Six popular peptides under scrutiny, researchers say evidence is thin

There's a new review out of LA that looked at six peptides people keep using for joint and tissue stuff and basically said the evidence backing them up is pretty weak. Most of the data is still rat work or small uncontrolled stuff, not real human trials, which honestly tracks with what I've been saying for a while now.

The frustrating part is how often these get passed around as proven when they're really not. Just because something heals a rat tendon faster doesn't mean it'll do anything for someone running on a wrecked Achilles. I'd rather see the community get more honest about that gap instead of acting like anecdotal results settle it.

For anyone here running BPC or TB for actual injuries, do you weigh animal data differently than you used to, or has your view shifted at all?
