Haas are joined by Dr. Sam Borghei 20-year ER physician and owner of My Hair MD and Todd Padberg, General Manager of My Hair MD. We dig into hair restoration, natural-looking results, peptides for recovery, and the future of medicine. Chapters: 00:00 – Intro & Guest Introduction03:18 – ER Life, Stress & Burnout06:14 – Personality Traits of ER Doctors10:08 – Transition Out of ER12:16 – Hair Transplant Process Explained18:04 – Procedure, Recovery & Limitations23:02 – Industry Trends & Patient Demand25:55 – Recovery, Peptides & Healing29:41 – Cost Breakdown & Expectations34:23 – Preventative Medicine & Telehealth Vision38:57 – Trust in Medicine Post-COVID43:12 – Peptides, Research & Future Outlook49:00 – Fitness, Hormones & Lifestyle54:54 – Contact Info & Outro We cover: 🧬 Who is Sam Borghei? 20+ years in frontline ER medicine. Now owner of My Hair MD in San Diego and building a telehealth longevity platform focused on hormone optimization, weight loss, and personalized wellness. ✂️ How a hair transplant works FUE method: follicles are individually extracted from the DHT-resistant donor zone (back of the head). A 3,000–3,500 graft procedure involves 10,500+ steps over 6–8 hours. Grafts are sorted by size heavy grafts go to the back, singles go up front for a natural hairline. Those donor follicles do NOT grow back you have a finite supply (6,000–10,000 max). 🎨 The art of a natural result Hairlines are drawn jagged on purpose. Single hairs line the very front, temples are always filled in, and age-appropriate design matters. Artistry makes all the difference. 💉 Peptides & hair recovery Will used BPC-157, TB-500, and GHK-Cu shampoo post-transplant. BPC-157 and TB-500 support angiogenesis and blood flow to follicles. GHK-Cu supports collagen production and scalp stabilization. Will's results were fast with minimal shedding. PRP and laser light therapy are also available at My Hair MD. 💊 Medications that protect your transplant Dutasteride blocks DHT (which miniaturizes and kills follicles). Minoxidil increases blood flow to support graft survival. Both are commonly used alongside transplants. 💡 Pricing FUE: ~$3.50/graft | FUT strip: ~$3.00/graft. All-inclusive, no hidden fees, financing available. Online consultations offered. Contact Todd: todd@myhairmd.com 🩺 Where medicine is heading Dr. Borghei's telehealth platform (Summer) offers personalized longevity plans biomarker monitoring, hormone optimization, weight loss, and hair restoration. His take: medicine is not one-size-fits-all, and the patient-physician relationship needs to come back. 🧠 Real talk on peptides Peptides are chains of amino acids with a remarkably low risk profile compared to many pharmaceuticals. FDA classifications are shifting, research is coming, and early adopters are already seeing results.

    Peptide of the Week: NAD+ & Tesofensine: Anti-Aging and Brain-Based Weight Loss Explained

    Medical Disclaimer: We are not doctors. The content in this video is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Any compounds discussed may be intended for research purposes only. Use at your own risk. Welcome back, warriors! JD Denham and William T. Haas break down two powerhouse compounds NAD+ and Tesofensine covering what they are, how they work, real-world experience, and how to dose them right. Chapters: 00:00 – Intro & Life Updates05:30 – Parenting, Discipline & Boys10:00 – Family, Values & Growth18:30 – NAD Explained (What It Does)25:30 – NAD Benefits & Real Results29:00 – NAD Dosing & Side Effects37:45 – NAD Cycles & Best Use38:15 – Tesofensine Breakdown42:00 – Energy, Focus & Fat Loss Effects48:30 – Who Should (and Shouldn’t) Use It52:30 – Dosing, Side Effects & Warnings55:30 – School Platform & What’s Next57:45 – Outro 🧬 What is NAD+? A coenzyme found in every cell in your body — essential for life. Powers over 500 enzymatic reactions and is critical for ATP (cellular energy) production. Declines dramatically with age: 100% at birth → 55% by age 40 → 34% by age 60. That decline is why we age — cells stop repairing and regenerating as well. 🔥 What NAD+ actually does – DNA and cellular repair — slows aging at the genetic level – Boosts natural cellular energy (not stimulant energy) – Neuroprotective — mental clarity, sharper focus, better brain function – Improves insulin sensitivity, lipid regulation, and cardiovascular function – Regulates inflammatory pathways and immune response 🧠 What is Tesofensine? A triple reuptake inhibitor (serotonin + dopamine + norepinephrine). Originally developed for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's — researchers noticed patients losing massive amounts of weight. Clinical trials showed 9–11% average body weight loss over 24 weeks. ⚖️ How Tesofensine works – Targets the brain — makes food stop giving you a dopamine hit – Reduces cravings for sweets and junk without fully suppressing hunger like GLP-1s – Does NOT spike blood sugar during fasting – Real energy increase — dopamine-driven motivation, not jittery stimulant energy – Great GLP-1 transition compound for weaning off without falling off track 💡 Real-world experience JD's first run felt off and tired — gave it a bad rep initially. Second run (last 3 weeks): loves the focused, clean energy, similar to Modafinil. Will: no more naps, more motivated, doesn't want to miss the day. Both agree — take it in the first half of the day, it will keep you up. ⚠️ What to avoid – Do NOT combine with SSRIs, SNRIs, or NDRIs (Zoloft, Wellbutrin, etc.) – Reduce caffeine — unnecessary stimulant overload – Do NOT combine with Modafinil – Not recommended for uncontrolled hypertension, bipolar disorder, or severe anxiety – Monitor blood pressure and run regular bloodwork 📺 Subscribe for more no-fluff peptide education every week.

