Episode notes

In this episode, i’m pulling back the curtain on the peptide world—what they are, why they’re being called the future of medicine, and how i’m using them in my own healing journey. As you all know, I am not a doctor nor am I an expert!! I am simply sharing my experiences with you, what I’ve learned, and reporting back as your favorite human guinea pig.

Where I get my peptides (& where you can too): elliemd.com/thebalancedblonde (then you get to join my private WhatsApp group!)

We Talk About:

The difference between peptides and traditional supplements or medications
The differences between peptides (natural!) and Ozempic (biggest question EVER EVER)
Why this is FINALLY working for me as opposed to everything else I’ve tried
The science behind my personal protocol (BPC-157, Thymosin Alpha-1, Tirzepatide)
Why micro-dosing peptides are showing so much promise for chronic illness, recovery, and longevity
How to choose peptides based on your goals and work with your body instead of against it
What the research says vs. what’s just hype (plus some science because I know there are hatersssss who are confused & want the juice)
If you’ve been hearing the buzz about peptides but aren’t sure where to start — or if you’re curious how they might fit into a holistic, root-cause approach to health — this episode is for you.
SO MUCH MORE!
