The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
it seems at least biologically plausible which doesn't make it right that at low doses you know at 10 grams of amino acids the liver itself might just prioritize gluconeogenesis and there's a saturation point at which it says oh well okay we have excess nitrogen now let's go off and do this other thing I think it's entirely plausible
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

isn't it at least biologically plausible that there is a threshold and I agree it's very unlikely a step function it's more likely a sigmoidal shaped curve but it seems at least biologically plausible which doesn't make it right that at low doses you know at 10 grams of amino acids the liver itself might just prioritize gluconeogenesis and there's a saturation point at which it says oh well okay we have excess nitrogen now let's go off and do this other thing
