they’ve been shipping these peptides all across the country via online research chemical sites, hiding behind a shameless "not for human consumption" label. if it hadn’t been for richard norton’s official autopsy report, this whole thing would’ve just been swept under the rug as "well, 75-year-old guy had a heart attack, what did you expect?"
unless they crack down on the massive kickbacks these doctors are pocketing and finally pull the plug on unregulated compounding pharmacies, more people are going to end up in a body bag.
oh, and by the way—it wasn't just norton's heart that stopped beating here; it’s the entire scam of a biohacking industry taking a fatal blow.
