11 months in and testing is still the thing I get wrong

PSA Long Haul ×8 Slow Clap ×1 Sourced ×1

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

I have been tracking vendor against eGFR for 27 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.

You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.

the reship rate on TFC is actually pretty consistent

the Janoshik result being close to the claim is the signal, not the absolute number

Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.

Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 11–5. Practical consequence: what you feel in week 1 is not what that dose does.

About c/vendorvetting

The community due-diligence desk. Vendor experiences, independent third-party test results, shipping and reship records, and the boring paperwork that separates a supplier from a story. Every substantive claim is expected to carry a receipt: an order id, a dated screenshot, or a test report from Janoshik, Medutest, PeptideMeter or VendorInvestigate.
