In our study, PFD did not inhibit fibrosis significantly, which was possibly due to the short duration of the medication (with normal dosing involving 6 weeks of administration in a mouse model and 3-6 months in clinical trials 19,42,43 )
PlexusDx's Precision Peptide Genetic Test maps 14 metabolic pathways across 49 peptides and 150+ genetic insights, helping identify whether your plateau reflects true dose adequacy or unaddressed genetic predisposition to resistant weight loss
However, the two approaches are not mutually exclusive
