In this solo episode of The Peptide Pulse, Dr. Adam Boender challenges the mainstream biohacking narrative and reframes the conversation around peptides—from shortcut culture to sustainable healing.

Together, we unpack how true optimization begins at the cellular level—and why peptides aren't "hacks," but messengers of regeneration, recovery, and renewal.

🔍 TOPICS COVERED:
 • Biohacking vs bio-optimization: what’s the difference?
 • Peptides for libido, metabolism, and brain health
 • Fat loss vs weight loss: clearing the confusion
 • Cellular longevity, sleep, and the gut-brain connection
 • Why peptides are not a fad—and what’s next

💡 Perfect for: clinicians, high-performers, and anyone exploring regenerative health and functional medicine.
