Peptide therapy involves administering amino acid chains (peptides) to patients to promote health and fight disease. Peptides occur naturally in the body and supplementing with additional therapeutic peptides can provide significant benefits. At Elite Hormone Therapy, we offer cutting edge peptide treatments to help patients look younger, build muscle, improve cognition and more.
Peptides play crucial roles in cell signaling, stimulating the release of key hormones in the body. As we age, peptide production declines leading to hormonal imbalances that manifest in symptoms associated with aging and disease. Replacement with synthetic therapeutic peptides combats this decline to restore optimal functioning.
Declining peptide levels negatively impacts the release of crucial regulatory hormones in the body. This leads to wide ranging symptoms and diseases associated with aging that diminish quality of life.
Due to their critical role in cell signaling and hormone regulation, peptide supplementation provides diverse benefits:
The wide range of benefits make peptide therapy an attractive anti-aging intervention. Below we will explore some of the most common and efficacious peptides used in treatment programs.
There are many different peptides used in clinical practice but some of the most common include:
A potent regenerative peptide boosting cell migration and adhesion. Thymosin stimulates new blood vessel development while reducing inflammation and scarring. This makes it excellent for treating acute and chronic wounds as well as rejuvenating tissues.
Thymosin Beta 4 accelerates injury healing, speeds repair of damaged and aged tissues throughout the body, and helps maintain healthy organ function. It also exhibits anti-aging effects on the skin.
Sermorelin acts on brain receptors to stimulate the pituitary gland, thereby boosting natural Growth Hormone (GH) output. Growth hormone plays crucial roles in childhood development but steadily declines with age leading to symptoms associated with aging.
Restoring youthful GH levels with sermorelin reverses muscle loss, builds strength and endurance, burns fat, enhances cognition, improves mood, increases libido, thickens skin and stimulates collagen production. It is one of the most effective overall anti-aging peptides.
A growth hormone releasing peptide that specifically targets abdominal fat by triggering GH release. It powerfully burning visceral fat in the abdomen, the most dangerous type that leads to metabolic syndrome.
By shrinking abdominal fat, tesamorelin provides extensive benefits: reduces inflammation, improves blood sugar regulation, lowers cholesterol, prevents diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and extends life expectancy.
Originally discovered in stomach juices that aid digestion and healing of stomach ulcers, BPC-157 is a highly protective peptide that accelerates injury recovery throughout the body - muscles, tendons, bones and internal organs.
It also exhibits neuroprotective effects, playing a role in brain cell signaling associated with mood, learning and memory. BPC-157 is still undergoing research but shows promise for healing leaky gut, IBS and enhancing mental health.
AOD stimulates fat metabolism without impacting growth pathways the way traditional Growth Hormone does. It specifically burns adipose tissue fat without increasing muscle mass. This makes it excellent for treating obesity.
It also appears to have regenerative effects on joint tissues, enhancing recovery in Osteoarthritis and damaged cartilage. Research into AOD 9604 is still ongoing but human trials show incredible promise in treating metabolic disorders and obesity.
Peptide therapy research has uncovered an unexpected role for certain peptides in wound healing. Specific peptide sequences have been found to stimulate cell migration and proliferation, angiogenesis, and collagen deposition when applied topically to wounds. This offers a novel, drug-free approach to accelerating wound closure using the body's own signaling molecules.
Due to their potent effects on aging and disease, peptide therapies should be considered at the first onset of symptoms associated with hormonal decline. Common reasons patients delay treatment include failing to recognize symptoms due to the gradual nature of hormonal decline or having symptoms attributed solely to normal aging rather than an underlying deficiency.
However, identifying and correcting the root hormonal imbalance early is crucial to prevent disease onset and progression. The devastating impacts of unchecked hormonal decline include muscle wasting, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, neurodegenerative disorders, mood disorders and loss of vitality/independence. Catching and addressing imbalances early is critical to help patients live full, healthy lives well into old age.
We advise suspecting an underlying deficiency and seeking specialized testing/care with the onset of any such symptoms. At Elite Hormone Therapy, we offer cutting edge Diagnostic and Peptide Therapy Protocols personalized to your unique needs.
Here at Elite Hormone Therapy of Oceanside California, we offer state-of-the-art regenerative peptide therapy programs tailored to your unique needs and health goals.
Dr. Stevens combines over 15 years experience with the latest research to design targeted treatment plans for patients. We address all underlying issues to help you look and feel your best whether you want to build muscle, burn fat, enhance cognition and memory, accelerate injury recovery or combat aging.
Oceanside enjoys a wonderfully mild Mediterranean climate making it the perfect backdrop for health optimization. The average high stays between 65°F and 78°F all year allowing for consistent outdoor activity to complement treatments.
We dig deeper with specialized blood tests assessing key hormones impacted by aging like Growth Hormone, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1), Thyroid Hormones, Sex Hormones, Cortisol, Vitamin D and more. This allows Dr. Stevens to accurately identify deficiencies contributing to your symptoms.
After assessing your bloodwork, medical history and health goals, Dr. Stevens will design a custom peptide therapy program to target your deficiencies and enhance specific desired outcomes.
Programs often combine several peptides like Sermorelin, Ipamorelin, and Thymosin Beta 4 to achieve maximal benefits. The flexibility to mix and match peptides based on your needs makes this a far more effective approach than traditional synthetic hormone replacement.
