There is lately few people sharing fear on various subforums that agmatine promote colon cancer and gave gastritis, increase h.pylori etc.
I remember back on the days claiming that agmatine reactivate herpes.
I take it for 3 years straight daily dosages 250-750mg, it depends on day.
I would say this is incredible stuff.
With cordyceps militaris my alltime fave.
This is some new study that claoms completely different that it's speculated:
Agmatine modulation of gut-brain axis alleviates dysbiosis-induced depression-like behavior in rats
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0014299924005739
Agmatine is produced primarily by beneficial gut microbes like Lactobacillus and modulates neurotransmitter systems, suggesting its potential relevance to mental health disorders, including depression. Its metabolism in peripheral organs like the liver, kidneys, and intestine, as well as its direct actions within the brain, underscore its multifaceted role in the pathophysiology of depression. Recent evidence indicates that agmatine directly influences the gut microbiota composition and functions.
I enjoy agmatine so much and have few years experience taking it that this…

Because they consider it a novel food that doesn't have the history of use to exempt it from that process.
