Welcome back to Peptides for Women podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by Samantha Lander -- an FDN practitioner, international best-selling author, professional DJ, and adjunct professor at My Peptide University -- for part 2 of our Q&A series. We’re answering more questions from our community about GLP-1s, peptide therapy, inflammation, nervous system regulation, rheumatoid arthritis, bariatric surgery, weight loss plateaus, and growth hormone peptides. If you’ve ever wondered what to do when a GLP-1 stops working, which peptides may support inflammation and tissue repair, or how to approach peptides after bariatric or weight-loss surgery, this episode covers a lot of ground. We also talk about the importance of addressing the foundations first, including nutrition, movement, gut health, mitochondrial health, and nervous system regulation, rather than relying on peptides alone. Throughout the episode, Samantha and I share our own experiences with different peptides and discuss how we approach peptide protocols with clients. As always, individual responses can vary, and peptide therapy should be approached with appropriate professional guidance. In this episode, we cover: What to do when GLP-1s stop working or weight loss plateaus Why more GLP-1 isn’t necessarily better Microdosing GLP-1s and taking a more individualized approach Peptides discussed for inflammation and tissue repair , including BPC-157 and TB-500 Thymosin Alpha-1 and immune support Peptide considerations for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) What to consider when dealing with lipomas and dysregulated fatty tissue Peptides and recovery after bariatric surgery or weight-loss surgery Why muscle preservation is important during weight loss Why GLP-1s may need to be introduced carefully after bariatric surgery Gut health, SIBO, motility, and inflammation after surgery Growth hormone secretagogues including Sermorelin, CJC, Ipamorelin, and Tesamorelin Why some people experience bloating or water retention with Tesamorelin Peptides and nervous system regulation when you feel stuck in fight-or-flight Selank, oxytocin, breathwork, magnesium, minerals, and other strategies discussed for nervous system support Samantha’s experience with EMF exposure and the strategies she uses to reduce it Why peptide protocols should be bio-individual and personalized Samantha’s work teaching peptide education through My Peptide University Connect with Samantha Lander!

Welcome back to Peptides for Women podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by one of our favorite returning guests, Samantha Lander , for a fun and candid Q&A dedicated entirely to your peptide questions. Samantha is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, certified personal trainer, holistic lifestyle coach, and peptide educator who works with women and men to improve their health from the inside out. Together, we tackle some of the most common questions and concerns we hear about peptides, from whether certain peptides are appropriate with a history of cancer to using peptides for metabolism, brain fog, recovery, and healthy aging. We also dive into the importance of starting with the foundations before relying on peptides, why lower doses may sometimes be more appropriate, how Samantha approaches cycling peptides with her clients, and why the goal shouldn't simply be to suppress appetite or chase weight loss. And, as always with Samantha, expect plenty of real-world clinical experience, honest opinions, and a few entertaining tangents along the way. In this episode, we cover: Whether growth hormone peptides are appropriate for people with cancer or a history of cancer How Samantha uses bioregulators to support areas like sleep, cortisol, adrenal function, and thyroid health Using Epitalon and Pinealon as part of a sleep and circadian rhythm protocol Why Samantha prefers lower-dose GLP-1 approaches with many of her clients The difference between appetite suppression and achieving appetite balance Why metabolism doesn't necessarily “quit” when you turn 40 How peptides like AOD, 5-Amino-1MQ, Retatrutide, and Tirzepatide can fit into a broader metabolic strategy Why cycling off GLP-1s and focusing on mitochondrial health may be important The connection between gut health and brain fog Peptides and other approaches Samantha uses for cognitive support GHK-Cu, BPC-157, glutathione, and exosomes for skin and tissue repair Whether peptides and other therapies can help support a healthier biological age Why nutrition, movement, strength training, and foundational health still matter even when you're using peptides Samantha's biggest advice for getting long-term results from peptides Connect with Samantha Lander!

