§ 03 — METHODE

Een bewijsklasse voor elke claim.

We beoordelen verbindingen op de kracht, onafhankelijkheid en replicatie van het bewijs dat hun gepromote gebruik ondersteunt — niet op de vraag of ze in principe "werken".
3 verbindingen
S
Standard di cura
Meerdere hoogwaardige, onafhankelijke RCT's. Geautoriseerd door EMA of nationale instantie. Gevestigd mechanisme.
3 verbindingen
A
Forte
≥2 voldoende krachtige RCT's bij mensen met consistente effectgrootte. Plausibel mechanisme. Geen tegensprekende data van betekenis.
4 verbindingen
B
Moderato
Eén voldoende krachtige humane studie, plus ondersteunende in-vitro / dier-data. Effect plausibel, nog niet gerepliceerd.
0 verbindingen
C
Limitato
Alleen pilot- of open-label humane data. Of sterke preklinische evidentie zonder klinische vertaling. Voorzichtigheid geboden.
0 verbindingen
D
Aneddotico
Geen klinisch bewijs. Gebruikersmeldingen, forumdata, claims van verkopers. Mechanisme kan speculatief of geëxtrapoleerd zijn.
0 verbindingen
F
Confutato
Hoogwaardige studie(s) hebben het geclaimde effect niet kunnen aantonen, of bekende schade weegt zwaarder dan het gepromote voordeel.

§ 05 — INVESTIGATIONS

The reporting nobody selling these has incentive to fund.

Long-form investigative pieces — six to twelve weeks of work each — drawing on freedom-of-information requests, lab testing, and direct interviews.
[ EDITORIAL PHOTO · Rotterdam port, container inspection ] Cover · 6 weeks reporting
Investigation · 4-part series

How “research-only” peptides reach 40,000 European customers a month — and the Rotterdam pharmacy that supplies most of them.

Six weeks of port records, supplier interviews and independent assay testing reveal a supply chain hiding in plain sight inside the EU's compounding exemption. We name the importers, the broker, and the compounding pharmacy at the centre.

Field test

We tested every “BPC-157” sold to Dutch consumers. Half were something else.

Independent HPLC-MS testing of 22 products purchased anonymously. Four contained no peptide at all.

Data investigation

The German compounding loophole keeping cheap GLP-1 alive — for now.

How §13 AMG creates a legal shelter that the EMA is no longer willing to defend in court.
