Without a strong foundation, high-level interventions just won't stick. 🔹 Peptides as Strategic Support, Not a Cure-All Used wisely, peptides can accelerate healing and provide "quick wins" when someone's struggling to get traction—but they should be paired with foundational changes, not used as shortcuts. 🔹 Test, Observe, Adapt Data from wearables like the Oura Ring and continuous glucose monitors can reveal trends, but it's the long-term patterns—not single-night stats—that matter.
