    Peptides, Herbals & Hormones for Libido- PT-141, Oxytocin, Kisspeptin & the New Science of Desire

    Peptides, Herbals & Hormones for Libido: PT-141, Oxytocin, Kisspeptin & the New Science of Desire Low libido is not simply “aging.” It is neurobiology, hormone signaling, stress physiology, and receptor sensitivity. In this episode of Anti-Aging Unraveled, Dr. Lori Gerber explores the emerging science behind desire and sexual health through the lens of integrative and regenerative medicine. We discuss: • PT-141 (Bremelanotide) and melanocortin receptor activation • Oxytocin’s role in bonding, arousal, and emotional safety • Kisspeptin as the upstream regulator of the reproductive axis • Testosterone therapy in women and dosing considerations • Estradiol, progesterone, and vaginal tissue health • Nitric oxide pathways and vascular support • Sildenafil and tadalafil compared to peptide-based approaches • Adaptogenic herbals including Maca and Tongkat Ali • Stress, cortisol, thyroid function, and inflammatory effects on libido Desire begins in the hypothalamus. It is influenced by dopamine, oxytocin, estrogen receptors, nitric oxide production, and autonomic tone. Whether you are navigating menopause, erectile dysfunction, hypoactive sexual desire disorder, or simply want to understand the physiology of intimacy, this episode provides a science-based, integrative roadmap.

    GLP-1s Aren't Just For Weight Loss Anymore

    For years, GLP-1 medications have been marketed as “weight loss drugs.” But what if weight loss is actually the side effect — not the main event? In this episode, Dr. Lori Gerber breaks down why GLP-1 receptor agonists are emerging as powerful tools for inflammation control, metabolic repair, hormone balance, brain health, and longevity — far beyond the scale. You’ll learn: Why GLP-1s work at the cellular and inflammatory level, not just appetite How GLP-1 signaling improves insulin resistance, lipid markers, cardiovascular risk, and metabolic flexibility The role GLP-1s may play in autoimmune disease, chronic inflammation, and neuroprotection Why endurance athletes, high performers, and perimenopausal patients respond differently How micro-dosing compounded GLP-1s compares to high-dose pharmaceutical pens The biggest mistakes people make that lead to fatigue, muscle loss, or rebound symptoms Who should not be on GLP-1s — and how to use them intelligently if you are This episode reframes GLP-1s through an integrative, functional medicine lens, separating hype from physiology and helping you understand how these medications can be used as precision metabolic tools, not blunt weight-loss weapons. Whether you’re struggling with weight resistance, inflammation, hormone shifts, brain fog, or metabolic burnout — this conversation will change how you think about GLP-1s.

    Inflammation Is the Thief of Youth_ How to Turn Off Chronic Fire in the Body

    Inflammation is the silent thief of youth — and most people don’t realize it’s happening until the damage is already done. In this episode of Anti-Aging Unraveled, Dr. Lori Gerber, D.O. breaks down the real reason so many people feel like they’re “aging faster” than they should: chronic inflammation. If you’ve been dealing with stubborn weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, mood changes, hormone imbalance, joint pain, poor sleep, gut issues, or autoimmune flare-ups… this may be your missing link. We’re not just talking about temporary inflammation after a workout or a cold. We’re exposing the hidden drivers of chronic low-grade inflammation—the kind that silently accelerates aging, disrupts metabolism, damages mitochondria, and increases your risk for long-term disease. In this episode, you’ll learn: ✅ Why inflammation is connected to weight loss resistance and hormone dysfunction ✅ The “inflammatory triggers” most doctors overlook (gut permeability, stealth infections, mold, toxins, insulin spikes) ✅ How chronic inflammation impacts thyroid function, estrogen detox pathways, and cortisol rhythms ✅ The most important lab markers to test (and what they actually mean) ✅ The functional + integrative strategies that calm inflammation and restore long-term resilience ✅ How Dr. Lori uses personalized protocols—including advanced lab testing, peptide therapy, detox support, and lifestyle medicine—to help patients regain energy, metabolism, and vitality If you want to feel leaner, sharper, younger, and more energized — it starts with putting out the fire. Turn off inflammation, and the body can finally heal. Ready to identify your root causes of inflammation and build a personalized plan?

    The Hidden Detox Pathways Blocking Your Weight Loss

    You’re eating clean. You’re exercising. You’re doing everything right— So why won’t the weight budge… and why do your hormones still feel off? In this episode of Anti-Aging Unraveled, Dr. Lori Gerber, D.O. breaks down the hidden detox pathways that silently sabotage weight loss, metabolism, energy, and hormone balance—even in people who live a healthy lifestyle. This isn’t about extreme cleanses or quick fixes. It’s about understanding how your body actually detoxes—and what happens when those systems are overwhelmed, inflamed, or blocked. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why liver detox overload can stall fat loss and estrogen clearance How gut dysfunction and leaky gut recycle toxins and hormones The role of mitochondrial detox in energy, metabolism, and aging Why poor lymphatic flow, sweating, and urine output matter more than calories How inflammation, environmental toxins, mold, and stress quietly disrupt hormones The lab markers that reveal detox bottlenecks most doctors never check Dr. Lori explains the medical physiology in clear, patient-friendly language, so you finally understand why your body feels stuck—and what to do next. You’ll also hear how targeted supplements, peptides, and personalized protocols can gently support detox pathways without draining your energy or slowing your metabolism. ✨ If weight loss feels harder than it should… ✨ If hormones feel unpredictable or resistant… ✨ If fatigue, bloating, or brain fog won’t go away… This episode may be the missing piece.

    Beyond the Black Box: How the WHI Study Misled America About Hormone Therapy

    Hormone Health Reborn dives deep into one of the most misunderstood chapters in women’s health: the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study and its long-lasting impact on hormone therapy. In this eye-opening conversation, we break down how the WHI’s flawed design, outdated population sample, and misleading interpretations triggered decades of fear around estrogen therapy—fear that kept millions of women from receiving safe and effective relief for menopausal symptoms. We explore the science the WHI got wrong, what modern research now confirms about bioidentical estrogen, and why the FDA’s recent decision to remove the black box warning marks a pivotal moment in women’s health. This episode empowers listeners with evidence-based insights, clears away myths about hormone therapy, and highlights what this regulatory shift means for the future of menopause care. Whether you’re a clinician, a patient, or someone curious about the history of hormone therapy, this episode offers clarity, context, and hope for a more accurate and compassionate approach to women’s hormonal health.
