lmaooo bella coming back with the podcast bit, actual comedy. "watch the vein appear" sent me
ok but real talk since were kinda winding down from the academic thunderdome i actually wanna share something useful for OP that hasnt really come up yet
so my situation was a little different - I was running BPC for a shoulder thing (rotator cuff, partial tear, not full blown but enough to make pressing miserable for like 4 months) and the plateau thing you described hit me HARD around week 5-6 too. like progress was great and then it just kinda... stopped. still functional improvement but the curve went flat
what actually made a difference for me on the SECOND run was stacking it with TB-500. like BPC handles a lot of the local repair signaling stuff and TB-500 is more systemic and hits angiogenesis and cell migration through a different mechanism. together the results felt noticeably more complete than either one alone. obviously thats n=1 territory and were in bro-science land here but it was a meaningful difference in my experience
im not saying go dump money on a stack your first time out, I wouldnt have recommended that to myself before I understood both compounds better individually. but if you do another run and hit that same plateau wall around week 5, might be worth researching
OP solid thread man, sorry it became a dissertation lol. worth reading every post in here though, even the spicy ones

this is a genuinely important point and I wish someone had explained it to me this clearly early on. the COA batch number matching thing especially. I learned that the hard way not from limitless specifically but from a different vendor and it was annoyingSupplierSkeptic99 wrote:"The lab name came up as a real facility" is not actually verification
