If we inject peptides now, are we training our bodies to not produce them later?
I’m new and ignorant to the world of peptides so be patient with me! I’m in my midlife so my biggest question and worry is if I do something now that I will regret later. I would love to try many of these but am worried about what it means for long term / future side effects.
I read that our bodies naturally produce many of these peptides. So if we inject more into ourselves now, are we training our bodies that they don’t need to produce any themselves? So when we stop injecting, have our bodies have become reliant on them and we need to keep supplementing for the rest of our lives?
I would maybe be okay with keeping up on peptides for the rest of my life but at the same time, what if there is not a way to access them in the future? Will my body stop producing these on its on and just shut down and fatten up and become inflamed and lose energy all while my skin shrivels up like a raisin?
Looking for your insight and experiences! Again, would love to try but I’m nervous about long term consequences. :)
I hope this makes sense… just a thought that kept me up at night.
