EP. 178: The Truth About Metabolic Health, Childhood Obesity, And GLP-1’s Powerful Impact | Jim LaValle

In this episode of The Dr. Tyna Show, I'm thrilled to sit down with the legendary Jim LaValle, widely regarded as the OG of cellular medicine, peptides, and metabolic health. We dove deep into the current state of metabolic health, the impact of metabolic compromise across generations, and the revolutionary potential of GLP-1s. This conversation is a must-listen!. Jim and I discuss the science behind peptides, including their role in treating metabolic dysfunction and childhood obesity, and why microdosing is becoming a game-changer in functional medicine. We also discuss the state of peptide access, affordability, and how we can heal from within. This interview truly blew my mind—it's one of my favorite discussions yet, and I can't wait for you to hear it!
