E. 193 Top 5 Gratitude list in medicine and healthcare

Bathroom Diaries w. Dr Sofia Din

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...

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.
