In this solo episode, I'm breaking down one of the most talked-about tools in the health optimization world right now—peptides. From healing faster to building lean muscle, improving fat loss, enhancing sleep, and even slowing down the aging process… peptides are powerful. But they're also misunderstood, under-regulated, and often misused. So in this episode, I'm walking you through exactly what peptides are, how they work, the most popular ones in each category, and both the pros and cons of using them. This is a no-BS, educational breakdown of everything you need to know before exploring peptides as a tool for better health, performance, or aesthetics. I also cover some legal and sourcing realities—because here's the truth: most peptides aren't FDA-approved, and you'll only find them labeled for “research purposes only.” This isn't an endorsement. It's a breakdown to help you make smarter, more informed decisions.   What I Cover in This Episode: What peptides are and how they're different from hormones or steroids Legal disclaimers and how they're commonly sourced Growth hormone peptides: CJC-1295, Ipamorelin, MK-677 Fat loss peptides: AOD 9604 and Tesamorelin Healing peptides: BPC-157 and TB-500 Anti-aging + cognitive peptides: GHK-Cu (Copper peptide), Epitalon, Semax, Selank Mitochondrial optimizer: MOTS-c and why it's a game-changer for metabolic health How to stack peptides and what to avoid Side effects, risks, and what to consider before diving in   Links & References: Biological Activities and Safety of Citrus spp. Essential Oils - Click Here Essential role of TRPC6 channels in G2/M phase transition and development of human glioma - Click Here   Final Take: Peptides can be a powerful tool—but they're not a magic bullet. If you're training hard, eating right, sleeping well, and want to push to the next level, they might offer that extra edge.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog Last time we reviewed why interpreting your lab may lead you to the wrong diagnosis and treatment.  Today we continue our review of each lab panel and why the reference ranges on your lab results may not be the “Healthy Normal Range” that you should compare your results to. Lab reference ranges are established with a one-size-fits-all mentality, ignoring the numerous variables that influence blood results. Have you ever tried on a “one-size-fits-all “ANYTHING? Those clothes may fit 20% of the population but for the rest of us, the garment doesn't fit our width, weight or height! All one-size-fits-all lab reference ranges are much the same.  For example, the standardized “reference ranges” in the US serve as a one-size-fits-all “ideal range” applied to everyone, despite genetic differences, varying latitudes, and the diverse diets that characterize the American multiethnic population. This presents the first problem with using a single range for all people: variations among individuals based on differing genetic needs.  The second issue is that the ranges on the lab report indicate the minimum levels necessary for survival, not necessarily the healthiest blood levels for most individuals. Another example of one size doesn't fit all is the reference range for women's hormones. A range is displayed for cycling women, but there is no healthy range for menopausal women.  Does the range displayed refer to menopausal women with HRT, or menopausal women without HRT to treat their menopausal symptoms? Is the range based on what is healthy, or what is average? We aren't sure. Labs don't ask patients questions that could help interpret lab values. Therefore, they cannot provide a truly diagnostic reference range for any illness. They only consider gender and age, as reference ranges are solely adjusted for these two factors.  A doctor must interpret individual lab results alongside a patient's medical and surgical history, including established diseases, medications, supplements, hormonal treatments, and past lab values. For instance, laboratory companies should offer reference ranges based on whether a patient is menopausal, a woman is undergoing ERT, a man is receiving testosterone, a patient is on thyroid medication, a person is being treated for diabetes, or the diabetic tests are performed to diagnose diabetes.   Some Reference Ranges are Based on comparing results to Misleading formulas The best example of this issue is the Lipid Panel. Doctors use this panel to determine a person's risk for heart attacks caused by atherosclerosis. Most doctors don't know the formula for determining Total Cholesterol. This test doesn't predict heart disease in most patients, as the formula used to arrive at that number is not indicative of the disease. However, doctors have been advised that when   total cholesterol levels are high, a patient should start taking a statin, a drug that reduces blood cholesterol and sometimes lowers the rate of heart attacks in certain individuals, though it is rarely predictive in 50% of the population. The problem with the lipid panel is twofold: the LDL level indicates future atherosclerosis in only about 50% of the population and is not a specific test for future heart disease risk. Total cholesterol is even less predictive of heart disease because it stems from a flawed formula. Doctors interpret a high Total Cholesterol level as an indication that a patient may be at increased risk for heart disease in the future. When I test patients with