Long post, sorry. TL;DR at the bottom if you don’t want the whole thing.
The gap between what the study measured and what people claim it showed is genuinely enormous.
Rodent study. Always a rodent study. I’m not saying that makes it worthless, I’m saying I wish people led with it.
Most of what gets cited for this traces back to one group publishing in the same journal repeatedly. That’s not damning on its own but it’s worth knowing.
The part I keep getting stuck on is that everyone’s confident and nobody agrees, which usually means the evidence is thinner than the discussion.
TL;DR: I went looking for a straight answer on Oxytocin and came back with more questions. Details above.
