MOTS-c is a peptide your body already makes in small amounts. Think of it like a little helper made in your mitochondria the “power plants” inside your cells.

Here’s what MOTS-c does:
✅ 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗽𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗴𝗮𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗮𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆
✅ 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮

👉🏼Let me preface this with before supplements, peptides, or prescriptions, you need the basics dialed in: consistent sleep, nutrient-dense anti-inflammatory food, daily movement, and a mindset that supports healing rather than stress.

𝗢𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲, 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝗮 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 → 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 → 𝗕𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝘆𝗿𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁:

👉🏼 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱:
Start with Saccharomyces boulardii, a probiotic yeast that restores gut balance and supports the intestinal barrier, and selenium (200 mcg), which helps convert T4 to T3 and reduces TPO antibodies.

👉🏼 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿:
Add Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN)—a powerful immune modulator that calms autoimmunity, reduces systemic inflammation, and improves symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, and pain.

👉🏼 𝗕𝗲𝘀𝘁:
In advanced cases, layer in:
💉 Peptides like Thymosin Alpha-1 to retrain the immune system
⛈️IV Ozone therapy to support mitochondria, circulation, and detox
💊 Larazotide acetate to block zonulin and repair the tight junctions in the gut at the root

Autoimmunity doesn’t resolve by treating symptoms alone it requires system-level repair. The method I use with my patients supports gut integrity, regulates immune response, and creates a true environment for thyroid healing.

💉Back and now available…. Who remembers injectable GHK-Cu!

👉🏼GHK-Cu, a copper peptide that i’ve used in patients for hair restoration, collagen induction, skin rejuvenation, scar therapy, anti-aging, sunburn, skin pigmentation, scar therapy and so much more…

Benefits-
🔹 Collagen Production: GHK-Cu stimulates the synthesis of collagen, essential for maintaining skin structure and elasticity.

🔹 Wound Healing: This peptide enhances the body’s natural healing processes, promoting quicker recovery from skin injuries.

🔹 Anti-Inflammatory: GHK-Cu helps reduce inflammation, making it beneficial for conditions like acne and rosacea.

🔹 Moisture Retention: By boosting glycosaminoglycan levels, it aids in moisture retention, resulting in plumper, more hydrated skin.

🔹 Hair Growth Support: Research suggests GHK-Cu can revitalize hair follicles, potentially improving hair density and health.

Incorporating GHK-Cu into your skincare routine and hair protocol can lead to visible improvements in skin texture, hair regrowth and overall appearance. We offer this as an injectable, a serum mixed with estriol as well as a hairspray.

📉 In 2002, a study by the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) raised concerns, linking HT to higher risks of breast cancer, heart disease, and stroke. This caused a dramatic decline in HT use as fear grew around these potential risks.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝘄𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀
👉🏻 Narrow Focus: The WHI 2002 study tested only one type of HT (conjugated estrogen and synthetic progestin) in oral form, which doesn’t represent the variety of HT options available today.
👉🏻Older Population Bias: The study primarily included women in their 60s and 70s, not newly menopausal women, skewing results on risks for younger candidates.
👉🏻Overemphasized Risks: Initial results highlighted potential dangers without acknowledging benefits leading to widespread fear and confusion.

📚𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆. Studies now indicate that for many women, especially those under 60 and within 10 years of menopause onset, HT can be both safe and beneficial.

🌸 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗧? Beyond symptom relief, HT can ease hot flashes, improve sleep quality, reduce bone loss, and support mood stability, overall improving not only your quality of life but 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗟𝗧𝗛𝗦𝗣𝗔𝗡 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗟𝗢𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗧𝗬!

➡️ Not all HT is the same. Different types, doses, and delivery methods mean HT can be personalized to fit your health needs. It’s important to discuss options with a provider knowledgeable about menopause care.

📚According to a 2025 study in Reproductive Biology & Endocrinology, researchers compared tirzepatide injections to testosterone cream in men with obesity and low testosterone.

👉🏼The surprise? Tirzepatide increased testosterone levels by over 120% almost triple the rise seen with testosterone cream.

