If you've been following me for a while, you've probably heard of peptides, but maybe not peptide bioregulators.

Peptide bioregulators - which can be taken orally as a supplement - have been a secret of the anti-aging and longevity world for years, but are just now beginning to hit the mainstream.

Peptide bioregulators are small protein molecules that can activate genes for cellular regeneration, acting as cellular mediators to regulate gene expression and protein synthesis. These molecules were first discovered decades ago during the Cold War when the Russian military exhibited signs of premature aging. In response, the Russian government embarked on a mission to find a solution to maintain the health of its troops and prevent aging. As a result, they discovered peptide bioregulators, which have been shown to have potential benefits for cellular health and regeneration.

My guest on today's podcast, Phil Micans, has extensively studied Khavinson's work and is one of the world's leading experts on anti-aging, peptide bioregulators. Use code BGF15 for 15% off.
