'''A peptide protocol is a place to keep a record.''' Loopa tracks what you took, when, where and how you felt. It holds no knowledge about the substances and offers no guidance about them.
'''Loopa does not recommend, endorse, evaluate or advise on any peptide.''' It does not tell you what to take, how much, how often, for how long, or whether to take anything at all. Those are questions for a qualified prescriber.
'''Protocols are a Loopa Premium feature.'''
== What it is for ==
The same machinery as the other protocols, pointed at whatever you are recording:
- '''Several compounds at once''', each with its own schedule.
- '''Doses''' with the time and the injection site, and the rotation map.
- '''Symptoms''' with a severity, and '''check-ins.'''
- '''Labs''', as you enter them.
- '''Supply''' and the refill runway.
- '''Reminders''', off unless you turn them on.
Everything you type is encrypted with your own key.
== There is no compound catalog, deliberately ==
'''Names are free text.''' Loopa holds no list of peptides, does not check what you type against one, does not autocomplete it and has no opinion about it.
The only substance knowledge in the whole engine is a table of published elimination half-lives, and a row goes in there '''only''' when the figure comes from an approved product's label or a human pharmacokinetic paper about an approved product, quoted with its source.
'''So most peptide names match nothing, and Loopa says so rather than drawing a curve.''' A level chart built from a half-life somebody guessed is a picture of an assumption. An empty chart with a sentence explaining why it is empty is the honest version.
== The one setting that is yours to pick ==
'''Training focus''': strength, recovery, body composition, or general. It is the only thing about a peptide protocol that changes what the app suggests, and you choose it. Loopa derives nothing from what you entered.
'''There is no protein target on this protocol type.''' The other three set one from published guidance; there is no equivalent guidance here, and inventing a number would be pretending there is.
== No coach template ==
The other three protocol types can grant a Loopa coach a limited pattern view. '''A peptide protocol has no such template''', by decision. There is nothing to grant, and no screen that offers it.
== What Loopa will never do ==
- Suggest, set, evaluate or change a dose.
- Say whether a substance is safe, effective, legal or appropriate.
- Compare one to another.
- Draw a level curve from a number nobody published.
