Peptide therapy involves the use of specific peptide compounds to treat various health conditions. Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. Some key uses and benefits of peptide therapy include:
Chronic disease treatment
- Peptides can help regulate inflammation and immune responses, so they are used to treat autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and lupus. Certain peptides may suppress overactive immune cells or stimulate underactive immune cells.
- Peptides promote tissue and nerve repair, making them helpful for chronic degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. They may protect brain cells, stimulate neuron regrowth, or reduce amyloid plaques.
- Antimicrobial peptides combat infections, so they have applications against chronic bacterial, viral, and fungal diseases.
Anti-aging and longevity
- Peptides like epithalon and thymalin regulate cellular processes involved in aging. They may stimulate tissue and DNA repair, remove age-related toxins, or reset aged cells to a youthful state. This can help treat age-related chronic illness while potentially prolonging lifespan.
Gut health and digestion
- Enteric peptide supplements can improve inflammation, permeability, and microbiome balance in the gut. This helps resolve common issues like bloating, leaky gut syndrome, IBS, and food sensitivities.
Injury healing and recovery
- Various peptides accelerate muscle, bone, tendon, cartilage, nerve, and skin regeneration. This makes them helpful recovery aids for sports injuries, wounds, or post-surgical healing. Specific bone and cartilage peptides may also counteract osteoporosis.
Hormone regulation
- Peptide hormones and hormone-stimulating peptides are used to treat hormonal imbalances related to menopause, andropause, thyroid disorders, and infertility. Examples include sermorelin for growth hormone deficiency and gonadorelin for reproductive health.
Mental health conditions
- Cerebral peptides called nootropics enhance functions like memory, learning, attention, mood and sleep. This makes them useful supplements for cognitive decline diseases and psychiatric disorders like depression, anxiety, PTSD and ADD/ADHD.
