- Description
- The peptide craze has taken hold with entrepreneurs and executives hoping to further optimize their performance in all aspects of life — and maybe live forever, while they’re at it.

Inc. senior writer Sam Blum dove into the brave new world of peptides and joined 1 Smart Business Story host Ali Donaldson to share his findings.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
