Pushing The Limits

Peptide Therapy and Caring for Our Cells with Dr William Seeds

We often associate illnesses and pains with old age. But our guest today reveals that the real cause of health problems is how you've lived your life. Accumulated amounts of stress can change our bodies down to the cellular level. Luckily, scientific discoveries such as peptide therapy can help our cells function better. Age is not the issue. If you take care of yourself, being older can mean being at the peak of your performance.

In this episode, Dr William Seeds joins us to discuss how our cells function and how epigenetic influences can harm our bodies. He shares how peptides and peptide therapy play a crucial role in keeping ourselves healthy and treating injuries and illnesses! As we age, our bodies slowly lose their ability to perform specific functions, including growth hormone production. But with the right intervention, including peptide therapy, a 100-year-old can produce just as many growth hormones as someone a quarter their age!

If you want to learn more about peptide therapy and how to age gracefully, then this episode is for you!

Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode:

  1. Understand that taking care of our cells and helping them function properly is essential to living a healthier life.
  2. Discover why diseases are not a function of age but how we have experienced life and accumulated negative influences on our cells.
  3. Learn the importance of growth hormones and how peptides and peptide therapy can help with the neuroplasticity of our brains.

Episode Highlights [05:29] William's Background and His Father's Death

  • William used to train with his father when he was a young athlete.
  • Unfortunately, he lost his father on the track right before his eyes. He could not do anything to save him.
  • His life changed drastically afterwards. As the eldest sibling, he had to take charge.
  • William questioned how someone could seem like they're in the best of health but die so early. This thought led him to learn more about biochemistry and molecular biology.
  • In the full episode, he shares the one book that jump-started his interest in biology and chemistry.
[09:15] Shifting from Business to Medical School
  • William shares that he was a business major, but he spent most of his college days researching and reading more about biochemistry.
  • He became so good that he started helping people with their biology classes.
  • When he graduated from business school, he knew that his path was in medicine. Along the way, he faced people telling him that he couldn't do it.
  • However, he found a way to enter medical school by taking accelerated classes during the summer. These classes let him qualify for the entrance exam.
  • People's advice, even disbelief, can help us achieve the impossible. Listen to the full episode to learn more about William's shift and how he even got early admission!
[16:59] The Value of Constant Learning
  • When William went into medical school, there were many things that didn't make sense to him. So he used to argue and get in trouble.
  • He observed that the cell is more important than we give it credit for. While it's good to know its components, it's more important to understand how we can use it to treat illnesses.
  • His work on nutrition and the cell built his orthopedic career and research on peptides. Eventually, he taught others about the application of peptides in their practices.
  • Learning is not about being smart; it's about constantly working hard to gain and build knowledge. </
