They wanted help integrating peptides into their membership program, and in return they invited me to actually go through their diagnostics as a member so I could experience the process firsthand. I went to their Orlando, Florida facility and did what would normally take seven or eight different doctor visits and specialists… all in one place, in one morning.The first part of this episode is a behind-the-scenes walkthrough of my Day 1 testing, including imaging and data collection that gives you a real baseline to work from. If you’re listening to audio-only, I highly recommend watching the video for that segment because it’s very visual. The second part is the main event: a long-form conversation with Fountain Life’s medical director and CEO, Dr. Bill Cap.In the podcast, we go deep on the real history of peptides, why so much foundational work came out of places like Russia, and why the U.S. is only now starting to catch up. We talk about what’s hype, what’s timeless, and what actually moves the needle when it comes to longevity and performance. We also get into where peptides are headed next, because as we roll into 2026, the peptide landscape may look a little different than what people have gotten used to over the last few years.We cover a ton of ground: GLP-1s as a legitimate longevity tool when used intelligently, growth hormone peptide strategies and why cycling matters, mitochondrial peptides like SS-31 and MOTS-c, and why “baseline first” is the missing piece for most people who jump into supplements, peptides, and biohacking without understanding what’s going on under the hood.This isn’t a paid advertisement. I’m documenting what I’m going through, what my results show, and how I’m thinking about using peptides and other interventions based on real data instead of guesswork. If you’ve ever wanted to see what “precision prevention” actually looks like in the real world, this episode is a great place to start.

Humanin is different. It’s an endogenous mitochondrial-derived peptide, meaning your body actually makes it naturally, and it plays a critical role in protecting cells, especially under conditions of stress and aging. What really caught my attention with Humanin is that it appears to sit at the intersection of mitochondrial health, neuroprotection, and longevity signaling.In this episode, I walk through what Humanin is, how it was discovered, and why researchers originally became interested in it, particularly in the context of Alzheimer’s disease and neurodegeneration. We’ll talk about how Humanin functions as a cellular “distress signal” from the mitochondria, how it blocks apoptosis, protects mitochondrial membranes, and helps cells survive oxidative and metabolic stress.I also break down how Humanin differs from other mitochondrial peptides like MOTS-c and SS-31, and why I see it as a uniquely powerful option for brain health and cognitive longevity. We’ll look at animal data, observational human data, and fascinating correlations showing that centenarians and their offspring tend to have significantly higher endogenous Humanin levels.From there, I cover potential benefits across brain health, metabolism, cardiovascular function, and lifespan, along with how I personally think about cycling Humanin alongside other mitochondrial peptides throughout the year. Finally, I share my practical thoughts on dosing, cycling strategies, and who I think Humanin is best suited for, especially as we get more focused on preserving cognitive function as we age.If you’re interested in mitochondrial health, longevity, brain optimization, or peptide replacement strategies, this episode will give you a solid foundation on why Humanin deserves a spot on your radar.

I’m not big on filling my house with random gadgets, and I tend to be pretty skeptical of most “biohacking toys.” But after almost a year of using the Bimini device three to four times per week, I can honestly say it’s right up there with medical-grade red light therapy for the impact it’s had on my recovery, sleep, and overall performance.I start by sharing the story of how I found Bimini at A4M in Las Vegas, saw Kyrie Irving on their booth, and got curious enough to dig into what the tech actually does. From there, I explain in simple language how the NanoJet works: it sits next to your bathtub, recirculates the water, and saturates it with ultra-fine oxygen nanobubbles that are small enough to penetrate your skin and deliver oxygen directly into your tissues — without a mask, chamber, or pressure changes.Then we dive into my real-world results:How I started hitting HRV scores in the 90s and over 100 on my Oura for the first time.What happened to my deep sleep and sleep scores when I used it at night.The massive difference I feel in soreness and recovery after heavy training days.How it’s helped Taylor with plantar fasciitis and why it’s become part of her lower-body recovery.And the surprising changes in my skin health, especially on my back, after years of struggling with acne.From there, I connect the dots with the published data Bimini has commissioned and the broader science on oxygen nanobubbles — including animal studies on wound healing, transdermal delivery studies, and what university sports programs are seeing in their athletes. I also compare NanoJet therapy to hyperbaric oxygen: what’s similar, what’s different, and why, for day-to-day use at home, I think this is a more practical option for most people.If you’re already dialed in with your training, peptides, and nutrition and you’re looking for that next-level recovery edge, this episode will give you a deep dive into a technology that almost nobody is talking about yet — but probably will be in the next few years.

We talk about the wild fact that DSIP can cross the blood–brain barrier, and why that makes nasal spray formulations surprisingly effective in real-world use.From there, we get into mechanisms: DSIP’s ability to lower ACTH and cortisol, act as a “stress-limiting” factor, nudge growth hormone a bit, modulate pain pathways, and influence neurotransmitters like Substance P. I break down why I see it as a multi-system modulator that gently rebalances the body’s own sleep circuitry instead of sedating you like Ambien.We cover the human data from the 1980s – the insomnia trials where DSIP normalized sleep architecture, the European study using DSIP in alcohol and opiate withdrawal with surprisingly high success rates, and a small pilot in chronic pain and tinnitus where most patients had meaningful relief.Then I share how I actually use it: my preferred subcutaneous dosing range of 100–500 mcg, why I think 2–3 hours before bed on an empty-ish stomach works best, and how I’m planning to use DSIP more aggressively for jet lag and circadian realignment when I travel. I also talk about my wife’s experience (she loves DSIP) versus mine (I don’t struggle with sleep, but I still see it as a staple tool).Finally, I touch on safety, the immunogenicity caveat, and why DSIP probably isn’t a top-5 peptide—but is absolutely one I’ll always keep in the house.If you want more conversations like this and direct Q&A access, make sure you’re on my email list and check out The Axion Collective, my private community for peptide researchers and optimization nerds.