elevated Total Cholesterol or high levels of LDL using a Cardiac Calcium Scan to measure plaque, only half of them actually produce plaque, and consequently, are not at risk for atherosclerotic heart disease. I believe that the Total Cholesterol number is derived from an inaccurate formula for determining a person's risk of future heart disease. The Total Cholesterol number is calculated using a flawed equation. The equation is as follows:         LDL + 1/5 Triglycerides+ HDL = Total Cholesterol Total Cholesterol = LDL (bad cholesterol) + 1/5 Triglycerides (high risk factor) + HDL (good cholesterol) Let's examine this formula simply like this:   Bad + Bad + Good does not equal Bad. Due to this incorrect formula, thousands, if not millions, of patients have been prescribed statin drugs for a lifetime without justification!  Statins carry risks. The list of side effects is extensive and includes muscle deterioration and statin-associated dementia. Unfortunately, most people who experience statin side effects are women. Women tend to have higher HDL levels than men. Additionally, they typically do not have atherosclerotic plaque until menopause and usually do not develop it after menopause if they undergo estrogen replacement therapy! This gender issue is just one of the problems with laboratory reference ranges that are not adjusted for sex. The total cholesterol values were developed solely from the blood levels of men, who typically have lower HDL levels. Women were excluded from the tests conducted to create this blood panel. For women, I dispel the myth that high total cholesterol predicts heart disease by recommending a Cardiac Calcium Scan to check for plaque. If a woman has no plaque by the age of 50 and is taking estrogen, she is unlikely to develop plaque in the future.  I still test them every 2-3 years to ensure that no metabolic changes have altered their risk, but I don't put much faith in the unreliable cholesterol blood panel. There is another blood test that has deceptive reference ranges: IGF-1 How about the GH-IGF-1 test, the test for Growth Hormone?  IGF-1 is a metabolite of GH that we can measure to determine how much the patient produces.  This hormone aids in healing and replenishing aging cells in patients after their growth is complete.  The healthy normal range with which I was trained, (150-350 MIU), has been changed to an age-adjusted normal that compares a person to others in her age category who had their blood drawn the previous year.  What is wrong with this? Growth hormone (GH) decreases with age and contributes to the declining health people experience as they grow older. Similarly, IGF-1 diminishes with age and illness, which means that the “reference range” essentially reflects that you are “average for the sick individuals who visit Quest to have their IGF-1 levels checked. ” IGF-1 levels can be enhanced through weight loss, testosterone replacement, and an increase in muscle mass. The current reference range does not indicate health or illness; it merely shows whether you fall within the average for your age group. This non-scientific method of determining “health” is widespread in contemporary medicine. By comparing aging individuals to others within the same age group, for hormones that decline with age, based on samples from sick patients who visit a specific lab in the past year, these labs label patients as “healthy” even when they are as ill as other individuals their age who go to that lab! This practice constitutes age discrimination! Regarding hormones, the levels we maintained during our fertile and youthful years correspond to the blood levels indicative of health in all individuals ages. For example: People who check their IGF-1 (Growth Hormone) levels and see a low “52 ng/ml” might feel satisfied that they are within the standard range (50-280 ng/ml). However, they may not realize that this range applies to older, unhealthy individuals, not to healthy young ones (150-350 ng/ml).  This is just one example of the issues that arise when non-medical individuals, who do not monitor these tests regularly, draw conclusions from the numbers.   Some illnesses require more than one blood test for diagnosis If you consider only one of the three tests for diabetes or prediabetes (Fasting Blood Sugar, HbA1c, and Insulin), you cannot self-diagnose as diabetic, prediabetic, insulin resistance or healthy.  Diabetes is a disease that has coincided with the rising number of obese individuals.  Both conditions affect nearly 50% of the American population. Blood tests cannot be interpreted accurately unless a patient has fasted for 12 hours; all three tests should be evaluated. When diagnosing diabetes and insulin resistance, we perform three tests to assess whether a patient has insulin resistance, prediabetes, or diabetes. These tests guide our diagnosis and inform the treatment we provide based on their results. Fasting insulin is a highly misleading test. Over 15 years ago, a significant study was conducted that was believed to change the reference ranges for fasting insulin.  