About this episode

Kenny Santucci interviews Ashley Madsen about peptides, hormones, and strategies for enhancing longevity and healthspan.

This week on the Strong New York Podcast, Kenny sits down with Ashley Madsen, a double board-certified clinician and expert in functional medicine, longevity, and performance optimization. Trained at Stanford, the Institute for Functional Medicine, and the American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine, Ashley specializes in helping people extend their healthspan through personalized, science-backed care. They unpack peptides and GLP-1s—what works, what’s risky, and why personalization and proper sourcing matter—along with the importance of addressing foundational health first. The conversation also explores obesity, long-term GLP-1 use, and the balance between lifespan and healthspan. Ashley also shares her integrative approach to sexual wellness, breaking down libido, hormones, and cardiovascular health as key drivers of overall vitality.
