Skip to content Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Peptides play various roles in the body and are involved in many biological processes. Peptides restore cellular efficiency and are the keys to metabolic flexibility. Think of them as cell-signalers, acting as hormones and neurotransmitters, transmitting signals in the body. Peptides are used to manage metabolic disorders, act as antimicrobial agents or for their anti-inflammatory properties. They promote recovery and repair tissue. Peptides are used in skincare products for their anti-aging benefits, such as stimulating collagen production, skin tone and improving skin elasticity. Some peptides can enhance muscle growth, help you lose stubborn weight, build strength, melt fat and ignite your metabolism. We have over 5000 in our body!
This peptide is great for healing the gut in its oral form. Its molecule was originally isolated from a protein in the stomach. The body uses this peptide to help repair itself in times of stress. It is indicated in patients dealing with IBS, GERD, leaky gut, ulcers, Crohn’s disease as it improves the integrity of the gastric mucosa. It is also excellent for patients recovering from chemotherapy, improving cell survival under oxidative stress. It decreases inflammation and can replace the need for steroids.
KPV inactivates inflammatory pathways inside cells which makes it a great peptide for anyone dealing with inflammatory bowel disease. KPV has shown to significantly decrease inflammation in patients with colitis. It decreases the inflammatory response by inhibiting proinflammatory cytokine molecule synthesis and secretion. This peptide can be taken orally or subcutaneous.
This awesome peptide duo is the perfect fit for anyone dealing with gastrointestinal distress. This peptide combination is taken orally once to twice per day.
LL37 is naturally secreted in humans only as a response to infections and is one of the body’s most advanced anti-microbial, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory peptides. LL37 downregulates TL4 and increases IL-18 to decrease inflammation, repairs leaky gut by binding on lipopolysaccharides (LPS) to stop bacterial translocation and repairs compromised barriers. Useful for IBS or any acute or chronic infections. Breaks down biofilms in SIBO, mold, and Lyme disease, and corrects inflammatory conditions of the intestines.
This peptide is the powerhouse of antiinflammation by reducing inflammatory cytokines. It helps improve cell survival under oxidative stress and replaces the need for steroids. BPC157 increases nitric oxide production, leading to improved blood flow to the area of injury, thus reducing pain.
Thymosin beta-4 is a peptide with G actin-sequestering action, meaning it goes directly to the site needing repair. It is known for angiogenesis, accelerated wound healing and cellular repair, especially in soft tissue injury. This peptide has been proven to improve cell repair for post heart attack and stroke. It is great for repairing post surgery, injury, neuropathy and dry eyes. It is a subcutaneous injection done once per day.
Even though your T-Cells decline, and your thymus gland shrinks with age, Thymogen Alpha-1 (a thymosin alpha frag) brings them back to life no matter what chronic infection is in the way. Thymosen alpha-1 activates dendritic cells to release antigens that allow your immune system to ward off impending invaders without disturbing your delicate ecosystem. Even though your T-Cells decline, and your thymus gland shrinks with age, Thymosin Alpha-1 (a thymosin alpha frag) brings them back to life no matter what chronic infection is in the way. Thymosin Alpha 1 is part of your insurance policy against cancer cells by increasing CD-4 and CD-8 cells to stop tumor growth and can be used as adjunctive therapy with chemo and radiation. This is an amazing anti-viral and should be used with EBV and Covid-19. It is also an immune-modulator used in MS.
GHK-Cu (copper) cream helps improve skin laxity, clarity, and appearance. It reduces fine lines and the depth of wrinkles, and increases skin density and thickness. GHK-Cu facial cream shows visible signs after 12 weeks of daily application. This is a must for your skin care routine and also comes in a combination with a 0.025% tretinoin.
Tirzepatide is a GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptor agonist and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist and is helping many achieve breakthroughs in weight loss. The GIP and GLP-1 receptors are found in areas of the brain that aid in appetite regulation, which is how decreased food intake and weight loss is achieved while taking this peptide. Tirzepatide also slows down the movement of food from the stomach, making you feel fuller for longer. Studies are ongoing to implement this peptide as treatment for overweight individuals with heart failure, people dealing with obstructive sleep apnea, non-alcoholic fatty liver and chronic kidney disease. Long term studies show zero incidence of cardiac events demonstrating that sugar control and insulin sensitivity plays a crucial role in preventing heart disease. This peptide is a subcutaneous injection.
AOD9604 is a peptide fragment derived from human growth hormone (HGH) and mimics the fat-burning effects of HGH without impacting blood sugar levels or causing significant growth in other tissues. It specifically stimulates lipolysis (the breakdown of fat) and inhibits lipogenesis (the formation of fat) by targeting fat cells. Unlike HGH, AOD9604 does not have anabolic effects, meaning it doesn’t promote muscle growth or interfere with normal hormonal functions. This peptide is proven and powerful and best of all, can be taken orally.
This amazing peptide provides energy, burns fat and helps prevent the development of many diseases. 5-amino-1MQ blocks the activity of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). This process stimulates an increase in the levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) therefore increasing the body’s metabolic rate, resulting in weight loss, specifically loss of stored fat. This energy powerhouse peptide also activates a gene called sirtuin-1 (SIRT1), also known as ‘the longevity gene’. SIRT1 lowers the risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. This is an oral peptide, taken 1-2 times per day.
