What is Peptide Therapy?
A peptide is a short chain of amino acids that are linked together and can be thought of as a small protein. To date, over 7,000 naturally-occurring peptides have been identified.
In our bodies, these small proteins typically act as signaling molecules. They bind to receptors on the cell surface and tell other cells and molecules what to do.
Most of these peptide drugs are administered via subcutaneous injections, but can also come in the form of transdermal creams, nasal sprays, and oral tablets.
Would you benefit from Peptide Therapy?
Peptide therapy encompasses numerous different drugs with varied effects, ranging from immune support and tissue repair to fat loss and muscle building. The therapeutic benefits of Peptide Therapy will depend on the protocol you follow and the goals you wish to achieve. Peptide protocol and combinations are individualized to each person.
Some benefits of peptides include:
- Muscle building
- Immune support
- Sexual health
- Weight loss
- Improved memory
- Improved learning and focus
- Sleep improvement
- Improved mitochondrial function
- Cellular repair and regeneration
- Improved endurance and athletic capability
