Welcome back to Peptides for Women Podcast!In this solo episode, I’m diving into a topic I’ve been wanting to cover for a long time: the seven peptides every woman in perimenopause should understand. After more than a decade working in women’s health and hormones, I see over and over again how perimenopause creates a full-body signaling shift, impacting metabolism, energy, inflammation, sleep, muscle, skin, gut health, and immune resilience. Once lifestyle foundations like nutrition, rest, movement, stress management, and minerals are dialed in, peptides can become a powerful way to restore communication between systems that are no longer responding the way they used to.I walk you through why how estrogen and growth hormone decline drive many midlife symptoms, and how peptides can help your cells remember how to function again. This episode is meant to educate, not replace medical care, and to help you understand why certain peptides are so impactful during the perimenopause transition.In This Episode, I Cover:Why perimenopause is a metabolic and cellular event, not just hormonalHow estrogen and growth hormone decline affect energy, muscle, fat, and inflammationWhy lifestyle alone often stops working in midlifeMOTS-c for mitochondrial function, metabolism, and fat signalingNAD+ for cellular energy, DNA repair, and mitochondrial biogenesisGrowth hormone secretagogues (CJC-1295, ipamorelin, sermorelin, tesamorelin) for muscle, sleep, and recoveryGHK-Cu for collagen production, skin, hair, and tissue repairBPC-157 for gut integrity, inflammation, and healingTB-500 for joints, fascia, connective tissue, and recoveryThymosin alpha-1 for immune balance and resilience in midlifeWhy sourcing, dosing strategy, cycling, and medical oversight matterContraindications and situations where peptides are not appropriateConnect with Me!Website: ⁠https://jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/jenniferwoodwardnutrition/Links & Resources:🔗 Learn more at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠elliemd.com/JenniferWoodwardNutrition⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🎯 Take my free peptide quiz and get a personalized, midlife-smart roadmap for the peptides that actually match your symptoms and goals: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://quiz.jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/peptide-quiz⁠⁠🎓 Enroll in the Peptides for Practitioners Certification Course to learn safe, ethical peptide use—50% off for FEBRUARY only: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.carrotsncake.com/offers/Hrosw4Mc/checkout?coupon_code=MARCHJENNIFER⁠⁠⁠🧬 Want to pair GLP-1s with functional lab testing? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://learn.jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/invitation⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Grab The Body Edit Guide here for full protocols, labs, and more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://stan.store/jenniferwoodwardnutrition/p/get-the-body-edit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠‼️Disclaimer‼️This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

Welcome back to Peptides for Women podcast!In this episode, I’m joined by returning guests Kayla and Mike Neal to talk about the next phase of peptide use; what happens after GLP-1s are working and you start asking, “I feel good… so what’s next?” We discuss how peptides can evolve over time, why foundations still matter, and how midlife women and men can continue building energy, muscle, and confidence instead of accepting decline as inevitable.Kayla also shares her personal perimenopause journey, including microdosing GLP-1s, maintaining lean muscle, and layering in peptides like NAD+ and growth hormone secretagogues. Mike brings the male perspective; staying strong, recovering better, and chasing optimal performance in midlife. We also talk through real client case studies, healing and recovery peptides, and why support, education, and coaching make all the difference.In This Episode, We Cover:Why many people ask “what’s next?” after success with GLP-1 peptidesKayla’s perimenopause journey and unexpected fat gain during COVIDMicrodosing GLP-1s to lose fat while preserving muscleWhy lifestyle foundations must come before peptidesUsing NAD+ to support energy and stamina in midlifeGrowth hormone secretagogues (like tesamorelin) for muscle and visceral fatHow peptides supported strength, recovery, and motivation in the gymHealing and skin repair with copper peptides after injuryWhy lean muscle is critical for longevity in women and menReal client results using data, body composition, and long-term coachingThe importance of partner support during health transitionsWhy midlife doesn’t have to mean slowing downConnect with Kayla & Mike Neal!Website: https://www.kaylajohnsonfitness.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kaylajohnsonfitness/Links & Resources:🔗 Learn more at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠elliemd.com/JenniferWoodwardNutrition⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🎯 Take my free peptide quiz and get a personalized, midlife-smart roadmap for the peptides that actually match your symptoms and goals: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://quiz.jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/peptide-quiz⁠⁠🎓 Enroll in the Peptides for Practitioners Certification Course to learn safe, ethical peptide use—50% off for FEBRUARY only: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.carrotsncake.com/offers/Hrosw4Mc/checkout?coupon_code=MARCHJENNIFER⁠⁠⁠🧬 Want to pair GLP-1s with functional lab testing? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://learn.jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/invitation⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Grab The Body Edit Guide here for full protocols, labs, and more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://stan.store/jenniferwoodwardnutrition/p/get-the-body-edit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠‼️Disclaimer‼️This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

Welcome back to Peptides for Women podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Dean Jones, and we’re diving into what’s really happening in the peptide and GLP-1 space right now. This is an important, timely conversation about regulation, safety, dosing, and why so much of the current GLP-1 messaging online is missing the bigger picture, especially for midlife women.We talk about the growing scrutiny around research peptides, why GLP-1s are under the microscope, and how fear-based headlines are creating confusion for patients. Dr. Jones explains the difference between aggressive weight-loss dosing and more conservative, long-term metabolic dosing, why microdosing is gaining traction, and how GLP-1s actually work in the brain and body beyond appetite suppression. If you’re trying to understand GLP-1s without hype (or panic), this episode brings clarity.In this episode, we cover:Why GLP-1s are facing increased regulatory scrutinyThe difference between research peptides and prescription useHow misinformation is shaping public fear around GLP-1sWhy high dosing often backfires long-termWhat microdosing GLP-1s is, and who it’s forAppetite regulation vs true metabolic supportFood noise, weight regain, and brain signalingMuscle loss concerns and how dosing impacts outcomesWhy lowest effective dose matters for sustainabilityWhat the future of GLP-1 therapy may look likeConnect with Dr. Jones, DC!Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://drjonesdc.com/pfwpod⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/drjones_dc/ ⁠⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@drjonesdc⁠Links & Resources:🔗 Learn more at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠elliemd.com/JenniferWoodwardNutrition⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🎯 Take my free peptide quiz and get a personalized, midlife-smart roadmap for the peptides that actually match your symptoms and goals: ⁠https://quiz.jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/peptide-quiz🎓 Enroll in the Peptides for Practitioners Certification Course to learn safe, ethical peptide use—50% off for FEBRUARY only: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.carrotsncake.com/offers/Hrosw4Mc/checkout?coupon_code=MARCHJENNIFER⁠⁠🧬 Want to pair GLP-1s with functional lab testing? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://learn.jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/invitation⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Grab The Body Edit Guide here for full protocols, labs, and more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://stan.store/jenniferwoodwardnutrition/p/get-the-body-edit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠‼️Disclaimer‼️This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.
