Wellness + Wisdom Podcast Dr. Craig Koniver | Peptide Masterclass: The Practical, Physical + Spiritual Guide For All You Need To Know About Peptides To THRIVE
Why are peptides the most effective health + wellness tool?
Dr. Craig Koniver, Performance Medicine Expert, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 642, to share why he leverages the power of peptides to help his patients achieve long-term health and well-being, and why he encourages people to use tirzepatide to start their weight loss journey.
"Peptides are a way for the body to clean up the wrong kind of energy that keeps us stuck and become efficient. We need help with that because we live under artificial light, we don't breathe properly, and we don't spend time in nature in the sun." - Dr. Craig Koniver

Power Quotes From The Show The Benefits of Peptides"We see amazing results with peptides from people losing weight, getting stronger, thinking more clearly, reducing inflammation, boosting the immune system, helping with skin repair, and much more." - Dr. Craig Koniver
Mounjaro VS Ozempic"The biggest difference is that Mounjaro is a tirzepatide that works on two different receptors while Ozempic is a semiglutide and works on one receptor. And what that translates to for Mounjaro, you get faster weight loss with less side effects. What I like about it is that it's predictable, reliable, and safe. I want for everyone to look, feel, and perform their best." - Dr. Craig Koniver
People Want Peace More Than Happiness"What people strive for most, more so than wanting longevity, more so than wanting happiness is peace. True peace can never be taken away from you. There is no external circumstance, whether you have a disease or lost someone you love, that could take it away." - Dr. Craig Koniver
