Important Notice Regarding Equine Product Scams. As many are aware, Equine Performance Peptides' product was instrumental in bringing Kota out of retirement to secure the reserve champion title at the RSNC championship in Fort Worth, Texas, last year. Recently, Dave Shaffner has been misleadingly promoting a colostrum milk product in videos alongside Jason Bacon, falsely claiming it was responsible for the achievement. I wish to inform everyone that I have filed criminal charges against Jason Bacon for theft exceeding $5000, as evidence suggests that his product initially contained peptides from my company. Furthermore, it has come to light that Jason Bacon's products are being manufactured in a residential setting, prompting investigations by law enforcement agencies, the FDA, and the FTC. I am taking a firm stance against unscrupulous individuals who compromise animal and human health. I urge caution regarding Jason Bacon, his associates, including Casie, and their products, which lack proper insurance coverage. Notably, their packaging falsely claims FDA and GMP compliance, constituting a serious felony offense. The public should be aware of these egregious crimes and the potential risks associated with these products.
