Any benefit from oral 5amino-1mq?

Summary

Does oral 5-amino-1mq work for fat loss and energy like the injectable version?

One user reported strong results from subq stacking but asked about oral use due to needle aversion, citing 38% bioavailability. Another tried 200mg daily oral chloride for 2.5 months after a month of liquid iodine and saw zero effect. Dosing discussions highlighted wide variation in recommendations and skepticism around converting animal data or relying on anecdotal reports.

What this discussion establishesWhere people disagree

Whether oral administration provides any benefit at all, and how to safely determine doses without human data.

Still open

What dose or form of oral 5-amino-1mq, if any, might produce effects comparable to subq use.

Nothing here is advice.

Stacking Mots-c and 5-amino-1-mq injections gave me solid results, losing 22 pounds and feeling more energetic over two months. My wife doesn't like needles but wants to try it anyway. I saw claims that the oral version has about 38% bioavailability. Has anyone had good experiences with taking it by mouth?

What dose of the 5 amino are you using? I've come across recommendations ranging from 0.5mg all the way to 150mg injected under the skin. Turning mouse data into human doses doesn't seem useful or safe.

My current dose is 1mg each day. There are some wildly high dose suggestions floating around.

I tried the oral chloride version at 200mg daily for two and a half months, following a month on the liquid iodine form. It had no effect at all.

Just wondering, how are people supposed to figure out proper doses then? I agree that using peptides without even basic animal toxicity tests or human dose-finding studies isn't safe by nature. Yet most peptides discussed here for injection or occasional oral use lack any human trials, relying instead on self-experimentation reports online, which aren't very trustworthy scientifically. Those who had bad outcomes won't be sharing, so it's skewed. That leaves guessing from rat or mouse data, though the online protocols often suggest doses far from what rodent conversions would indicate.
