What Are Peptides?

Peptides are small protein chains that act as natural messengers in your body, regulating functions such as metabolism, inflammation, tissue repair, and hormone balance. By using precise peptide blends, we can naturally optimize your body to restore balance, improve function, and support long-term health—without overstimulation or harsh medications.

Our Most Popular Peptides for Recovery, Longevity & Performance

Here are the peptides we offer, which have been carefully selected for their safety, efficacy, and ability to enhance healing, performance, and anti-aging support.

  • BPC-157 / TB-500 / GHK-Cu / KPV (“KLOW” or “GLOW” Repair Stack)

    This combination promotes whole-body recovery, reduces inflammation, and stimulates collagen repair. Patients use this stack for joint stiffness, slow healing, skin rejuvenation, and muscle recovery.

    • BPC-157: Speeds up tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and promotes gut health.
    • TB-500: Improves Flexibility, accelerates tissue regeneration, and reduces scar tissue.
    • GHK-Cu: Boosts collagen production, improves skin elasticity, and promotes hair growth.
    • KPV: Reduces inflammation in the gut, improves skin appearance, and promotes tissue healing.

    Benefits: Faster recovery, joint comfort, healthier skin, and improved muscle performance.

  • CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin / Tesamorelin

    These peptides are growth hormone secretagogues, meaning they naturally stimulate the release of growth hormone (GH) from your pituitary gland. This improves energy, lean muscle mass, fat loss, and sleep quality, while also reducing visceral fat and promoting immune balance.

    Benefits: Fat loss, muscle growth, mental clarity, sleep quality, and anti-aging support.

  • Cerebro Ultra Injectable Blend

    This powerful brain and energy blend includes NAD⁺, Semax, Selank, Oxytocin, BDNF, BPC-157, Alpha-GPC, Dihexa, and Huperzine-A. This unique combination enhances mental clarity, focus, mood, and cognitive performance, providing the ultimate boost to brain health.

    Benefits: Enhanced focus, memory, stress resilience, and overall mental performance.

NAD Therapy and Glutathione For Additional Support

NAD⁺ Therapy

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD⁺) is crucial for energy production, mitochondrial health, and DNA repair. NAD⁺ declines with age, leading to fatigue, slower metabolism, and brain fog. NAD⁺ injections restore cellular vitality, support recovery, and improve overall anti-aging.
Benefits: Sustained energy, sharper cognition, improved mood, and enhanced recovery.

Glutathione Therapy

Glutathione is the body’s master antioxidant, helping detoxify the liver, reduce oxidative stress, and support immune health. Glutathione therapy can also improve skin brightness, enhance recovery, and combat inflammation.

Benefits: Detoxification, reduced inflammation, immune support, and improved skin quality.

Peptides for Longevity &
Micro Dosing Protocols

In addition to optimizing muscle recovery, peptides can be used for cognitive enhancement, anti-inflammatory benefits, and overall longevity. We also offer micro-dosing protocols, including GLP-1 agonists and regenerative peptides that help with:

  • Metabolism optimization
  • Cognitive clarity
  • Energy support
  • Longevity and aging gracefully

These protocols are customized to your unique biology and goals, helping you stay performing at your peak, whether you’re focused on weight loss, muscle gain, or overall vitality.

    Category: Cognition, Memory, Brain Health Mechanism of Action:

    • NAD+: Essential for mitochondrial function, cellular energy production, and DNA repair. NAD+ Treasure Valley Pain & Hormones – Website Optimization & SEO Implementation Guide levels decline with age, and supplementation is believed to enhance energy levels, improve cognitive function, and slow the aging process.
    • Alpha GPC: Increases levels of acetylcholine in the brain, which is essential for cognitive functions such as memory, learning, and mental focus. It also has neuroprotective effects, preventing cognitive decline
    • BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor): A protein that supports neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and overall brain health, promoting learning and memory
    • Dihexa: involves its interaction with hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its receptor, c-Met. By mimicking the effects of HGF, Dihexa can stimulate the c-Met receptor, leading to a cascade of events that promote neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity. Being a Wirst-class compound that is orally active, Dihexa works through penetrating the blood-brain barrier and also works through facilitating one’s memory consolidation and even memory retrieval.
    • Selank: Selank is a synthetic peptide with anti-anxiety and cognitive-enhancing properties. It works by modulating GABA and serotonin levels, providing anxiolytic effects without sedation. Selank also has immunomodulatory properties, helping the body cope with stress-related immune suppression, and improves memory and learning by boosting cognitive function
    • Semax: Semax is a synthetic peptide that enhances memory, learning, and mental clarity. It increases the levels of BDNF, a protein that supports the survival of existing neurons and promotes the growth of new neurons and synapses. Semax is also neuroprotective, reducing oxidative stress and inWlammation, and is used for treating cognitive disorders and ischemic conditions
    • Huperzine: Huperzine’s mechanism of action is multifaceted and contributes to its potential therapeutic beneWits for cognitive and neurodegenerative disorders. Acetylcholinesterase Inhibition (AChEI). By blocking AChEI, Huperzine effectively increases the amount of acetylcholine available in the synaptic cleft, leading to enhanced signaling in cholinergic pathways. This is particularly relevant for conditions like Alzheimer’s disease (AD), where cholinergic deWicits are observed. In addition to its AChEI properties, Huperzine demonstrates neuroprotective effects through various pathways.
  • Endotest (Oral)

    Endotest Oral (30-ml)
    Category: Sexual Health & Muscle Building

    This is a potential replacement for HCG, as the combination of products in EndoTest is gonadorelin and oxytocin. This combination is designed to provide multiple avenues through which to elicit signaling of GnRH from the hypothalamus to the pituitary gland, which in turn releases luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone.

    Oxytocin has been shown to act in the testis through a specific oxytocin receptor and will increase basal testosterone production with no effect on LH stimulated testosterone production. It has been prescribed off-label to increase sociability, and to increase sex drive and sexual function. Oxytocin can also induce anti-stress effects such as reduction in blood pressure and cortisol levels. It has also been shown to promote bone density in women.

    Mechanism of Action:
    GHK-cu is a copper-binding peptide that promotes wound healing, stimulates collagen production, and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. It is also involved in gene expression related to tissue repair and regeneration. GHK-cu has been shown to improve skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, and enhance hair growth. Additionally, it has applications in reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, potentially slowing the aging process.

  • IGf-1 LR3 (Injectable)

    IGf-1 LR3 (Injectable) 1mg in 3mL glass vial

    Category: Growth factor, muscle growth
    Mechanism of Action: IGF-1 LR3 is a more potent and longer-acting form of IGF-1.
