Episode 25: Peptides for Weight Loss, Energy & Anti-Aging? — What Midlife Women Really Need to Know
Send us your questions & comments
If you’ve been hearing more and more about peptides — especially alongside GLP-1 injections — and feeling unsure about what they actually are, how they work, or whether they’re something you should even be considering… this episode is for you.
Peptides are one of the most talked-about topics in the midlife weight-loss and anti-aging space right now — and also one of the most misunderstood.
In this episode of The Midlife Vitality Project, we slow the conversation down and replace hype with clarity.
You’ll learn:
- what peptides actually are, in simple, real-life terms
- how peptides are different from GLP-1 medications (and why injection doesn’t mean the same thing)
- the difference between everyday peptides and therapeutic peptides — and why that distinction matters
- which peptides women are most commonly hearing about, and what they’re typically used for
- how peptides are taken and accessed safely
- and how to think about peptides through a metabolic health lens — not a quick-fix mindset
We also talk about why peptides don’t replace the need for a strong metabolic foundation, and why blood sugar balance, nourishment, inflammation, and stress still matter — regardless of which tools you’re exploring.
This episode isn’t about telling you what to do.
It’s about helping you make informed, confident decisions that align with your body, your values, and this season of your life.
I’m also sharing a free Peptides 101 Guide to help you continue the conversation — with clear explanations, safety considerations, and guidance on how to decide what (if anything) makes sense for you.
