Quick Answer
Peptide therapy is used to support metabolism and weight management, recovery from injury, sleep quality, energy, and age-related changes in body composition. The specific peptide depends entirely on the goal — GLP-1 peptides such as semaglutide and tirzepatide are used for weight and metabolic health and are FDA-approved, while other peptides are compounded and carry less clinical trial evidence. At Good Health NC in Knightdale we evaluate what is driving your symptoms before deciding whether a peptide is the right tool at all.