❌𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿? Because insulin resistance is one of the biggest root causes of 𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗿𝘂𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 in both men and women. Anyone who is calling themselves a hormone provider 𝗡𝗘𝗘𝗗𝗦 to understand this!

🍭When insulin is high and blood sugar is unstable, it suppresses your brain’s hormone signaling and increases fat-driven estrogen production.

💢That creates a hormonal mess: low testosterone, high estrogen, and symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, low libido, and mood swings.

👑This is why I’ve built a robust program that goes far beyond one-size-fits-all hormone therapy. Yes, we offer many options for peptides but also customized testosterone replacement options that outperform creams in clinical experience. That includes injections, pellets, Kyzatrex, and endogenous support like enclomiphone and HCG when appropriate.

Suffering through it in silence? That shouldn’t be.

👉🏼73% of women don’t treat their symptoms.
👉🏼Nearly half of doctors aren’t trained to help.
👉🏼And yes, most med schools still treat menopause like a footnoteif they cover it at all.

📚That’s why I’ve spent thousands of hours getting trained in functional and longevity medicine. Because women deserve more than band-aid fixes and blank stares. They deserve real answers, real care, and a plan that actually works.

These aren’t “nice to haves.” They’re the foundation of actual menopause care. More and more I see “functional wellness” talking about this peptide for you weightloss or that peptide NAD ❌ lets be clear NAD is not a peptide! The one thing I am praying is that these wellness practices are addressing the core foundation which is 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲 and not just putting people and hormones and peptides with out addressing the big rocks (sleep, movement, protein, stress, nutrients.)

❌𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: 𝟭𝟬𝟬% 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗴𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗽𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲. Yet, 70–80% of women report symptoms that interfere with daily life, from sleep disruptions to brain fog. Many could benefit from hormone therapy (HRT) but most never get it.

In fact, although millions of women qualify, only about 𝟰.𝟳% of postmenopausal women in the U.S. currently use HRT, down from 26.9% in 1999. In women aged 50–59, the group most likely to benefit usage is even lower.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸:
➡️ 1 in 3 women in the U.S. is currently in or beyond menopause.
➡️ The average woman will live more than 30 years postmenopause nearly a third of her life often with unmanaged symptoms.

👉🏼Just one drink a day (10g of alcohol) raised breast cancer risk by 11%.
👉🏼For postmenopausal women drinking two drinks a day (20g), the risk jumped to 23%.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀:
👉🏼Alcohol raises estrogen, impairs liver detox, and produces carcinogens like acetaldehyde. That combination increases risk especially in women already navigating hormonal shifts.

❌ Wine had the clearest risk, but no form of alcohol was shown to be protective.

This isn’t about fear. It’s about giving you the facts so you can make informed choices especially if you’re managing burnout, hormone symptoms, or perimenopause.

👑 October is 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗽𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 and it’s time we stop treating bladder leaks as “just part of getting older.”

❌ 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 (𝗦𝗨𝗜) leaking when you laugh, sneeze, or exercise affects millions of postmenopausal women. But new research is pointing to a game-changing, 𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝘃𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗛𝗘𝗔.

📚A 2024 study published in Maturitas found that 6.5mg/day of vaginal DHEA over 12 weeks led to:

🔹 Fewer leaks from stress incontinence
🔹 Stronger pelvic floor muscle tone
🔹 Improved quality of life scores
🔹 Tissue support through estrogen and androgen activation
🔹 Restored function not just hydration

💪🏼 DHEA works by stimulating both estrogen and androgen receptors in the vaginal and urethral tissues rebuilding the foundation, not just patching symptoms.

➡️ If you’re still leaking despite pelvic floor work or estrogen, this could be the missing link.

Let’s change the narrative. SUI is common but it’s not inevitable. You deserve options that work.

𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗜 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗩𝗮𝗴 𝗥𝗲𝗷𝘂𝘃 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺:

-Pelvic PT
-Pelvic Neural therapy
-Systemic HRT

🔑Menopause is natural, however, bladder leaks don’t have to be, save this post and lets discuss at your next appointment!