Welcome back to Peptides for Women podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by my husband, Beau Woodward , for another candid conversation about his experience with peptides, fitness, longevity, and what it really looks like to prioritize your health in midlife. Beau shares the routines that have helped him feel his best in his late 40s—from strength training and getting enough sleep to morning sunlight, stress management, and his current peptide stack. He also talks about his experience with GLP-1s, growth hormone peptides, NAD+, and the KLOW/Wolverine stack, including what he personally notices when he’s on and off different protocols. We also talk about why consistency becomes even more important as we age , how peptides can complement healthy habits rather than replace them, and why sourcing high-quality peptides matters. In this episode, we cover: Beau's morning routine and how he starts his day with sunlight, coffee, reading, and quiet time How his fitness routine has evolved as he's gotten older Why strength training, core work, and recovery have become priorities Beau's experience using GLP-1s and how they've affected food noise and appetite His experience with Ipamorelin + Tesamorelin for growth hormone support, recovery, sleep, and body composition The Wolverine/KLOW stack and why recovery matters more in midlife NAD+ for energy, cognition, and afternoon stamina Why sleep, exercise, sunlight, and stress management still form the foundation Why quality and sourcing matter when choosing peptides The potential intersection of AI, longevity research, and peptide therapy What Beau is researching next in the world of longevity and biotechnology Links & Resources: 🔗 Learn more at: elliemd.com/JenniferWoodwardNutrition 🎯 Take my free peptide quiz and get a personalized, midlife-smart roadmap for the peptides that actually match your symptoms and goals: https://quiz.jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/peptide-quiz 🎓 Enroll in the Peptides for Practitioners Certification Course and get $100 off for podcast subscribers: https://www.carrotsncake.com/offers/TrVo7mCz?coupon_code=PFPJENNIFER 🧬 Want to pair GLP-1s with functional lab testing? https://learn.jenniferwoodwardnutrition.com/invitation 📩 Grab The Body Edit Guide here for full protocols, labs, and more: https://stan.store/jenniferwoodwardnutrition/p/get-the-body-edit ‼️ Disclaimer ‼️ This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

Welcome back to Peptides for Women podcast! In this episode, I'm joined by Kristin Richards , a certified menopause coach, lipedema advocate, and health educator, to share her powerful journey from decades of frustration and medical gaslighting to finally receiving a lipedema diagnosis, and finding life-changing relief through hormone optimization, GLP-1 therapy, lifestyle changes, and surgery. For nearly 40 years, Kristin believed her disproportionately painful legs were simply "how God made her." After years of being told to lose weight, exercise more, and accept her symptoms, she discovered she had lipedema- a misunderstood connective tissue disorder that primarily affects women and is often triggered by hormonal changes like puberty, pregnancy, and menopause. Together, we discuss what lipedema actually is, why it's so commonly misdiagnosed, how inflammation plays a major role, and why GLP-1 peptides have become an important tool in Kristin's long-term health strategy. We also dive into the emotional side of finally receiving a diagnosis, advocating for yourself in the medical system, and helping more women recognize they aren't simply "lazy" or lacking willpower. In this episode, we cover: What lipedema is and how it differs from obesity and lymphedema Why hormonal changes often trigger lipedema progression The genetic and connective tissue components of the condition Common signs and symptoms women often overlook Kristin's personal journey to receiving a diagnosis after nearly four decades The connection between PCOS, menopause, inflammation, and lipedema Why microdosing GLP-1s became part of Kristin's long-term wellness plan Lipedema surgery: what the procedure involves, recovery, and insurance coverage The importance of compression garments and daily movement Anti-inflammatory nutrition strategies that support lipedema management Kristin's current peptide stack beyond GLP-1s The growing awareness of lipedema and why advocacy matters Connect with Kristin Richards!

