What are Peptides?
Peptides are a class of compounds made up of short chains of amino acids. Longer chains of amino acids are classified as proteins.
Peptides have huge therapeutic potential and may transform various areas of medicine. Many natural peptides play key roles in various biochemical processes, such as cellular function and metabolism, hormone balance, tissue generation, and more.
How do Peptides work for longevity?
There are several different ways that peptides may offer benefits for longevity, anti-aging, and skin care.
Because peptides are made of the structural units used to build new tissues (amino acids), they play key roles in strengthening and regenerating skin, muscle, and connective tissue cells. Peptides may also signal the body to produce more connective proteins, like collagen and elastin, which give skin and other connective tissues their firmness and flexibility.
