High-fat or high-sugar meals whilst not contraindicated, these may worsen gastrointestinal side effects, particularly during the dose escalation phase
In experimental models it modulates angiogenesis (upregulating VEGF/VEGFR2 and the nitric oxide pathway), reduces pro-inflammatory cytokine signaling, supports fibroblast migration and collagen synthesis for connective-tissue repair, and influences gut-barrier integrity and neural pathways mechanisms that span musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, and neurological tissue in preclinical research
It is also explored for its role in enhancing how the body processes nutrients and converts them into usable energy
