someone explain PBS to me like I have not read a paper in years

PBS Clean Column ×1 Slow Clap ×3

Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom.

I have been tracking PBS against ApoB for 35 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. The correlation is weaker than I expected, which is itself mildly interesting given how confidently people link the two in here.

Caveats up front: one person, one lab, one assay, no control, and I changed my training in the middle of it, which was stupid.

tl;dr: probably real, definitely smaller than the threads imply, and not worth reorganising your week around.

Maintenance for 11 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.
