Dean Henry has spent 11 years deep in peptide research after his misdiagnosed ACL led him down the regenerative medicine rabbit hole, and this conversation reveals why therapeutic peptides work completely differently than peptide drugs, and how to avoid toxic contamination from sketchy labs.

Learn why the raw material might be fine, but contamination happens during filling in unsterile environments, how micro-dosing triple agonists for longevity differs drastically from medical protocols, and why combining growth hormone peptides with recovery compounds optimises results.
