What you'll be able to do

By Course End

01.
Evaluate any peptide claim with rigor
Read research with a critical eye. Spot weak evidence. Distinguish preclinical animal data from validated human trials.
02.
Navigate the regulatory landscape
Understand the FDA Category 1/2/3 system, compounding pharmacies, and where the legal lines actually sit in 2026.
03.
Decode any protocol you encounter
Read dosing units, cycle schedules, and reconstitution math. Calculate exact doses. Spot red flags in internet protocols.
04.
Build a personal peptide strategy
Goal-driven thinking. Choose compounds that match your actual objective. Walk into a clinician conversation prepared.
