Ryder Research Peptides Described as “Potentially Life Threatening”
DonutNV franchise owner Michael Malagon founded Ryder Research Supply and the Mike’s Pep Talk promotional website. Malagon’s website admits that the drugs he sells on his website are not FDA approved for use on humans or animals. Google Gemini describes some of his products as “potentially life threatening.” Evidently, DonutNV Franchising Inc. has not forced their Fort Myers franchisee to cease & desist running his online business because, as of this writing, the sites are still live. by Sean Kelly, Founder, Truth for Veterans, Truth for All Initiative.

(UnhappyFranchisee.Com) DonutNV franchisee for Fort Myers, FL also owns a business selling “peptides.”

Mike’s Ryder Research Supply business offer six products in a variety of dosages:
- Retatrutide (10mg) (Weight loss) $115.00 – $279.00
- Semaglutide (10mg) (Weight reduction) $110.00
- Tirzepatide (10mg) (Weight management) $70.00 – $225.00
- BPC-157 (Healing) $65.00
- CJC / IPA 5mg/5mg (Growth Hormone) $65.00
- PT-141 (Sexual Health) $50.00
Unlike DonutNV Fort Myers, FL franchisee Michael Malagon, I do not claim to have vast, expert knowledge that some suckers actually go to medical school for. (I did, however, graduate summa cum laude from Pretzel University back in the 1990s. For real.)

But I do know how to ask Google Gemini Ai this question:
Out of the six peptides being promoted by Mike Malagon’s Ryder Research Supply, which are the most dangerous and why?
Here’s what Google Gemini had to say:
Ryder Research Supply Peptides are Potentially Life-Threatening
When these peptides are removed from a clinical setting and sold on the “grey market,” the risks shift from manageable side effects to life-threatening medical emergencies.
While all unprescribed injections carry the risk of infection, heavy metal contamination, or mislabeling, the following substances stand out as the most dangerous for specific reasons.
1. Retatrutide (10mg) – Most Dangerous (Investigational)
This is arguably the most hazardous on your list because it is not an approved drug.
- The Triple Agonist Risk: Unlike Semaglutide (one receptor) or Tirzepatide (two receptors), Retatrutide hits three different hormonal pathways (GLP-1, GIP, and Glucagon).
- Glucagon Complications: Because it affects glucagon, it can cause rapid increases in heart rate (tachycardia) and severe heart palpitations. Without a doctor monitoring your cardiovascular health, this can lead to arrhythmias.
- Dosage Danger: A 10mg dose is extremely high for a beginner. In clinical trials, patients start at 2mg. Jumping to 10mg could cause “unrelenting vomiting” and severe dehydration requiring hospitalization.
2. Semaglutide & Tirzepatide (10mg) – Highest Risk of Overdose
These are the most common “grey market” purchases, but 10mg is a massive, potentially toxic amount for someone starting out.
- The Titration Trap: Clinical protocols start Semaglutide at 0.25mg and Tirzepatide at 2.5mg. Taking 10mg as a first dose is essentially a 40-fold overdose for Semaglutide.
- Pancreatitis: A massive, unmonitored dose can trigger acute pancreatitis—inflammation of the pancreas that causes excruciating abdominal pain and can be fatal if not treated in an ER.
- Gastroparesis: There is a risk of “stomach paralysis,” where the digestive system stops moving entirely, leading to severe malnutrition and intractable vomiting.
3. BPC-157 – The “Invisible” Risk (Cancer & Purity)
BPC-157 is popular for “healing,” but it is arguably the most biologically unpredictable on the list.
- Angiogenesis & Cancer: BPC-157 promotes the growth of new blood vessels. If you have any undiagnosed pre-cancerous cells or a small tumor, BPC-157 can act like “fertilizer,” rapidly accelerating the growth of cancer by providing it with a dedicated blood supply.
- Lack of Human Data: Almost all data on BPC-157 comes from rats. We do not have long-term human safety data to know if it causes organ scarring or immune system rejection over time.
4. PT-141 – Acute Cardiovascular Risk
Often sold for sexual dysfunction, this peptide acts on the central nervous system and melanocortin receptors.
- Blood Pressure Spikes: It is notorious for causing sudden, severe hypertension (high blood pressure). For a user with undiagnosed heart issues, this can lead to a hypertensive crisis or stroke.
- Focal Neurological Symptoms: Some users report “anhedonia”—a total loss of the ability to feel pleasure—that can last long after the drug has left the system, indicating potential long-term changes to brain chemistry.
5. CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin (5mg/5mg) – Endocrine Disruption
These are growth hormone secretagogues that force your pituitary gland to “pulse” out growth hormone.
- Pituitary Fatigue: Overuse can lead to the “shutting down” of your natural hormone production.
- Prolactin Spikes: They can cause a massive rise in prolactin, which in men can lead to gynecomastia (breast tissue growth) and in women can disrupt reproductive health.
Summary Table: Why the “Grey Market” Increases Peptide Danger
Peptide Specific Danger “Grey Market” Reality Retatrutide Cardiac Arrhythmia You are taking an experimental chemical with no “antidote.” Semaglutide Pancreatitis Vials often contain 10x the labeled dose due to poor QC. BPC-157 Cancer Acceleration It is often synthesized with toxic solvents like TFA. PT-141 Hypertensive Crisis No medical professional is there to monitor your BP.
The Bottom Line: On the grey market, you aren’t just risking the side effects of the drug; you are risking purity issues (lead/arsenic), sterility issues (bacterial sepsis), and dosage errors that a pharmacy would never make. Taking a 10mg dose of a GLP-1 without a 4-month titration period is one of the most common reasons for emergency room visits in the “biohacking” community today.
