Dr Mike Varshavski warns on IV therapy and unregulated peptides

On Fox & Friends Wellness Week, the New Jersey family physician said IV drips for general wellness lack proven benefits and can cause vitamin imbalance and toxicity.
He challenged clinic claims that NAD clears brain fog and has no side effects, warning fat-soluble vitamins can accumulate and high vitamin B levels have been linked to higher cancer risk.
Varshavski contrasted those products with creatine, which he said has evidence for explosive movement, while cautioning many injectable peptides are FDA-unregulated and may be black-market substances sold for research use only.

With the FDA reconsidering peptide restrictions, will 'bio-hacking' soon become a regulated part of mainstream medicine?
Dr. Mike debunks wellness fads, but can evidence-based science win against the multi-trillion dollar 'Big Wellness' industry?
