Peptides are short amino acid chains connected by peptide bonds.  You might also have heard them called “small proteins” since most peptides contain 50 or fewer amino acids – but they sometimes feature long peptide chains, known as polypeptides. Medical researchers and scientists often use synthetic peptides to understand interactions between peptides and proteins – […]

Lipotropic compounds help to break down fats, also known as lipids. You can consume lipotropics through injections or supplements. Some of the types available through prescriptions are: Choline L-Methionine Taurine Inositol Chromium L-Carnitine Calcium Vitamin B-6 How lipotropics work Lipotropic agents support the functioning of the liver, which is key in our metabolic processes. By […]

Tesamorelin is a hormone that can decrease fat in the stomach area, most often for people suffering from HIV. However, it may also be useful for other purposes, like tackling the effects of aging, managing weight, and building muscles. It seems to work in a similar way to a human growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF). Like […]

Vitamin B-12 is a water-soluble, B-complex vitamin that is involved in immune function, growth, metabolism, DNA production, red blood cell manufacture, and nerve function. Generally, shortages are unusual.  However, some individuals are predisposed to deficiency, for instance, those on plant-based diets, the elderly, those with gastrointestinal (GI) tract disorders, such as nutrient absorption problems, and […]

What is thymosin alpha 1? Thymosin alpha 1 is a biological response modifier believed to help treat various illnesses and diseases. It’s a naturally occurring thymic peptide composed of 28 amino acids. So far, researchers have linked Tα1 with fighting inflammation and boosting immunity, among other uses. It has been applied as both standalone and […]

The peptide known as AOD 9604 happens to be a modified growth hormone, specifically a 191 amino acid peptide. The previous amino acids (176 191) belonging to the polypeptide growth hormone are reproduced into a peptide known as GH Frag 176-191, or “AOD 9604,” for short. Stimulation of the Pituitary Gland AOD 9604 BENEFITS: Minimizes […]

Epithalon (sometimes spelled epithalone or eptalon) is a synthetic variation of a polypeptide called epithalamin. The body’s pineal gland  produces epithalamin naturally. Vladimir Khavinson, a Russian professor and scientist, discovered epithalon and conducted clinical trials on it for over 35 years using both humans and animals as subjects. The beneficial effect epithalons have on the […]

GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT STRESS AND GASTRIC PENTADECAPEPTIDE STABILITY BPC 157 is comprised of 15 different amino acids. It is an incomplete sequence of a BPC (Body Production Compound) found in human gastric juice (as well as being isolated from it). Studies show that BPC 157 contains a number of properties beneficial for biological healing. Research indicates […]

The 1970s are when Sermorelin first came onto the scene. This peptide is comprised of amino acids (29 in total). Their main purpose is to stimulate the natural growth of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) from the body’s pituitary gland. Sermorelin is frequently integrated with  GHRP-6 and GHRP-2, among other growth hormone-releasing peptides (a.k.a. growth releasing […]

The synthetic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog is comprised of 30 different amino acids. GHRH can effectively increase the secretion of IGF-1 and growth hormones without affecting GH secretion pulsatility in an adverse way. CJC-1265 is sometimes used in conjunction with Ipamorelin because of its heightened GHRH-specificity. The peptide produces similar growth hormone secretion increases, […]

I am here to talk to the podiatrist community and explain the potential benefits of BPC-157 as it relates to healing torn tendons, such as the Achilles tendon and plantar fascia tendon. I’ll be focusing on the plantar fascia tendon at this time. BPC 157 is a peptide used for healing. It has become popular […]

Entadecapeptide BPC 157, which is comprised of 15 different amino acids, is a partial sequence of BPC, or Body Protection Compound. BPC 157 is found in human gastric juice. It is isolated and extracted to be used for several purposes. Experiments have shown that it has the potential to accelerate the healing process, in particular […]
