PEPTIDE THERAPY
FOR MEN AND WOMEN
ABOUT PEPTIDES
Have you been searching for options to address health concerns like inflammation, infections, and weakened immunity? Are you seeking individualized ways to improve your sleep, reignite your sex drive, heal from injuries, promote weight loss, or build lean muscle? Peptide therapy may be for you.
A wide variety of effective new peptide medications have emerged in the past decade. Peptides are short amino acid chains that are naturally present in the human body, but decrease with the aging process.
Peptides are more easily absorbed by the body than proteins, which are long chains of amino acids. Like proteins, peptides are found in foods like beans, eggs, and dairy. Targeted, lab-made peptides are increasingly used to treat conditions like obesity and diabetes with fewer side effects than many other pharmaceuticals

PEPTIDES WE OFFER
Ibutamoren (MK677)
Ibutemoren (MK677)
MK-677 (also known as ibutamoren), promotes the secretion of the growth hormone (GH) and increases insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). This may help to reduce muscle wasting, increasing muscle mass and maintaining healthy muscle, which is important with any weight loss or strength training program.
Increasing bone density, improved sleep, combating aging and possibly increasing overall longevity.
Growth Hormone Secretagogues (GHS’s)
Growth Hormone's include Semorelin and Ibutamoren (MK677). GHS's stimulate the body's own growth hormones, like IGF-1, and may promote reduced body fat, increased muscle mass, and more restful sleep in men and women.
Tesamorelin
Tesamorelin increases levels of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in both men and women. By stimulating GHRH (growth hormone releasing hormone) receptors, Tesamorelin can reduce triglycerides, belly fat, c-reactive protein (CRP), and carotid intima-medial thickness (cIMT). Clinical studies have demonstrated that Tesamorelin can reduce abdominal fat, decrease carotid intima-medial thickness (cIMT), and lower c-reactive protein (CRP) levels. It may also be nootropic, improving learning and memory, especially for seniors at risk of mild cognitive impairment.
Semaglutide
Semaglutide supports the pancreas, increasing sugar metabolism and insulin secretion. It is often used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. It helps the pancreas release the right amount of insulin when blood sugar levels are high, and may also reduce appetite and slow down digestion to promote weight loss. Clinical studies indicate semaglutide may be an effective treatment for long-term weight loss. Semaglutide is a weekly subcutaneous injection and may cause some gastrointinal side effects.
Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide increases insulin secretion, slows digestion, lowers glucagon release, and promotes a healthy body weight. Clinical studies indicate it improves cardiovascular health in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity. It regulates two hormones, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), to improve glucose regulation and suppress appetite. Tirzepatide is available via a weekly subcutaneous injection.
IS PEPTIDE THERAPY RIGHT FOR ME?
Peptide therapy can be an appropriate treatment for most healthy adults who want to improve their overall wellness, slow aging, or address specific conditions with fewer side effects. Peptide medications may be taken orally via pills or via injections. Treatment will be tailored to your health challenges and goals, and can be combined with other modalities like nutrition counseling and bioidentical hormone replacement for men and women.
