In this episode of Santa Cruz Medicinals Radio, I sit down with Dr. Abud Bakri to discuss peptides, longevity, injury recovery, sleep, hormones, mitochondrial health, fertility, and the future of medicine. We begin by breaking down my current ACL recovery protocol, including BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu, Tesamorelin, and growth hormone support. Dr. Bakri explains how these compounds may influence healing, recovery, and performance while also discussing the current regulatory landscape surrounding peptides and where the industry may be heading. We also dive into Retatrutide, GLP-1 medications, muscle loss during weight loss, bio-regulators, circadian rhythm, sleep optimization, and some of the fascinating longevity research coming out of Russia. Dr. Bakri explains Epitalon, Pinealon, thymus health, mitochondrial function, and why simple habits like sunlight, sleep, and stress management still play a huge role in long-term health. Later in the episode, we discuss fertility, pregnancy, epigenetics, growth hormone use in children, genetic screening, the future of designer babies, and the ethical questions surrounding modern medicine and human optimization. We also cover blood work, hormone testing, nervous system regulation, HRV, low testosterone in young men, anxiety, stress, and the health challenges facing younger generations today. As always, this conversation is intended for educational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice. If you're interested in recovery, longevity, peptides, hormones, sleep, mitochondrial health, or optimizing your health, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
