Peptide therapy is becoming well known within the public sector. For example most effective skin creams on the market will contain peptides to help skin stay youthful.
Athletes have been aware of Peptide use for decades to boost performance and recovery.
Peptides are composed of amino acids of which our bodies contain over 7000 and are found in all cells of the body.
Peptide therapy refers to restoring the number of peptides to stimulate cellular growth systems within our bodies for specific targets we want to achieve.
Using a specific protocol we can produce a specific reaction either hormonal or enzymatic to treat a variety of conditions.
Typically administration is by SubQ or IM injection, nasal spray, Sublingual drops, capsules and topical creams.
Benefits of peptide therapy include:
· Boost hormonal and enzyme levels
· Reduce the signs of aging by improving skin texture
· Helps to stimulate fat burning, reduce cellulite and maintain healthy weight management
· Elevates athletic performance
· Proliferates muscle mass
· Helps reverse sexual dysfunction and increase libido
· Increase energy
· Improves mental health
· Promote healthy body function
· Stimulates healing, repair and regeneration processes of the body
· Curbs joint and muscle pain
· Enhance cognitive function and memory
· Can help safeguard against age related diseases
Peptide therapy has been shown to be an effective and generally safe practice with side effects typically being dose dependent.
There is no best peptide therapy as its effectiveness is down to the individual’s condition and specific targets.
It’s advised to consult with a healthcare professional before peptide therapy use, as peptides classification is research products.
Learn MorePeptides come to you in a lyophilised, freeze-dried form. Like this, the peptides will remain stable for around 30 days at room temperature. Although if not going to use immediately it is recommended to store in a refrigerator. If they are not going to be used within this time then they can be stored in a freezer where they will remain stable for approximately 48 months.
Please ensure that your freezer is not ‘frost free’ or ‘auto defrosting’ as constant freeze/thaw cycles will degrade the peptides over time.
Storage of your peptides once you have mixed them.
Once the peptides have been mixed or reconstituted into a liquid solution they must be refrigerated at a temperature between 2-8c.
If stored at room temperature some peptides may begin to degrade after as little as 24 hours.
For Your Information
All our peptides are stored at -2 / -8 until the day of dispatch.
When mixing, apply the water slowly and carefully to the powder avoiding making bubbles. Extreme care needs to be practiced when reconstituting as the amino acid structures are very fragile which makes incorrect techniques for reconstituting can break these structures.
Do not shake peptides aggressively if any powder is left in the vial after a few minutes, as this also can break the fragile structure of the amino acids effectively rendering them useless and ineffective. Just gently swirl till mixed, great care needs to be used.
When storing in the refrigerator make sure they are in a stable place.

If for some reason you don’t intend using the peptides for some time you can store them in the freezer
Learn More HerePeptides are stored in a lyophilized (a freeze dried fine powder) state and so need reconstitution before they can be used. Sterile water with a bacteriostatic agent (0.9% Benzyl Alcohol) added is generally (except for IGF1 type peptides, see below) the best choice, as it both extends the storage life of the reconstituted product and also allows multiple doses to be drawn up out of the vial, which is more convenient and cost-effective in a research context. However, for IGF1 DES and IGF1 Long R3, Acetic Acid 0.9% should be used for reconstitution due due to buffering issues and poor solubility when using bacteriostatic water.
Looking at the various diluting agents in more detail:
Bacteriostatic Water
This is a sterile, nonpyrogenic preparation of water for injection containing 0.9% (9 mg/mL) of benzyl alcohol added as a bacteriostatic preservative. It is supplied in a multiple-dose container from which repeated withdrawals may be made to dilute or dissolve drugs for injection. The pH is 5.7 (4.5 to 7.0).
Bacteriostatic water is used to reconstitute all peptides, although for IGF1 derivatives Acetic Acid is recommended.

Acetic Acid Water
Acetic acid water benefits over Bacteriostatic water is it can help increase solubility of certain peptides and keep them more stable.
