[Meta] proposal — a flair for purity posts

Janoshik Long Haul ×1

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

I have been tracking PeptideMeter against eGFR for 39 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.

Inter-lab variance on this kind of assay is routinely 1–2 points. Different column, different gradient, different integration.

Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

Yeah, the VendorInvestigate number matching the claim is the actual signal.

c/labresults rules
  1. Template required: vendor / product / batch / service / method / result. Freeform posts get removed with a template reply.
  2. Do not editorialise in the title. Put the number in the title and the opinion in the body.
  3. Sample of one. Say so.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
