PEPTIDE THERAPY
What Are Peptides?
Peptides are small chains of amino acids. Amino acids are the natural building blocks your body uses to make proteins. Think of peptides as tiny “messenger molecules” in the body. They help cells communicate and tell the body how to function and respond.
What Do Peptides Do in the Body?
Peptides play a role in many normal body processes, including:
-
Healing and tissue repair
-
Hormone signaling
-
Immune system function
-
Skin health and collagen production
-
Muscle growth and recovery
Your body naturally makes peptides every day.
Are Peptides Medications?
Some peptides are used in approved prescription medications for specific medical conditions. Others are still being studied in research and are not yet approved for general medical use.
Key Takeaway
Peptides are natural compounds made of amino acids that help your body send signals and regulate important functions like healing, recovery, and hormone activity.
What Is Sermorelin?
Sermorelin is a prescription peptide medication classified as a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog. It is used in clinical settings to support the body’s natural regulation of growth hormone secretion through pituitary stimulation.
Unlike exogenous growth hormone (HGH) therapy, Sermorelin acts on the body’s endogenous hormone signaling pathways rather than directly replacing growth hormone.
Clinical Use
Sermorelin is prescribed by licensed healthcare providers only after individualized medical evaluation.
In clinical practice, it may be considered as part of a comprehensive hormone health assessment and treatment plan, which can include evaluation of endocrine function, metabolic health, and related clinical indicators.
Treatment decisions are based on laboratory testing, medical history, and provider judgment.
Important Safety Information
Sermorelin is a prescription-only medication and must be used under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.
Possible side effects may include:
-
Injection site reactions (redness, irritation, discomfort)
-
Headache
-
Flushing
-
Dizziness
-
Nausea
Potential risks may include:
-
Fluid retention or swelling
-
Changes in blood glucose levels
-
Hormonal effects related to growth hormone signaling
Sermorelin may not be appropriate for all patients, including individuals with pregnancy, pituitary disorders, active malignancy, or untreated endocrine conditions. A full medical evaluation is required prior to initiation.

What is NAD+?
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a molecule naturally produced by your body and found in every cell. It plays an important role in normal cellular energy production and other processes that help cells function properly.
Why Is NAD+ Important?
NAD+ is involved in several essential functions, including:
-
Energy production: Helps cells convert nutrients into usable energy.
-
Cellular maintenance: Participates in processes involved in maintaining healthy cells.
-
DNA repair: Supports enzymes involved in the body's normal DNA repair processes.
-
Mitochondrial function: Plays a role in how cells produce energy.
-
Cell signaling: Helps regulate important cellular processes.
NAD+ and Aging
NAD+ metabolism changes as we age, and NAD+ levels may decline in certain tissues. This has led researchers to investigate the potential role of NAD+ in healthy aging and cellular function.
Research into NAD+ therapies and NAD+ precursors is ongoing. While early studies have generated interest, more clinical research is needed to determine the long-term benefits, appropriate dosing, and which patients may benefit.
What Are NAD+ Precursors?
Some products, including nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), are studied because they can participate in pathways involved in NAD+ production.
These compounds are not the same as NAD+ itself, and research is still developing regarding their potential clinical benefits.
Is NAD+ Right for You?
NAD+ is an important part of normal cellular biology and an active area of research in longevity and wellness.
If you're considering NAD+ supplementation or therapy, our medical team can review your health history, medications, and individual goals to determine whether it may be appropriate for you.
Our approach is personalized, medically guided, and focused on evidence-based care.
