In this episode, we break down exactly what bloodwork to pull before starting a peptide or performance protocol and what to check after to make sure it’s actually working. You’ll learn how to establish a solid baseline, which core labs matter most, and how to interpret your results so you’re not just guessing—you’re making data-driven decisions. We walk through hormones, metabolic markers, inflammation, organ function, and more, along with timing your labs and spotting red flags or unintended effects. If you want to optimize your results, protect your health, and truly understand what your body is doing, this episode is a must-listen.
