Paul Joyce, a friend of Dave’s for 22 years, explained what a peptide is, a short chain of amino acids, usually under 50, and where the GLP-1 medicines came from, a gut hormone the body already makes.

He also described having six research only peptide websites tested, with all six coming back with major flaws.
