Any compounds discussed may be intended for research purposes only. Use at your own risk. JD Denham and William T. Haas sit down for a focused all-R episode covering the most common questions they get about "R". From whether you actually need to stop between cycles, to building a stack from scratch as a brand new female, to using R with breast cancer history, to whether Cagrilintide is worth bridging with over the holidays. Plus Dr. Mike Farber, creator of FLGR 242 and Klotho, is coming on the podcast next week and JD has been running FLGR long enough to say it is giving gear a serious run for its money. 🔬 Topics Covered • Do your R receptors actually burn out and do you need to cycle off?• The best way to time your R doses around the weekend when cravings hit hardest Building a peptide stack from absolute zero as a 33-year-old female athlete• Why taking too many peptides at once is costing you money and answers• Hormone breast cancer history on R: what is safe and what is not• Why fatigue on R almost always comes down to one thing nobody wants to hear• AOD vs Tesamorelin vs HGH for a 45-year-old male trying to lose his last 20 pounds• Does 5-Amino-1-MQ actually block NAD or is that completely backwards?• The cognitive and fat burning stack for a 40-year-old Marine on TRT and R• FLGR 242 is the first peptide JD says is genuinely giving gear a run for its moneyChapters:00:00 – Cold Open: Should You Stop "R"?01:00 – Intro01:09 – Welcome Back & VIP Zoom Call Updates03:44 – Website, Trusted Sources & Coaching Updates04:59 – Upcoming Guest: Dr. Mike Farber (FLGR-242 & Clotho)08:21 – Q&A: Bridging Between "R" Cycles With Cagrilintide15:24 – Q&A: Building a Peptide Stack as a Beginner28:22 – Q&A: Low Energy on Reta After Breast Cancer38:22 – Q&A: AOD-9604 & CJC After Major Weight Loss46:18 – Q&A: Do 5-Amino-1MQ & NAD+ Conflict?51:41 – Outro & Next Episode Preview52:46 – "R" Takeaways RecapBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/peptide-of-the-week-weight-loss-health-wellness--7447107/support. | 54m 13s | ||||||

The content in this video is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Any compounds discussed may be intended for research purposes only. Use at your own risk.Welcome back, warriors! In this episode of Peptide of the Week, JD Denham and William T. Haas get back to basics with two compounds that belong in almost everyone's stack. Epithalon for longevity, sleep, and cellular aging. Glutathione for detox, liver protection, and immune support. Simple, powerful, and underutilized.Chapters:00:00 – Intro00:09 – Show Updates & Shirt Talk02:15 – Heading to the Olympia02:58 – Behind the Scenes of Bodybuilding Prep05:26 – JD's Mold-Related Cough Diagnosis07:50 – New Podcast Format & Upcoming Compounds10:01 – School & Coaching Program Updates10:41 – Carnivore vs. Macros: Finding What Works13:33 – Epitalon: Origins in Russian Bioregulator Science15:03 – Why Most Peptides Lack FDA Clinical Trials17:20 – Big Pharma's Incentives & Hidden Cures21:53 – Epitalon: Longevity, Immune Support & Sleep27:53 – What to Stack With & Avoid on Epitalon32:13 – Glutathione: Why Everyone Should Take It34:57 – Delivery Methods & Global Uses39:49 – Dosing Protocols: Epitalon & Glutathione MathWe cover:🧬 What is Epithalon?– A four amino acid synthetic peptide made of alanine, glutamate, aspartate, and glycine– One of Dr. Khavinson's Soviet bioregulators developed in the 1970s military research program– Works directly on the pineal gland, the pea-sized gland in your brain that regulates sleep and hormones– In 2026, an FDA advisory committee voted 7 to 4 to recommend adding it to the approved compound list (advisory only, not yet policy)– Cannot be patented because it is a naturally occurring compound, so there is no financial incentive for big pharma to fund large trials🔬 What Epithalon does– Telomere lengthening: Dr. Khavinson's studies showed it extends the telomere caps on your chromosomes, theoretically slowing cellular aging. Animal models showed extended lifespan– Sleep and circadian rhythm reset: deepens sleep, reduces nighttime waking, helps reset disrupted sleep cycles. One of the top reasons people run it– Immune resilience: lowers free radical damage systemically, especially helpful for overtrained athletes and chronically stressed people⚠️ What to avoid with Epithalon– Alcohol– High-dose melatonin (it can replace melatonin, do not stack them)– Extra sedatives while running it for sleep– Theoretical caution with active cancer due to pineal gland's role in cell regulation (not proven, just noted)– Not WADA banned but classified as a non-approved substance for tested athletes🛡️ What is Glutathione?– Discovered in 1888, actively used in Italy to treat Parkinson's after independent human trials– Your body's master antioxidant and the most important detox compound available– Scavenges free radicals, recycles vitamins C and E so they keep working, and escorts toxins out of the body🔬 What Glutathione actually does– Liver detox and protection: number one clinical use in Western medicine, especially post-alcohol and for fatty liver support– Parkinson's and neuroprotection: proven in human trials to protect nerves from chemotherapy damage– Immune support and long COVID recovery: being used in post-viral fatigue and long COVID protocols– Skin lightening: the number one global use.

