Evidence desk

The research-methods toolkit pointed at specific things — supplements, peptides, and the people selling them. Each entry runs one claim through the ladder and lands on a verdict: worth it, skip it, or try it as your own experiment. Built to answer the only question that matters: should I actually do this?

Claims & items

One supplement or intervention per page: the claim, what the evidence really says once you account for funding and weak outcomes, and a by-phase call. A private note holds the personalized version.

Supplement Collagen Real but funding-skewed skin evidence, a poor muscle protein — and where it fits a Zepbound cut. → Peptide BPC-157 & the biohacker peptides Reddit's miracle healers — how much is preclinical, anecdotal, or untested in humans. Supplement Creatine The rare cheap, strong-evidence supplement — and what it does on a cut vs a build.

Source scorecards

The people whose recommendations shape these decisions, scored claim-by-claim with sources: where they track the evidence, where they outrun it, and who pays them.
