Featured Peptides
View all →Semaglutide
Also: Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus
A GLP-1 receptor agonist originally developed for type 2 diabetes, now widely used for weight management. One of the most studied peptides with extensive clinical trial data.
BPC-157
Also: Body Protection Compound-157, PL 14736, Bepecin
A synthetic peptide derived from a protein found in gastric juice. Extensively studied in animal models for wound healing, tendon repair, and gastrointestinal protection. Popular in research and athletic communities.
NAD+
Also: Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, NAD, Coenzyme I
A critical coenzyme found in every cell, essential for energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular signaling. Declining NAD+ levels are linked to aging. Popular for longevity and cognitive support.
Retatrutide
Also: LY3437943, Triple G
An investigational triple agonist targeting GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon receptors. Phase 3 trials show potential for up to 24% body weight reduction, making it the most potent obesity treatment in development.
Tirzepatide
Also: Mounjaro, Zepbound
A dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist that has shown superior weight loss results compared to other GLP-1 agonists. FDA-approved for both type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management.
Glutathione
Also: GSH, L-Glutathione, Reduced Glutathione +1 more
The body's master antioxidant, a tripeptide crucial for detoxification, immune function, and cellular protection. Popular for skin brightening, anti-aging, and overall health optimization.
What Are Peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. While proteins contain 50 or more amino acids, peptides are smaller, typically consisting of 2 to 50 amino acids linked together. This smaller size allows them to be absorbed more easily by the body and target specific biological functions.
Why Are Peptides Exploding in Popularity?
The peptide revolution began with GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy), which demonstrated unprecedented results for weight loss and metabolic health. What started as diabetes medications became a cultural phenomenon when celebrities and millions of everyday people achieved significant weight loss results that were previously only possible through surgery.
But the interest extends far beyond weight loss. Athletes and biohackers have been exploring peptides for years, from healing compounds like BPC-157 and TB-500 that may accelerate recovery, to growth hormone secretagogues that support muscle growth and anti-aging.
Why People Are Using Peptides
Weight Management
GLP-1 agonists have shown 15-25% body weight reduction in clinical trials, rivaling bariatric surgery results.
Recovery & Healing
Peptides like BPC-157 and TB-500 are studied for their potential to accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation.
Performance & Muscle
Growth hormone secretagogues may support muscle growth, fat loss, and improved body composition.
Longevity & Anti-Aging
From skin health to cognitive function, peptides are being researched for their potential anti-aging benefits.
