Have a question or comment? Send a text or voice note and let's chat!Are peptides safe for women over 40? I spent $1,600 on a peptide that didn't work for me. Before you try peptides for weight loss, wellness, energy, or skin, these are the 3 things I check first.The peptide I paid for is a genuine FDA-approved drug called tesamorelin. It's proven to work. So why did it leave me with swollen joints, puffy hands, and nothing to show for my money? The answer changed how I look at every peptide on the market, including semaglutide and whatever your wellness clinic is selling right now.I'm sharing what happened when I ordered NAD+ from 2 different clinics, the purity study that made me stop trusting labels, and the 10-minute background check I run on any clinic or compounding pharmacy before anyone gets my credit card. If there's a vial in your fridge or a clinic's checkout page open on your phone, listen to this before you spend another dollar.Websites Mentioned:NABP — Compounding Pharmacy AccreditationPCAB — Compounding Accreditation through ACHC📺 Watch: The Truth About Tesamorelin: Is It Actually Worth It?RESOURCES:💪🏼 The Strong Core Method: my 4-week at-home core program for women over 40, built for every level, even if you've never worked out a day in your life. 12 guided workouts per level with video demos, 20 minutes, 3 times a week, to build a stronger, more defined midsection.📝 Grab the FREE Fat Loss Formula Workbook to calculate your maintenance calories, your protein target, and your exact calorie deficit.🎯 Take the FREE 'What's My Metabolism Type' Quiz to identify your unique metabolism type and get a personalized plan to manage your weight confidently.💌 Stay connected: join my BTB Newsletter for weekly insights.🎧 Listen Next: Muscle Loss After 40: Why Losing Weight Speeds It UpLET'S CONNECT!📱 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/behindthebody.co/📲 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/behindthebody.co🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@behindthebody📌 Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/BehindtheBody/🎙️ Podcast: https://behindthebodypodcast.buzzsprout.com💌 Join my Newsletter: https://behindthebody.com/Newsletter👩🏻‍💻 Behind the Body Website: https://behindthebody.com/🔔 SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW:If you loved this episode, please take a moment to subscribe and leave a quick review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

For 20 years, I under-ate, avoided weights, and lived on cardio chasing skinny, and none of it gave me a body I was proud of. In my mid-30s, I changed my approach: more protein, real strength training, and a plan that fit my life. I lost 20 pounds, and 10 years later, at 45, I'm still maintaining it through perimenopause. I help women over 40 simplify their approach, build real strength, and get results that last. Every week, I cover the science, the strategy, and the honest truth about fat loss and maintenance for women over 40.3MEDICAL DISCLAIMER:This content is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
