Peptide Therapy in NJ
At ZWM, we seek to uncover and treat the root causes behind immunological imbalance rather than simply employing a band-aid approach. Environmental toxins, heavy metals, chronic infections, and leaky membranes- can all be contributing to the pathogenesis of autoimmune conditions. Through advanced diagnostics, our team can effectively pinpoint and treat the root causes.
What are Peptides?
Peptides are naturally occurring short chains of amino acids. Within the body, they act as messenger molecules to the body’s cells, initiating a range of cellular functions. Each specific peptide binds to its matching receptor on the surface of a cell, causing a biological response. Peptides can inhibit or promote certain cellular functions by this mechanism to achieve a desired outcome.
What are the Benefits
of Peptide Therapy?
Peptide therapy supports the immune system by stimulating the production of T cells. Maintaining healthy T cell count is vital for combating viruses, bacteria, fungi, and malignant cells.
Peptide therapy can help to modulate inflammatory pathways, reducing swelling and pain in inflammatory conditions. These peptides can facilitate greater mobility with lower risk of injury.
Certain peptides have shown tissue healing capabilities through angiogenesis and multiple types of tissue repair such as tendon, ligament, muscle, and bone.
Cognitive peptides can help to improve memory, concentration, and mental alertness. These peptides encourage neuronal plasticity, the generation of new neuronal connections and neuronal remodeling.
Gut healing peptides such as BPC 157 have a protective effect on the lining of the GI tract. This peptide can facilitate repair in cases of leaky gut as well as in inflammatory gut disorders.
Certain peptides are critical in metabolism regulation. These peptides can help to control appetite, boost metabolic rate, and maintain healthy muscle mass.

How Do I Know if Peptide Therapy is Right For Me?
Peptide therapy has vast benefits as it encompasses several different peptides with various functions. In your initial consultation, the directing physician will establish if peptide therapy may be beneficial.
Are there any Side Effects of Peptide Therapy?
As our bodies naturally generate these peptides, side effects are typically mild. The most common side effect is irritation and bruising around the peptide injection site. Other side effects are specific to each peptide. The directing physician will discuss any potential side effects of the prescribed peptide with the patient before use.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Peptide therapy duration will depend on the condition being treated. Peptides may be prescribed for a couple of weeks to months depending on the chronicity and severity of the condition. Peptides come in oral and injectable forms.
