The FDA doesn't want you to know about these compounds.

Huberman's newest guest just unveiled the truth about the peptide revolution.

The uncensored guide to peptides for superhuman biohacking: Image
1. BPC-157 is generating buzz for good reason.

It shows potential for reducing inflammation and accelerating tendon and ligament healing.

Whether injected or taken orally, it seems to pack a punch even from localized application. Image
2. Ipamorelin and tesamorelin might be your new go-to for better sleep and faster recovery.

These compounds can:

• Boost natural growth hormone production
• Potentially improve sleep quality
• Accelerate exercise recovery

Pro tip: take them before bed for maximum effect. Image
3. GLP-1 Agonists like Ozempic and other compounds are weight loss darlings, but you have to be cautious.

You risk muscle loss, so experts recommend combining them with resistance training and keeping protein intake high.

Start w/ microdoses to minimize side effects. Image
4. Recent changes in FDA regulations have shaken up the peptide landscape.

Some options through compounding pharmacies are vanishing, so it's worth researching alternatives or FDA-approved options that might offer similar benefits.

Gotta stay informed.
5. Combining peptides might supercharge your results.

For instance, pairing BPC-157 with growth hormone secretagogues could be a recovery dream team.

Always get your doctor's green light before mixing, though.
6. Peptides vs. Direct Hormone Manipulation

Understand the nuance here.

Peptides often nudge natural hormone production, potentially offering a more balanced approach with fewer side effects than direct hormone replacement. Image
7. Thymosin Alpha-1 peptide shows promise for immune modulation but has been banned for compounding.

It might help with both overactive and underactive immune systems.

Keep an eye out for potential alternatives or future availability. Image
8. PT-141: FDA-Approved for Libido Enhancement

PT-141 works for both men and women, but there's potential side effects like nausea and skin changes.

Could be a bedroom game-changer lol. Image
9. While not a peptide, methylene blue is often used alongside them for cognitive enhancement and mitochondrial support.

Start with low doses (around 10mg).

Also don't freak out if your pee turns blue-green. Image
Image
Of course, none of this is medical advice.

A knowledgeable physician is your best ally in the peptide game.

They'll:

• Align peptide choices with your health goals
• Ensure safe usage
• Steer you clear of sketchy sources

Start low and go slow, safety first, etc etc.

The $73M German startup that's making Zapier sweat:

• Built by ONE developer working nights and weekends
• Now has 400+ integrations
• Primed to capture upside in the AI agentic economy

How n8n became Europe's answer to America's automation monopoly: 🧵 Image
Image
In 2019, developer Jan Oberhauser faced a common problem:

Zapier was too limited and expensive. Custom coding was too time-consuming.

So he built n8n in his Berlin apartment after work hours.

Jan created the first version of n8n ("n-eight-n") during evenings and weekends.
When he shared it on Hacker News, users immediately recognized its advantages:

• Visual workflows anyone could understand
• Powerful customization when needed
• Open-source foundation
• Self-hostable with no arbitrary limits

By 2021? Image

In 2015, British bankers laughed in his face:

"Zero fees? You'll be bankrupt in months."

Today, Revolut processes £1 TRILLION in transactions and makes £1 BILLION in profit.

How Nikolay Storonsky built Europe's most valuable fintech by breaking every rule in banking 🧵: Image
2015: Russian-born Nikolay Storonsky was frustrated by crazy fees when exchanging currencies during business trips.

His solution? Build it himself.

While traditional banks were charging 5% hidden fees on foreign exchanges, Revolut offered a shocking alternative: Image
Zero fees. Real exchange rates. No bullshit.

The banking establishment laughed.

"You can't make money that way," they said.

But Nikolay Storonsky wasn't building another bank.

Because Revolut was solving real pain points that banks had ignored for decades:

The British Royal Navy's new secret weapon:

AI-powered drones that hunt Russian submarines without being detected.

Built by Germany's Helsing, these silent trackers finally illuminate what's hiding in the ocean's depths.

Here's why underwater warfare will never be the same 🧵: Image
Founded in 2021 by 3 founders in Munich, Helsing has become Europe's most valuable defense-tech in just 3 years.

Their mission?

Transform warfare with AI that turns chaos into crystal-clear battlefield awareness.

But their latest breakthrough isn't in the air or on land... Image
It's happening deep beneath the waves.

You see, for decades, tracking Russian submarines has been nearly impossible:

• They're incredibly quiet
• Sound distorts underwater
• Human sonar operators need 5+ years of training
• Covering vast oceans required massive resources Image

Last night, I went to a techno-optimist meetup at a hacker house in Berlin.

Europe's tech scene is coming ALIVE again.

15 observations I wrote from the evening 🧵: Image
Image
Something fundamentally shifted in the last 5-6 months

This was very obvious to everyone: the "vibe shift" is felt throughout the ecosystem.

US politics are uniting Europeans more than ever.

Like a shared sense of "it's our time to show we can do shit on our own again."
Ideas like EU Inc have a big mental impact

Even though nothing is enacted yet, concepts like the EU Inc are creating a unifying goal for the ecosystem.

I've been saying steps like this have enormous psychological impact.

Surprisingly, most people were familiar with EU Inc.

Europe's tax collectors are harming our economic future.

But 1 fiscal policy change could reverse the damage.

It'd cost almost nothing long-term.
And it'd create massive economic returns.

Here's the radical tax policy every European nation should copy 🧵: Image
First, let's face the brutal reality:

• US startups raised $162.7B in 2024
• EU startups? Just $39.5B
• European founders flee to Silicon Valley daily
• Tech talent exodus accelerating

But it's not about culture or talent - it's about structural barriers. Image
When a EU startup launches, they face immediate taxation that drains critical resources during their most vulnerable phase.

Think what startups need most:

• Cash to develop products
• Resources to hire talent
• Runway to iterate and improve
• Capital to scale operations

If you're a scientist in America right now, Europe just made you an offer you can't refuse:

€500M.
7-year guaranteed funding.
Unprecedented academic freedom.

Right as Trump slashes US research funding.

The shocking EU strategy that aims to poach America's brightest 🧵: Image
Yesterday at Sorbonne University in Paris, Emmanuel Macron & Ursula von der Leyen announced:

• €500M specifically targeting American scientists
• Higher grants + longer contracts for researchers
• Fast-tracked immigration for top talent

The message was crystal clear:
"We call on researchers worldwide to unite and join us … If you love freedom, come and help us stay free."

This isn't just another boring EU initiative.

It's a calculated strike at America's scientific dominance at the PERFECT moment.

But why now?
