The FIT Woman Podcast Episode 13: Peptides: What You Need to Know

Peptides are everywhere right now - but what are they really, and how do you know if they’re right for you?

In this eye-opening episode, Tania is joined by Mandy White Eskelin, retired celebrity trainer, holistic nutrition expert, and gut health specialist, to break down the truth about peptides and their role in midlife health, metabolism, and body transformation.

Now 50 and a mother of two, Mandy brings both lived experience and deep expertise to this conversation. After years in the fitness industry and her own evolution through midlife, she is passionate about helping women biohack their bodies, reignite confidence, and restore metabolic function in a way that actually supports hormones - not stressing them further.

Together, Tania and Mandy cut through the noise and explain peptides in a clear, grounded, and practical way so women can make informed decisions instead of chasing trends.

In this episode, you’ll hear them discuss:

• What peptides are and how they work in the body
  
• Why peptides are gaining traction for midlife women
  
• The difference between hype and evidence-based use
  
• How peptides can support metabolism, muscle, recovery, and fat loss
  
• The importance of gut health and nutrition alongside peptides
  
• Who peptides may be helpful for — and who should slow down
  
• Why peptides are a tool, not a magic fix

This episode is a must-listen if you’ve been curious about peptides but overwhelmed by conflicting information or social media promises.

Hormone balance, gut health, and nutrition must come first.
Midlife bodies need smarter strategies, not more extremes.
Biohacking works best when it supports the nervous system.