The content in this video is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Any compounds discussed may be intended for research purposes only. Use at your own risk.Welcome back, warriors! In this week's Peptide Q&A, JD Denham and William T. Haas are live from South Carolina touring a 503A/503B FDA-approved compounding facility. They cover how to vet a peptide source beyond the COA, HGH as a long-term play, seborrheic dermatitis triggered by HGH, SIBO and Candida gut protocols, peptides for eye health, and longevity tools for women over 60.Chapters:00:00 – Intro00:10 – Welcome Back & South Carolina Trip00:27 – Visiting a 503A/503B Lab02:01 – Why They Take These Trips & Dealing With Online Hate05:28 – Skool Platform & Coaching Program Updates09:42 – New Format: Feedback From Listeners10:34 – Recap: The Elkins Cattle Co Episode14:08 – Q&A: Tracking a COA to a Specific Bottle19:40 – Q&A: HGH vs. TESA/IPA Secretagogues25:36 – Q&A: Statin/Blood Pressure Meds & SS-31 for Eye Health29:02 – Q&A: HGH Causing Seborrheic Dermatitis33:59 – Q&A: Fixing SIBO & Candida39:06 – Q&A: How Much Visceral Fat Is Normal?44:05 – Q&A: Reducing Inflammation & Blood Pressure Naturally48:47 – Q&A: BAM-15 & SLU-PP-332 Coupling Explained1:01:12 – Q&A: CJC/Ipa Reactions & the Ideal Longevity StackWe cover:• Can You Trust a COA Is From the Right Batch?: Why there's no perfect answer, why cost and transparency are the best vetting tools, and why good companies test the same batch multiple times• HGH vs Tesamorelin —The Long Game: Why Tesamorelin still retains its visceral fat-burning properties even alongside HGH, why secretagogues are redundant on HGH, and why five-plus years is the real timeline• HGH Causing Seborrheic Dermatitis: Why elevated IGF-1 increases sebaceous gland activity, why switching to a secretagog may reduce but not eliminate the issue, and when dropping HGH altogether is the right call• SIBO and Candida Protocol: Why oral BPC and KPV are the foundation, the role of fasting and carnivore in starving off gut overgrowth, and why Dr. Scott and holistic practitioners are the right people to guide this• Peptides for Eye Health After Statin Damage: Why SS-31 is the most promising compound with clinical trials behind it, and why BPC, TB-500, Epithalon, and Visalutin are also worth researching• 8% Body Fat Firefighter Overtraining: Why one or two rest days accelerate results, why sleep and stress management outrank adding compounds, and why fasting is JD's top lean-out tool for men• Longevity Stack for Women Over 60: Why HGH is the unanimous pick for bone density and belly fat, why SS-31 before MOTS-C is non-negotiable, and why creatine is the most underrated supplement for older women• Klotho Peptide — Early Impressions: Why JD and Will are both running it now and will report back once they have firsthand experience to shareYou're a warrior.

