  • NHS criteria and how they are applied in practice Replied, post #42 · Regional › UK & Ireland · 25 Jul 2026 · 27 likes Small correction to my own earlier position on NHS criteria. I had the units the wrong way round, which changes the conclusion by an order of magnitude and therefore…
  • Coming back to: Preparing for an appointment: one page, three questions Replied, post #40 · Clinical › Prescriber conversations · 23 Jul 2026 · 0 likes Good question, well framed, and I would like to see it answered properly.
  • Transit times by route, from a logged dataset Replied, post #7 · Sourcing › Logistics · 13 Jul 2026 · 30 likes I read post #6 twice before replying, because I had assumed the opposite. Packaging integrity on arrival: if a parcel arrives with compromised packaging, that is…
  • Revisiting: The best-written scientific paper you have read Replied, post #73 · Lounge › Off topic · 6 Jul 2026 · 7 likes Humour: light, relevant humour is welcome. Cruel humour targeting individuals or groups is not. This is the version I would want a new member to read first.
  • Revisiting: Protein density versus volume when you cannot eat much Replied, post #32 · Nutrition & Training › Protein & intake · 4 Jul 2026 · 5 likes Renal considerations around higher protein intake apply to people with existing renal impairment and are frequently generalised beyond that population. If that reads as…
  • Programming during a large energy deficit Replied, post #29 · Nutrition & Training › Resistance training · 1 Jul 2026 · 15 likes My experience of programming during a large energy contradicts the reply above. I am posting it as a data point rather than as a refutation, because one person's…
  • Second pass at: What a 2 ppm match establishes, and what it does not Replied, post #35 · Analytics › Mass spectrometry · 28 Jun 2026 · 22 likes Post #33 is right about the mechanism and I think understates the practical bit. The claim about 2 ppm match upthread is stronger than its source supports. I have read…
  • What a reversed-phase purity number actually is Replied, post #2 · Analytics › HPLC & UHPLC · 24 Jun 2026 · 3 likes This is why a purity figure without the underlying chromatogram is weaker evidence than it appears. It is also why two competent laboratories can report different…
  • What would change my mind about repair peptides: a specific answer Replied, post #12 · Compounds › Repair & healing peptides · 19 Jun 2026 · 0 likes The lyophilised cake is worth looking at before adding diluent. A collapsed or shrunken cake is not a purity finding but it does say something about how the vial was…
  • Racemisation and why it is invisible to a mass measurement Replied, post #109 · Analytics › Impurities & related substances · 14 Jun 2026 · 7 likes Appreciated. The plain phrasing does more work here than a longer post would.
  • Micronutrient adequacy at low total intake Replied, post #48 · Nutrition & Training › Protein & intake · 10 Jun 2026 · 5 likes Picking up post #45: that is the part I would want checked first. My experience of micronutrient adequacy contradicts the reply above. I am posting it as a data point…
  • Fasting versus non-fasting and which tests care Replied, post #45 · Clinical › Bloodwork · 9 Jun 2026 · 8 likes I read post #43 twice before replying, because I had assumed the opposite. Fasting state, time of day, recent exercise and hydration all move several common analytes.…
