Peptide therapy uses short chains of amino acids, called peptides, to target and support specific functions in the body. Because peptides occur naturally in the body, they can be used to help regulate biological processes, promote healing, and improve overall health. This therapy has gained attention for its potential in areas such as weight management, metabolic health, immune support, recovery, and anti-aging.
One of the most well-known peptides for weight management is semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. Semaglutide works by helping regulate appetite, slow digestion, and improve blood sugar control—often resulting in significant and sustainable weight loss when paired with lifestyle modifications. It is especially effective for individuals who have struggled with traditional weight loss methods or have weight-related health concerns.
In addition to weight management, peptide therapies are being explored for many other uses, including:
- Supporting cardiovascular health
- Enhancing immune system function
- Accelerating wound healing and recovery
- Supporting muscle repair and regeneration
- Reducing inflammation
- Promoting healthy skin and anti-aging effects
