I'm not a specialist but I think there are some stapled peptides that do show appreciable uptake, so the blog post is not a complete history; this review reports bioavailability of up to 70% for some agents.

It’s a great read but is this really the history of oral peptides?

Appreciate the perspective on the risk of dubious formulations. Consequences are far more than cosmetic.

I'm not sure why the hims investors ever thought that this was legal

Informative article but I feel like it could have benefited from a paragraph about what Hims is. I had never heard of them before.

great read!
