| 0:00.0 | What is a peptide? Like, what makes the difference between a peptide and a supplement? |
| 0:04.7 | The definition of a peptide is going to be a chain of amino acids. The FDA at one point decided to |
| 0:11.3 | make a quantitative value of any peptide that's greater than 40 amino acids they're going to call |
| 0:17.8 | a biologic. Actually, I disagree with that definition. Insulin's |
| 0:21.0 | a peptide. All the GLP-1s are peptide. Do you think we're at a place or are we anywhere close to |
| 0:27.0 | be able to make peptides orally as bioavailable as the ones you inject? We're sort of there |
| 0:33.0 | already. The problem that I see with that is that our bodies are designed to break down proteins |
| 0:38.4 | and peptides. So sometimes it's just easier just to inject it than it is to like, you know, try to |
| 0:42.7 | stomach it. You almost always have better bioavailability through injection. I mean, with IV, |
| 0:46.9 | you're literally putting the drug in the bloodstreams. Are these drugs within a category where people |
| 0:51.6 | can just like start and stop whenever they like. |
| 0:54.3 | Yeah, so you have that start and stop, and then some people stop and they're fine. |
| 0:57.6 | All right, Justin Kirkland, thank you so much for your time today. We really appreciate it. |
| 1:01.0 | Yeah, thanks for having me. |
| 1:02.6 | Let's just get ready to it. What is a peptide? Like, what makes the difference between a peptide and a supplement? |
| 1:08.3 | What's that line that's divided between those two? |
| 1:11.5 | Yeah. So technically speaking, the definition of a peptide is going to be a chain of amino acids. |
| 1:18.6 | So anytime you have two amino acids connected, that's going to be your peptide. |
| 1:24.5 | When peptides get to be much longer and more complex and folded, we typically consider those to be called proteins. And something that we might talk about today is that the FDA at one point, in the past few years, decided to make a quantitative value of any peptide that's greater than 40 amino acids, |
| 1:47.8 | they're going to call a biologic. |
| 1:50.2 | I don't necessarily, actually, I disagree with that definition in the sense that there are |
| 1:55.3 | peptides that can be manufactured by engineering a bacteria to produce them or something |
