Peptide & Longevity Therapies
Beyond GLP-1s: peptides and longevity therapies, explained honestly.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules — they tell cells to release growth hormone, regulate appetite, repair tissue, or manage inflammation. Your body makes hundreds of them naturally. Semaglutide and tirzepatide — the GLP-1 drugs — are peptides.
Therapeutic peptides are lab-made versions of these signals. Sermorelin prompts your pituitary to release more growth hormone. NAD+ (technically a coenzyme, not a peptide) supports cellular energy and repair. They’re usually offered on the same telehealth platforms, so we cover them together.
The appeal is precision. The catch is that quality, dosing, and sourcing matter enormously.
