I’ve never heard of cyclic peptides. But I suppose it is possible.
Actually the HPLC study we cite talks about a similar possibility—they say the observed effects may be due to “cryptic peptides”, perhaps created by the lysing of larger proteins and peptides. It just seems very unlikely to me. To me, based on my metascience research, it’s a it easier to believe that the published literature is just plain wrong. Check out the HPLC paper—it’s he only we found doing that sort of analysis but it’s very detailed (https://analyticalsciencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/dta.1817).
