Free six-part course for beginners
The Beginner’s Guide to Peptides
It picks your starting lesson.
Six short lessons, about twenty minutes, and you will be able to judge a peptide claim yourself.
What peptides actually are. How to tell a real finding from marketing copy. Who they are not for. And how to read a lab report before you spend anything. No doses, no protocols, no compound recommended to you.
What the course covers
The three questions everyone arrives with.
Two of them we answer properly. One of them we refuse, and the refusal is the point.
“Which peptide should I take?”
We will not answer that, and you should distrust any site that does without knowing your history. What we do instead: show what people research for each goal, with the evidence state attached, so the judgement stays yours.
“Does it actually work?”
For most compounds, nobody knows, because it has never been tested in a human being. That is a real answer, not a dodge. Lesson 2 teaches you to tell a finding from a claim in about three minutes.
“Is this for me?”
That turns on your medications, your history and your age far more than on the compound. Lesson 4 names the groups these are not for without hedging, and the drug combinations with documented risk.
What this site will and won’t do.
Will
Always
Grade every claim A to X, and link the study it came from so you can read it yourself.
Say when there is no human data. Silence gets marked Grade D, not left blank.
Show the disagreements. Where trials conflict, you get an X and an explanation.
Do arithmetic on your numbers. The calculator converts what you enter; it never suggests what to enter.
Won’t
Ever
Tell you which compound to take. That is a clinician’s job, with your chart in front of them.
Give you a dose or a protocol. Not in an article, not in a quiz, not in the calculator’s defaults.
Rank or score vendors. We show you how to read a certificate of analysis instead.
Promise anything is risk-free. No compound here is, and the ones with the least data are not the exception.
If you came here for a protocol, this is the wrong site. What you get instead is the ability to read the evidence behind any peptide claim you meet, here or on a forum or in a sales page, and work out how much of it is real.
Six lessons, from what even is a peptide to reading a lab report.
Each lesson stands alone, but they build. Lesson 2 is the one that changes how you read everything else.
The evidence scale
Every claim on this site carries one of these five grades. Lesson 2 teaches you to apply them yourself, which is the part that transfers off this site.
A
Strong human evidence
Several human trials, or a meta-analysis pooling them, pointing the same way.
B
Some human evidence
At least one randomised human trial. Real, but thinner than it sounds.
Early human evidence
Small or uncontrolled human work. Suggestive, not settled.
D
No human evidence
Animal or laboratory work only. We do not state a benefit at this grade.
X
Studies disagree
Human trials conflict, and we show you the disagreement rather than pick a side.
Two tools, waiting for you.
The peptide library
Every compound, claim by claim, each one graded A to X with the study attached. Including the ones where the honest entry is no human data exists.
Reconstitution calculator
You supply the vial size, the water and the dose; it returns the units on the syringe. It shows its working, and it will never fill in a dose for you.
