How we work.
Compound Codex exists to do one thing well: report what the research actually shows about peptides and the compounds people stack with them. Here's what that means in practice.
Compound Codex is informational. We don’t sell peptides or anything else through the site — the evidence grade is the whole product.
Every compound gets a single evidence grade — Strong human down to No credible evidence — based on the strength of the human data, not popularity. The full scale is on the methodology page.
Claims are tied to primary sources — trials, FDA and regulatory records, anti-doping listings — and we flag when most of a compound’s research traces back to a single lab.
We cover what a compound is and what the evidence shows — never how much to take, how to cycle, or what to stack. Dosing is a question for a clinician, not a website.
Spot an error? Tell us, with a source, and we’ll correct it. Corrections are the point — not an embarrassment.
No sponsor or advertiser decides a grade. The site runs on no ads and no sponsorships, so the call on a compound is ours and the reader’s alone.
Educational content only — nothing here is medical advice. Questions or corrections: see the community page.
