Ep. 256 What’s Worth It? Peptides, Water Filters, Electrolytes Q+A
In this episode of Alpha Health and Wellness Radio, I dive into one of the most requested topics lately — peptides. What they are, how they work, who they’re for, and where the conversation is getting overhyped.
I break down the difference between regenerative support and biohacking culture, and where peptides may have a role in tissue repair, performance, longevity, and metabolic health — when used appropriately and under guidance.
Then we shift into a live Q&A where I answer your questions on some of my favorite wellness topics.
