Hormone optimization clinics Optimization clinics keep pushing broad symptom treatment with hormones, peptides, and add-on lab packages that sound more definitive than they are. Cortisol and adrenal support products Fatigue, burnout, and poor sleep still get turned into adrenal-support supplement routines even when the real problem may be elsewhere. Microdosing metabolic drugs Low-dose semaglutide and similar ideas keep getting sold as the middle ground between full treatment and lifestyle-only approaches.
