“I've used thymosin alpha one when I travel to avoid the cesspool of planes and hotels and all these places, which I would say traveling and then this year on the wards, the first time I don't get flu, cold, whatever kind of infection, I'm dosing thymosin alpha 1 throughout, and I didn't get sick a single time. […] Twice a week, time agnostic. […] We're talking about 2.5 milligrams as a prophylactic. That's not FDA approved or-”
Context: Own use. Andrew Huberman asks “Have you taken thymosin alpha?” and then “What time of day or night are you injecting?”. Huberman adds “This is just you doing your thing”.
“anywhere between half a milligram, up to three milligrams”
How taken
“Orally”
“Orally, people will take anywhere between half a milligram, up to three milligrams, is where people settle in. The Kavinson ones that come from Russia are 200 micrograms.”
Context: Answering Andrew Huberman’s question “Do you know the dosages? Not that we’re recommending it”. He describes what people take, not his own protocol. He says earlier that people take it “In the morning. Or at night”.
“people just go based on the dosage that would fit in the vial […] through a peptide sciences website, rather than what actually-- We don't know what the human dose is- […] for BPC 157. So there's a lot of work to do just to figure that out. When we spoke to the orthopedic group, they're like, "Yeah, we're going to start with 250 micrograms." I'm like, "I don't know if you're going to see an effect at that low of a dose."”
