Hi friends! I'm so excited to share this week's episode with one of my good friends, Tina Haupert, where we dive into the fascinating world of peptides, functional nutrition, and how to actually build a healthy lifestyle that sticks. Tina opens up about her own health journey, how peptide therapy transformed her life, and why getting the basics of your health right is the real game-changer. If you're curious about peptides but don't know where to begin, THIS episode is a great place to start!

Here's what we discuss:

• Tina's journey from a healthy living blogger to a functional nutrition practitioner

• What peptides are and how they support natural body processes

• Understanding GLP-1s and the misconceptions surrounding them

• Microdosing peptides to minimize side effects and maximize benefits

• Why foundational health practices are crucial for effective peptide use

• How stigma around peptides is shifting as awareness grows

• And so. much. MORE!

Tina Haupert is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), Certified Nutrition Coach, and founder of Carrots 'N' Cake. For the past 17+ years, she's helped thousands of women lose weight, gain energy, balance their hormones, and build stronger, leaner bodies without giving up the foods they love. After personally battling ulcerative colitis, post-birth control syndrome, and the frustration of doctors not listening, Tina made it her mission to help other women get real answers and real results. Through functional testing and data-driven coaching, she helps women uncover the root causes behind their weight loss resistance, fatigue, and hormonal imbalances, so they can finally feel in control of their bodies again. Tina lives south of Boston with her husband, son, and pug, and loves walking, hiking, traveling (especially to Vermont) and discovering new restaurants with her family.

If any of my fellow health professional friends are looking for another way to help their clients, I highly recommend IHP. You can also use this information to heal yourself and then go one to heal others, which I think is a beautiful mission. You can absolutely join if you don't currently work in the health or fitness industry; many IHPs don't begin on this path. They're friends who are passionate to learn more about health and wellness, and want to share this information with those they love. You can do this as a passion, or start an entirely new career.
