Peptide Therapy

Peptide therapy is a medical treatment that involves the use of specific peptides to achieve therapeutic effects. Peptides are short chains of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. These chains can function as signaling molecules in the body, influencing various biological processes.

Peptide therapy leverages the biological activity of peptides to address various health issues, from anti-aging and body composition to muscle repair and neurocognitive enhancement.

Injectable Peptides

Injectable peptides are a common form of peptide therapy. They are administered through injections to ensure direct and efficient delivery into the bloodstream. This method allows for precise dosing and quicker absorption, which can be crucial for managing specific health conditions or achieving desired therapeutic effects.

Oral Peptides

Oral peptides are formulated to survive the digestive process and be absorbed in a way that still allows them to exert their therapeutic effects. This form of delivery is convenient and less invasive than injections, making it more appealing for long-term use.

In the quest for a longer, healthier life, peptide therapy has emerged as a revolutionary approach within functional medicine.

Peptides, which are small chains of amino acids, act as signaling molecules in the body, guiding various physiological processes. As we age, these processes often slow down or become less efficient, leading to a potential decline in overall health and vitality. Peptide therapy aims to restore balance and function, targeting the root causes of aging to help increase longevity.

What We Treat

Neurocognitive Function: Peptides in this category support brain health, improving cognitive function, memory, and neural regeneration. These are used to enhance focus, mental clarity, and to protect against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

  • Selank
  • Semax
  • DHH-B (Supplement)
  • Pinealon

Gut Health: Peptides in this category are used to promote gut healing, reduce inflammation, and repair the gut lining. These peptides can help manage conditions like leaky gut, IBS, and Crohn’s disease by improving mucosal integrity and reducing oxidative stress.

  • Larazotide
  • Guttides (Supplement)

Body Composition: peptides in this category are popular for fat loss, muscle gain, and overall body recomposition. They work by stimulating growth hormone release, which helps burn fat and build lean muscle mass.

  • Semaglutide
  • Tirzepatide
  • Tesofensine
  • Cagrilinitide
  • 5-Amino
  • Sermorelin
  • Tesamorelin
  • SS-31

Regenerative Health: Peptides in this category can be used for tissue repair and wound healing. They stimulate collagen production, tissue regeneration, and reduce inflammation, aiding recovery from injuries, surgeries, or chronic conditions.

  • GHK-cu
  • TB4
  • BPC-157 (Supplement)

Cellular Health: Peptides in this category support cellular health by enhancing immune function and promoting telomere repair, which is linked to longevity. These peptides play a role in slowing down the aging process at the cellular level.

  • Pinealon

Sexual Health: Peptides in this category are commonly used for enhancing libido and improving sexual function in both men and women. Can help activate the melanocortin receptors in the brain to increase sexual desire, unlike traditional erectile dysfunction medications that focus more on blood flow.

  • Oxytocin
  • PT-141
