PEPTIDE Therapy

A natural way to replace the body's hormones as you age

Peptide therapy is a newly emerged science that helps the body to perform various functions, whether that be internal or external. Peptides are small proteins comprised of short-chain amino acids that the body uses as hormones and signaling molecules for biological pathways.

These proteins partially control your weight loss, your sexual competence, your muscle and skeletal well-being, and even your digestion processes. Peptide therapy can help the body perform these functions at a higher level.

Although peptide therapy is relatively new, there are dozens of peptides available. We can help you determine which ones can be used to target your personal body challenges, and help you to your appearance, performance, and energy goals.

What ARE peptides?

Peptides are naturally occurring biological molecules. Peptides are composed of amino acids, much like proteins. There are 20 diverse types of amino acids in the human body.

When two or more of these amino acids are combined, a peptide is created. And these “building blocks” of hormones can be used to target specific conditions and stimulate the body to respond in a constructive way. 

Peptides can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including:

  • Weight loss
  • Sex drive and vitality
  • Skin elasticity
  • Cholesterol levels
  • Joint and muscle pain
  • Hormone imbalance
  • Bone thickness
  • Inflammation
  • Mental acuity and focus
  • Muscle tone
  • Tissue repair and healing
  • Wrinkles and fine lines

BPC, or “Body Protecting Compound”, is derived from human gastric juice and is known to heal many types of tissue including muscle, tendon and nerves. This peptide also aids in increasing blood flow to injured areas, protects organs, prevents stomach ulcers and can heal skin burns. BCP 157 can also aid with:

  • Accelerates bone mending
  • Cirrhosis
  • Fatty liver
  • Improves joint well-being
  • Inflammation of the intestinal tract and advance in gut recovery
  • Lessen pain from muscle injuries, tears and other tissue harm
  • Promotes a healthy digestive tract
  • Quicken wound mending and help fortify and mend ligaments, tendons and bones

TB-500 is a synthetic peptide of a naturally occurring healing protein present in almost all human cells. It can be used to promote healing, enhance range of motion in cases of injury, or reduce pain in case of injury by reducing inflammation.

This peptide also helps with:

  • Accelerated healing for wounds.
  • Greater endurance.
  • Greater increase in flexibility.
  • Greater muscle growth through increased strength.
  • Increased hair growth
  • Reduction of acute and/or chronic pain including inflammation.
  • Human Growth Hormone works by stimulating the hypothalamus and pituitary gland to increase human growth hormone in the body. Increasing HGH stimulates muscle hypertrophy. By increasing human growth hormone the body is in a state where it can gain muscle easier and lose fat better. AKA muscle hypertrophy increases metabolism.
  • Helps to regenerate cells and cell reproduction.
  • Helps to maintain, build, and repair healthy tissue
  • HGH can help to speed up healing after, injury, and repair muscle tissue after exercise by allowing amino acids to be transported easier.
  • non selectively mimics the action of melanocortin peptides. These are natural hormones involved with pigmentation, energy homeostasis, sexual functioning, the immune system, inflammation, and the cardiovascular system.
  • can cause dramatic skin darkening in just days by increasing melanin production in the body
  • the drug suppresses appetite which will lead to weightloss
  • Helps the production of testosterone and sperm through acting like the luteinizing hormone
  • Can help increase gonad size and fertility
  • Also helps improve sexual functioning and finishing
  • BPC works by promoting angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels) and has also been shown to inhibit the growth of several tumor lines and may counteract tumor cachexia
  • Helps repair intentional lining, enhancing the guts microbiome and promotes greater balance between the gastrointestinal area, nervous system, and immune system
  • Studies have shown the peptide is effectively accelerates the healing of injury affecting the skin, muscle, ligaments, and tendons through improved blood flow stimulated through BPC-157
  • Decreases blood pressure, increases collagen production, enhance muscular development
  • acts systematically in the digestive tract to help combat leaky gut, IBS, gastrointestinal cramps and Crohn’s disease. BPC-157 protects and prevents gastric ulcers. It can be used to protect liver from toxic damage (alcohol. antibiotics, etc
  • Maintains integrity of mucosa I lining GI tract and protects gut lining
  • Upon entering your body, BPC 157 then promotes tissue repair by activating certain cells that perform these repairs. BPC also promotes the synthesis of nitric oxides, which helps to increase blood flow and decrease muscle soreness.
  • Helps body make red blood cells and keeps nerve cells and your immune system healthy
  • Helps form collagen which is a key part of bone and connective tissue
  • Acts as an anti-oxidant reducing free radicals that can damage cells and DNA, helps the body absorb iron
  • GLP-1 modulator that helps to break down sugar in the body
  • Lowers AlC through helping the pancreas release the right amount of insulin when sugar levels are high
  • It produces the hormone GLP-1 that the body releases with satisfaction. In higher amounts this works with parts of the brain that allows you to feel full and suppresses appetite
  • By stimulating your metabolism natural fat-burning process, your body will trigger the release of fat from the obese fat cells, as well as help decrease the growth of new fat cells.
  • Has a regenerative influence on cartilage and bone repair, especially when combined with BPC-157
  • Natural fragment of human growth hormone that stimulates the pituitary glad to speed up the metabolism naturally
  • TIRZEPITIDE works by making the patient feel full on less food and slowing down the passage of food through the digestive track
  • Tirzepitide works by mimicking the GLP-1 and GIP hormones that are naturally secreted by the intestine after a meal, which prompts insulin secretion
  • GLP-1 produced naturally is broken down rapidly in the body. GLP-1 agonist medications like Tirzepitide work by providing higher concentrations of GLP-1 for prolonged periods of time, which is thought to increase weightloss. In addition, Tirzepitide also works as an agonist of a similar hormone in the body glucose-dependent insulinotrophic polypeptide (GIP), which may provide additional benefit over other GLP-1 medications
  • Tesofensine is an inhibitor of noradrenaline, dopamine and serotonin reuptake that is also reported to indirectly stimulate the cholinergic system although the full details of its pharmacological profile are not widely available.
  • This compound was originally developed for treatment of Alzheimer’s (AD) and Parkinson’s (PD} diseases, but although little efficacy was noted in clinical trials for these indications, persistent weight loss was evident.

