Peptide Therapy

What are peptides?

  • Peptides are small chains of amino acids. Most peptides prescribed are naturally occurring in our bodies.

  • Peptides are part of the messaging and signaling system in the body.

  • Similar to hormones, our bodies produce less peptides as we age, which may contribute to the aging process.

There are over 60 peptides that are FDA approved medications (insulin, Ozempic, etc.) and over 140 peptides are being used and studied that are not yet FDA approved.

Who could benefit from peptides?

Peptides are potentially beneficial for patients who have the basics of health well controlled- a healthy, low inflammation diet, regular sleep, and regular exercise- and just need a little more to get them to their best health.

What conditions can peptides help?

Weight loss, joint injury and pain, gut inflammation, sleep quality, energy improvement, memory and brain health, skin and hair health are just some of the conditions that can benefit from peptide therapy.

Where do you get peptides?

  • Peptides are only available from compounding pharmacies through a licensed health care prescriber (MD, NP, PA)

  • Never buy peptides off the internet

What peptides are not?

  • Peptides are not a magic cure. Without a healthy lifestyle, peptides cannot do their job.

  • Peptides are not accepted by the traditional medical community as a therapeutic option.

  • Most peptides have not gone through the vigorous clinical trials that FDA approved medications have.

Available Peptides

  • Semaglutide is used for weight loss and blood sugar management. We are seeing significant reductions in body fat when using semaglutide with a low-carb, high-protein diet and exercise. Semaglutide is included in our Weight Loss Program.

  • Delta Sleep Inducing Peptide (DSIP) has been shown to improve deep REM sleep, reset circadian rhythms, and improve thyroid and sex hormone production.

  • These are peptides that have shown benefits against brain fog, ADD or focus issues, and general cognitive function.

  • These are peptides for low sexual drive in women. Taken as needed to increase libido.

  • The body re-composition peptides. More muscle, less fat. This combination helps promote growth hormone release, increases skeletal muscle mass, improves exercise recovery, and may help with fat loss.

  • Anti-aging, reduces chronic inflammation, helps with metabolic signaling, and improves energy.
