Curious about peptides but unsure where to start?

In this conversation, I speak with clinical pharmacist and author Jim LaValle about how specific peptides like BPC-157 and KPV can support gut health, reduce inflammation, and potentially accelerate healing in those with autoimmune thyroid conditions. He breaks down the mechanisms in layman’s terms, including how gut permeability and chronic stress can feed into conditions like Hashimoto’s and Graves’.

We also explore the nuances around GLP-1 medications for weight loss, the role of peptides in hair loss recovery, and whether certain compounds are appropriate for long-term use. Throughout, we return to the theme that peptides are tools—not magic—and they’re most effective when paired with foundational lifestyle shifts.

Tune in to learn where peptides can fit into your thyroid or autoimmune healing journey!
