Gonna push back on this one. Coronary artery calcium score is not that straightforward in my experience. I have been on this for 12 months and the reality is messier than the trials suggest.
Don't get me wrong — the medication works. But cost accessibility is a real barrier. We should be honest about that.
Adding my data to this Coronary artery calcium discussion:

| hsCRP | 6.0 | 4.0 | 0.6 |
Protocol: Semaglutide 1.7mg/wk, resistance training 3x/wk, protein 1.4g/kg/day.
Trusted third-party HPLC & mass spectrometry analysis. Verify peptide purity with the lab the community relies on. Independent. Accurate. Transparent.
Verify Your PeptidesSlightly tangential to Coronary artery calcium but stefan_berlin reminded me — what is the latest on the oral formulations?
I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.
