I am Dr. Wayne Cissell, DC. Twenty-five years in practice. I used to weigh 240. I wrote this so you understand peptides before anyone sells you a vial. This is a book, not a protocol. It will not tell you what to inject, where to buy it, or that a committee vote means the FDA approved it. It will tell you what a peptide actually is, how compounding is different from an approved drug, how to read a claim, and how to walk out of a clinic that is selling you certainty. Included with the book (free, in the same download): • Dr. Wayne Cissell’s 12-Week Barbell Program for GLP-1 Patients — three days a week under the bar so the weight you lose is not as much muscle as it could have been. • Dr. Wayne Cissell’s 12-Week Nutrition Program for GLP-1 Patients — protein, smaller meals, what to do when nausea shows up. Not a crash diet stacked on a drug that already cuts appetite. Those two programs are for people already prescribed a GLP-1 by a licensed clinician (semaglutide, tirzepatide, or similar). They are not a way to get the medication and not a promise about the scale. You get one zip with three PDFs, instantly. Who this is for Men (and anyone) who want straight talk before they spend money. Patients already on a GLP-1 who need a lifting and food plan that does not wreck them. People tired of “research chemical” internet. Who this is not for Anyone looking for a dosing protocol, a vendor list, or a guaranteed body. If your plan requires being miserable, it is not a plan. It is a relapse. This is education. Not medical advice. Not a prescription. Not an ad for any drug or pharmacy. Recheck with a licensed clinician who can examine you. Results vary. No typical-results claims.
