Peptides EXPLAINED: Your Beginner’s Guide | Are They Safe? How They Work & How to Start | Ep 12

If you’ve been curious about peptides but overwhelmed by conflicting information, hype, or fear… this episode is your starting point.

Peptides seem to be everywhere right now, but most people still don’t really understand what they are, how they work, or whether they’re safe.

In this episode of Becoming Superconscious, Tommy sits down with leading peptide expert Awais Spall to break down “Peptides 101” in a clear, beginner-friendly way.

During the episode, Tommy also tries peptides for the first time live, as part of a clinician-guided research study. We hope this demystifies the process and removes fear for people who are curious but hesitant.

This is not a results episode. It’s a crash course for beginners.

We cover:

– What peptides actually are

– How peptides work in the body

– The difference between peptides, supplements, and steroids

– Why peptides are becoming so popular in longevity and functional medicine

– Common beginner peptides people start with

– How people safely get started
