GHK-Cu specifically โ the copper can cause a transient metallic taste. Well-documented. Harmless. It's the compound, not you.

If the taste persists for hours or you feel nauseous, that's a different conversation. Transient metallic = copper, fine.

yep same thing happens to me, lasts like 30 seconds then gone. copper taste is definitely noticeable but honestly kinda reassuring that it means the peptide actually made it in
