in reading up on Sterile water and BAC water ( injectable water) is that ordinary tap water may be more sterile than sterile water, because it has anti bacterial agents already added to it. It is easy to get BAC water online, so why take a chance ?
Also, when a product is said to be "98% pure" it does NOT mean that 2% is not sterile. I know many drug users that do NOT swipe with alcohol swabs, reuse needles and use tap water, and have not had a minor infection. Problem is, is that when one might get an infection, it is a doozy. take normal precautions and you are fine. You are doing exactly what a nurse would do.
Personally, I have not seen much benefit from taking Epitalon, but I do "trust" Khavinsons reports, also seen on PubMed.
I saw much more of a benefit in energy and health in taking TA 65, but the price is insane. They only claim almost similar results to Epitalon, which is much cheaper and really SHOWS scientific results.
So, TA65 gave me tremendous OBSERVED energy, while Epitalon has not shown much, but has DOCUMENTED results in telomere growth.
However, if the Hayflick limit in telomere growth is extended by 30%, and telomeres STOP growth at the age of 20, am I getting results in telomere growth at age 71 ?
Khavinson s tests on the elderly shows that it does.
Of 100,000 people ( extending the study as if there were 100,000 people) 4000 will die of old age in a year ( age 60 to @65) while those on Epitalon, the death rate was reduced to 1000.
I suppose if I was a Republican, I would go with my feelings rather than science :-) but as I am a Liberal, I trust the scientists.
