Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. Some key things to know about peptides:
At Hormone Health Center in Glencoe, we offer peptide therapy to help patients address issues like:
* Promote fat loss - Certain peptides can support fat metabolism and weight loss. * Build lean muscle - Some peptides encourage muscle growth and definition.
* Improve sleep quality - Some peptides regulate circadian rhythms. * Support immunity - Effects on immune function for certain peptides. * Increase energy - Peptides that enhance cellular metabolism. * Slow aging - Anti-aging and protective effects.

Since some therapeutic peptides act by stimulating the body's natural growth hormone (GH) production, it's important to understand the signs and symptoms of growth hormone deficiency (GHD):
- Increased body fat, especially abdominal fat - Muscle loss and weakness - Bone loss (osteoporosis) - Joint pain and injury from weak connective tissue - Hair loss - Slow wound healing - Cardiovascular issues like high cholesterol
- Depression - Memory loss - Lack of motivation - Fatigue, low energy - Poor sleep
- Insulin resistance
If you experience multiple symptoms consistently, growth hormone deficiency may be indicated. Blood testing can confirm. At Hormone Health Center, we screen for hormone imbalances and determine if peptide therapy could help resolve deficiency symptoms.
To understand the benefits of growth hormone peptides, it helps to cover some growth hormone basics first:
As we age, growth hormone production naturally goes down, resulting in lower IGF-1 levels. Common reasons include:
If adults are not addressing lifestyle factors, growth hormone deficiency advances with age.
Therapeutic growth hormone peptides help counteract declining GH/IGF-1 levels by stimulating the body's own growth hormone production.
Some benefits include:
So in summary, addressing low GH with peptides can help restore wellness and vitality on multiple fronts.
There are a few main categories of bioactive peptides that boost GH production:
