So what's better UGL or Pharma?
Well they both have advantages over each other but I believe Pharma is a better choice where possible because of one main reason ??? safety.
To me, keeping safe & healthy as possible is important when using steroids. Choosing Pharma over UGL is one such precaution I can take to limit the health risks when using steroids.
Obviously there are unavoidable risks & side effects that come with the use of steroids whether it's UGL or Pharma. It makes no difference whether someone is using UGL or Pharma test e for example, there's going to be health side effects from high dose testosterone in equal proportion from both.
Do you know what's in your oil?
Well there's really no way of knowing exactly what's in the oil without getting it tested. But using Pharma gives you that reassurance that the product has been manufactures under strict sterile conditions & safety checked in the process. That's a reassurance that doesn't come with UGL.
There has been high levels of bacteria found in UGL oils but that's not the only worrying thing. It's things like toxic heavy metals such as tin, lead, mercury & arsenic that has been found in UGL products. It's also said that the contamination with these toxic heavy metals come from the raw powders. There could be 10 UGLs all using the same raw powder supplier resulting in multiple labs with these unwanted metals in their oil.
I've personally had experience where I've seen brown particles floating around in the oil of a UGL product. I've also seen people report the same thing with pictures to support their claim. I have no idea what the particles are, I do know I don't want them in my body & it makes you wonder about the things that can't been seen in the oil. I've also see someone find that the contents of the vial did not match the label.
If any of the above things were to be found in a pharmaceutical steroid I think there would be panic, outrage & a mass product recall.
Dosing
As mentioned above, pharma steroids are manufactured under strict, licensed conditions which not only ensures the end product is as safe as possible but accurately dosed. Some UGLs have been tested, found to be under dosed & over dosed, not only slightly over dosed but dosed at more than double of that stated on the label. Now some of you may be thinking that's cool, but it's not, inaccurate dosing is dangerous.
So what's better about UGL then?
There are a few advantages UGL has over pharma such as cost, more easily available, high dosed mg/ml products & much wider range of products but I'm just going to talk about the product range as this is the main one.
Don't get me wrong here, I'm not saying you should not use UGL because I have & still do. There are plenty of UGLs out there that produce good products but I'm very selective about which labs I use.
Someone could always run a Pharma only cycle but they would be limited to the compounds available. For example my beloved Tbol is produced only by UGLs so I have no choice other than to use a UGL for this. I think it's a good idea to cycle with a mix of both Pharma & a reputable UGL. When it comes to PCT meds I use nothing other than Pharma.
I should also just add that not all pharma is equal, I'm sure pharmaceutical companies in Iran for example have different manufacturing regulations to that of the UK. I think it's good practice to be selective with both Pharma & UGL.
So that's my take on the UGL vs Pharma debit. They both have advantages over each other but the safer end product that comes with good Pharma out weighs any reason to choose a UGL product that's available as pharmaceutical grade.
