In the 1960s, Maibach and Kligman 16 analyzed sunless tanner with varying DHA concentrations as a treatment for vitiligo, finding that 5% DHA concentration was satisfactory for White patients, while up to 30% concentration was necessary for Black patients
Evidence of this ability to recycle vitamin C and strengthen blood vessels can be seen in animal studies, where the addition of flavonoids to a vitamin C deficient population leads to significantly less bleeding
A practical default is to treat most reconstituted peptide solutions as short-term materials: refrigerate at 2-8 C , protect from light, minimize vial punctures, and plan to use or discard the vial within about 28 days unless the supplier provides compound-specific stability data
There are some potential biases in these data that we need to be cautious about, but this gives us some valuable insights about the risk profile of these agents that can inform subsequent studies perhaps even a randomized controlled trial that can tease out the specific mechanisms and provide more conclusive evidence. Reduced risk overall GLP-1 receptor agonists have been approved in the United States to treat diabetes since 2005 and obesity since 2014