This is a protein that is made by the pituitary organ and emitted into the circulatory system. GH creation ascends during youth, tops during pubescence and decreases from middle age and continues to decrease as we age. GH helps protein creation, advances the usage of fat, meddles with the activity of insulin and raises glucose levels. As GH discharge decays accordingly with age, and many age-related changes are comparable to those signs and side effects found in more youthful grown-ups with GH deficiency (AGHD).

At the point when characteristic GH decreases, GH substitution can be utilized to reestablish ideal levels to accomplish increased stamina and bolster health. Be that as it may, taking manufactured GH long haul has likely reactions and well-being dangers including:

  • Tachyphylaxis (diminished reaction and resulting dismissal)
  • Diminished ability to create ones’ own hormone production
  • Swelling due to fluid in the body’s tissues
  • Nerve, muscle and joint pain

In this manner, enhancing the creation and discharge of GH using GH discharging hormones (GHRH) or other GH secretagogues (GHS) can be an incredible expansion to any fitness routine or health program. GHRH and GHS are not just sheltered and more affordable than manufactured GH, there are no symptoms or wellbeing dangers.

Substitution of GH by incitement of GH discharge with GH-discharging hormone (GHRH) or other GH secretagogues (GHS) gives a choice to improve body synthesis, life quality, vigor and state of mind. These normal GH releasers utilize an assortment of amino acids such as glutamine, tyrosine, GABA, arginine and lysine, to deliver or discharge its own GH.

Indications of Growth Hormone decay include:

  • Cognitive impairment
  • Decrease in bone thickness
  • Decrease in muscle
  • Decreased anxiety and depression
  • Decreased body fat
  • Fatigue
  • Growth Hormone benefits include:
  • Improved cholesterol profiles
  • Improved cognition and mental function
  • Improved energy
  • Improved fat burning
  • Improved immune system function
  • Improved quality of sleep
  • Improved sex drive and desire
  • Improved skin elasticity
  • Improved sleep
  • Improved stamina and exercise capacity
  • Improved wound healing
  • Increased bone density
  • Increased fat mass
  • Increased muscle mass and strength

GH likewise raises levels of insulin-like development factor-1 (IGF-1), also called Long R3 IGF-1. This peptide is a synthesized protein and lengthened analogue of human insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). IGF-1 LR3 is more potent than the regular IGF-1. Its purpose is to increase the biological activity of IGF. IGF-1 LR3 functions differently in different types of tissues. IGF-1 LR3 helps fat reduction and makes the muscle more sensitive to insulin’s effects, which can cause an increase of pure muscle weight.

  • Decreases fat vs muscle
  • Increased lean muscle
  • Promotes muscle recovery

This is a peptide of 16 amino acids expressed by a mitochondrial gene. MOTS-c is known to regulate metabolic functions throughout the body, including turning glucose into usable energy. The Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide MOTS-c promotes metabolic homeostasis and reduces obesity and insulin resistance. Mitochondria also play a crucial role in determining metabolic flexibility.

