Anna Griffith, DNP, a longevity and functional medicine clinician, breaks down what from A4M is actually useful in practice. She explains why protein quality matters, the role of amino acids and leucine thresholds, practical supplements like Perfect Aminos and Urolithin A, emerging Galectin-3 research and TB-006, and why peptides need careful clinical oversight.

Episode notes

INSIGHT

Patients Overestimate Protein Intake

Many patients claim to eat enough protein but lack awareness of actual grams and amino acid composition.
Simple diet recall often misleads clinicians; precise tracking reveals true intake gaps.

ADVICE

Use Amino Supplements When Intake Is Limited

If fasting or using GLP-1s limits how much you can eat, add targeted amino acid supplements.
Consider products like Perfect Aminos to hit leucine thresholds without extra calories.

ANECDOTE

Builder Tried Oatmeal‑Only Weight Loss

Amy described a construction worker who tried losing weight by skipping meals and ate only oatmeal, leaving him irritable.
She used this story to illustrate why low‑protein, all‑day fasting can fail for many people.

A4M just gave us a front-row seat to what’s next in longevity care—here’s what we’re actually bringing back to Victory (and what we’re leaving behind).

In this episode, Amy Stuttle is joined by Anna Griffith, DNP at Victory Men’s Health to recap the biggest takeaways from A4M in Las Vegas—the largest academic conference in the U.S. for functional and longevity medicine. They break down what stood out, what felt “bright and shiny” but didn’t hold up under scrutiny, and what Victory is actually bringing back to patients.

You’ll hear practical insights on protein quality vs. just “eating more protein,” why amino acids (and leucine thresholds) matter—especially for those fasting or using GLP-1s—and the supplements they’re most excited to add, including Perfect Aminos and Urolithin A. Amy and Anna also discuss one of the most talked-about topics at the conference: TB-006 and Galectin-3 as an emerging area of research for neurodegenerative disease symptom support, plus the complementary role of modified citrus pectin.

They wrap with an update on the exploding peptide conversation—what’s real, what’s marketing, and why clinical oversight matters—and a look at new longevity tools Victory is adding at the new location, including VO2 max testing as part of a more complete longevity strategy.

If you’ve been wondering what’s next in longevity medicine—and what’s worth your time versus hype—this episode gives you the real-world, clinician-level breakdown.
