Episode Description
In this episode, Tina is joined once again by integrative practitioner Curtis Gillespie Sayers to explore the role of peptides in managing ulcerative colitis (UC) and other autoimmune conditions. Curtis shares his expertise on how specific peptides can help reduce inflammation, support immune balance, and improve mitochondrial function. Together, they discuss why optimizing mitochondrial health is essential in UC management and outline practical considerations for incorporating peptides into a personalized healing plan. The conversation also covers potential side effects, the importance of individualized protocols, and why professional guidance is key for safe and effective use.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
- How peptides fit into the bigger picture of gut and immune system healing
- The key immune-supportive peptides that can calm inflammation
- Which peptides may help during a flare and how to use them safely
- The best peptides for chronic, stubborn inflammation
- The "Wolverine Stack"—what it is and why it’s considered a powerful combo
- BPC-157: injection vs capsule—what’s the difference?
- A suggested order for introducing peptides into a UC healing plan
- How mitochondria and the cell danger response play into UC recovery
- Oral glutathione vs injection—what’s most effective?
- Why peptides often work better than supplements for true cellular repair

About Curtis Gillespie Sayers:
From a young age I was in and out of the hospital suffering from health complications for as long as I can remember, breathing difficulties being the most apparent but as I grew older more serious issues began to come to light. I was diagnosed with an extremely severe case of sleep apnea, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and a pre-diabetic status. At this time, I was also struggling with substance abuse, which would obviously contribute to my health complications, but most were from birth. After receiving the news from running tests, the doctors had informed me that I was lucky to be alive.
My psychological health was greatly impacted by my physiological health, evoking feelings of anger, and negativity which caused me to constantly argue with people around me. This affected several of my relationships and was creating a miserable life.
This lead me to seek out the help of a bodybuilding coach (not knowing a damn thing about health at the time). The main focus was “getting shredded,” not understanding how much internal health affects one’s physique. Interestingly enough, shedding the weight had really helped with my sleep apnea, but still, quite a few health complications were present. At this time hunger was ignited in me to learn more. I became determined to solve what was going on in my body.
I decided to acquire my first nutrition certification through the ISSA (International Sports Science Association).