    Peptide of the Week: HGH Frag 176-191 vs AOD 9604 – The Fat Burning Fragments Explained

    Medical Disclaimer: We are not doctors. The content in this video is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Any compounds discussed may be intended for research purposes only. Use at your own risk. Welcome back, warriors! In this episode of Peptide of the Week, JD Denham and William T. Haas break down two of the most underrated fat-burning peptides out there — HGH Fragment 176-191 and AOD 9604 what makes them different, how to use them, and why they deserve a spot in your cutting stack. Chapters: 00:00 – Intro & Marriage / Work Balance 10:30 – AOD 9604 vs HGH Frag Intro 14:29 – AOD Origins & Fat Loss Benefits 19:13 – Half-Life, Dosing & How It Works 24:11 – School Community & Membership Update 27:05 – Which Is Better: AOD or Frag? 29:00 – Why Real Experience Matters 29:54 – Company Growth & What’s Next 31:13 – Hair Transplant Guest Preview 31:58 – Doctors Finally Talking Peptides 32:32 – Final Thoughts & Outro We cover: 🧬 What these peptides actually are – Both are fragments of the full 191 amino acid HGH chain – HGH Frag 176-191 = the natural amino acid sequence (176–191) – AOD 9604 = lab-engineered version (177–191), modified for longer duration and better safety profile – AOD received FDA GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status in 2014 – Developed at Monash University in Australia 🇦🇺 🔥 What they do (and what they don't) – Target lipolysis — fat burning, especially visceral/abdominal fat – Boost metabolism and increase energy expenditure – No IGF-1 spike – No hypoglycemia risk – No effect on growth — zero cancer concern – 30–50% greater fat reduction vs controls in studies – Obese participants lost significantly more body fat vs placebo over 12 weeks ⚖️ HGH Frag 176-191 – Natural fragment of the HGH chain – Half-life: ~30 minutes – Can dose 1–2x daily (some go 3x) – Best taken fasted — morning or pre-workout – Cycle length: 8–12 weeks – Comes in 5mg bottles (they don't like water — keep it small) 👑 AOD 9604 – Lab-engineered, modified for longer stability – Half-life: 30–60 minutes – Daily dosing (can split AM/PM) – Additional benefit: potential cartilage and joint repair (not seen with HGH Frag) – Cycle length: 12–16 weeks – FDA GRAS status — one of the safest peptides available – JD's personal top 5 — shines brightest stacked with other cutting compounds 🚫 What NOT to combine – High-dose corticosteroids – Full-dose HGH (defeats the purpose of the targeted safety advantage) – Insulin (just don't) ✅ What pairs great with these – GLP-1 agonists (Semaglutide, Tirzepatide) – 5-Amino-1MQ – L-Carnitine – BPC-157 + TB-500 (especially with AOD for joint/cartilage synergy) – CJC + Ipamorelin (boosts metabolism and fat burning further) 🧠 Real-world take – AOD shines brightest when stacked — it's a force multiplier for your cutting stack – HGH Frag works fast and hits hard on a short half-life – Both are tools — results depend on diet, training, and what you stack them with – Individual response varies — don't let your gym bro's experience dictate yours 🔑 Bottom line: If you want pure fat burning with virtually zero downsides, these two are as clean as it gets. 🧪 This isn't theory this is real-world experience working with hundreds of people and seeing what actually works. 📺 Subscribe for more no-fluff peptide education every week.
