[Question] Australia — has anyone got a straight answer on half-life

Question

Genuinely asking, not being difficult.

Everyone in c/tapering repeats that half-life is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I search I get 21 threads of people agreeing with each other.

Is there a paper? Is there a measurement? Or is this one of those things that is true because it has been repeated since 2023?

I am not trying to be the "source?" guy. I would just like a source.

gastric emptying is real and explains most early the food-noise thing

amylin is not GLP-1, posts conflating them get corrected

incretin physiology is appetite, the mechanism layer

Strongly agree. Central appetite is real but people overstate it.

Small correction: the trial was 19 weeks, not 9. Does not change your point but people will quote it.

Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.
