Does Retatrutide completely change how fasting works? And are most people using GLP-1 peptides the wrong way?
In Episode 8 of Pep-Talk, Max Plasencia and Mike Sheffer dive deep into the science behind GLP-1 peptides, fasting, longevity, and anti-aging optimization — including powerful compounds like Tesamorelin, Epitalon, FOXO4-DRI, SS31, and MOTS-C.
We break down why so many people fail with GLP-1 protocols, how Retatrutide impacts fasting and metabolism, and how to build smarter peptide stacks for long-term fat loss, performance, and longevity.
