Ipamorelin methodology

Posting this half expecting to get told I’ve got it backwards.

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.

Not looking for anything other than what people have actually run into.

The methodology page covers the weighting question directly. Purity gets the largest share because it is the most reliably measurable thing they assess.

Quantitative amino acid analysis is what actually verifies content. Weighing the lyophilised powder does not, because you are also weighing residual salts and moisture.

The effect size in that study was statistically significant and clinically trivial. Those are not the same finding and the abstract does not make the difference obvious.