The new range set for normal fasting insulin was less than 10 mIU/ml. By publishing the reference range less than 18 mIU/ml, they miss diagnosing many patients with insulin resistance HBA1C is a test that gives a value of average blood sugar over three months. The results are often used alone to determine prediabetes and diabetes; however, considering all three aspects makes the diagnosis and treatment plan more specific for the patient. FBS (fasting blood sugar) is the third diabetes test. It is generally used as a screening test that prompts the ordering of the other two blood tests; however, some patients exhibit symptoms of diabetes and insulin resistance without having elevated fasting insulin levels. Many medications can raise diabetic test values, causing a patient to seem diabetic when they are actually experiencing a side effect of the drug.  One such medication is Atorvastatin.  The solution is not treating diabetes but rather adjusting the medication.  Hormone tests are especially challenging to interpret, Especially when testing free Testosterone in women Here are the problems with the free Testosterone test itself: Women have extremely low levels of free testosterone and testosterone compared to men. I have been informed by Quest that women's free testosterone levels are not reliable with current methods because they are not always reproducible when a test is conducted twice on the same day. This leads me to believe that hormone levels do not always reflect the actual blood levels of free testosterone and estradiol. The levels of testosterone in women are based on menopausal levels of T. Women have long been thought to not produce testosterone, so the “normal” levels are quite low, and 0 used to be considered normal- until one day I managed to persuade a medical director at Quest to increase it to 0.2! Women's testosterone is influenced by their production of E2 and E1, which inactivate free T. Women vary in how their cells respond to testosterone and estradiol. Receptor sites and their genetic acceptance of hormones can mean that the same blood level of testosterone in both sexes does not produce the same effects in all patients. Some women (and men) are resistant to E2 and T, or to one of the two. This indicates that the hormone-free T level may be optimal for one woman while being ineffective in alleviating any low T symptoms for another. The latter individual is T resistant, and we currently have no means outside of research labs to determine which women are sensitive and which are resistant. This requires that doctors and NPs look beyond typical reference ranges to effectively manage E2 and T replacement for women. Lastly some labs use the total testosterone level through a formula determine the free T. This carries inherent risks of reporting the wrong active level of testosterone. Total and free testosterone blood levels for men, are derived from results of older men, rather than from the blood levels that indicate health and the levels at which men experience no symptoms. This leads men to believe they are normal, even though they are symptomatic, and they can't get treatment. There is no time to discuss the reference ranges for LH, FSH, Estradiol, and Estrone; these topics will be addressed in a future blog. I hope I have encouraged you to review your blood work with your doctor or Nurse Practitioner, and not to act as your own doctor by interpreting your blood tests.

Today, we're talking about a hot topic in the world of fitness and wellness: peptide stacking. Whether you're looking to build lean muscle, burn fat, enhance recovery, or boost cognitive function, peptide stacking could be a game-changer. But, just like anything, it's important to know the ins and outs of how it works and how to “stack” safely. What is Peptide Stacking? So, what is peptide stacking, and how can it benefit you? Let's break it down. At its core, peptide stacking refers to the practice of combining different peptides to maximize their individual effects and synergize their benefits. Keep in mind, there's no "magic" stack that works for everyone. Each stack is chosen based on the person's symptoms or what effect they want to achieve. The concept is pretty similar to stacking supplements or combining different types of training programs. When done right, stacking peptides can enhance muscle growth, accelerate fat loss, improve recovery, and boost cognitive function. But, not all peptides play well together, and some shouldn't be mixed. We'll dive into those potential issues in a bit. First, let's talk about the benefits of stacking. What Are the Potential Benefits of Stacking Peptides? So, what are the benefits of stacking peptides? First off, synergistic effects – when peptides work together, they can boost each other's impact, helping with muscle growth and speeding up recovery time. Then, there's the ability to tackle multiple goals at once. Whether you're focusing on fat loss, building muscle, or even improving brain function, stacking peptides lets you work on a few things at the same time. Lastly, customization is a big perk. You can adjust your stack based on your specific needs and make changes as your body adapts, so you're always on track to reach your goals.   What Are Some Risks of Peptide Stacking? Some peptides shouldn't be mixed, as they can cause negative effects or reduce each other's effectiveness. For example, combining GHRP-6 (stimulates growth hormone) with somatostatin (inhibits growth hormone) would be counterproductive. Also, stacking too many peptides affecting the same pathways could overwhelm your system, leading to side effects like insulin resistance or excessive GH levels.  