Peptides are everywhere in today’s wellness conversations—but what are they really, and how do they actually work in the body?

In this Wellness Illuminated episode of Light Body Radio, Dr. Lara May demystifies peptides by cutting through the noise, misinformation, and overhyped claims. Rather than presenting peptides as a quick fix or biohacking trend, this conversation reframes them as what they truly are: intelligent cellular messengers that support communication within the body.

This episode explores how peptides function within biology, why they’ve become so misunderstood, and how they can be used thoughtfully and ethically within a holistic healing framework. You’ll learn the difference between forcing change versus supporting the body’s innate intelligence—and why healing is about signaling, not fixing.

If you’ve been curious about peptides but overwhelmed by conflicting information, this episode offers clarity, context, and grounded insight.
