58. The Peptide Series Finale

If you have been here all month, this final episode is the one Tanya has been building toward, the honest, bigger-picture conversation that ties the whole series together.

In this series finale, Tanya covers Thymosin Alpha-1, an immune support peptide that works at a completely different level than everything covered in the previous three episodes, and NAD+, NMN, and NR, including why oral NAD+ has poor bioavailability, what NMN and NR actually do differently, and the three routes available from oral supplements to subcutaneous injections to IV infusions.

She then steps back for the broader conversation she has been building toward all month: where the functional medicine community's enthusiasm around peptides is genuinely well-placed, where it has moved into influencer and MLM territory that warrants real discernment, the specific health circumstances where a GLP-1 may actually make sense, what to prioritize if you are on one, and where she feels most aligned across the full peptide landscape.

This is the final episode in the four-part July peptide series. Episode 55 covered the GLP-1 class. Episode 56 went into the growth hormone peptides. Episode 57 covered the healing and repair peptides. This episode closes the series with the two remaining categories and the honest, bigger-picture conversation Tanya has been saving for last.