Popular Peptide Stacks While there are countless peptide therapies and hundreds of possible stack combinations that can offer great benefits, I can't cover them all, but let's dive into some of the most common and effective peptide stacks for different goals. Building Lean Muscle Mass: If you're aiming to pack on lean muscle, a great stack to try is CJC-1295 with DAC + Ipamorelin + BPC-157. This combo helps release growth hormone and boosts muscle recovery. But if you really want to take it up a notch, adding MK-677 to the mix is a game-changer. MK-677 is a growth hormone secretagogue that mimics ghrelin, the hunger hormone, which not only increases growth hormone levels but also helps with muscle growth and fat loss. One of the best things about MK-677 is its ability to stimulate appetite, which is perfect for anyone who's training hard but struggles to eat enough calories and protein. If you have a naturally low appetite, MK-677 can make it much easier to consume the fuel you need for muscle growth and recovery. Fat Loss: For fat loss, MOTS-c + Semaglutide is a great stack. MOTS-c helps with fat metabolism, and Semaglutide helps control appetite, making it easier to stick to a calorie-restricted diet for sustainable fat loss. Another effective stack is CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin + Semaglutide. The CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin combo promotes growth hormone release, which supports fat burning and muscle preservation, while Semaglutide helps control hunger, making fat loss a little easier. If belly fat is a particular concern, consider Tesamorelin + Semaglutide. Tesamorelin boosts growth hormone, especially around the abdominal area, reducing visceral fat (that deep belly fat). This stack is great for targeting stubborn belly fat while still promoting overall fat loss. Recovery & Healing: When it comes to recovery, BPC-157 + TB-500 is an incredible combo. BPC-157 is known as the king of healing peptides. It helps speed up tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and regenerate muscles, ligaments, and tendons. TB-500 works alongside it to promote wound healing and cell regeneration, further reducing inflammation and speeding up recovery from injuries. Together, these peptides help you heal faster and get back to your workouts with less downtime. Cognitive Function: If you're looking to boost your brainpower, Cerebrolysin + Semax is a solid stack. Cerebrolysin enhances brain function by promoting neuroplasticity and stimulating growth factors to protect and regenerate brain cells, improving memory and mental clarity. On the other hand, Semax enhances memory, reduces stress, and improves focus by increasing BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor). A great approach is to use Semax daily for consistent cognitive benefits and Cerebrolysin on alternate days for neuroprotection and brain regeneration. This way, you're supporting your brain health and mental performance consistently. Peptide stacking can be an incredibly powerful tool when used correctly, helping you achieve your fitness, recovery, and cognitive goals faster and more efficiently. However, it's vital to understand the potential risks and make sure you're combining peptides that complement each other rather than counteracting each other's effects. Always be mindful of the peptides you're stacking. Thanks for listening to The Peptide Podcast. If you found this episode helpful, be sure to subscribe and leave a review.

This research explored the potential of Keyfobell Powder (KFB), a novel extract, to mimic the longitudinal bone growth effects of somatropin (human growth hormone) through the upregulation of IGF-1. KFB is composed of a mixture of Astragalus membranaceus water extract, red ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) 30% ethanolic extract, and Cervi Parvum Cornu 50% ethanolic extract, mixed in a ratio of 1:1.1:7.4. The study found that KFB supplementation significantly increased IGF-1 levels, leading to enhanced bone elongation in animal models. This suggests KFB may offer a natural alternative to somatropin, potentially with a reduced risk of side effects. While somatropin is effective for growth promotion, it can be associated with adverse effects. This study proposes that KFB, through its combination of Astragalus, red ginseng, and deer antler extract, could provide similar benefits by naturally stimulating IGF-1 production, thus promoting bone growth. It's crucial to acknowledge that this research was conducted on animal models, and human clinical trials are necessary to confirm these findings and assess the safety and efficacy of KFB as a somatropin alternativeDisclaimers:"This information is for educational purposes only and should not be interpreted as medical advice.""The study discussed was conducted on animal models.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain how two key hormones control metabolism and discuss tools to enhance their levels to improve metabolic health. I discuss the pathways through which the brain and body interact to produce thyroid hormone and growth hormone, and how these hormones influence essential processes like tissue growth and repair, body composition, and energy production. I explain how thyroid hormone levels are influenced by key nutrients, such as iodine, selenium, and L-tyrosine. I also explain how practices such as exercise, sleep, meditation and sauna can offset age-related declines in growth hormone, to optimize overall hormone health and metabolism.

