Why we cycle off, even when it's working

Standing protocols and cycled ones are different products. Knowing which you bought is most of the outcome.

Some things here are standing: metabolic and longevity protocols, re-labbed every ninety days, adjusted, continued. Others are blocks — eight to twelve weeks with a written end date.

Cycled protocols exist because receptor systems adapt and because a defined block forces a decision. At the end you either got the outcome or you didn't, and both answers are useful. Open-ended dosing hides the failure.

It also keeps cost honest. If the block ends and the joint is fine, you stop paying us. That's the design.

When you re-lab at day ninety, we're not looking for permission to continue. We're looking for a reason to.

An open-ended protocol is usually a protocol nobody is still reading.
