PEPTIDE THERAPY at Optimize 360


Advanced Peptide Therapy: Targeted Cellular Optimization

True optimization requires more than just balancing hormones; it requires precise communication at the cellular level. At Optimize 360, we utilize Advanced Peptide Therapy to bridge the gap between standard recovery and peak performance. Peptides are naturally occurring biological signaling molecules that act as "switches," instructing your body to perform specific functions it may have slowed down or stopped doing efficiently—from repairing connective tissue to mobilizing stored fat.

Healing, Performance, and Longevity: Whether you are an athlete seeking to accelerate injury recovery, a patient looking to reverse cellular aging, or an individual chasing a leaner physique, our peptide protocols offer a targeted solution. We move beyond generic treatments, employing specific compounds like BPC-157for systemic repair, Tesamorelin and Sermorelin for growth hormone optimization, and SS-31 for mitochondrial health.

Evidence-Based Protocols: We do not rely on trends. We rely on Evidence-Based Medicine. Our medical team curates specific peptide and injectable nutrient combinations (such as L-Carnitine & NAD+) to work alongside your hormone and functional health plans. This creates a synergistic effect that enhances your body’s ability to heal, build muscle, and perform at its absolute limit.

How Peptides Help You Thrive - Optimize 360


NAD+ - Injection

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is the "universal battery charger" of the human body. Found in every single living cell, it is the crucial coenzyme that fuels the mitochondria (your energy power plants) to convert nutrients into electricity (ATP). As we age, our NAD+ levels plummet, causing our cellular batteries to lose their charge—leading to fatigue, brain fog, and slower repair.

  • The Energy Restoration: By refueling the mitochondria, it provides a "clean" energy boost without the jitters of caffeine, often described as a lifting of mental and physical fatigue.
  • The Anti-Aging Shield: It activates sirtuins, a family of "longevity proteins" that repair damaged DNA and regulate inflammation, acting as a brake on the aging process.
  • The Addiction Interrupter: High-dose protocols are famously used to curb cravings and reduce withdrawal symptoms (from alcohol or opiates) by rebalancing brain chemistry.
  • The Brain Fog Cleaner: Users often report a significant sharpening of focus, memory recall, and mental clarity ("wiping the windshield").

$212.5 / 1000mg vial

Dosage

Typical daily range: 50–100 mg once daily subcutaneously (gradual titration from lower doses).

Side Effects
  • The Format: Injectable NAD+ is typically administered Subcutaneously (SubQ) or Intramuscularly (IM).
  • The Frequency: Common protocols involve injecting 2 to 3 times per week.
  • The Sweet Spot: Dosing usually starts low to assess tolerance.
  • Starting: 25 mg to 50 mg per injection.
  • Standard: 50 mg to 100 mg per injection once tolerance is built.

Like any prescribed medication, dosing will vary from person to person so consult your doctor before use.

BPC-157

BPC-157 (Body Protecting Compound) acts as the body's "General Contractor." It doesn't just stimulate one type of cell; it coordinates a massive reconstruction project. By triggering angiogenesis (building new blood vessels), it lays down the logistical supply lines needed to deliver nutrients and oxygen to damaged sites, allowing repairs to happen at a speed that nature normally doesn't permit.

  • The Tendon & Ligament Healer: It is famous for repairing soft tissue injuries that are notoriously slow to heal.
  • Specific Conditions: Rotator cuff tears, Achilles tendonitis, tennis/golfer’s elbow, and ACL/MCL strains.
  • The Muscle Mender: It accelerates the regeneration of muscle fibers after severe strain or tearing.
  • Specific Conditions: Hamstring tears, quad strains, or pectoral tears from weightlifting.
  • The Surgical Safety Net: It is frequently used post-operation to speed up incision healing and reduce internal scar tissue adhesion.
  • Specific Conditions: Post-ACL reconstruction, rotator cuff surgery recovery.
  • The Joint Lubricator: It helps protect cartilage and reduce inflammation within the joint capsule.
  • Specific Conditions: Arthritis flare-ups and general joint stiffness.

Injection: $80/15g Vial

Dosage

Concise summary of the once-daily regimen.

  • Goal: Support tissue-healing and recovery processes based on preclinical evidence[1][3].
  • Schedule: Daily subcutaneous injections for 8–12 weeks (extend to 16 weeks if desired).
  • Dose Range: 200–600 mcg daily with gradual titration.
  • Storage: Keep refrigerated; avoid repeated freeze–thaw.

Like any prescribed medication, dosing will vary from person to person so consult your doctor before use. 

Side Effects
  • Injection Site Pain ("PIP"): Depending on the quality of the product, it can sting or leave a red, itchy welt for a few days.
  • Nausea & Dizziness: Surprisingly, even though you inject it, many people report a wave of nausea or a "flush" of heat and dizziness immediately after taking it. This usually passes in 15 minutes.
  • Fatigue: Some users report hitting a wall of tiredness about an hour after injection. For this reason, many prefer to take it right before bed.

GHK-CU Skin Cream

GHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide-1) is a naturally occurring copper complex that acts as a cellular "architect." Found in high concentrations in young people but declining with age, it doesn’t just patch cracks; it resets your skin's genetic code to a more youthful state.

