The Knowledge And Mileage Podcast

Peptides are everywhere right now, but most people don't actually understand how they work or how to use them intelligently. That's why I wanted to sit down with Kyal Van Der Leest, founder of LVLUP Health, to cut through the noise and talk about what really matters if you care about performance, longevity, and staying sharp. In this episode, we get into oral peptides and why some work while others never will, the truth about SLU-PP-332 and exercise mimetics, and how gut health quietly drives hormones, inflammation, and recovery. We also talk about fat loss without stimulants, brain performance without frying your nervous system, and how to mitigate real life stress like travel, alcohol, and poor sleep without blowing up your progress. Kyal shares his background in nutrition and naturopathy, how peptides changed his approach to health, and why nuance always beats hype. If you want tools that actually move the needle, this episode will help you think more clearly about what you're using and why. LVLUP: Head ov
