Follow-Up Thread: My Experience With Epitalon

I wanted to go ahead and post a thread for the continued discussion of multiple comment trees in the recently-archived "My Experience With Epitalon" thread started by /u/telomerotica.
A quick iteration of the topics still under discussion:
* Without doubt the most interesting detail from the original thread is telomerotica's use of a telomere length test conducted by the company Titanovo, which he had used to evaluate his undergoing 5 different cycles of different types of Epitalon. His results came back saying he had the telomeres of a 10-year-old.
* /u/Telomerotica has plans to get another, follow-up test from Titanovo in order to confirm the accuracy of their results. Link.
* /u/MisterYouAreSoDumb had Titanovo tests conducted on him and a few of his employees and is currently awaiting results. One of the employees smokes and the other does not, so it will be a very interesting comparison. Link.

I recall /u/telomerotica saying he got confounding results when he tested with a different company. It seems like an insanely difficult thing to test for, that would require sampling from many different parts of the body. Perhaps there are a lot of formed elements from cells--including all sorts of DNA--floating around in your blood plasma that could make their way into your saliva. That just seems all-too-convenient, though. I suppose I just need to understand the science of it more to be more confident about the validity of such a test.
So should I try injecting the BPC-157 subcutaneously at the lumbar site? I've heard reports suggesting local delivery is important. The TB-500 is systemic and can be injected anywhere, right?

I need to research the specifics more as well. The number I gave you is my average telomere length. It's 1.8 kbp, or 0.41 T/S. I'd like to see the raw numbers, and see if something might be throwing the average off. I'm not going to lose sleep over the results just yet, but I am going to change some things and do some cycles before I retest.
Injecting by the lumbar is something you need to be very careful with. You don't want to hit your sciatic nerve. TB-500 is systemic.
