About AOD-9604 Source: An Editorial Research Ledger
Who publishes this site, and the line it holds.
What this site is
AOD-9604 Source is an independent editorial project that publishes summaries of the peer-reviewed research literature on AOD-9604. We are not a clinic. We do not employ clinicians and we do not provide medical advice. We do not manufacture, sell, or distribute any product. Our work is editorial commentary on publicly available science.
The "source" in the name is a research-literature signal, not a vendor one. It describes the position this publisher occupies relative to the literature — a place to read the AOD-9604 record from its sources — not an offer of any service, product, or supply. We are a reading room, not a storefront.
How we keep the ledger
Every quantitative claim on this site is posted to a study in the references index — doses, durations, half-lives, n-values, and outcomes all map to a numbered citation. We flag whether a finding comes from animals or from people, because for AOD-9604 that distinction is the whole story: the fat-metabolism mechanism is strong in mice and cells, and the pivotal human obesity trial was null.
We keep that null human result on the books on every page. The popular framing of AOD-9604 as a proven fat-loss peptide runs ahead of the evidence, and an honest ledger does not erase the column that did not balance. We report doses only as the amounts studied in named species by named routes, and we give no human dosing and no medical guidance.
What we do not claim
We do not name a founder-clinician, a medical team, or a physical clinic — there are none. We hold no address or phone line as a treatment provider. We do not offer consultation, prescription, or treatment, and nothing here should be read as such.
AOD-9604 is investigational and not approved for any use; it is not a dietary supplement; and as a growth-hormone fragment it is prohibited in sport. Those facts are part of the record we keep, not a sales position. If you are a researcher or a careful reader, this site is for you: a plain-English, fully-cited digest of what the AOD-9604 literature actually measured.
