Peptide Therapy
What Are Peptides?
Peptide therapy explained. Amino acids are known as the building blocks of protein. When amino acids are linked together they form chains called peptides. Long chain peptides form proteins. Each peptide in the body is responsible for a specific function. When we look at peptides that are specific to the production of our own natural growth hormone levels there are many benefits that not only slow the aging process, but can help reverse the signs of aging. Learn More about What Peptides Do.
Benefits of Peptide Therapy:
- Decreased body fat
- Increased lean muscle mass
- Increased cellular turnover of skin, hair and nails
- Increased recovery times and healing
- Improved sleep
- Increased hormone production
- Decreased blood sugar
- Immune system support
- Improved calcium retention and bone support
CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin
CJC 1295 is a synthetically produced peptide that helps promote the increase of the body’s own naturally occurring growth hormone levels. It has been shown to have significant benefits with minimal side effects to enhance the healing and recovery process in athletes. By increasing protein synthesis, this peptide, used in conjunction with Ipamorelin, can increase the growth of muscle cells. By increasing GH (Growth Hormone) levels, triggered by the pituitary gland, we can then see the effects on slowing the aging process.
Older generation peptides have only been shown to pulse the pituitary for short periods of time, thus releasing only a small amount of GH. The newer generation peptides pulse the pituitary for longer periods of time, resulting in a significantly higher release of the body’s own natural GH levels.