  • The Collagen Commander: Its primary fame comes from its ability to stimulate the production of collagen(strength) and elastin (snap-back). Users apply it to tighten loose skin, smooth fine lines, and improve skin density.
  • The Repair Crew: It is a potent wound healer. By reducing inflammation and increasing blood vessel formation (angiogenesis), it accelerates the healing of acne scars, surgical wounds, and burns.
  • The Scalp Stimulator: When applied to the scalp, it can revitalize hair follicles, often effectively anchoring hair and reducing shedding.

Skin Cream: $197.5

Dosage
  • The Application: Apply a small amount (1–2 pumps) to clean, dry skin twice daily (morning and night).
  • Do not mix with Vitamin C. Strong antioxidants like L-Ascorbic Acid can break down the copper peptide, rendering it useless. Apply them at opposite times of the day (e.g., Vitamin C in the morning, GHK-Cu at night).

Like any prescribed medication, dosing will vary from person to person so consult your doctor before use.

Side Effects
  • The "Copper Uglies": This is a slang term for a rare paradoxical effect where using too much product leads to skin sagging or increased wrinkling. This happens when the peptide breaks down damaged collagen faster than your body can replace it. Less is often more.
  • The Irritation: Mild redness, dryness, or itching at the application site is common when starting.
  • The Zinc Balance: High absorption of copper can theoretically lower zinc levels in the body. Many users take a small Zinc supplement to maintain mineral balance.

L-Carnitine - Injectable

L-Carnitine functions as a biological ferryman. While your body may have plenty of fuel (fat) waiting to be burned, that fuel cannot cross the wall of your cells’ power plants (the mitochondria) on its own. L-Carnitine picks up fatty acids and shuttles them inside the furnace to be incinerated for energy.

  • The Fat Transporter: Its main role is metabolic transport. It moves long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, allowing your body to burn stored fat for fuel rather than just glucose.
  • The Brain Boost (ALCAR): The "Acetyl" version (Acetyl-L-Carnitine) can cross the blood-brain barrier. It is used to sharpen focus, reduce brain fog, and act as a neuroprotectant against aging.
  • The Endurance Shield: In athletes, it helps spare muscle glycogen (keeping your gas tank full longer) and clears out lactate waste products, speeding up recovery between sets or sprints.

$75/10ml vial

Dosage
  • The Route Matters: L-Carnitine has notoriously poor oral bioavailability (your body absorbs very little of it when swallowed).
  • Oral: Typically 2,000 mg to 4,000 mg per day. It is best taken with a carbohydrate meal, as insulin helps push it into the muscle cells.
  • Injectable: Because it bypasses the gut, doses are much lower—usually 500 mg to 1,000 mg injected intramuscularly (IM) or subcutaneously.
  • The Timing: Most effective when taken 30–60 minutes before exercise to maximize fat oxidation during activity.

Like any prescribed medication, dosing will vary from person to person so consult your doctor before use. 

Side Effects
  • The "Fish" Factor: High oral doses can be metabolized by gut bacteria into a compound called TMA (trimethylamine), which can make your sweat or breath smell faintly like fish. (Injectable forms largely bypass this issue).
  • The GI Rumble: Nausea, stomach cramps, and diarrhea are common when taking high doses orally.
  • The Heart Marker: Chronic high oral use may raise TMAO levels, a marker some studies associate with increased cardiovascular risk, though this is debated in healthy populations.

Sermorelin

Think of Sermorelin not as the fuel, but as the spark plug. Unlike synthetic HGH (which floods the engine with gas), Sermorelin simply tells your pituitary gland—the body’s master control center—to "start your engines." It is a peptide secretagogue, a biological whisper that encourages your body to produce its own Human Growth Hormone (HGH) naturally.

  • The Classic Use: Historically, it was the "growth spurt" signal used to diagnose and treat children with growth restrictions.
  • The Modern Use: Today, it is widely utilized in wellness and anti-aging circles as a "fountain of vitality." Adults use it to reverse the slow drift of aging, aiming to trigger:
  • Increased lean muscle mass and fat loss.
  • Deeper, more restorative sleep (REM cycles).
  • Faster recovery from exercise and injury.
  • Improved skin elasticity and collagen production

Injection: $212.5 - 15mg vial

Dosage
  • The Method: A subcutaneous injection (using a tiny insulin needle) into the belly fat or thigh.
  • The Timing: Strictly before bed. Since your body naturally pulses growth hormone during deep sleep, taking it at night syncs the medication with your biological rhythm.
  • The Protocol: A common regimen is 0.2 mg to 0.3 mg (200–300 mcg) daily, and gradually titrate up with doctor oversight.
  • The "Cycle": Many providers prescribe a "5 days on, 2 days off" schedule to prevent the pituitary gland from becoming desensitized to the signal.

Like any prescribed medication, dosing will vary from person to person so consult your doctor before use.

Side Effects

Because Sermorelin stimulates your body’s natural production rather than replacing it, side effects are generally milder than synthetic HGH, but they do exist.

