Why People Are Ditching Reta for Tirzepatide

Yesterday I broke down why Tirzepatide is the better choice, and it’s not even close.

Here’s that article if you missed it:

Today I want to talk about something harder to measure but impossible to ignore once you hear enough people say the same thing.

Reta is flattening people out emotionally.

I’ve had several people I know who’ve taken Reta who told me that they’ve felt emotional flatness.

It’s all over TikTok as well.

And a popular fitness creator named Clavicular just came out and said 10mg of Retatrutide “literally rapes you.” His words.

He described feeling completely apathetic, like his personality had changed.

And he’s not the only one.

One guy in my comments said he’s been on just 3mg of Reta for 2-3 months and is experiencing psychological side effects.

Joy of life gone. Apathy.

Another guy DMed me saying he took just 1mg for a month and got hit with flu-like symptoms so bad he calls it “the Reta flu.”

He just switched to Tirzepatide through Kino Clinic.

I’ve heard a lot of anecdotes like this about Reta.

Anhedonia, emotional flatness, feeling like a different person (and Reta Flu).

I have not heard these reports on Tirzepatide.

It’s worth asking why...

Retatrutide hits three receptors: GLP-1, GIP, and Glucagon.

That third receptor is the one worth paying attention to.

Glucagon is a catabolic stress hormone. It mobilizes stored energy, and it doesn’t care whether that energy comes from fat or muscle.

Retatrutide activates a catabolic stress hormone that Tirzepatide doesn’t touch.

Whether that’s what’s directly behind these reports isn’t confirmed yet, but the anecdotal pattern is consistent enough to pay attention to.

If your body is under chronic catabolic stress, it’s not a stretch to think your mood could take a hit too.

The thing is, you don’t need Glucagon.

Tirzepatide hits two receptors, GLP-1 and GIP, and that’s more than enough to get as lean as you want.

I proved it on my own protocol.

*I got down to 5.3% bodyfat with Tirzepatide while maintaining all muscle.

You can lose the fat, keep the muscle, and not feel like a zombie in the process.

Reta may be overkill, and these reports suggest it comes with trade-offs that aren’t worth it.

What guys are actually experiencing on Tirzepatide

There can be an adaptation phase where things may feel a little bit flat at first, but you adjust after a few weeks.

But it’s not a common side effect with Tirzepatide.

Most people don’t get this.

And people using tirzep through Kino Clinic aren’t just losing fat.

They’re telling me they feel more locked in mentally than they have in a long time.

This is what we’ve been seeing across the board.

Especially at the conservative doses we recommend for most people at Kino Clinic.

Guys are dropping fat steadily without the psychological toll, the elevated heart rate, or the brutal side effects that come with slamming a third receptor your body doesn’t need activated.
