Peptides in Practice - Beyond the Hype

Join Dr. Lori Gerber, D.O., for a deep dive into the world of peptides in integrative and functional medicine. In this episode, Dr. Lori explains how peptides are not quick fixes or magic bullets, but carefully targeted therapies that can support healing, recovery, hormone balance, immune health, sexual wellness, and longevity when used appropriately and monitored safely. You’ll learn about growth hormone–stimulating peptides like Ipamorelin and Tesamorelin for energy, fat loss, and hormone optimization; BPC-157 and TB-500 for decreasing inflammation, accelerating injury recovery, and boosting immunity; PT-141 for improving libido and treating sexual dysfunction; and MOTs-C, a mitochondrial peptide that reduces oxidative stress and enhances cellular energy production. Whether you’re curious about anti-aging strategies, hormone health, peptide therapy, or cutting-edge recovery tools, this episode gives you a behind-the-scenes look at how peptides are transforming integrative medicine today.
