Amanda Soukoulis joins me to talk about how her health unraveled in her 20s despite elite training and a clean diet, and what it took to rebuild it. We talk about gut dysfunction, mold exposure, and chronic stress, and why a “normal” lab result doesn’t always tell the full story.
We also get into hormones, dietary fat, sleep, and where peptides like Epitalon, VIP, BPC-157, TB-500, and MOTS-c fit once the foundation is in place. Amanda explains why peptides amplify the environment they enter, why the order of healing matters, and why working with a provider is important.
Topics We Cover in This Episode:
- Why “normal” and “optimal” lab ranges aren’t the same thing
- What a health breakdown can look like in your 20s
- How physical, emotional, dietary, and environmental stress add up
- Why detox pathways and gut health come before a mold protocol
- The many ways mold exposure can show up in the body
- Why peptides only amplify the environment they enter
- How to think about layering and stacking peptides
- Why reputable sources and a monitoring provider matter
