PEPTIDES are the best-kept secret in modern medicine.

They heal your body, boost muscle growth, and even slow aging.

They might even explain how celebs like Hugh Jackman & Jennifer Aniston still look 30 in their 50s.

Here's everything you need to know about them: 🧵 Image
First off, what are peptides?

They’re short chains of amino acids—tiny proteins made of 2 to 50 building blocks.

They act like messengers, telling your body to heal, regenerate tissue, and balance hormones.

But why should you care about them?
As you get older, your body produces fewer peptides.

• Recovery slows
• Energy fades
• Hormones go out of sync

Peptide therapy steps in to restore what’s missing—so you bounce back faster and feel stronger.

Let’s look at what they can do: Image
1. Speed up injury recovery

Peptides like BPC-157 and TB-500 are known for their healing power.

They speed up the repair of muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

That’s why athletes swear by them—and why everyday folks use them to fix nagging aches and pains.
2. Burn belly fat

Tesamorelin peptide goes after visceral fat—the fat around your organs that raises your risk of:

• Diabetes
• Heart disease
• Certain cancers

It helps your body shed fat naturally without harsh stimulants or crash diets. And can promote deeper sleep. Image
3. Boost energy levels

For energy and fatigue, peptides like MOTS-c and SS-31 help your cells pump out more energy, especially during the day.

Many users report feeling sharper, more focused, and less drained.
4. Support the immune system

Thymosin Alpha-1 is a peptide that trains your immune system how to stay balanced.

It doesn’t just boost your immune system—it regulates it.

It turns up the volume when needed (like during infection) & turns it down for autoimmune issues. Image
5. Make your skin look younger.

GHK-Cu, also known as copper peptide, is like collagen in a bottle. It helps:

• Boost collagen synthesis
• Tighten skin
• Smooth wrinkles

It’s likely why so many celebs still have great skin in their 50s.
6. Balance hormones

Some peptides gently nudge your body to restart its own hormone production.

Unlike traditional hormone therapy, peptides don’t replace your hormones.

They reactivate them.

This makes them a safer, more natural option for many people.
Here’s a list of other popular peptides:

• ARA-290: Reduces nerve pain
• Melanotan 1: Skin tan enhancer
• DSIP: Improves sleep
• LL-37: Fights infection
• Oxytocin: Boosts empathy & recovery
• Selank: Reduces worry
• Cardio 3+: Heart, blood vessels & liver support

Are peptides safe?

Used properly, peptides have a solid safety record.

But you should talk to your doctor before starting—especially if you’re pregnant, nursing, or have underlying health issues.

They can help match the right peptide for your body and goals.

Did the obesity epidemic start with sugar?

Or start with vitamins?

The government’s decision to add synthetic B vitamins to white flour in 1941 was an experiment first tested not on humans, but on pigs.

Here’s the story: Image
Think about scurvy (a disease caused by a deficiency of vitamin C).

In the past, if you gave British sailors lemon juice, you wouldn’t just cure scurvy. You’d also erase their craving for fruits & vegetables.

Now, picture doing something similar with today's food. Image
In 1941, the US mandated “enrichment” of refined flour with niacin, riboflavin, thiamin, and iron.

It worked: pellagra (a deadly vitamin B deficiency disease) vanished almost overnight.

But something else happened, too.

Fasting for 72 hours is the best medicine on Earth.

It triggers your body to "eat up" tumors, inflammation, and toxins.

It's literally a doctor within.

Here's how to fast correctly (according to science): 🧵 Image
Image
Most people think fasting is just about weight loss or giving their digestive system a break.

But the "magic" occurs at the cellular level through autophagy.

This is where your body literally begins to eat itself.

Let me explain:
Autophagy = cellular cleanup

During extended fasting, your cells start recycling damaged proteins, dysfunctional mitochondria, and even early-stage cancer cells.

Your body finally gets the chance to take out the accumulated trash that's been causing inflammation and disease. Image

Chronic fatigue isn’t "aging."

It starts when your mitochondria (the power plants of your cells) begin to fail.

I spent years exhausted, sick, and anxious before learning how to revive them.

Here’s how I fixed my mitochondria and rebuilt limitless energy: 🧵
I lived with chronic disease through my early twenties.

Always getting sick, skin cuts took weeks to heal, constant pain, and crippling anxiety.

I wondered if I had AIDS because my immune system was so shot.

Then I learned what was really happening inside my cells. Image
Your mitochondria are like tiny factories inside every cell.

They take oxygen and nutrients and convert them into ATP (your body's energy currency).

When they're damaged, you feel like garbage, no matter how much you sleep.

Fenbendazole is the future of cancer treatment.

It's helped terminal cancer patients achieve complete remission when chemo failed.

Big Pharma can't patent it, so they ignore it.

Here's everything you need to know: 🧵 Image
Fenben is a cheap veterinary medication you can buy at any pet store.

@MakisMD has documented complete cancer remissions in advanced patients using this drug.

We're talking about kidney, breast, and prostate cancers disappearing.

The mechanism? Image
Fenben attacks cancer in three ways:

• Breaks its ability to divide
• Starves it of glucose
• Forces cell death

Healthy cells stay mostly unaffected. Image

Your health is your greatest asset.

I've invested 30 years and $1M+ testing every health tool imaginable.

Most are snake oil. These 13 actually moved the needle.

The evidence-based health investments that transformed my health and performance: 🧵 Image
Image
1. MSM (Organic Sulfur)

My #1 supplement, if I could only take one.

It increases cell permeability, allowing more oxygen and nutrients into cells.

Within days of taking multiple grams daily, even stubborn scar tissue begins to noticeably soften. Image
2. Red light therapy

Red light therapy sounds like pseudoscience until you try it.

Specific wavelengths penetrate skin and supercharge your mitochondria.

Result: better collagen, less inflammation, deeper sleep, and more energy.

Use 5-15 minutes daily. Total game changer. Image

Everyone over 30 blames weight gain, brain fog, & fatigue on "getting older."

Turns out it's not your metabolism or your age...

It's your lymphatic system that's completely backed up after years of neglect.

Here's how to flush it clean and feel 20 again:
Your lymphatic system is a network of vessels that runs parallel to your blood vessels.

Blood delivers nutrients.
Lymph collects garbage: dead cells, toxins, bacteria, excess fluid.

It filters the waste through lymph nodes, then reenters your bloodstream for elimination.
Imagine lymph as your body's garbage truck.

It collects cellular waste from every tissue through a network 3x larger than your blood vessels.

But unlike blood, lymph has no heart to pump it.

It only moves when YOU move it.
