5 sessions, 1 quick read

There's more to keep up with than ever.

Patients arrive with questions about peptides, NAD+, and hormones. Regulations keep shifting. And some of the most useful clinical insight is buried in hour-long sessions you don’t have time to watch.

So we went through five sessions from Southend’s Speaker Series and pulled out the takeaways most worth bringing back to your practice.

Written for

Providers fielding patient questions about peptides, NAD+, or hormones

Practices offering longevity, functional, or hormone care

Clinic owners evaluating where their compounded medications come from

Five experts. One thing each wants you to know.

01

The Evolving Peptide Landscape

James LaValle, RPh, CCN

Co-chair of A4M, board member of the Peptide Society

Why a committee recommendation isn't a final rule, and what a for-human-use certificate of assay should show.

02

Stress and Mitochondrial Function

Dr. Pamela Smith, MD, MPH

Nearly three decades in functional medicine

Why fasting glucose and insulin belong in the stress conversation.

03

Epigenetics, Methylation and Metabolic Balance

Dr. Diane Ginsburg, OB-GYN

35 years in OB-GYN, about 20 in functional medicine

Why abnormal hormone labs in a 30-year-old usually point somewhere else first.

04

NAD+ and Sermorelin: Clinical Applications

Dr. Willie Villarreal, DNP

10+ years in integrative private practice

How he screens patients before starting, and which marker he relies on when assessing the GH axis.

05

Fireside Chat: Compounding and the Future of Care

Gloria Vanderham

Question 2

At what point in a patient's journey does the compounding conversation happen in your practice?

Question 3

Question 4

On methylation

Question 5

On the GH axis

The other three, on stress, methylation, and the GH axis, are inside. Send me all five
