The *NEW* Peptide Stack for Brain, Longevity & Performance | Dean Henry

The *NEW* Peptide Stack for Brain, Longevity & Performance | Dean Henry

Dean Henry returns to break down the peptide landscape after FDA changes, share his personal stack, and explain why biological individuality matters more than cookie-cutter protocols. Learn why insulin has been around for 100 years as a peptide, but people don't realise the connection, how KPV and BPC work orally for gut health because they don't need to break through the bloodstream, and why stacking 18 peptides simultaneously makes no sense. This covers Mike's first injection experience and why he wants to try retatrutide on micro-dosing, how BPC makes receptors more sensitive when stacked, why most people think retatrutide isn't working because they're still hungry instead of realising they get fuller quicker, and Dean's current five-peptide stack for body composition while travelling. 00:00 Introduction 01:03 Introduction to Dean Henry and peptide discussion 07:26 Basics of what peptides are 18:53 Immediate effects of peptides versus supplements 23:31 Starting peptide recommendations and initial effects 28:24 Personal experiences and favourite peptides 35:29 Forms of peptides: injectables, pills, and sprays 41:17 Who should consider peptides and how to start 55:01 Common peptides and their potential side effects 1:11:22 Peptides specific to women 1:14:51 Can peptides help with specific health issues? 1:19:08 Future of peptides and upcoming innovations DISCLAIMER Nothing shared on this podcast is a substitute for professional medical guidance.

The "Health" Advice Slowly Destroying Your Hormones, Youth & Longevity | Valter Longo

Dr Valter Longo is a longevity researcher who developed the fasting-mimicking diet, and this conversation reveals why 16-hour fasting increases mortality risk, how true autophagy takes five full days to activate, and why high protein might be accelerating ageing.
