I read the CBC piece about the FDA panel reviewing seven peptides while they’re blowing up on social media and in biohacking circles. The article notes how these things are creeping out of anti-aging clinics and into the general wellness market, fuelled by influencers and RFK Jr. Shouting about them.

Honestly, it feels like every time I scroll the forum there’s a new thread about someone’s first cycle of BPC-157 or TB-500, and now there’s actual regulatory chatter happening instead of just whispers. The piece mentions peptides moving from niche to burgeoning, and I can see it, my own protocol got more cautious after a buddy posted about joint issues he blamed on sketchy sourcing.
