help me understand appetite, I have read the wiki twice
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful.
Setup: 15mg, week 71, sulphur burps present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — gastric emptying — and tracked it for 23 weeks.
Result: a difference, but a small one, and well inside what I would call noise if someone else posted it. So I am putting it here rather than presenting it as a finding. If two or three other people have done the same thing we might actually learn something.
Not medical advice, obviously. This is one person with a spreadsheet.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Strongly agree. Central appetite is real but people overstate it.
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
Retitled to remove editorialising. Put the evidence in the body.
Stomach physiology changed when I moved up to 2.5mg. Gastric emptying lag is the whole story.
The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.
Yeah, the incretin mechanism is doing the work here.
amylin is not GLP-1, posts conflating them get corrected
Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.
receptor distribution matters, GLP-1 is not everywhere

Adding to this: gastric emptying is doing more work than the comment implies.
The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.
