Peptides are quietly changing the future of health—and most people still don’t understand what they are or why they matter.

In this episode of Next to Madison, I sit down with Dr. Todd Schlifstein, a leading expert in peptide therapy, to break down what peptides actually are, how they work in the body, and why they’re becoming one of the most talked-about tools in modern medicine, longevity, and performance optimization.

We dive into how peptides can support healing, fat loss, muscle recovery, hormone balance, inflammation reduction, brain health, and aging—without the hype or confusion. Dr. Schlifstein explains the science in a way that actually makes sense, clearing up common misconceptions and sharing what people should know before considering peptide therapy.

If you’re curious about biohacking, longevity, or taking a smarter, more proactive approach to your health, this conversation will change how you think about what’s possible.

This episode is informative, practical, and grounded in real science—no fear-mongering, no magic pills, just clarity.
