The Peptide Protocol & Muscle Preservation Calculator
Calculate accurate micro-dosing for your syringe, lock in your lean muscle protein targets to prevent metabolic damage on GLP-1s, and run a quick source risk check. Not medical advice.

Syringe Micro-Dosing
To administer exactly 0mg from a 0mg vial reconstituted with 0mL of Bac Water:
Pull to exactly 0 tick marks on a standard U-100 insulin syringe.
The Lean Mass Saver
WARNING: Up to 40% of weight lost on GLP-1 agonists can be lean muscle mass. This leads to metabolic damage and sarcopenia.
Your calculated Lean Body Mass is 0 lbs.
You MUST consume exactly 0 grams of protein daily to protect your muscle tissue.
Safety & Purity Assessment
Why Follow This Protocol?
Absolute Precision
Miscalculating peptide reconstitution can lead to severe under or over-dosing. Our formula maps exactly to standard U-100 syringes.
Muscle Preservation
Losing weight is great, but losing metabolically active muscle destroys your metabolism. Protein targeting prevents post-diet weight regain.
Safety First
The “grey market” of research peptides is full of risk. We alert you to the clinical realities and FDA findings of common sources.
Protocol FAQs
Why use Bacteriostatic Water instead of sterile water?
Bacteriostatic water contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which inhibits bacterial growth. This allows a reconstituted peptide vial to be used safely for up to 28 days when refrigerated. Sterile water is for single-use only.
What is a U-100 syringe?
A U-100 insulin syringe is the standard for subcutaneous injections. It holds 1mL of liquid, divided into 100 “units” (tick marks). Each unit represents 0.01mL of fluid.
Why is muscle loss so dangerous on GLP-1s?
Rapid weight loss without adequate protein causes the body to cannibalize muscle for energy. Because muscle burns calories at rest, losing it lowers your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), ensuring rapid fat regain once the medication is stopped.
What is a 503A Compounding Pharmacy?
A 503A pharmacy is heavily regulated by state boards and the FDA. They compound customized medications specific to a patient’s prescription, utilizing pharmaceutical-grade APIs, making them the safest legal framework for therapies.
