Why Is Everyone Talking About Peptides?

June 23, 2026 · 56 min

Show notes

Injectable peptides are generating huge interest online and offline - but how much do we actually know about them?

Sports Medicine Physician and former Chief Medical Officer of the Melbourne Storm, Dr Jason Chan, unpacks BPC-157, GHK-Cu and Epitalon. We discuss the role social media has played in driving interest, Australia's regulatory landscape, the risks of unregulated products, and what the research currently tells us.

Interested in GLP-1 medications and peptides? Listen to our episode GLP-1s: The Hype, the Fear, and What the Science Actually Says with Dr Ryan De Cruz.
