Ricardo is the founder and research editor of Peptide Choice Guide. His academic background is in Business Administration and Management, complemented by postgraduate study in sports business management, sports coaching and high-performance psychology.
His role at Peptide Choice Guide is focused on research organization, editorial direction, supplier and market research, comparison frameworks and the development of an accessible independent information resource.
Work in the peptide research space
Ricardo has developed professional relationships with people working across the peptide research and supplier ecosystem, including founders, editors, researchers and industry teams. These relationships provide useful context for understanding the market, but commercial relationships are kept separate from editorial scoring and evidence assessment.
Editorial responsibility
Peptide Choice Guide does not present Ricardo as a physician, scientist or clinical authority. Scientific claims are evaluated against their underlying sources, and uncertainty or missing evidence is identified rather than presented as established fact.
AI-assisted editorial process
Peptide Choice Guide uses AI tools, including ChatGPT, as part of its editorial workflow for research organization, drafting, analysis, structure and content development. AI assistance is not treated as a scientific source. Factual and scientific claims are checked against the cited evidence before publication.
