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.

I used to think I was rational.

Then I read Daniel Kahneman's Nobel Prize-winning work on human decision-making.

He routinely asks 8 questions to expose cognitive traps you fall into daily.

Test yourself with these questions (it's the ultimate BS detector for your brain):
Image
Image
Question 1: Am I thinking fast or slow?

Kahneman's not impressed by your lightning-fast decisions.

Why? Because your brain has two systems:

• Fast: Intuitive, emotional, unconscious
• Slow: Analytical, logical, conscious

Guess which one Kahneman trusts for big decisions?
Think about it: You're offered a new job. Exciting, right?

Fast thinking says: "Take it! More money!"
Slow thinking asks: "How does this align with my long-term goals?"

This question is your brake pedal in a world of snap judgments.

Everyone knows about Bryan Johnson's quest for immortality.

But few know about the genius marketing strategy behind it.

Here's how Bryan Johnson turned his controversial self-experiment into a massive $20M/year business: Image
The year is 2020.

Armed with a tech fortune of $500M and an obsession with longevity, Johnson launches "Project Blueprint" - a radical experiment to reverse his biological age.

The price tag? A cool $2 million per year.
Johnson's daily Blueprint routine reads like a sci-fi novel:

• 1,977 calories of precisely measured vegan food
• 60+ supplements
• Red light therapy
• Ultrasounds, MRIs, colonoscopies galore

He even measures the erections he gets while sleeping. Image

I used to think I was resilient.

Then I read Nassim Taleb's paradigm-shifting concept of "antifragility."

He routinely asks 7 questions to help people & organizations thrive on volatility and uncertainty.

Test your personal Antifragility score with these questions:
Image
Image
Question 1: "How does this system respond to volatility?"

Taleb says true strength emerges from chaos, not stability.

Think about it:

• Does stress break your system, or make it stronger?
• Can you turn market turbulence into fuel for growth?
• Are you designed to benefit from disorder?

Most businesses crumble under pressure like a cookie in milk.

The real players? They use that milk to fuel their growth and come out stronger.

Embrace the chaos, & you might just find yourself thriving where others merely survive.

I'm European.

I recently visited the USA for the first time since 2018, hitting up Las Vegas and New York City.

What I witnessed left me stunned.

15 American oddities I still can't wrap my head around: Image
In the US, money is an open topic, unlike the taboo it has in Europe.

I noticed that people are excited to talk about their work and financial success without any negative vibes.

As someone who likes these topics, it felt freeing to chat about it with other like-minded people.
Fast food was disappointing.

I was so excited to try American fast food after watching tons of YouTube reviews.

But man, In-N-Out was such a letdown. The fries tasted like cardboard, and the whole experience was just meh.

I give it a 2/10. Image
