Why are peptides one of the most searched health topics online right now? Today, Awais Spall, founder of Integrative Oasis, joins me to explain which peptides are worth knowing about. He shares how peptides pulled him out of chronic pain after high school.
He also describes how Thymosin alpha-1 had him wondering overnight whether he'd even been sick. We cover BPC-157 for repair, and GLP-1s for blood sugar and fatty liver. We also talk about epitalon and bioregulators for longevity, and KPV for histamine and food sensitivities.
You'll learn which peptides support focus and ADHD, and why sermorelin is a safer choice than straight growth hormone. Awais also explains how to get started without getting lost in the internet's "bro science." If you've been curious about peptides, this is a great place to begin.
"Peptides are short chains of amino acids. They're essentially small fragments of proteins that act as signaling molecules in your body. There are thousands of peptides working in your body right now." ~ Awais Spall