Dr. Keith Baar is a Professor at the University of California, Davis in the Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology. During his Ph.D. studies, his research revealed that mechanical strain on muscle fibers activates the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, a crucial regulator of muscular hypertrophy. Subsequently, he studied the molecular dynamics of skeletal muscle adaptation to endurance training under the guidance of Dr. John Holloszy, a legend in the field of exercise physiology, considered the father of modern exercise biochemistry. Building on all of this experience, he conducted research into tendon health and the potential for engineering ligaments, which could have implications for treatment and recovery from injuries.Sponsors:Cresset prestigious family office for CEOs, founders, and entrepreneurs: https://cressetcapital.com/tim (book a call today)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: https://DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)Shopify global commerce platform, providing tools to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business: https://shopify.com/tim (one-dollar-per-month trial period)*Links to everything discussed: https://tim.blog/2025/02/26/dr-keith-baar/Timestamps:[00:00:00] Start [00:07:12] How I discovered Keith's work through a tweet about tennis elbow and rock climbing.[00:07:54] Emil Abrahamsson's hangboard training protocol.[00:09:20] The fundamental principles of strength training and connective tissue adaptation.[00:10:36] mTOR complex 1 and its role in muscle growth.[00:12:06] Engineered ligaments and the discovery of minimal effective doses for tendon adaptation.[00:13:50] The refractory period between optimal tendon loading sessions.[00:16:42] Rapamycin's effects on muscle hypertrophy.[00:18:49] Protocols for tennis elbow rehabilitation.[00:20:28] Why isometrics work better than eccentrics for tendon healing.[00:22:14] Stress shielding and how load distribution affects tendon healing.[00:29:07] The misconception about eccentric loading for tendon injuries and why velocity matters.[00:29:58] Ideal duration for isometric holds (10-30 seconds) based on injury status.[00:33:50] My elbow issues and current rehab approach.[00:36:02] Overcoming vs. yielding isometrics and optimal loading strategies.[00:47:11] Dr. Barr's movement prescription for my tennis elbow.[00:52:18] Loading timing post-surgery and RICE protocol criticism.[00:56:58] Achilles tendon rehabilitation after surgery.[01:00:18] Critique of orthopedic suturing techniques and recommendation for resorbable sutures.[01:04:02] Multiple position isometrics for tennis elbow rehabilitation.[01:07:26] Collagen synthesis, supplementation, and vitamin C timing.[01:12:59] Critique of BPC-157 and other injectable peptides for tendon healing.[01:18:19] Evaluation of orthobiologics' (PRP, prolotherapy, stem cells) effectiveness.[01:21:37] JAK-STAT inhibitor drugs and their effects on tendon growth.[01:25:35] Drugs that increase risk of tendon ruptures (fluoroquinolones, AT-1 receptor drugs).[01:29:33] How estrogen affects tendon stiffness and injury risk in women.[01:32:48] Testosterone's opposite effects on tendon compared to estrogen.[01:35:31] Protein intake recommendations and timing.[01:40:11] Ketogenic diet effects on mitochondrial biogenesis and longevity.[01:41:57] Comparison of ketogenic diet, low protein diet, and rapamycin for longevity.[01:47:19] Inflammation's role in adaptation and when to reduce it.[01:51:17] Timing of ice baths relative to training for optimal recovery.[01:52:33] Parting thoughts.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today we're diving into how you can maximize protein synthesis and the hormones necessary for muscle building to support your energy, mood, and longevity. It's not about just living longer—it's important to live stronger. There are three important hormones to discuss: cortisol, human growth hormone (HGH), and insulin-like growth factor (IGF). Cortisol is the stress hormone, and while cortisol plays an important role in the body, too much can hurt your muscle-building capabilities. Cortisol also signals your body to prevent new muscle from forming by blocking protein synthesis and tells your body to hold onto fat. If you want to build lean muscle, your body requires adequate levels of testosterone and HGH. An uptake of amino acids makes your body more efficient at repairing and building muscle. That's where HGH comes in—it increases amino acid uptake in the body. HGH