genuine question about appetite that I am slightly embarrassed to ask

Needs Source Receipts ×6

Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles.

The claim: mechanism matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides have been asserting it confidently for about 8 months without either producing anything.

What would actually settle it is 17 people measuring the same thing the same way. I have started; my numbers are below. They lean one way but not strongly enough for me to declare victory.

If you have data, post the data. If you have an opinion, flair it as an opinion.

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

do not extrapolate rodent data to human dosing without saying so

the 17-day half-life means week 17 is still ramp-up pharmacokinetically

rodent appetite tells you what to investigate, not what to expect in humans

the half-life is receptor, affects steady state timing

Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.

I am going to push back on this slightly.

Yeah, the incretin mechanism is doing the work here.

Which paper are you quoting?

The evidence standard in c/vendorvetting gets called too strict about once a month, and every time, the thread ends with the complainant agreeing.
