What Do PEPTIDES Actually Do To Your Body? | Michelle Sands E543

In this episode, Rich sits down with Dr. Michelle Sands to break down the world of hormones, menopause, sexual health, peptides, and human performance. Michelle explains what actually happens during perimenopause, why women can begin experiencing hormonal symptoms years before menopause, and how testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, thyroid health, and lifestyle can impact everything from sleep and energy to body composition and sex drive.

They also dive into hormone optimization for both men and women, erectile and sexual health, PT-141, HGH, NAD+, GLP-1s, weight loss, muscle preservation, and the growing longevity movement. Michelle shares her own transformation from endurance athlete to competitive bodybuilder in her 50s, why she believes muscle is one of the most important tools for longevity, and how properly combining lifestyle, nutrition, exercise, and hormone optimization can help people perform at a higher level.

If you’re listening and thinking: "I know something is off with my hormones, but I have no idea where to start.” I’d recommend watching Michelle's Hormone Restoration Masterclass. She breaks down what’s actually happening during perimenopause and menopause, what symptoms can tell you, what to test, and what your options really are.

And for women who already know they’re ready to take action and want to learn more about cleaner hormone replacement options, they can also check out Clean Hormones.
