Long post, sorry. BPC-157: what actually has human evidence behind it, and what is extrapolation from animals?
Loose evidence is not the same as no evidence and people overcorrect in both directions.
Would like a narrow answer rather than an enthusiastic one.
Is a baseline blood test really necessary before starting something like this? Fatigue was my main issue with BPC-157 too.
Same here.
How long before you can reasonably say something is or is not doing anything?
Baseline first.
I would take the narrow conclusion. Broad ones are more interesting and less true.
Most of what is called evidence here is one person, one vial, one month.
What is the first thing you would read if you were starting from zero?

Narrow conclusion, briefly right. Broad conclusion, interestingly wrong. I know which I keep choosing. Not on BPC-157 but the pattern is familiar.

Nobody has ever been talked out of a stack by a stranger on the internet.
An inconclusive account is useful if it stops the next person mistaking a story for a controlled comparison.
Loose evidence and no evidence are different, and people overcorrect in both directions. A year in on BPC-157 and it lines up.
