#9: Ryan Smith discusses Peptides, a whole new category of 'biosimilar' proteins addressing health for athletes to Alzheimer's.

Ryan Smith co-founded Tailor Made Compounding Pharmacy with a passionate interest in offering peptide therapy, a category of biosimilar proteins with >100 FDA-approved products and 10,000+ products in development, many of which we prescribe to patients at the Center for Healing Neurology. In the first part of this show, we talk about what they are, how they work, why peptides as a category have such few side effects and have such a positive safety profile. In the second part of the show, we dive into specific peptides including neurocognitive and mood peptides (Cerebrolysin, Selank, Semax, Dihexa, FGLL), peptides to target the immune system for chronic disease like Lyme as well as acute viral infection including the flu (Thymosin Alpha-1, ARA 290), peptides for repair & recovery (thymosin beta 4, BPC-157), peptides for mitochondrial support (SS31, MOTS-C) and cosmetic and beauty products including topicals with botox-like action (GHK-Cu, Argeline). Don't miss this incredibly informative show for the innovative ways you can address your health needs and goals.
