Peptide Therapy  San Jose, CA

Peptide Therapy is a treatment meant to improve the quality of life and longevity in patients by reversing the effects of aging. Many people turned to this exciting therapy so they can enjoy improved sleep, increased muscle mass, renewed sex drive, and an overall slowing of the aging process. The procedure employs specific amino acid sequences called peptides that communicate with different parts of the body. They do their part to enhance body functions by binding the receptors on the cell’s surface where they will signal optimal messages for health improvements. The results enhance physical performance, emotional balance, and mental well-being. The therapy is gaining more traction by physicians and patients alike as it is a highly effective treatment.

What Exactly is Peptide Therapy?

Peptides are short-chain amino acids found naturally in the body. [1] These acids are highly important as they help perform vital functions in the body. Having therapy with peptides directs other cells what to do by replacing or mimicking the functions of the naturally occurring peptides. These peptides have the power to rewrite cell chemistry and promote restoration, encourage anabolism, and enhance homeostasis. For instance, some peptides have helped people to lose weight by stimulating the breakdown of visceral fat.

As of January 2015, there were over 60 FDA-approved peptide medications. Some of these drugs can be administered intravenously, topical cream, nasal spray, or oral tablets. Here are some examples: [2]

CJC-1295

Similar to the atomic structure found in growth hormone-releasing hormones like Sermorelin, this elixir is a new and improved version that stimulates your pituitary gland. The formula is composed of 29 key amino acids. They have the power to spur growth hormone levels in adult patients.[3] It can enhance the physical and mental peaks that the patient can achieve, along with improved lean muscle mass, reduction of fat stores, and slowing down the aging process.

Dr. Tran will prescribe CJC-1295 to be taken at least 30 minutes before you go to bed. We recommend taking it at night to maximize the body’s natural hormonal cycles during your REM sleep. Patients should not take it if they are pregnant or breastfeeding.

BPC-157

BPC-157 is a naturally occurring protective protein found in the stomach. This therapy has helped countless patients break free from the nagging realities of joint pain, injuries, and organ damage. It vastly improves joint mobility by accelerating angiogenic repair, a process where newly formed blood vessels create granulation tissue.

Ibutamoren (MK-677)

This is a highly potent, long-acting, oral growth hormone supplement. Its chemical makeup mimics the growth hormone stimulating action of the hormone ghrelin—making it highly useful for patients looking to add lean muscle and mass. It can be used in conjunction with hormone replacement therapy to enhance its effects. Patients have also enjoyed better sleep, higher bone density, and increased libido.

Ipamorelin Acetate

This bioidentical hormone therapy is safe and effective. It allows patients to enjoy the feelings of looking young again. Considered to be a Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide (GHRP), this formula is composed of five amino acids that stimulate the pituitary gland release of natural growth hormones and suppress somatostatin, a growth inhibiting hormone. Patients have enjoyed Ipamorelin Acetate for its ability to burn fat, increase muscle and bone mass, and strengthen the cardiovascular system.

While it takes on many forms the most common way to administer the peptide is through injections. This is because it enters the bloodstream at a faster rate and can be utilized by the body quicker.

With PT, the body can enrich hormone levels that were similar to when you were younger. It provides the aging body with increased muscle mass and a boosted metabolism which helps burn fat.

Is PT a Steroid?

It is easy to mix the two as they both provide patients with increased muscle mass and density. However, their chemical composition is remarkably different. While steroids increase muscle, it comes with a host of side effects that PT doesn’t have. With steroid use, you may feel bouts of anger, and develop female-like breasts, and the hormonal imbalance is much more evident.
