But

There are a lot of peptides that are super useful here as well, right?

So if you have somebody who has declining cognitive function and you've got their hormones good, and I always would encourage everybody, you have to make sure your micronutrients are good as well because if you're lacking B12 and folate and B6 and magnesium, again, those become a base.

So I do recommend everybody has like an intracellular nutrient panel.

They know what the nutrients are that they're lacking.

But then how can we use peptides?

Because peptides can be really sort of helpful for the brain.

And if you look at cognitive decline, the primary reason for it is neuroinflammation.

So every disease across the board, be it Alzheimer's, be it Parkinson's, be it depression or anxiety, those are all neuroinflammatory diseases.

The brain is inflamed.

So if you are, you know, if you have, it's why we're seeing a lot of brain dysfunction post-COVID is we're seeing a lot of people in a chronic inflammatory state, chronic viral states.

The brain starts to get chronically inflamed and that creates ongoing cognitive loss.

So how do we get rid of the inflammation in the brain?

Hepatitis do that a little bit, like progesterone helps for that for both men and women.

But peptides are really hugely beneficial here.

And there's a couple of peptides that we really like for that.

One is called C-Link.

It's a Russian peptide.

So it came from Cavinson's lab.

So it's kind of considered what's called a bioregulator peptide.
