Peptide therapy involves the use of specific peptide compounds to promote health, wellness, and treat medical conditions. Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. Some key things to know:
Examples include BPC-157, Thymosin Beta, AOD9604, Sermorelin, and more. Each has specific effects in the body.
Peptides can be injected subcutaneously, intramuscularly, or intravenously depending on the specific type used.
As we age, peptide production in the body slows leading to deficiency symptoms. Getting peptide therapy can help provide levels the body lacks. Those considering therapy may experience:
Timely diagnosis and treatment are essential to help alleviate symptoms, promote proper body function, and enhance quality of life.

Once your customized peptide protocol is ready, you can begin treatment. We’ll teach you how to properly self-administer the peptides we prescribe for you.
Peptide therapy researchers unexpectedly discovered that certain peptides can actually stimulate stem cell production and tissue regeneration in the brain and other organs. Early peptide treatments have shown promise for improving memory and cognitive function in animal studies by promoting the growth of new neurons, opening up intriguing possibilities for future therapies.
For optimal results from your peptide therapy, we also advise:
Eat a balanced diet high in vegetables, lean protein, and anti-inflammatory foods. Stay hydrated daily.
Anxiety and stress negatively impact health. Make time for relaxing activities like walking outdoors, reading, or meditating. Consider therapy if needed.
Aim for 150 minutes per week of moderate activity. Walking trails and fitness centers in Abilene provide plenty of options. Building lean muscle boosts peptides’ effects.
Get 7-9 hours per night for cognitive health and peptide function. Aim for a consistent sleep/wake cycle.
