What is peptide therapy?

Peptides are small proteins naturally produced in your body. They communicate with cells and trigger activities ranging from reducing inflammation and regenerating damaged tissues to boosting your immune system.

Peptide therapy refers to taking specific peptides to treat a health problem. Regenerative Health NY focuses on peptides that help you:

• Improve workouts and recovery
• Build muscle mass and strength
• Lose weight and body fat
• Boost energy and stamina
• Strengthen your immune system
• Improve your sex drive
• Accelerate wound healing
• Support cardiovascular health

Peptides can also slow cellular aging and stimulate the production of hormones that decline as you get older. What types of peptide therapy might I receive?

BPC-157

BPC-157 alleviates joint pain and accelerates healing by increasing blood flow to tissues like tendons and ligaments. This peptide also boosts healing in skin burns.

PT-141

PT-141 treats erectile dysfunction by activating the nervous system, which increases your sex drive and arousal while also giving you the ability to have a strong erection.

CJC 1295 & Ipamorelin

CJC 1295 & Ipamorelin are peptides, called Growth Hormone Secretagogue, they stimulate the production of Human Growth Hormone from the anterior pituitary gland. CJC 1295 & Ipamorelin are often used together to stimulate muscle development. The combination works by increasing the blood level of hormones associated with growth. It can increase muscle mass and strength, decrease body fat, improve injury recovery time, and even improve sleep quality and cognitive function.

Ibutamoren

Ibutamoren, also known as MK-677, mimics the effects of Ghrelin, an inhibitor of Somatostatin. When activated, Somatostatin inhibits the secretion of Human Growth Hormone from the anterior pituitary gland. Therefore, the effects of Ibutamoren cause a rise in HGH secretion. Ibutamoren is commonly prescribed in conjuction with CJC 1295 & Ipamorelin. 

Thymosin Beta-4

Thymosin Beta-4, nicknamed the "Wolverine", is a very powerful healing peptide. Thymosin Beta-4 is naturally occurring and found in many organs and tissues; including the heart, liver, skeletal muscle, fat cells, skin, and many other tissues throughout the body. It is also expressed in immune cells, such as macrophages and T-lymphocytes. It is known to promote wound healing by stimulating the formation of new blood vessels and orchestrating the recruitment of structural proteins for the repair of tendons, muscle, and skin. 

AOD 9604

Anti-Obesity Drug (AOD) 9604 is a growth hormone analog peptide that stimulates the body to perform lipolysis (the process of fat breakdown) and lipogenesis (the process of fat synthesis). Clinical studies have shown that it can increase lean body mass, reduce fat, and improve overall physical performance. Additionally, it has been suggested that it can improve joint health and mobility.

Semax

Semax is a synthetic peptide drug derived from the brain hormone known as Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH). It has been shown to have numerous beneficial effects such as improving cognitive function, alleviating depression and anxiety, reducing inflammation, and protecting against nerve damage.

Selank

Selank is a synthetic peptide derived from a natural human protein known as Tuftsin. It has been shown to have numerous pharmacological effects including anxiety reduction, stress relief, memory improvement, cognitive function improvement, and immune response improvement. Selank is also being researched as a potential treatment for diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Schizophrenia.

GHK-Cu

GHK-Cu is a copper peptide complex derived from the protein human glutathione. It has recently become a popular treatment for hair loss due to its anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and regenerative effects. Studies have found that GHK-Cu treatment can reduce the shedding of hair, increase hair follicle diameter, promote hair follicle growth, and reduce the amount of time it takes for hair to regrow.

Is peptide therapy safe?

Yes, peptide therapy at Regenerative Health NY is a safe, effective treatment. The peptides you receive mimic those found in your body. They’re also approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and produced in facilities that strictly follow quality control procedures.

The same can’t be said for the peptides you may find in your local stores. Not all peptides go through quality control.

How do I take peptide therapy?

Your Regenerative Health NY provider may inject your peptide therapy, ensuring you get a precise dose. But you may also get peptide therapy in the form of oral tablets or capsules, topical creams, and nasal sprays.