| 9/21/26 | Peptide of the Week: What's Really in Your Beef With Tim Elkins | Medical Disclaimer: We are not doctors. The content in this video is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Any compounds discussed may be intended for research purposes only. Use at your own risk.Welcome back, warriors! In this episode of Peptide of the Week, JD Denham and William T. Haas sit down with Tim Elkins, JD's first mentor in business and now owner of Elkins Cattle Co., one of Texas's largest cattle operations spanning 40 to 50 thousand acres. This one is not about peptides. It is about what is actually in your food and why it matters just as much.Chapters:00:00 – Intro00:13 – Meeting Tim Elkins01:36 – Tim's Background: Finance to Cattle Ranching07:53 – The Time Management Lesson That Changed JD's Career10:35 – Cattle Ranch to Table: How the Industry Really Works12:23 – The "Big Four" Monopoly Explained14:24 – Why Elkins Cattle Co Refuses to Cut Corners18:46 – The Truth About Foreign Beef21:00 – Why Ribeye Prices Doubled & Who Profits25:03 – Grocery Store Ground Beef: What's Really In It29:44 – What's Legal But Should Shock You34:29 – How to Tell a Cheated Steak From a Real One39:10 – The Truth About "Wagyu" Labels at Costco42:47 – Grass-Fed vs. Grain-Finished Explained47:26 – Inside a Feedlot: How They Track Every Animal54:08 – How Buying Local Can Starve Out the Big Four & OutroWe cover:🐄 How beef actually gets to your table– 90% of American beef passes through just four companies: JBS, Cargill, Tyson, and National Beef– These four have a stranglehold monopoly on the entire industry and prioritize speed and profit over quality– 70% of beef consumed in America is foreign beef. Most people have no idea– Animals are often slaughtered at under 12 months old or as old non-producing cows to cut costs– Horse meat in fast food chains: confirmed. And it is more widespread than just Taco Bell🚫 What store-bought beef actually contains– Hormones, antibiotics, mRNA vaccines, and artificial additives are standard practice in commercial beef production– Wagyu labeling loophole: a product only needs 0.001% wagyu genetics to legally use the wagyu label. That ribeye at Costco is not what you think it is– "Grass-fed" on a label means almost nothing. Every cow has eaten at least one piece of grass. The label has no meaningful standard– Pink slime in ground beef is real and it comes from reputable-looking places, not just fast food– Veal in most restaurants is almost certainly a calf that died in transit or in a pen, not one that was intentionally raised for that purpose🥩 What Elkins Cattle Co. does differently– Zero hormones, zero antibiotics, zero mRNA vaccines, zero shortcuts– All animals are 30 months old at slaughter, not 12 months– 40 to 50 thousand acres across Texas, nearly 9,000 head of cattle– Consumer direct: order by Monday, ships frozen to your door by Tuesday– Retina scanning technology tags every animal daily, tracking food intake, water, health markers, and time spent laying down. Red X spray marks any animal that needs attention that morning– Grass-fed AND grass-finished: fed four specific grasses including coastal Bermuda, Klein, native grasses, and winter oats to mimic the intramuscular fat quality of grain-finished beef without any GMO grain inputs– Animal welfare is non-negotiable: a stressed, unhappy cow does not gain weight properly and the difference shows up in the meatFollow us on social media:JD's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jddenhamofficial/Will's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/williamthaas/Follow Tim Elkins:Website: https://www.elkinscattleco.comX (Twitter): https://www.x.com/elkinscattlecoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/elkinscattleco/Join The Community: https://www.skool.com/peptideoftheweekcommunitySubscribe to our Newsletter: https://potwnewsletter.beehiiv.com/Coaching Website: https://www.warrior-makerscoaching.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/peptide-of-the-week-weight-loss-health-wellness--7447107/support. | 57m 42s | ||||||

| 9/14/26 | Peptide of the Week: Gut Health Deep Dive With Liz Roman, The Poop Queen | Medical Disclaimer: We are not doctors. The content in this video is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Any compounds discussed may be intended for research purposes only. Use at your own risk.Welcome back, warriors! In this episode of Peptide of the Week, JD Denham and William T. Haas sit down with Liz Roman, owner of FitMom Functional Health, certified functional practitioner, co-host of The Health Revival Show, and the self-proclaimed (and trademarked) Poop Queen. If your gut is jacked, this episode is for you.Chapters:00:00 – Intro & Meeting Liz "The Poop Queen"01:51 – Why Everyone's Gut Is Struggling Today07:09 – The Foundation: Diet, Hormones & Stress Come First08:59 – JD's Gut Story & Where to Start Healing13:13 – Stomach Acid: The Missing Domino15:39 – Order of Operations: Parasites, Detox & Ivermectin19:40 – Rapid Fire: What Should Poop Look Like?21:28 – Prebiotics vs. Probiotics vs. Postbiotics Explained26:39 – Junk Products & Peptide Scams to Avoid30:59 – Daily Habits: Eating & Bathroom Hygiene35:27 – Fasting & Protein Timing for Women40:11 – Decoding Chronic Bloating43:10 – Liz's Personal Health Journey46:57 – SIBO, Candida & the Real Role of Antibiotics52:07 – Liz's Favorite Peptides & Daily Supplement StackWe cover:🦠 Why everyone's gut is a mess– Chronic stress, poor diet, COVID spike proteins, nutritional deficiencies, and environmental toxins are all converging at once– Spike proteins attach to mast cell receptors throughout the gut microbiome and cardiovascular system, shifting how the immune system behaves– Magnesium, B vitamins, and vitamin D deficiencies accelerated post-2020 and are still largely unaddressed– You will never out-supplement, out-peptide, or out-hormone a bad diet and poor stress management. Period.