Episode notes
Significance of Frailty in Aging
- Frailty is a critical aging issue linked to loss of muscle mass, cognitive decline, and bone density.
- Preventing frailty improves quality of life and reduces risks of severe health events like falls and fractures.
Nine Hallmarks of Aging
- The nine hallmarks of aging encompass mitochondrial dysfunction, telomere attrition, and cellular senescence.
- Peptides can effectively target many of these biological aging mechanisms to enhance longevity.
Optimize Growth Hormone Pathway
- Use growth hormone releasing peptides like CJC-1295 and ipamorelin together for synergistic anti-aging effects.
- Cycling these peptides helps hit the optimal balance without overstimulating the growth hormone pathway.
