In this Fitness Friday episode on the Habits and Hustle podcast, I talk with Dr. Tyna Moore to discuss today's most talked-about treatments. Dr. Tyna explains how peptides work differently for each person. We also discuss how they're being used to address everything from weight management to recovery, and why some industries might feel threatened by their success.

As both a Licensed Naturopathic Physician and a Chiropractor, Dr. Tyna brings a unique perspective to building robust health foundations, having graduated from the National College of Natural Medicine and the University of Western States Chiropractic College. She is also a #1 Best Selling author, international speaker, and host of The Dr. Tyna Show Podcast. What we discuss: Differences between GLP-1 peptides How peptides support natural hormone pulsing versus direct hormone replacement When Semaglutide is appropriate for patients Cycling peptides rather than continuous use Using low-dose GLP-1s for cardiovascular benefits and mood improvement How peptides can provide a "leg up" for lifestyle changes Industries potentially threatened by GLP-1 success (Big Food, pharmaceuticals, dialysis clinics) Long-term consequences of metabolic dysfunction (joint replacements, dialysis, dementia) Thank you to our sponsor: AquaTru: Get 20% off any purifier at aquatru.com with code HUSTLE Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off TruNiagen: Head over to truniagen.com and use code HUSTLE20 to get $20 off any purchase over $100.

0:00.0	Hi, guys. It's Tony Robbins. You're listening to Habits and Hustle. Crush it.
0:06.4	Hey, friends, you're listening to Fitness Friday on the Habits and Hustle podcast, where myself and my friends share quick and very actionable advice for you becoming your healthiest self. So, stay tuned and let me know how you leveled up.
0:30.8	Are there hidden benefits to GLP1 that the FDA just isn't talking about? In this Fitness Friday
0:37.3	episode of Habits and Hustle,
0:39.0	I sit down with Dr. Tina Moore to break down the truth about GLP1 medications and the hype
0:45.5	surrounding them. Dr. Tina is an expert in holistic regenerative medicine. She shares why these
0:52.3	drugs are more than just weight loss tools and how the conversation
0:56.4	around them has become very polarizing. This is a short clip from our full interview, where you can
1:02.4	find the full episode linked in the show notes below. Please listen and comment with anything
1:09.3	you'd like. Enjoy the episode.
1:18.0	Are you telling me that GLP1 and, let's say, a somerolin peptide, they're both, they're not the same peptide, but they're both in the same class. They're both peptides.
1:38.4	They're both peptides, but they're not at all the same. They don't do the same things in the body. No. They both may have some anti-inflammatory and some regenerative impacts, but they have different mechanisms.
1:45.4	What does the moral undo? That's a growth hormone, I believe, releasing hormone peptides. So that'll help you. Your growth hormone declines as you age. And they, back when I was starting practice, you could still prescribe
1:50.7	patients growth hormone. But they would get all pink and puffy. And we don't want to crank growth
1:54.5	hormone. So a lot of people, I think probably in their maybe 50s and 60s, if they've been going
2:00.5	to longevity doctors for a long time,
2:02.0	probably got some growth hormone at some point. But the FDA put a, you know, snafu on that.
2:07.2	And so when I got into practice, I was licensed as an naturopathic doctor in 2008. And my mentor was like,
2:12.3	do not prescribe growth hormone. You will get in trouble with the FDA. So I never prescribed it.
2:16.2	But I knew people that still were and I knew doctors that were still taking it or putting their patients on it. And
2:20.8	those people would get pink and puffy. And then came peptides many years later, which would help
2:25.6	support your natural pulse of growth hormone at the appropriate times. GLP1s support natural