This peptide:

  • Helps prevent osteoporosis
  • Helps regulate mitochondrial energy
  • Helps with weight loss
  • Improves exercise capacity
  • Improves glucose regulation
  • Promotes cell differentiation to form osteoblasts
  • Promotes fatty acid metabolism in the liver
  • Promotes metabolic flexibility and homeostasis
  • Promotes resistance to metabolic stress
  • Protects against age and diet dependent insulin resistance and obesity
  • Tesamorelin binds to the growth hormone-releasing hormone receptors (GHRHr) located in the anterior pituitary gland. This binding stimulates the somatotrophic cells in the pituitary gland to synthesize and secrete growth hormone (GH).
  • Tesamorelin is a synthetic growth hormone releasing hormone analogue used in the treatment of visceral adiposity in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients with lipodystrophy.
  • Tesamorelin activates GHRH receptors in the pituitary which leads to synthesis and release of growth hormone that acts on multiple cells of the body including hepatocytes where it stimulates production of insulin like growth factor-1 {IGF-1)
  • increases production of human growth hormone through the pituitary gland
  • helps decrease visceral fat by upping the pulse of naturally produced HGH allowing for the body to be in a state where it can lose weight and keep/gain lean muscle mass
  • helps regulate sleep: by promoting healthy growth hormone levels the body is often able to sleep deeper. This occurs because HGH production increases during sleep naturally so by providing healthy levels the body is able to recover and rest better
  • IGF is a huge part of muscle hypertrophy. This works by IGF enhancing protein synthesis and slowing down protein degradation. AKA your body is able to absorb protein better therefore making it easier to build lean muscle
  • IGF can improve joint pain and skeletal tissue through strengthening and elongating bones.In terms this creates less inflammation in the body and can decrease joint pain with consistent usage.
  • IGF has been shown to stimulate insulin sensitivity through binding to insulin receptors and decreasing hepatic glucose AKA helping your body break down sugar better. Over time, IGF can help lower AlC
  • Causes the brain to release nitric oxide which relaxes the muscles of the penis and increases blood flow to the region
  • stimulates the release of neurochemicals in order to increase satisfaction and desire. By increasing dopamine people may increase sexual desire and pleasure
  • binds to the melanocortin receptors in the brains hypothalamus. Brain neurons activate resulting in on­ demand erections and enhancement of libido

Gonadorelin is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist which is used in fertility medicine and to treat amenorrhea and hypogonadism.

Gonadorelin is used to test how well the hypothalamus and the pituitary glands are working. It is also used to cause ovulation (release of an egg from the ovary) in women who do not have regular ovulation and menstrual periods because the hypothalamus gland does not release enough GnRH.

Prevents further testicular shrinking. For younger men, it helps with fertility as well as natural testosterone production

  • Powerful agent in decreasing inflammatory response and can be used to improve conditions such as chronic hepatitis and acute pancreatitis
  • Contributes to the activity of B-cells to plasma cells which in turns creates antibiotics to help aid in recovery from illness and impairment
  • Thymosin regulates cytokines and lymphocyte development. Cytokines are produced to help send signals to the cells to heal the body
  • Thymalin helps the production of producing and maturing T-cells therefore allowing the body to be ready in the state of illness or diseases
  • Can be used for anti-aging properties: Thymalin aids in collagen and hylauronic acid production therefore allowing for better tissue and skin elasticity
  • Assists in weightloss by decreasing inflammation in the body
  • Peptide known to regulate glucose metabolism and increase insulin sensitivity.
  • MOT C works by potentially increasing energy expenditure and enhancing fat burning processes in the body while simultaneously suppressing appetite
  • MOTS-c assists proper mitochondrial function, and the mitochondria are the energy center of every cell in the human body. Research has shown that MOTS-c is an exercise-mimetic peptide, meaning it makes the body think it is exercising even when it is not.
  • Causes the inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis, improves the trophic supply of the brain, and protects the nervous system against diseases of the optic nerve
  • Reported to increase BDNF in the hippocampus and BDNF and NGF in the frontal cortex and hippocampus within 8 hours of administration. Therefore helping to increase serotonin in a short period of time
  • Slows down the breakdown of enkephalins, which are vital for pain relief, reducing inflammation, immunity memory, learning, and emotional behavior. Enkephalins are essential for healthy brain function
  • NAO+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is an essential coenzyme in regulating metabolism, longevity, DNA repair, and the immune system. A deregulation of NAO+ levels is associated with signs of aging, metabolic diseases, neurodegeneration, and cancer
  • Not only does NAO+ play a critical role in certain bodily processes, but it also has been shown to boost serotonin levels in the body. Serotonin is that feel-good chemical in your brain that boosts your mood when levels are high.
  • NAO+ helps in the battle against ageing by activating enzymes called “SIRTUIN” and “PARPS” which are essential in maintaining DNA repair which restore normal cellular DNA and normal cellular function.

Maintaining highest level NAO+ levels is key to supporting DNA repair in combination with prevention against age/ inflammatory related disease. Enhancing NAO+ levels reduce NAO STEAL and neurodegenerative decline.
