You've probably heard about peptides, and you may be wondering, “What are peptides? Why do I need to know about them?” At the end of this episode, you’ll have the answers to these questions, plus so much more.

 

We’re diving into the basics of peptides, and I'm going to answer some very commonly asked questions about both peptides and bioregulators. We’re covering everything from the most important things to remember about peptides, to the different ways peptides can be administered. If you want to learn how peptides work, the benefits of BPC-157, and why most peptides are not FDA approved, you’ll want to tune into this episode.



What we discuss:

00:03:34: What are peptides?

00:04:26 Insulin is a very well known peptide

00:05:33: Why most peptides are not FDA approved

00:07:49: Why there’s not a lot of information about peptides in healthcare

00:09:35: How do peptides work? 

00:11:20: The benefits of BPC-157

00:14:14: Using peptides topically

00:17:49: Important things to remember about peptides 

00:20:07: The importance of getting peptides from a trusted supplier

00:21:27: Bioregulator peptides

00:23:59: Why bioregulators are highly bio-available orally 

00:29:51: Where to find bioregulator peptide supplements 



Key Takeaways:

  • Bioregulator peptides have been shown to help to extend human life, to reverse biological age and to restore function.

  • When you have a string of amino acids that's either 50 amino acids or less, that is automatically called a peptide.

  • The most common way that peptides are introduced into the body is by subcutaneous injection.

  • Copper peptides are very powerful when used topically, which is why a lot of beauty products incorporate copper peptides.
