In this session of The Stone Protocol, we explore Cagrilintide, an amylin based peptide that is quickly becoming one of the most effective tools for appetite regulation and metabolic health. While many are familiar with GLP-1s, Cagrilintide operates on a separate biological pathway to provide a more powerful and comprehensive solution for those struggling with "food noise" and body composition goa...

Welcome back to The Stone Protocol. Today we are diving into what is lovingly called the Wolverine Stack: the combination of BPC 157 and TB 500. While these peptides do not actually grow claws, their impact on the body’s healing factor is truly fantastic. By attacking tissue repair from two complementary angles, this stack acts as a force multiplier for recovery. What is the Wolverine Stack? The W...

In this overview, we explore MOTS-c, a mitochondrial derived peptide that acts as a primary metabolic support tool. Often referred to as "Matzi" or "MC" in the community, this peptide is designed to uplevel your cellular powerhouse, potentially returning your energy signaling to the levels you experienced in your 20s. What is MOTS-c? MOTS-c is a unique peptide encoded within the mitochondrial geno...

In this episode of The Stone Protocol, we are diving into one of my favorite peptide combinations for total body recovery: CJC 1295 (No DAC) and Ipamorelin. Unlike synthetic growth hormone, these "secretagogues" encourage your own pituitary gland to produce and release its own human growth hormone (HGH). This allows you to leverage your body’s natural rhythms for healing, fat loss, and muscle grow...

Welcome back to The Stone Protocol. Today we are highlighting a tool that I put on the same tier as Creatine: Injectable L-Carnitine. While Creatine gets all the glory, L-Carnitine is a foundational amino acid that serves as the primary shuttle for fat metabolism and mitochondrial energy production. If you are serious about body composition and performance, this belongs in your protocol. The Bioav...

In this episode of The Stone Protocol, we are breaking down the KLOW Blend, one of my personal favorite peptide combinations. While many people start with individual peptides, this specific blend acts as a force multiplier by combining four high performance molecules into one protocol. Whether you are recovering from an injury or looking to counterbalance the natural aging process, the KLOW blend...

In this overview, we explore Glutathione, often referred to as the "Master Antioxidant." While many antioxidants provide cellular support, Glutathione is the primary molecule responsible for liver detoxification and protecting your system from the oxidative stress caused by high intensity training. What is Glutathione? Glutathione is the most potent antioxidant produced by the body. It is found in...

In this overview, we explore NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide), a powerhouse molecule essential for cellular energy and longevity. While often discussed alongside mitochondrial peptides like MOTS-c, NAD+ works through unique internal pathways to "rewire" the cell, ensuring that your biological battery stays charged as you age. What is NAD+? NAD+ is a coenzyme found in all living cells. It a...

In this overview, we explore the mechanics of Retatrutide—the next generation of metabolic peptides. While earlier tools hit one or two pathways, Retatrutide targets three distinct biological "currents" to optimize how your body processes fuel, manages hunger, and burns stored fat. What is Retatrutide? Retatrutide is a Triple Agonist that hits three specific axes in the body. By activating these r...
