Peptides are flooding social media, locker rooms, and doctors’ offices, but is the research actually keeping pace?
In this season three premiere of Smart Medicine, Dr. Scott Sigman sits down with Dr. James Voos, orthopedic surgeon and NFL team physician for the Cleveland Browns, for a myth-busting conversation on sports medicine’s most hyped trend. Dr. Voos breaks down what peptides are and why the buzz around these injectables has run far ahead of the clinical evidence. He shares what his own research team uncovered when they went searching for data on peptide BPC-157’s performance; what they discovered created more questions than answers. Dr. Voos closes with his verdict and a clear answer on where patients and athletes should really be directing their attention while the peptide research rolls in.
