EP. 226: Grab my FREE 4 Part Video Series: GLP1s Uncovered: https://bit.ly/GLP1uncovered


In this episode, I’m getting real with you because I’m seeing way too many people getting caught up in peptide hype and misinformation, and it’s honestly potentially dangerous. From misunderstanding microdosing GLP-1s to following peptide advice from influencers who have zero medical background, the whole conversation around peptides and weight loss has been twisted into a craze at this point. I want to break down what actually matters for your health, what’s worth your time, and what’s just noise.


Topics Discussed:


→ What are the risks of following influencer health advice?


→ How can I avoid scams and unsafe peptide use?


→ What is the truth about GLP-1 microdosing?


→ How peptides are NOT hormones and don’t replace them.→ Why nutrition, exercise and foundations matter more than hype