Around the age of 30, the growth horomone (GH) produced by our bodies begins to naturally slow down. Declining GH levels leads to many of the negative health issues we associate with aging. Things like slower cognitive function, decreased bone & muscle mass, increased visceral fat, cardiovascular risk, lower capacity to exercise, and increased mortality are all associated with decreased GH. HGH therapy introduces synthetic hormones directly into your system, which can lead to a range of complications and imbalances; it destroys the negative feedback loop and creates mitochondrial dysfunction leading to decreased ATP. It puts cells in a seesaw of growth and death. By taking GHRP/GHRH peptides, you get the benefits of GH with none of the risks. That is because it send the signal to the pituitary to release your own GH.
IGF stands for insulin growth factor. In the body, IGF-1 is released by the liver in the presence of Human Growth Hormone and works by promoting nitrogen retention and increases protein synthesis. IGF1Lr3 causes a direct effect on muscles in the body by actual development of fresh muscle fibers and cells. This peptide can be used to help achieve a lean body by burning fat and increasing muscle. It is also very powerful in the healing process as it plays a crucial role in collagenous connective tissue repair, such as ligaments.
Sermorelin can enhance energy, improve muscle mass and strength, and metabolize fat more efficiently. Additionally, this peptide promotes better sleep patterns, improved skin elasticity, and a stronger immune system. It also supports the reduction of LDL (bad cholesterol) levels, helps normalizes carbohydrate metabolism, and increases protein synthesis.
This peptide is a powerhouse for fat loss and stimulates your body to release growth hormone and help you build muscle increase strength. It has anti-aging benefits such as improved skin, hair and mental clarity. Tesamorelin will help you lose the stubborn fat that your body has been holding onto, improve your lean mass and give you better sleep in the process. This is a subcutaneous injection done 6 days per week with 1 day off and should be done 12 weeks on with 4 weeks off in between treatments.
Due to Hexarelin’s ability to increase secretion of natural Growth Hormone, most of its effects are similar to those of synthetic GH, although to a slightly lesser extent. Effects of its use include increase in strength, growth of muscle fibers, neural protection, joint rejuvenation, recovery and healing. This peptide also enhances cardiovascular activityAlso, the GH receptors in adipose (fat) tissue allow for fat reduction with Hexarelin use. The increase of circulating GH through Hexarelin use causes levels of Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF-1) to rise in the liver. IGF-1 is the prime cause of muscle growth in response to GH stimulation. There is no appetite boost with Hexarelin use (as opposed to GHRP-6’s extreme appetite increase) due to its inability to drastically increase Ghrelin levels that are responsible for added hunger and quicker gastric emptying. This peptide also promotes great sleep quality. Hexarelin peptide can be taken 16 weeks on, 4 weeks off.
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a coenzyme for redox reactions, making it central to energy metabolism. NAD+ directly and indirectly influences many key cellular functions, including metabolic pathways, DNA repair, chromatin remodeling, cellular senescence and immune cell function. As we age, NAD+ levels decline which is linked to numerous aging-associated diseases, including cognitive decline, cancer, metabolic disease, sarcopenia and frailty. Many of these aging-associated diseases can be slowed down and even reversed by restoring NAD+ levels. NAD+ supplies the mitochondria to help them make ATP.
This amazing peptide provides energy, burns fat and helps prevent the development of many diseases. 5-amino-1MQ blocks the activity of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). This process stimulates an increase in the levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) therefore increasing the body’s metabolic rate, resulting in weight loss, specifically loss of stored fat. This energy powerhouse peptide also activates a gene called sirtuin-1 (SIRT1), also known as ‘the longevity gene’. SIRT1 lowers the risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. This is an oral peptide, taken 1-2 times per day.
NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) is a precursor to NAD+. It has been shown to suppress age-associated weight gain, enhance energy metabolism and physical activity, improve insulin sensitivity, improve eye function, improve mitochondrial metabolism and prevent age-linked changes in gene expression. This is an amazing supplement and you can feel its effects right away. NMN is a staple in longevity medicine.
This powerhouse duo helps promote longevity by boosting mitochondrial function and reducing the risk for developing chronic disease.
DiHexa is a nootropic derived from angiotensin IV. Angiotensin IV is a peptide hormone that affects the central nervous system and assists in the regulation of insulin, memory acquisition and recall. This peptide has been found to potentially assist in the improvement of the cognitive functions that decline as a result of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. It works by augmenting synaptic connectivity. It was found to be more effective than that of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, or BDNF, and has the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier. DiHexa can help improve critical thinking, improves production of dopamine and noradrenaline, increased mental stamina, better articulation, improved circulation, accelerated wound healing, and can provide an increase in muscle growth.
This is a nootropic peptide used to treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, lack of motivation, reduces stress, increases learning, memory, cognition, metabolic syndrome, and blood sugar reduction. Works by modulating interleukin-6 and influencing monoamine neurotransmitters. It is an intranasal peptide done once per day.
PT-141 (bremelanotide) stimulates melanocortin receptors in the brain, which can increase sexual desire and arousal. It targets the nervous system, unlike other treatments that focus on the heart and blood vessels. This peptide is for both men and women.
Oxytocin is a nano peptide hormone that is secreted by the posterior pituitary and is known as the “cuddle” hormone. Oxytocin is released by males and females during skin to skin contact, sexual arousal, orgasm and additionally plays a role in bonding and desire. Many consider it the key lubricant in the machinery of sex, increasing the desire to be touched, reinforcing the cycle of sex hormone escalation. This can be taken daily or on an as needed basis. Oxytocin is in the form of a troche, which is a sublingual melt-away.
