Featured Episode:
In this episode of the Huberman Lab Podcast, neuroscientist Andrew Huberman sits down with Dr. Craig Koniver to explore the frontiers of peptide and hormone therapies.
Together, they unpack:
- The science behind key therapeutic peptides such as GLP-1 agonists, BPC-157, and growth hormone secretagogues
- How peptides influence factors like tissue repair, sleep quality, metabolic health, and cognitive performance
- Safe protocol design: sourcing, dosage, cycling, and combining therapies - plus what to watch out for
- Emerging tools for mitochondrial support, including NAD infusions, methylene blue, and methylated B vitamins
- The often-overlooked role of mindset, positivity, and lifestyle integration in maximizing therapeutic outcomes
They also underscore the importance of clinical oversight - highlighting regulatory pitfalls, compounding pharmacy standards, and the difference between theory and responsible application. It’s a comprehensive, science-first approach to navigate what’s often considered the “wild west” of peptide therapy.
