Hi there thanks so much for that but I know have a duplicate, what code do i delete to remove the original text thank you!

In the main-product.liquid file, check if you can find another {{ product.description }}. If there is a second one, you can delete it.
If you still encounter difficulties, you can send the store information to my email and I will assist you
