What are Peptides?

Simply put peptides are naturally occurring molecules in the body, they make up amino acids and proteins. Their role is to act as signaling agents to communicate what is needed in the body to build, repair and turn on and off cells. As our cells age, their function diminishes, peptides are used to amplify these signals and return to homeostasis (balance). The very first peptide discovered was Insulin in 1926. They have been studies throughout medical history and known to be safe, effective and well-tolerated.

Pharmaceutical Terms

Since peptides are naturally occurring in the body, they cannot be patented. Pharmaceutical companies re-engineer peptides to have longer shelf lives by adding preservatives and other molecules. After spending millions of dollars researching them, they can then brand and patent their products, These products are known to use as Ozempic, Wegovy, Monjourno, etc. 

Currently, in the US, there is very little regulation of peptide manufacturers. That will soon be changing to protect consumers from the mass production of low quality peptides to make a profit.

Here are few terms to be aware of

3rd Party Tested

These are research-grade compounds verified by independent labs for purity, identity, and concentration. In other words, a separate company tests and verifies what is in each product.

Certificate of Analysis (COA)

A crucial document detailing its identity, quality, and purity, confirming it meets specifications for research or clinical use. These must be present upon request by any person or company that wishes to verify the products authenticity.

CGMP Certified

Current Good Manufacturing Practices certification isn't a single certificate but a regulatory standard enforced by agencies like the FDA to ensure products are consistently made, controlled, and safe, preventing contamination, errors, and mix-ups through strong quality systems. Companies undergo audits by accredited third parties or regulators to verify compliance, demonstrating commitment to quality, purity, and efficacy, which builds consumer trust and opens market access.

FDA Registered

A facility that manufactures, repacks, or re-labels products (drugs, medical devices, food) has provided its contact and product information to the FDA. It is a mandatory administrative process, not an endorsement,, certification, or approval of product safety by the agency.

DTC

Direct to Consumer is a business model where manufacturers sell directly to the patient. Peptides, like prescription medications, should be prescribed under the direction of a medical provider such as an NP, PA or MD. Proper medical history intake and labwork should be done prior to starting Peptides.