🧬 The north-to-south digestion process– Stomach acid is the first domino. When it is low (from stress, aging, NSAIDs, medications, or past substance use), nothing downstream works properly– Stomach acid must be robust enough to emulsify protein into amino acids AND kill incoming parasites, pathogens, viruses, and bacteria– Always take betaine HCL in capsule form, never powder, the capsule protects it from being neutralized before it reaches the stomach– Low stomach acid fails to signal the pancreas, which then fails to release digestive enzymes, which then fails to signal the liver and gallbladder to release bile🫐 Bile is the missing link nobody talks about– Bile is your internal built-in antimicrobial, circulating through the small intestine 15 to 17 times per meal– It is your body's natural defense against SIBO. When bile flow is compromised, bacteria overgrow where they should not be– The liver-gut axis is real, anatomically proven, and almost entirely ignored by conventional medicine– Supporting bile flow with things like TUDCA is essential, especially on GLP-1s and high-fat diets🦠 SIBO, Candida, parasites, and the carnivore trap– Restrictive diets like carnivore can clear symptoms short term but also deprive gut bacteria of the fibers, polyphenols, and prebiotics they need to thrive– Parasite cleanses need to be a minimum of 45 to 60 days, not 7-day moon cycles. The parasite lifecycle is 45 to 60 days from egg to adult– Antibiotics take 6 months to 2 years to recover from after just one round. If you must take them, support the gut simultaneously📺 Subscribe for more no-fluff peptide education every week.Follow us on social media:JD's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jddenhamofficial/Will's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/williamthaas/Follow Liz Roman:Website: https://fitmom.coFree Constipation Care Guide: https://fitmom.co/CCGInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepoopqueen/Podcast: The Health Revival ShowJoin The Community: https://www.skool.com/peptideoftheweekcommunityCoaching Website: https://www.warrior-makerscoaching.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/peptide-of-the-week-weight-loss-health-wellness--7447107/support. | 57m 56s | ||||||

The content in this video is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Any compounds discussed may be intended for research purposes only. Use at your own risk.Welcome back, warriors! In this episode of Peptide of the Week, JD Denham is joined by Nora Adam (Wholesale Director at Forge Bio Lab) and Tiffany Marie Davis nutrition practitioner, peptide integration specialist, and retired IFBB Pro for a deep dive into gut health, hormone optimization, functional testing, and why most people are being dismissed by the very system that's supposed to help them.Chapters:00:00 – Intro & Guest Introductions01:18 – Tiffany's Fertility Story & Being Dismissed by Doctors04:43 – Becoming a Nutrition Practitioner06:08 – Functional Testing vs Standard Labs09:34 – Vaccine Injury Case & Medical Gaslighting17:22 – Why Doctors Dismiss Patients19:30 – The Gut-Brain Connection20:14 – Top 3 Root Causes: Trauma, Food, Eating Disorders27:25 – The Anti-Inflammatory Diet33:19 – How Peptides Actually Work36:33 – GLP-1s: Benefits, Risks & Misuse39:45 – Minerals, Copper & GLP-1 Side Effects44:52 – Fasting & Autophagy: Women vs Men54:49 – Where to Start If You Feel Unwell1:02:46 – Outro & Where to Find Tiffany & NoraWe cover:🦋 Tiffany's story– Competing as an IFBB Pro destroyed her hormones by age 26 hair loss, amenorrhea, miscarriage, dismissed by every doctor she saw– Doctors threw metformin, birth control, and dismissals at her none addressed the root cause– A doctor refused to prescribe T3 because she assumed Tiffany wanted it for weight loss she then miscarried– Went back to school, earned 13 certifications in nutrition, became a board-registered nutrition practitioner– Now works entirely in functional testing and root cause healing🩺 What functional testing actually reveals– Standard labs are a snapshot they don't tell you WHY– Most doctors only run one thyroid marker there are eight– Elevated LDL on keto, carnivore, or RETA is expected your doctor probably doesn't know that– APOB + hs-CRP are far better cardiovascular risk markers rarely tested– Functional tests Tiffany runs: gut zoomer, hormone zoomer, organic acids test, heavy metals, mycotoxins, mineral panel, celiac, food sensitivities🔥 The three root causes she sees most– Trauma: held in organs (gallbladder = resentment/anger), disrupts the gut-brain axis, spikes cortisol, blocks proper hormone signaling– Food: our food supply is not the same as 30 years ago — seed oils, dyes, GMO crops, herbicide-sprayed produce, and modified grains are destroying gut linings– Eating disorders: nutrient deficiencies and intestinal abuse from restriction, bingeing, or purging cause cascading hormone and gut dysfunction💊 GLPs — the missing piece nobody talks about– Women losing hair and nails on GLP-1s are malnourished gastric emptying slows nutrient absorption– Must pair with: magnesium, electrolytes, copper mineral, digestive enzymes, liver support (TUDCA + ergothioneine)– Copper deficiency is extremely common on GLP-1s and almost never tested– GLP-1s are a tool not a lifestyle.
