    The Truth About Ozempic, Banned Peptides & What Actually Works: Dr Ula Heywood

    The Truth About Ozempic, Banned Peptides & What Actually Works: Dr Ula Heywood

    July 5, 2026
    1h 12m

    Right now, peptides are everywhere: They’re being talked about on podcasts, on TikTok and Instagram, in gyms, and maybe a few WhatsApp groups you’re in as well.


    So, I asked Dr Ula Heywood to come in and explain it all in normal-person language.


    + What actually is a peptide?


    + Why has this become such a huge trend?


    + What is available legally in New Zealand?


    + What are people buying online that they maybe shouldn’t be?


    + We also talk about weight loss medications, the rise of wearables, creatine, collagen, morning routines, and why sometimes the best health advice is still the most boring advice.


    If, like me, you had a lot of questions about Peptides but didn’t know where to start- this episode will hopefully be really helpful.

    Massive thanks to my long‑term podcast sponsor, Generate. 

    If, like me, longevity is something you are curious about, then the financial side of living longer is also something you need to take seriously.

    I had a chat with a Generate KiwiSaver adviser when they came on as sponsor, and it genuinely gave me clarity on what it means to have a KiwiSaver plan, and whether mine was actually set up to perform over the long-term.  

    Generate is an award‑winning KiwiSaver provider with a strong track record of long‑term performance.

    You can check out their latest returns online, or book a no‑obligation chat with one of their advisers at generatekiwisaver.co.nz/dom. 

    No pressure, no hard sell, no judgment. Just clear advice to help you feel confident you’re on track. I promise you will not regret doing it- there is a good reason Generate won Consumer NZs Peoples Choice Award for the 6th time.


    The issuer of the scheme is Generate Investment Management Limited. To see their PDS and Financial Advice Provider info see generatekiwisaver.co.nz/disclosures. Past performance does not guarantee future returns. 


    And remember, I’m not a financial adviser, so this is just general information. I recommend getting expert advice before making any financial

    decisions.
