Peptides 101: Evaluating Hype, Risk, and Reward
About this episode
The episode explores the science, safety, and efficacy of peptides in health and performance.
Peptides! They're everywhere in the health and performance world (and, increasingly, outside of it, too). So... what is a peptide? Are they safe? Should you be taking them? We're going to get into all of that today, breaking down what the science says (and doesn't say) about the efficacy and safety of peptides, go over a "three-legged-stool" framework that will help you evaluate novel supplements or treatments in the increasingly wild world of wellness, and give you a better understanding of how to think through the trade-offs involved in incorporating new tools into your own health and performance routine. - Get a free LMNT drink mix pack with any purchase: drinkLMNT.com/Clay - Get free shipping and 365-day returns when you shop at quince.com/excellence - Subscribe to The Growth Equation newsletter - Join The Growth Equation Academy - If you are enjoying "excellence, actually," do us a huge favor: text your favorite episode to three people so they can enjoy it, too.