  • The "Ouch": The most common complaint is injection site reactions—redness, swelling, or a "bee sting" pain at the injection spot.
  • The Head Rush: Flushing of the face and temporary dizziness immediately after injection (often described as a "warm rush").
  • The Nuisances: Mild headaches, nausea, or hyperactivity (difficulty falling asleep if taken too early)

Tesamorelin

Tesamorelin is the heavy hitter of the GHRH (Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone) family. Think of it as a "Sculptor"that specifically chisels away at the most stubborn, dangerous fat in the human body: visceral adipose tissue. Unlike other weight loss aids that shrink you everywhere, Tesamorelin specifically targets the deep, firm belly fat that wraps around your organs.

  • The Belly Fat Specialist: It is the only FDA-approved peptide for reducing excess abdominal fat in HIV-associated lipodystrophy.
  • The "Hard" Fat Eraser: In the wellness world, it is prized for its ability to attack visceral fat—the hard, protruding belly that diet and exercise often fail to budge.
  • The Metabolic Reset: By reducing this deep fat, it often improves metabolic markers, such as lowering triglycerides and improving the body's muscle-to-fat ratio.
  • The Anabolic Bonus: Because it stimulates growth hormone, users often report mild increases in lean muscle tone alongside the fat loss.

$262.5 / 12mg vial

Dosage
  • Goal: Reduce visceral adipose tissue and improve lipid profiles through sustained GH/IGF-1 elevation[3][4].
  • Schedule: Daily subcutaneous injections for 12–26 weeks (extendable to 52 weeks with medical supervision)[3].
  • Dose: 2 mg (2000 mcg) daily after Week 1 titration.
  • Storage: Keep refrigerated; avoid freeze-thaw.

Like any prescribed medication, dosing will vary from person to person so consult your doctor before use.

Side Effects
  • The Joint Ache: Arthralgia (joint pain) and stiffness are common complaints as the body adjusts to higher growth hormone levels.
  • The Sugar Warning: It can increase blood sugar levels (insulin resistance). Users—especially those who are pre-diabetic—should monitor their fasting glucose / HbA1c levels regularly.
  • The Local Reaction: It is known to cause more injection site reactions (redness, itching, bumps) than other peptides like BPC-157.
  • Water Retention: Mild swelling (edema) in the hands or feet may occur initially.

SS-31 - Injection

SS-31 (Elamipretide) acts as a specialized mechanic for your cellular engines. Unlike other peptides that push the accelerator, SS-31 pops the hood and fixes the engine itself. It specifically targets cardiolipin, a structural fat in the inner lining of your mitochondria. By stabilizing this lining, it stops "energy leaks" and allows your cells to produce power (ATP) efficiently again, effectively restoring an old, sputtering engine to a smooth hum.

  • The Energy Restorer: It is primarily used to treat "mitochondrial dysfunction"—the root cause of fatigue where cells simply can't generate enough power. It revives energy levels without stimulation.
  • The Heart Helper: Clinical trials have explored its ability to improve heart failure by helping cardiac muscle cells generate the immense energy they need to pump efficiently.
  • The Age-Reversal: Improves exercise tolerance, muscle mass, and fatigue resistance. Anti-aging potential by restoring mitochondrial energetics.
  • The Brain Defogger and Migraine Killer: By fixing the energy crisis in brain cells, it shows promise in clearing "cognitive fog" and protecting against neurodegenerative decline. Shows therapeutic potential in migraine, pulmonary fibrosis, and burn injury recovery by reducing apoptosis and oxidative damage.

$562.5 - 300mg/6ml vial

Dosage

The Dosage: Unlike potent hormones dosed in micrograms (mcg), SS-31 requires milligrams (mg).

  • Goal: Support mitochondrial function, enhance ATP production, and reduce oxidative stress in tissues with high metabolic demand[1][2].
  • Schedule: Daily subcutaneous injections for 8–12 weeks (clinical trials typically 4–12 weeks).
  • Dose Range: 5–10 mg daily (standard); 15–20 mg daily (advanced, under supervision).
  • Storage: Keep refrigerated at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F).
  • The Cycle: Because it doesn't rely on receptors (it binds to fats), your body doesn't build a tolerance easily. However, due to cost and injection fatigue, users often cycle it 4 weeks on, 4 weeks off.
  • The Location: Subcutaneous injection into fatty tissue (stomach or thigh).

Like any prescribed medication, dosing will vary from person to person so consult your doctor before use. 

Side Effects

SS-31 is generally considered to be a safe medication, which has minimal but mild side effects. Many of the adverse effects that people experience tend to be at the site of injection. However, there hasn’t been enough research on the long-term impact of using SS-31.

  • Injectionsite reactions (most common): Mildtomoderate redness, itching, or transient discomfort at injection site; typically resolves within hours[4][6].
  • Approximately 80% of patients in clinical trials experienced mild injectionsite reactions[6].
  • No doselimiting toxicities or serious adverse events directly attributed to SS31 in published trials[4][5].
  • Longterm safety data beyond 12 weeks remains limited; extended use requires monitoring.

DISCLAIMER: Prescription of these medications requires a telemedicine consultation and a review of your lab results by the practitioner.
