Peptides
Many people assume that feeling tired, gaining weight, decrease sex drive, loss of focus, wrinkles and joint pain are inevitable with aging and fail to seek treatment for these aliments. As we age, our body’s natural production of essential amino acids declines which influences our body’s to slow down many essential processes.
Peptides are medication made up of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. Peptides and proteins are the body’s natural signaling molecules and their effects make peptides the number one method for anti-aging and wellness. Peptides aid in slowing the aging process, increase human growth hormone along with increasing the quality of life. Since peptides occur naturally in the body, they are effective in treating many conditions with very few side effects. Some of the multitude of benefits include:
- Improving the nervous, immune and cardiovascular systems
- Increased Energy and Mood
- Fights Osteoporosis
- Helps tighten skin and speeds up hair growth
- Improves sleep
- Increase sex drive and better sexual performance
- Enhances focus and better memory
- Enhances development of lean muscle and shortens recovery time
- Boost Metabolism
- Assist in Fat loss
BPC-157
BPC-157 has wound-healing properties, particularly for tendon-to-bone and ligament injuries, and the ability to reduce pain in damaged areas. BPC-157 also seems to protect the internal organs related to digestion. Specifically, it works to prevent ulcers of the stomach and enhances the function of the digestive tract to combat leaky gut, IBS, gastrointestinal cramps, and Crohn’s disease.
CJC/iparmorelin
CJC 1295 has been shown to potentially increase Human Growth Hormone and IGF-I secretion, which is correlated with longevity. CJC 1295 is showing a promising effect for increased protein synthesis, improved recovery in sports, reduced body fat, and immune system support.
Ipamorelin is an incredible peptide that also stimulates the production of growth hormone, but without the added side-effects it has also been shown to powerfully affect ghrelin, our body’s “hunger hormone,” which regulates appetite and energy balance.The combination of Ipamorelin and CJC 1295 is proving to be a powerful way to address aging issues particularly in people with inflammatory conditions, disease, or in those with low IGF-1 levels.
Thymosin Alpa 1
Thymosin Alpha 1 is a major component responsible for restoring immune function. Thymosin Alpha-1 (Ta1) activates and enhances the activity of various cells of the immune system (T-cells, natural killer cells, etc.) and has been shown to benefit people suffering from disorders linked to impaired or ineffective immune responses, such as acute and chronic infections. Ta1 can also be helpful to people with acute or chronic viral (such as herpes) or bacterial infections, including subjects with severe sepsis, infections after bone marrow transplant, chronic hepatitis B or C, or acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). Studies also report that Ta1 is useful for supporting those with inflammatory autoimmune disorders such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis.
- Improves chronic fatigue
- Boosts immune system
- Improves chronic inflammatory conditions
- Improves immune modulation
Other peptides include:
Leuphasyl/Argieleine: that has a botox like affect on fine lines
