Salmon DNA vs Copper Peptides: What’s Behind the Serum Hype?
Does the science match the serum—or just the ingredient’s reputation? In this episode of Trend Talk, we explore PDRN, often called “salmon sperm” skincare, and copper peptides. Holistic pharmacist Larry Pham shares his takeaway from reviewing skincare research: consider the complete formula, how it’s delivered, and whether the evidence supports the finished product. Discover why injection research doesn’t automatically translate to topical results, why molecular size alone doesn’t prove effectiveness, and how a serum’s base can influence its fit for your skin.

Fasting at Work: Healthy Habit or Just a Busy Shift?
Fasting at Work: Healthy Habit or Just a Busy Shift? Going six or seven hours without eating—is that intermittent fasting, or simply how your workday unfolds? In this episode of Trend Talk, holistic pharmacist Larry Pham shares his experience navigating meals during 11-hour pharmacy shifts. He discusses why he sometimes waits to eat, how he feels overall, and why normal blood work doesn’t prove fasting caused those results. We explore the difference between planned fasting and long gaps between meals, practical food options for busy shifts, and medication considerations before changing your eating schedule.

GLP-1 Weight Loss: Protein, Hunger & Late-Night Cravings
GLP-1 medications may reduce appetite—but what happens when the urge to snack at night is still there? In this episode of Trend Talk, we asked holistic pharmacist Larry what he considers most important while navigating reduced appetite on a GLP-1. His first priority: protein. When you are eating less, making protein a priority can help support lean muscle and make the food you do eat more intentional. But Larry also points to something that is easy to overlook: late-night cravings may not always come from physical hunger. Sometimes the mind still expects the familiar routine of an evening snack—even when the stomach isn’t asking for food. The question becomes: Are you actually hungry, or are you responding to a habit or craving? We discuss why protein deserves attention during the day and why recognizing the difference between physical hunger and a mental urge to snack can be an important part of changing your routine. 🎙️ Trend Talk is a pharmacist-led wellness series from LL Wellness, brought to you by LL Supplement®.

Did Your Antidepressant Cause Weight Gain?
Visit LLSupplement today Can antidepressants cause weight gain? Weight gain is one of the most common concerns people have when starting an antidepressant. While some medications may contribute to weight changes, it’s often not because they directly create body fat. Increased appetite, cravings, fatigue, reduced physical activity, and appetite returning as depression improves can all play a role. In this episode, holistic pharmacist Larry Pham explains why weight gain can happen, why you should never stop an antidepressant without medical guidance, and practical strategies that may help—including eating more protein and fiber, reducing late-night snacking, adding daily movement, and working with your pharmacist or prescriber if weight becomes a concern. This episode also introduces the LL Wellness approach: simple, sustainable habits through Eatwell and Livewell that support long-term health alongside your prescribed treatment. Key Takeaways Not all antidepressants have the same effect on weight. Appetite, cravings, and fatigue often contribute more than the medication itself. Don’t stop your medication without speaking to your healthcare provider. Small lifestyle changes can make a meaningful difference. Your mental health and physical health deserve equal attention.
