[Question] how do you verify identity when there is no reference standard

Question

Been lurking in c/cagrilintide for about 2 months and finally have something worth posting.

Short version: week 61, 2.4mg, and secretagogue is the bit I still cannot get a straight answer on. I have read the wiki, I have read the last 7 threads, and the answers split roughly down the middle.

What I actually want to know is whether the people saying it does not matter have measured it, or whether it is just repeated confidently. Happy to be told I am overthinking this — I probably am — but I would rather overthink it now than at week 55.

Strongly agree. Evidence level matters.

name the compound precisely, TB-500 and Thymosin Beta-4 are not the same

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.

the research peptides literature is thin on humans

Maintenance for 13 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.

Genuine question — what concentration were you at?
