In this new episode of Bathroom Diaries, I sit down with Dr. Rob Frankel, emergency physician, anti-aging specialist, and host of the Modern Man Podcast, for an honest, science-forward conversation about one of the most talked-about tools in modern longevity: peptides.

But this isn't hype.

This episode goes beyond TikTok trends and biohacking buzzwords. We unpack what peptides actually are, how they work inside the body, who should (and should not) be using them, and why precision and medical integrity matter more than ever in this space.

Dr. Frankel explains peptides as "text messages" to your cells, signals that enhance your body's own intelligence rather than override it. We explore where peptide therapy shows real promise, where caution is essential, and how innovation can coexist with responsibility.

In this episode, we talk about:

* What peptides really do at a cellular level
* The difference between enhancement vs. "sledgehammer" medicine
* GLP-1s, Tesamorelin, BPC-157, NAD, GHK Copper & more
* Peptides for metabolism, recovery, cognition, skin & longevity
* Why not every body is a candidate
* The danger of self-prescribing from the internet
* How peptides fit into a whole-body, intelligent aging strategy

This conversation is for anyone curious about longevity, aesthetics, metabolic health, and the future of personalized medicine, without the smoke and mirrors.

Because aging well isn't about chasing trends.
It's about understanding your biology and guiding it wisely.

I've been thinking a lot about gratitude lately — not as a feel-good exercise, but as something more precise. Almost like a pause in time. A moment that interrupts the constant stream of bad news, burnout, and fear around health, and lets us notice where things are actually shifting in a better direction.

Medicine in 2025 is far from perfect. Systems are strained, people are tired, and trust has been shaken. And yet, when I step back and look honestly at what's changing, I see real reasons to be grateful. Not naïve optimism — but grounded hope rooted in science, access, and a slow return to common sense.

Join Dr. Din from Juvanni for a powerful, unfiltered 1-hour deep dive into longevity, anti-aging, menopause, GLP-1 agonists, hair restoration, skin health, and the science behind beauty. This episode of Bathroom Diaries blends medical science, storytelling, humor, and real-world clinical insights—all designed to help you understand your body, your hormones, and your aging process with clarity and confidence.

Welcome to Bathroom Diaries Part 3 with Dr. Sofia Din — a raw, honest, and science-backed conversation about beauty, aging, and the rituals that keep you young. 💫 In this episode, Dr. Din dives deep into what really happens when you face yourself in the mirror — beyond filters, beyond makeup. From the holy grail of skincare (Vitamin C CE Ferulic) to the truth about Botox, menopause, and body dysmorphia, she breaks down the science of self-perception and longevity in a way only she can.

✨ New Podcast Feature: "The Science Behind GLP-1s, Metabolism & Modern Longevity" ✨

I recently sat down with Richard Jacobs on the Finding Genius podcast for a powerful conversation about one of today's most fascinating medical breakthroughs — GLP-1 agonists (you may know them as Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro).

But this isn't your typical "weight-loss chat."

In this episode, we dig into what these medications are truly doing at a metabolic, hormonal, and cellular level — and why their benefits extend far beyond the scale. I break down how GLP-1s communicate with the brain–gut axis, influence inflammation, and even support skin rejuvenation, collagen preservation, and healthy aging.

We talked about:

• How GLP-1s actually work inside the body (beyond appetite control)

• The surprising connection between metabolic health, inflammation, and visible aging

• Why some patients thrive on GLP-1s while others struggle — and what labs can reveal

• What the media gets wrong about "weight-loss injections"

• How beauty, longevity, and metabolic medicine intersect

• The future of GLP-1 therapies for skin, brain aging, and women's health

This conversation is packed with practical, science-based insights you can use right now to understand your metabolism more clearly — and take intentional control of your long-term health, beauty, and vitality.

✨ New Podcast Feature: "Women's Health, Discussing the Pauses" ✨

Menopause isn't a malfunction — it's a metabolic, hormonal, and cellular transition that most women are never properly educated about.
On the Functionally Autoimmune podcast with Brandi Muilenburg, I break down what REALLY happens during the pauses of a woman's life… and why so many symptoms get dismissed as "normal."

We talked about:
* How to read the early warning signs of hormonal decline
* Why gut health, inflammation, and aging skin are all connected
* Why women are misdiagnosed or ignored during menopause
* How beauty, longevity, and functional medicine intersect
* What labs actually reveal when the body is slowing down

This conversation is packed with practical insights women can use right now to understand their bodies more clearly and take back control of their health and beauty.
