him attention.

I did find his very dire warnings about grey market peps to be a little over the top. As if testing isn't available or a thing. His guest was (surprise!) someone who prescribes peptides, so it felt a bit sales pitchy.

This is one of those claims that it just seems unlikely he has any sort of direct evidence of it. Who is testing these grey market peptides and finding that 'many' of them have LPS? Why have we seen none of the tests showing them?

It's a strong claim that seems to have no publicly available evidence behind it.

I concur, it seems spurious, however, I'm also keenly aware that we dabble in a realm that has objectively more risk than products that must submit to the rigors of the FDA.

In any event, I'm still interested in peoples experience with Pinealon.

Just filter your gray peps! From what I have read….and I’m no expert …. a 0.2 micron filter will filter most large clumps of LPS as well as bacteria. The fact that most peps are produced from chemicals incapable of supporting sustained bacterial growth and the final product is lypholized then freeze dried then vacuum sealed makes the likelihood of contamination extremely low, as evidenced by all of the normal test results posted here. Huberman has to speak this way as a public professor of a medical school . He wants to keep his tenure. 90% of his colleagues would throw him under the bus otherwise! When he exits academia his public comments will change drastically I bet!
