What are Peptides?
They are a chain of amino acids (the fundamental blocks of proteins). The body makes peptides to perform various functions, including some essential processes. Peptides have many advantages over drugs used for the same purpose, such as:
- Easier to transport anywhere in the body
- Since they are naturally found in the body, they cause fewer side effects
- Safer as the body breaks them down into amino acids that can be recycled

How are Peptides Administered?
During a peptide therapy procedure, the goals and overall health of the individual are considered. Peptides are usually injected every day or on alternate days. You will also be prescribed oral tablets, topical medicines, or creams. Peptides are usually directly administered intravenously into the bloodstream, making them more effective than other modes.
