You can feel like you have control of your life and body, without doing anything about sleep, exercise or food. If you like that control.

- bamboozled 1mo agoI guess "feeling like", sounds like a placebo. From what I've read there is some real risks associated with using them. Sounds a bit like the marketing of steroids in the 70s.
- victorbjorklund 1mo agoInsulin is a peptide. Not sure if it is really a placebo when a diabetic needs insulin.
- inigyou 1mo agoPeptides aren't all insulin.
- victorbjorklund 1mo agoexactly my point. That it is dumb to dismiss all peptides as useless when at least some are necessary for survival for some people.
- bamboozled 1mo agoClearly I’m not talking about insulin , people aren’t having insulin injecting parties.
- estearum 1mo agoHormones control a lot of what you describe as "feeling like." The drugs (coincidentally of shape "peptide") that have been through clinical trials are obviously measured against placebo, and they (like the approved GLP-related set of drugs) are outrageously effective beyond placebo. And have very little downsides compared to the downsides of being obese, which are far more immense than people appreciate.
