Episode Synopsis

Peptides are one of the hottest and most misunderstood tools in longevity medicine. They promise faster recovery, better performance, and even slower aging. But what are they really doing in the body, and how safe are they? Please visit my website to get more information: http://beyondtomorrowpodcast.com/In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Neil Paulvin, an anti-aging and regenerative physician who works with elite athletes and high-performance entrepreneurs, and Dr. Jenna Burton, the medical director at ZOIME, to cut through the hype and reveal what you really need to know.We explore exactly what peptides are, how they work, and where they fit in the “longevity pyramid.” You’ll learn the difference between regulated and unregulated sources, why sourcing and dosing matter, and how to spot red flags when buying peptides. The doctors share their go-to compounds like BPC-157 and Moxie, their thoughts on stacking, cycling, and personalising protocols, and why peptides should support - not replace - lifestyle foundations.We also unpack lessons from the recent RAADFest safety incident, discuss the growing need for regulation, and look ahead to how peptide use might evolve by 2030. Whether you’re curious about anti-inflammatory effects, recovery, brain health, or long-term disease prevention, this conversation offers a clear, practical roadmap to starting your peptide journey safely and effectively.📌 Expect to learn:What peptides are and how they interact with the bodyWhen they’re most effective - and when they’re just hypeThe difference between regulated and unregulated peptidesThe truth about safety concerns after RAADFestHow to identify reputable sources and avoid dangerous productsStacking, cycling, and tailoring peptides to your goalsThe doctors’ favourite peptides and whyWhere peptide therapy could be by 2030⏱ Timestamps:00:00 – What peptides are & why they matter02:07 – Peptides in the longevity pyramid04:27 – Safety lessons from RAADFest09:10 – Regulated vs unregulated peptides12:44 – Red flags & sourcing tips15:30 – Favourite peptides & their uses21:34 – Stacking & cycling protocols27:12 – Regulation, education & the future of peptides41:05 – Who should consider peptide therapy46:02 – Parting advice for starting your peptide journey🎙 Hosted by Julian Issa📸 Instagram: @thebeyondtomorrowpodcast🌐 Website: www.beyondtomorrowpodcast.com📩 Email: [email protected]🎧 Subscribe on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube for more stories from the edge of what’s possible.
