Peptides are all over the internet right now, and the headline is everywhere: the government voted, so they must be legal. In this episode, Rick Sorensen and Greg Camp separate what actually happened from what is being sold to you.

When the FDA's Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee met this past July to consider seven peptides, the agency's own scientists had already recommended rejecting every one of them. The panel voted the other way six times in a row, on a committee that had been reconstituted just weeks earlier. Rick and Greg explain what that vote really means, why nothing has legally changed, and why the approval road ahead is still one to two years long at best. They also look hard at the science behind popular peptides like BPC-157, and at what forensic testing has found inside products bought from unregulated sources.

In this episode:

• What the July FDA committee vote actually did, and why peptides are still not legal to compound
• A plain-English explanation of what peptides are and how compounding approval works
• Why the FDA's own scientists recommended no on all seven
• What the human evidence behind BPC-157 really shows
• What forensic testing found in seized, unregulated peptides
• What this means for patients, prescribers, and athletes

If peptides are on your radar, this is a practical, science-first, judgment-free guide to where things really stand.
