Peptide Therapy
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules within the body. Different peptides interact with different biological pathways, which is why peptide therapies may be used to support a variety of health and wellness goals.
-
Peptides work by communicating with specific receptors and pathways in the body. Depending on the peptide prescribed, therapy may be designed to support processes related to recovery, body composition, metabolism, sleep, performance, or overall wellness.
-
The potential benefits depend on the specific peptide and your individual needs. Peptide therapy may be considered for goals such as:
Supporting healthy body composition
Exercise recovery and performance
Sleep quality
Energy and overall wellness
Healthy aging
Skin and hair health
-
Peptide therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Your provider will review your medical history, current medications, health concerns, and individual goals to determine whether peptide therapy is appropriate and which option may be best suited for you.
-
Frequency varies depending on the peptide, prescribed dose, and treatment plan. Some protocols are used several days per week, while others may follow a different schedule. You will receive individualized dosing instructions from your provider.
-
Results vary depending on the peptide, treatment goal, and individual response. Some patients may notice changes within the first several weeks, while other benefits can develop gradually with consistent treatment.
-
Treatment length is individualized. Your provider may recommend a defined treatment period followed by reassessment or an ongoing plan with regular monitoring, depending on your goals and response.
-
FDA approval varies by medication and indication. Some peptide-based medications are FDA-approved for specific uses, while other peptide therapies may involve compounded medications that are not FDA-approved. Your provider can explain the regulatory status of the specific treatment being recommended to you.
NAD+
Cellular Support From Within
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a naturally occurring coenzyme found in every cell of the body. It plays an essential role in cellular energy production, metabolism, DNA repair, and other processes involved in healthy cellular function.
NAD+ levels naturally decline with age and may also be influenced by factors such as stress, sleep, lifestyle, and metabolic demands. NAD+ therapy is designed to supplement the body's available NAD+ and support cellular function as part of an individualized wellness plan.
Potential Benefits of NAD+ Therapy
Depending on your individual needs and treatment plan, NAD+ may help support:
Cellular energy production
Healthy metabolism
Mental clarity and focus
Exercise performance and recovery
Healthy aging and cellular repair processes
Overall energy and wellness
Individual results vary. NAD+ therapy is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.

-
Sermorelin is a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog that stimulates the pituitary gland's natural growth hormone signaling. It may be considered as part of an individualized wellness plan for adults interested in supporting recovery, sleep, body composition, energy, and age-related wellness goals.
May support:
Sleep quality
Exercise recovery
Healthy body composition
Lean muscle maintenance
Energy + vitality
Healthy aging
Best suited for: Adults looking for a wellness-focused approach to supporting natural growth hormone signaling as they age.
-
Tesamorelin is a growth hormone-releasing factor analog that stimulates the body's natural production and release of growth hormone. It has been studied extensively for its effects on body composition in a specific medical population.
Depending on the medication and clinical indication, a provider may evaluate whether tesamorelin is appropriate based on an individual's medical history, goals, and overall treatment plan.
Areas of interest may include:
Body composition
Growth hormone signaling
Metabolic health
Lean body mass
Overall wellness
Best suited for: Adults looking for targeted body composition support with individualized medical guidance.
Peptide therapy is highly individualized and is not appropriate for everyone. FDA approval, evidence, risks, and permitted uses vary significantly by medication and indication. A medical consultation is required to determine whether treatment is appropriate.
