What Are Peptides?
Peptides are the building blocks of various proteins found throughout the body. These small structures are made up of a string of naturally occuring amino acids and help to stimulate important cellular processes.
What Is Peptide Therapy?
Peptide therapy involves the administration of specific peptides that are utilized to treat a wide range of ailments, including weight loss, providing pain relief, and improving cognitive function, to name a few. Their cell-stimulating nature and small size allow peptides to work in direct ways on various parts of the body.

Pain Relief
Peptide therapy has become a revolutionary development for the treatment of chronic pain relief and provides a safe alternative to addictive opioid medications. Some potent peptide therapies used to treat chronic pain relief include TB-500, BPC-157, Glutamine, and Epitalon.
Soft Tissue Repair
Certain peptide therapies cause regenerative and repair properties, as well as causing increased angiogenesis. This makes for great healing peptides and aids in soft tissue repair.
Weight Loss
GLP-1 agonist medications such as semaglutide are a common form of peptide therapy that has become increasingly popular in recent years. This once-a-week injection improves insulin resistance, increases satiety, and slows gastric emptying.
Cognitive Function
Peptides play an important role in cell signaling within the body, including brain cells. Specific peptide therapies can be used to help stimulate the growth and regeneration of cells within the nervous system, thereby improving the brain’s plasticity and overall cognitive function.
Who’s A Good Candidate For Peptide Therapy?
Peptide therapy is a relatively safe and effective form of treatment for several different medical conditions and symptoms. Therefore, many individuals who are living with a chronic condition may benefit from peptide therapy. Your healthcare provider at Meeting Point Health will help determine if and what peptide therapy is right for you.
How Peptide Therapy Can Be Administered
Capsule
Some peptide therapies are available in capsule form, typically taken daily by mouth.
Cream
Peptide creams are often used for dermatological uses for several benefits for your skin health.
Nasal Spray
Certain peptide therapies can be administered via nasal sprays to deliver through absorption within the nose, through the lungs, and directly into the bloodstream.
Nebulizer
Similar to the nasal spray mechanism, peptides are available in nebulizer form, which delivers the peptides straight to the bloodstream through absorption within the lungs.
Subcutaneous Injections
Some peptides are administered by injections in the subcutaneous tissue in various locations throughout the body. Most commonly through the adipose tissue in the abdomen, thigh, or arm.
Differences Between Peptide Injections And Oral Supplements
The majority of peptide therapies are delivered through an IV or by subcutaneous injections, rather than by oral supplements. This is largely because peptides are too big to be properly absorbed through the intestine walls after oral ingestion.
Peptide Therapy Recovery Process
Peptide therapy has a very mild side effect profile and is tolerated well in the majority of patients. There is typically little to no downtime after receiving peptide therapy.

Some of the most commonly recommended peptides include those prescribed for weight loss and those to improve strength and build lean muscle mass. Some individuals benefit from growth hormone stimulating peptides, many of which encourage the pituitary gland to release natural growth hormones into the body. It is best to speak to a medical professional who can evaluate your overall health and recommend the best peptide treatment for you.
Peptide therapies vary in effectiveness based on the individual treatment being used and what ailment it is aiming to treat. Overall, peptide therapy has proven to be a very safe and effective form of treatment.
Peptide therapy is designed to be a long-term solution for your health concerns, not just something that treats your acute symptoms. Most patients will need several courses of peptides each year to maintain the benefits of previous injections.