is also released during a deep sleep, so if you want to build muscle you need to get a restful sleep. Insulin-like growth factor, or IGF, is HGH's partner in crime. It's released alongside HGH, but only when your stomach is empty. It helps your body burn fat for energy, regulates cellular growth, and supports your nervous system. Poor sleep represses the release of IGF, so a healthy sleep is crucial for meeting your health goals. If you want to elevate testosterone, IGF, and HGH naturally, there are a few things you can do. First, prioritize at least 7-8 hours of high-quality sleep every night. You should also avoid eating large meals before you lay down. When you do eat, be sure to consume enough protein and amino acids.   Oura Ring: https://ouraring.com/product/rings/heritage?utm_medium=iac_raf   Perfect Aminos - https://beautyculturespa.com/product/perfect-amino-strawberry-60-servings/   Katalyst EMS Workout Suit: https://www.katalyst.com/?affiliate=vip&sca_ref=6772577.q02VSTuqNY&utm_source=jessica-christy&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=default   www.beautyculturespa.com @beautyculture.medspa

In this weeks episode, we will have the part two of Dr. Mark Gordon's episode. Dr. Gordon continues to shed light on how hormonal imbalances can exacerbate neuroinflammation, leading to prolonged recovery and chronic symptoms. We explore the importance of testing and optimizing hormones like growth hormone, IGF-1, IGF-BP3, estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, and pregnenolone to support brain health and recovery after traumatic and non traumatic brain injuries (TBI). Additionally, we delve into how environmental toxins and viruses can trigger or worsen neuroinflammation, impacting overall neurological health. Key Discussion Points: 1. Understanding the Role of Hormones in Brain Health - How hormones like growth hormone, IGF-1, and IGF-BP3 are involved in brain repair and neuroprotection. - The connection between estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, and pregnenolone in maintaining cognitive function and mood stability. - Why hormonal imbalances are common after brain injuries and how they contribute to prolonged neuroinflammation. 2. Growth Hormone and Brain Injuries - The role of growth hormone in promoting neurogenesis and repairing neural tissues. - How low levels of growth hormone can impede recovery from TBI and other brain injuries. - Dr. Gordon's approach to assessing and optimizing growth hormone levels for brain health. 3. IGF-1 and IGF-BP3: Key Players in Neuroprotection - How IGF-1 supports brain cell survival and reduces inflammation. - The significance of IGF-BP3 in regulating IGF-1 activity and its therapeutic potential in TBI. - Strategies for boosting IGF-1 levels naturally and through medical intervention. 4. The Impact of Sex Hormones on Brain Function - Estrogen's neuroprotective effects and its role in reducing neuroinflammation. - Testosterone's influence on brain health, cognition, and emotional regulation. - The benefits of DHEA and pregnenolone in supporting adrenal function and overall hormonal balance. 5. Environmental Toxins, Viruses, and Neuroinflammation - How exposure to environmental toxins can trigger or exacerbate neuroinflammation. - The role of chronic viral infections in contributing to ongoing brain inflammation and hormonal dysregulation. - Dr. Gordon's insights into detoxification strategies and immune support for reducing neuroinflammation. 6. Testing and Optimizing Hormones for Brain Health - The importance of comprehensive hormonal testing in individuals with TBI or chronic neuroinflammation. - Dr. Gordon's protocol for optimizing hormone levels to support brain recovery and cognitive function. - How to work with healthcare providers to develop a personalized hormone optimization plan.

In this episode, I explain the major categories and types of peptides currently in use for therapeutic purposes. I discuss peptides for improving tissue rejuvenation and repair, promoting longevity, improving muscle growth and fat loss, and boosting mood, vitality, and libido. I explain the biology of how these peptides work and both their potential benefits and risks. I also discuss peptide sourcing, dosages, cycling, routes of administration, and how peptides work in combination.  This episode will help you better understand the rapidly expanding landscape of peptide therapeutics and how to evaluate if specific peptides might be advantageous towards achieving your physical or mental health goals.