Welcome back to Peptides for Women podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Ian Ellis , physician and founder of Voafit , to talk about his personal weight-loss journey, the challenges he experienced using traditional GLP-1 dosing protocols, and how those experiences led him to develop a personalized, level-based approach to GLP-1 treatment. After years of battling food noise, restrictive dieting, and the ups and downs of fitness culture, Dr. Ellis found himself confronting many of the same struggles his future patients would face. His experience sparked a deep dive into GLP-1 pharmacokinetics and ultimately led to the creation of a new dosing philosophy designed to minimize side effects, preserve lean mass, improve adherence, and create a more sustainable experience for patients. We also explore how individualized medicine could reshape the future of obesity treatment, and why finding the minimum effective dose may matter more than reaching the maximum tolerated dose. In this episode, we cover: Dr. Ellis’ personal journey through weight struggles, bodybuilding culture, and medical training How diet culture affects men differently, but often just as deeply His first experience taking semaglutide and the side effects that followed standard dose escalation The concept of GLP-1 accumulation and why the same dose may not feel the same week to week Why traditional dosing protocols may not reflect individual patient responses The idea behind “level-based dosing” and finding a personalized therapeutic sweet spot Strategies aimed at reducing nausea, GI side effects, and medication burnout The importance of preserving muscle mass during weight loss Results and lessons learned from Dr. Ellis’ initial patient cohort Why patient adherence remains one of the biggest challenges in GLP-1 treatment How technology and personalized tracking could support more individualized care in the future What clinicians should consider when patients struggle with side effects or plateauing Dr. Ellis’ vision for the next generation of obesity medicine and personalized healthcare Connect with Dr. Ian Ellis!

Welcome back to the Peptides for Women podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Melissa Petersen, founder and CEO of Human Longevity Global and president of Peptide University. She’s a global authority in longevity medicine and metabolic innovation, and fun fact, she’s also the practitioner who originally introduced me to peptides years ago! So this conversation feels like a full-circle moment, diving even deeper into the science, strategy, and philosophy behind these powerful tools. We explore how peptides and GLP-1s actually work in the body, why precision dosing matters more than ever, and the biggest mistakes both clinicians and patients are making right now. Plus, we get into the often-overlooked foundations: circadian rhythm, nervous system regulation, and metabolic inputs, that ultimately determine whether peptides work… or don’t. In this episode, we cover: The origin story behind Human Longevity Institute and Peptide University What peptides actually are (and why thinking in “molecules” changes everything) GLP-1s explained: why they’re revolutionary—and where things are going wrong Precision dosing vs. standard dosing (and why “less is more”) The real reason GLP-1 side effects happen and how to avoid them Foundational gut support before starting peptides (enzymes, nutrients, hydration) Simple, budget-friendly ways to improve digestion and metabolic health Circadian rhythm as the missing link in weight loss, sleep, and hormone balance Why timing (when you eat, sleep, and move) matters more than what you do The impact of light exposure, nervous system regulation, and daily inputs Why peptides “stop working” and what’s actually happening in the body The BioHealthSpan framework: inputs → terrain → targeted interventions → amplification How to think about health as a system, not a quick fix Connect with Dr. Melissa Petersen!

Welcome back to Peptides for Women podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by Erin Goodman , a master fitness trainer, nutrition coach, and Beachbody Live Master Trainer, to talk about her personal journey with peptides and how microdosing helped her break through stubborn weight gain while preserving muscle. After over two decades in the fitness industry, Erin found herself doing “all the right things” - tracking macros, strength training, and staying active - yet still gaining weight and feeling stuck. In this conversation, she shares how she shifted from skepticism to education, ultimately using peptides as a tool to support her already strong foundation. We also explore how peptides can complement (not replace!) key health habits like protein intake, resistance training, and consistency. Erin offers practical, real-life strategies she uses with her clients to simplify nutrition, improve adherence, and create sustainable results without extremes. In this episode, we cover: Why “doing everything right” can still lead to weight gain in midlife How microdosing tirzepatide helped her lose 25 lbs and 10% body fat The importance of using data (like body composition) instead of just the scale How peptides reduce food noise and improve consistency Why protein intake is a non-negotiable and how to increase it realistically Simple macro tracking strategies (without overwhelm) Meal prep tips to save time, money, and decision fatigue Common mistakes women make with macros (and how to fix them) Erin’s experience stacking peptides (GHK-Cu, BPC-157, Tesamorelin/Ipamorelin) Real client results and why microdosing works so well for 10–25 lb goals The importance of community, accountability, and support in long-term success Connect with Erin Goodman!
