Peptides are a short string of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. our body makes peptides that serve important functions in some of your body's most necessary processes. For instance, insulin is a 51-amino-acid-long peptide hormone that helps your cells take in sugars from your food to use for metabolism and store them in your liver.
Researchers have been working to develop peptides as treatments for some medical conditions since 1921. In fact, insulin was the first peptide ever made in a lab by scientists (called a synthetic peptide), and it's been used to treat people with type 1 diabetes since 1923.
Peptide drugs may have some advantages over other drugs because they may: Be easier to send where they need to go in your body Have fewer side effects Be safer because when your body breaks them down, their byproducts are amino acids that your body can recycle. We have access to several peptides for use in research and experimentation.While many choose to use our peptides for injection purposes, to replace peptides from your physician, we do not warranty or certify the safety of the compounds for that use. We ARE NOT a pharmacy, nor a medical drug provider.
