He's now the founder of Adera State, a brand built to drag peptides out of the research-chem vial era and into the mainstream — through transdermals, nasal sprays, pouches, and blends engineered with a pharmaceutical-chemistry R&D team.In this episode, Brandon and Drew lay out exactly how the peptide and supplement industries are about to be rewritten — what stays, what dies, and the 18-month window before everything changes. They get into why "feeling it" is the worst way to judge a peptide, why pharma is often ahead of the biohacking space (not behind it), and what the next generation of mainstream-friendly peptide products actually looks like.Key Takeaways:The peptides everyone's stacking that Brandon says is already behind the curveWhy "feel" is one of the worst ways to judge whether a peptide is workingThe 18-month window before the supplement industry looks nothing like it does todayThe molecular size cutoff that determines whether a peptide can go transdermal — and what to do above itWhy a 60-70% effective topical can beat a 100% effective injectable for most usersWhat RFK actually means for peptide access — and why it's not what the research community thinksThe unspoken reason injectable GLPs and topicals are heading in opposite regulatory directionsThe new Adera State product Brandon is most excited about (and the unusual delivery vehicle behind it)The "social performance" stack he gives to people who need to be on for workWhere the research-chem industry actually ends up by 2027Connect with Brandon:Adera State: https://aderastate.comBiohacking U (free education library): formerly paid, now 100% freeConnect with Drew Donaldson:DDT Method School: https://www.skool.com/ddtmethodCoaching: https://ddtmethod.com/application
