Peptides are short chains of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Peptides play many important roles in the human body. Some key facts about peptides:
- Peptides are made up of 2 to 50 amino acids. Shorter chains are known as oligopeptides, while longer chains are proteins.
- Hundreds of peptides exist naturally in the human body. They act as hormones, neurotransmitters, growth factors, antibiotics, and more.
- Many peptides have profound effects on health and disease. For example, insulin is a peptide hormone that regulates blood sugar.
Now let's discuss some common therapeutic uses of peptides:
Peptide therapies can help with injury recovery, immune health, muscle building, weight loss, and anti-aging. At Balance Hormone Clinic, we offer cutting-edge peptide regimens to help patients achieve optimal health.
For instance, thymosin beta-4 is a peptide that accelerates wound healing. BPC-157 is a peptide that reduces inflammation and heals damaged tendons and muscles. These peptides are literal “fountain of youth” molecules with incredible rejuvenating effects.
Other popular peptides include:
- Ipamorelin - promotes muscle growth and fat loss
- Sermorelin - stimulates growth hormone for anti-aging
- MOTS-c - enhances metabolism and endurance
- Semax - improves cognitive function
