What if your symptoms aren’t random but signals asking for better inputs? We sit down with Dr. Alexandra Geyer, an emergency physician turned metabolic health expert, to map a clear route from “normal labs” to real recovery. Her story of hitting a wall during residency and rebuilding health informs a practical, hopeful framework that blends advanced diagnostics, evidence-backed peptides, and everyday habits that actually stick.

Dr. Geyer explains why metabolic health is the engine for energy, mood, sleep, and longevity, and how to measure it beyond the scale.  We then widen the lens to hormone health, including free T3 and thyroid antibodies to catch early Hashimoto’s, plus sex hormones that determine drive and resilience. The message is simple: when you fix the signals, action feels possible again.

Peptides step in as precision tools, not magic bullets. You’ll hear how BPC-157 calms inflammation and supports tissue repair so movement stops hurting; how Selank and Semax lower neuroinflammation, lift BDNF, and restore calm focus; and how Pinealon can reset circadian rhythm with a short, yearly cycle. Safety comes first: no black-market sourcing, strict sterility and purity testing, and clear contraindications for cancer and pregnancy. We also dive into gut microbiome testing to address stubborn symptoms and the role of micronutrients when convenience foods drain capacity.

By the end, you’ll have a grounded plan: build lean muscle, favor whole foods that don’t hijack appetite, test what matters, repair the gut, and use targeted peptides to amplify the good habits you’re already trying to keep.
