In this episode of Your Wise Self with Sara, I sit down with Dr. Mark Sherwood and Dr. Michelle Sherwood, the Real Longevity Doctors and co-founders of the Functional Medical Institute in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Together they've helped over 25,000 patients reverse chronic disease and reclaim their health through a whole-person, root-cause approach.

We go somewhere brand new on the show today - peptides. If you've been hearing that word and wondering what it actually means, this conversation is for you.

We cover:

• What peptides are and how they work as signaling molecules in the body
• Specific peptides for sleep, muscle retention, mitochondrial health, skin, hair, and more
• How peptides differ from hormone replacement therapy
• Bio regulators — the tiny oral peptides that may help preserve organ function and reverse biological aging
• The truth about GLP-1s (yes, Ozempic is a peptide!) and how to use them wisely
• Why you can't "peptide away" a bad foundation — and what to build first
• Their upcoming book Authentic Longevity (coming June 2026)
• We also cover red light therapy!

Whether you're navigating perimenopause, dealing with fatigue and brain fog, or simply wanting to live younger, stronger, and longer - this episode will open your eyes to what's possible.
