How to Read GLP-1 Research Without the Hype

Incretin drugs produced some of the largest weight-loss results in trial history. Understanding what those trials measured — and what they did not — is the difference between literacy and enthusiasm.

Recovery Science: What Actually Has Evidence

Before any compound enters the conversation, the interventions with the strongest recovery evidence are unglamorous and free.

Understanding Our Evidence Grades

Every compound in the library carries a grade from A to E. Here is exactly what each grade means and how it is assigned.

GLP-1 Beyond Weight: What the Outcome Trials Actually Show

Weight change is the headline. The trials that measured cardiovascular events and kidney progression are the more consequential literature — and they are read far less often.

The Lean Mass Question Nobody Asks About Rapid Weight Loss

Scales measure mass, not tissue. When weight falls quickly, some of what leaves is muscle and bone — and the research on preserving it is thinner than the research on losing weight.

Evidence Rating

Not all evidence is equal. We grade it.

Every compound gets a grade from A to E for how much is known about it in humans — not how promising it sounds. Each page explains its grade.

How grading works
  • A
    Strong Clinical Evidence

    Multiple randomised controlled trials in humans, typically supporting an approved indication.

  • B
    Moderate Human Evidence

    Several human trials exist, but they are limited in size, duration or consistency.

  • C
    Early Human Research

    Small, early-phase or single-centre human studies only. Findings are preliminary.

  • D
    Preclinical Research

    Animal and laboratory research only. No meaningful published human data.

  • E
    Experimental / Limited Evidence

    Very little published research of any kind. Discussion is largely theoretical or anecdotal.
