Thoughts on the latest Adipotide fat‑loss peptide article I saw

Hey y’all I just came across a news piece about Adipotide (FTPP) that talked about how it cuts off blood supply to white fat in animal models and caused rapid weight loss without messing with appetite honestly it sounded almost too good to be true the article also mentioned the kidney toxicity warnings from the primate studies and I couldn’t help but wonder if that’s a deal breaker for human use I’ve read a bit about other fat‑loss peptides that seem milder so I’m curious if anyone here has seen more recent human safety data or if the field is still stuck in preclinical land honestly what do y’all think is the biggest hurdle moving forward? Would love to hear your take on whether the risk‑reward balance could ever tip in its favor or if we should just keep looking at other options.
