Everyone's Talking About Peptides. Here's What Women Need to Know

Peptides are everywhere right now.

From anti-ageing and glowing skin to muscle preservation, injury recovery and weight loss, they're being hailed as the next frontier in health optimisation. But are they really the miracle solution many claim them to be?

In this episode of the Biohackher Podcast, Azra sits down with peptide educator and former founder of one of Australia's largest peptide clinics BIOV8, Ted McGill, to separate fact from fiction. Ted is now the CEO and Founder of MediHealthcare and SEVYN.

Together, they explore what peptides actually are, why they've become so popular, the growing interest among women, and the critical safety considerations that often get overlooked.

You'll learn why peptides are not a replacement for healthy lifestyle habits, how they may support recovery, skin health, cognition and healthy ageing, and why the source of your peptides matters more than most people realise.

This conversation also dives into the exploding grey market, the risks of unregulated products, the realities of GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic, and the questions every woman should ask before considering peptide therapy.
