Description:
The world of peptides therapy is a growing field in medicine ranging from improving skin care, growth hormone, to one’s immune system, to name a few. On PubMed there are over 2.5 million articles on peptides. It is estimated that humans have over 250,000 peptides and we only understand a fraction of them. Peptides are chains of amino acids linked together by a polypeptide bond. The formation of a polypeptide bond by a dehydration synthesis will be reviewed. The difference of a peptide versus a protein will be delineated. In addition the mechanism of action on how peptides work will be reviewed.

Learning Objectives:
• Understand the overall use of Peptides in medicine, how they serve as bio regulators and discuss the science, published studies and chemical make-up of Peptides.
• Learn and understand how to clinically use Peptides within the limits of the Law and within the guidelines of State Medical Boards.
• Understand evidence based science behind the clinical use of Peptides for Delta Induced Sleep, Memory Restoration, Brain Health, Cancer, Immune System Dysregulation and Function, Auto Immune Disease, Increase IGF-1 Levels, Increased Telomere Length, Wound Healing and Sexual Enhancement.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
