    Default How to reconstitue your Peptides.

    theguerillachemistI get this question all the time and it truly amazes me the lack of basic math skills in the fitness community. I guess it's bc we are the rouge rebels who don't use the metric system, but that's an entirely different topic. Here's how to properly reconstitute and measure a dose of any given peptide: 1) determine the total amount of milligrams of the molecule. For this example let's call it 1mg. 1mg = 1000 micrograms. 2) determine how much water to add to peptide. For something as small as 1mg, I like to add 2mL of water. This makes the concentration 1000mcg/2mL or 500mcg per mL. On a 1mL insulin needle, 10 units = 1/10 of a mL. So if you want to take 100mcg, that would be 1/5 of 1mL, since there are 500mcg per mL. So, measuring out to 10 would be 50mcg, so 20 would be 100mcg bc 20/100 = 1/5. Everything is in multiples of 10 so it's very basic math. If you wanted 250mcg, then you would measure to 50 or 0.5mL would be 250mcg. Make sense? GH is a little different bc you're dealing with IU and 1mg is approx = 3iu. So it's the same principle. Hope this helps. Long live the metric system!!!
