Methodology

Where our research library comes from, how it is labelled, and where its limits are.

Sources

Every compound profile starts from our protocol registry: 36 compounds whose studied ranges, schedules, cycles and contraindications were checked in a medical review, signed off on August 31, 2026. Numbers on our pages come from that registry and nowhere else.

Around the registry sit editorial summaries: what each compound is, how it is thought to work, and what it has been studied for. Studies are cited from PubMed, and each citation is checked against its PMID so every link points to a paper that exists with the title we show.

Research status labels

Each profile carries one label describing how far the human evidence goes.

  • Preclinical. Evidence comes from cell and animal studies. No controlled human trials yet.
  • Early clinical. Small or early-phase human studies exist, typically safety and dose-finding.
  • Late clinical. Larger controlled human trials have been run or are under way.
  • Approved analog. The compound, or a close analog, is an approved medicine somewhere, which is not the same as approval for research-use products.

How dosing is presented

Our pages describe studied ranges: the amounts, schedules and cycle lengths that published research protocols have used. They are a summary of the literature, not instructions, and nothing on this site tells anyone how much of anything to use.

The specifics for a product you have ordered are in the protocol guide that ships with the order. That guide is fixed at the time of shipping so it always matches what is in the box.

The AI chat and its limits

Our chat assistant is powered by Claude, a model made by Anthropic. It answers only from our own library (the registry, the compound profiles, our policies and the cited studies) and it will decline questions outside that scope, including personal medical advice.

It can be wrong. Treat an answer as a starting point, check it against the cited studies, and talk to a qualified clinician before making any health decision. If the chat cannot help, it can hand the conversation to our team.

Content updates and review status

The registry numbers are medically reviewed before they appear. Some supporting content, such as FAQs, glossary definitions, comparison summaries and study selections, is published as a draft and then reviewed by a person, and stays marked as a draft until a reviewer approves it. When the registry or the research changes, profiles are updated and re-reviewed.

Research use

Products described on this site are provided for research purposes. Nothing here is a medical claim, and no product is intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
