Thoughts on IGF-1 Lr3

Hey u/MisterYouAreSoDumb, I know that ceretropic used to carry peptides, but not anymore. What are your own personal thoughts on IGF-1 Lr3, the supply that's out there now, and if you have/had any experiences with it?
I've read stories that vendors were just selling rat insulin to everything is faked now and old timers reliving the 2000's when the stuff used to be legitimate.
What they were answering

Thanks for the reply.
So pure IGF-1 Lr3 isn't that hard to make then? Browsing old forums, people mention a difference between "receptor grade" and recombinant -being synthesized from E.Coli.
It seems that receptor grade doesn't work for muscle hypertrophy, but recombinant does...? Is this more bodybuilding bs or would all IGF-1 Lr3 on the market work for hypertrophy?

Sure, IGF-1 LR3 is hard to make. However, there are multiple labs making it pure at the moment.
Receptor grade is just a term people use to describe 95% or purer peptides. It doesn't really mean anything. Companies love to use terms to make their shit sound better. All the stuff we sold was over 98% purity. It gets much more expensive as you go higher in purity for peptides, and the yields drop a lot. The difference between 95% and 98% can be as much as 50% in some cases.
Long recumbent is what the LR3 stands for. So IGF-1 LR3 is the long recumbent version of the peptide. IGF-1 LR3 works for hypertrophy. Perhaps you are thinking of IGF-1 DES. That is a shorter-acting more localized IGF-1.
