> Oh really ? Is that Science, in a non-controlled environment, no supervision of health care professionals ? I doubt anything like that is going to happen any time soon. You might've misread me as condoning this, not at all, but I think it's inevitably gonna happen and in fact already is, if you dig around a little bit (all kinds of life extension forums out there, not to mention the current nootropics trends). You don't have to agree with or like things to see them coming you know. > Plus, the public does not have access to the synthesis or new materials You wouldn't believe how much is possible to do in a home lab and dna/rna based techniques are becoming more and more accessible as well.

Sure, but combine the lack of such equipment for most people with the fact that your experiments will have small n size (because of lack of pilot plant scale to do proper large batches of drugs) and the significance of the home trial drops to nil.

  That's to be seen, and it becomes an analytics problem to separate signal from noise more than anything else. For preview google about the current issues around people 3d printing their own dental braces (or prosthetics).
