UnprovenNot Enough Human EvidenceDo Not Self Administer

Does BPC-157 heal tendon and ligament injuries in humans?

No strong human evidence shows that BPC-157 heals tendon or ligament injuries. Most support is animal, cell or mechanism-based, and internet recovery claims should not be treated as proven clinical benefit.

UnprovenVery LowDo Not Self Administer

Does TB-500 speed injury recovery?

TB-500 injury-recovery claims are not supported by strong human clinical evidence. The claim often relies on extrapolation from thymosin beta-4 biology and should be treated as unproven.

Does rapamycin slow aging in humans?

Rapamycin has unusually strong aging-biology interest, but it is not proven to slow human aging or extend lifespan in healthy adults. Off-label longevity use remains a medical decision, not a protocol from an article.

Does NMN raise NAD+ and slow aging?

NMN may affect NAD-related biomarkers in some studies, but that does not prove it slows human aging. The stronger claim needs clinical outcomes, not only a molecule-level signal.

Why this is different

Read methodology

Not a protocol generator

No dosing calculators, cycle builders or personalized medical instructions.

Not a clinic funnel

Claim pages separate editorial verdicts from paid services and telehealth incentives.

Not a supplement brand

Commercial incentives are labeled instead of hidden inside wellness copy.

Not forum lore

Community chatter can explain demand, but source cards carry the evidence load.

Not academic jargon

Plain-English verdicts explain what the source does and does not prove.

AI-assisted, source-linked

Automation helps triage claims; high-risk pages are flagged for review.

EXPLAINER

Does BPC-157 heal injuries in humans?

BPC-157 has animal and mechanism-heavy discussion, but that is not the same as strong human injury evidence.

DATA NOTE

Are compounded peptides FDA-approved?

Compounding can be lawful in some circumstances, but compounded drugs themselves are not FDA-approved products.

Evidence Desk

We apply a consistent methodology to separate signal from noise.

1. Detect

We scan high-quality sources and preprints for new claims and data.

2. Evaluate

We assess study design, sample size, controls, replication, and bias.

3. Rate

We assign an evidence tag and explain our reasoning.

4. Track

We monitor claims over time as new data emerges.
