- 3/10 · Animal only 5-Amino-1MQ A small-molecule NNMT inhibitor (not a peptide) studied for obesity and metabolic disease. The promising data are entirely in mice; there is no verifiable human trial and no approval.
- 1/10 · Unsupported AICAR AICAR (acadesine) is a small-molecule AMPK activator — not a peptide — famous for making sedentary mice run farther, but with no credible human evidence for endurance, fat loss, or longevity. It is an unapproved experimental drug, banned in sport at all times.
- 7/10 · Moderate Cardarine (GW-501516) Cardarine (GW-501516) is a synthetic PPARδ agonist, not a peptide or SARM, abandoned in development after rodent studies showed multi-organ cancer; it is banned in sport and has no approved human use.
- 3/10 · Animal only GW-0742 GW-0742 is a synthetic small-molecule PPARδ agonist and close sibling of cardarine (GW-501516) — not a peptide and not a SARM. It has no human efficacy data, a serious carcinogenicity concern inherited from its near-twin, and is banned in sport at all times.
- 6/10 · Preliminary Selank A Russian-developed anxiolytic peptide approved in Russia but unproven by Western standards; human trials are small, early, and single-country.
- 3/10 · Animal only SLU-PP-332 SLU-PP-332 is a synthetic small-molecule pan-agonist of the estrogen-related receptors (ERRα/β/γ) studied as an 'exercise mimetic' — not a peptide, and animal-stage only with no human data.
- 5/10 · Early VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) A natural anti-inflammatory neuropeptide with no FDA-approved product; its largest rigorous human trial was negative, and the intranasal 'CIRS' and biohacking uses sold online rest on a single research group's uncontrolled reports.
