Will shipping with cold packs, and overnight etc. improve this?
Definitely could help with the shipping aspect as far as temp related degradation especially in summer. However when I get cold packed peptides, the packs are hot by the time I get them even in a couple of days, so oh well there.
Also you have to account for the handling. I saw some postal workers and chain delivery guys throw and kick packages, generally just being rough as hell. That does not help.
Is there any way to compare 500mcgs per day to a certain number of ius per week of hGH in terms of fat loss?
No direct comparison can be made that I know of. Most likely because the frag is not the only aspect of GH that is responsible for this action (Gh mediated IGF has synergistic action in this area as well as other possible GH properties that are not fully understod yet).
I have even tried the mathimatical approach (a crude estimate):
assumprions: each amino will have the same molecualr weight in this estimate as the differences will not skew this estimate that much (I do not want to look up all the individual weights of each amino here, argh).
GH Peptide 1-191 is 191 aminos
GH Frag 176-191 is 15 aminos
15 is roughly 8% of 191, thus the frag accounts for about 8% of the weight of GH.
So 3iu of GH = 1g (1000mcg)
Thus 8% of this is the frag portion which is about 80mcg
Now 3iu of GH DEFINITELY produces MUCH greater fat burning IMO than the small 80mcg dose of Frag within the GH peptide at the 3iu dose...
500mcg of frag would be the minimum to use for decent results...
