Peptide Therapy Benefits for Both Men and Women

Age, stress, and changes in diet can result in disruption of peptide production. 
Peptide therapy can aid in treating by mimicking your body’s own peptides, which elicit a particular desired response. They are much smaller than proteins and are easily absorbed by the skin or spread through the bloodstream. As they move through your body, they send signals to begin the process of healing or producing hormones to regulate your bodies natural processes.
While often referred to as a general fountain of youth, some specific benefits patients may expect to see when starting anti-aging peptide therapy include: 

 

  • Improved healing time for wounds/injuries
  • Stronger immune system and heart
  • Increased energy & body strength
  • Better quality of sleep
  • Increase fat burn and muscle build to promote a lean body
  • Increased libido and sexual performance

What are Peptides?

There are over 7,000 known peptides within the human body and though some may be similar each is responsible for facilitating a different response and action within the body.  Some are widely known such as insulin and collagen. Other peptides such as Sermorelin, CJC-1295, Ipamorelin, and Bremelanotide are new and innovative forms of hormone replacement therapy that utilizes to help restore and enhance the body’s natural processes.  

They are composed of amino acids and function as the building blocks of proteins. These partial pieces of protein send signals and instruct other cells and molecules within the body to perform a variety of functions.

Some common functions of peptides include:

Chronic pain relief

Aiding in soft tissue repair

Accelerating healing processes

 Promoting weight loss and lean muscle gain

 Reversing symptoms of sexual dysfunction

Improving hormone production and cognitive function

As the body ages, the natural production and quality of peptides declines.

The unique property of peptides can be harnessed and used to treat specific conditions; this treatment process is known as peptide therapy.

 

How Peptide Therapy Works

Peptide therapy works by mimicking your body’s own peptides, which elicit a particular desired response. Peptides are much smaller than proteins and are easily absorbed by the skin or spread through the bloodstream. As they move through your body, they send signals to begin the process of healing or producing hormones to regulate your bodies natural processes. Age, stress, environmental pollutants, and lifestyle choices such as diet can result in disruption of natural peptide production.
Since peptides are naturally occurring and specific in function, they are well tolerated within your body with minimal to no side effects of treatment.
Peptide therapy usually involves a subcutaneous injection (though there are multiple ones available in capsule form). Since peptides can be reused by the body, there is no risk of toxic accumulation in tissues. Peptides are naturally occurring, the risks of drug to drug interaction and reactions are very low. They are safe, effective, and the future of almost limitless possibility.

Joint, Tendon, and Soft Tissue Regeneration

BPC-157: demonstrates healing soft tissues such as ligament, muscle and tendon injuries.  BPC-157 is a 15 amino acid sequence part of the body protection complex secreted from the gastric juice in humans and is found no where else in nature. It upregulates growth hormone receptors in soft tissues, upregulates vascular tissue growth factors, upregulates nitric oxide and activates the FAK-paxillin pathway to regulate cell activity in musculoskeletal repair.  Oral dosing can be used for treatment of disorders of the GI tract such as leaky gut, eosinophilic esophagitis, ulcerative colitis , IBD, and stomach ulcers or injected to reap total body benefits including as an adjunct to orthopedic injury.

Low Libido/Erectile Dysfunction

Bremelanotide or PT-141: FDA approved for treating hypoactive sexual desire disorder in premenopausal women but can also be used to improve erections in men. Our partnership with compounding pharmacies saves you hundred of dollars from the brand name drug prescription.

Sermorelin

Cognitive and Mental Clarity, COVID fog

Semax- Delivered through a nasal spray. There are numerous pharmacological products containing Semax available in the United States, and it is also used independently throughout clinical practices to treat a wide variety of nervous system disorders. It is also used therapeutically to enhance the performance and adaptability of healthy people looking to pursue extreme sports and higher physical goals. Often marketed as a “smart drug” or a “nootropic”, Semax is believed to improve cognitive function. Others use Semax to improve their learning and problem-solving skills, while others use it to increase their productivity and focus. Additionally, Semax has been investigated for its potential use as a nootropic in treating stroke, traumatic brain injury, and cardiovascular disease.

When Will You See Results?

It is important to note that peptide therapy is not a cure-all. It is a supportive treatment that can bolster and enhance your body’s natural ability to heal itself. Many patients feel an almost immediate improvement in the way they feel following a peptide therapy session. Others may find it takes at least a few weeks to notice desired results. Typically, you should notice improved sleep and energy within a few weeks. Full benefits such as increased muscle mass and decreased fat may be realized between 3-6 months following initiation of treatment.

Costs?

Costs will vary from patient to patient. This depends on the number of goals and type of goals addressed.  Please note we only prescribe medical grade peptides and do not recommend use of research grade peptides.

Peptide therapy typically cost start at about $200 per month and can range widely depending on patient therapy plan.
