Peptide Therapy for Men: The Secret to Vitality at Any Age

By Rebecca Steiner, Certified Health Coach and Medical Assistant

As we age, we begin to experience a decline in how our body looks and functions. For men this can mean a lower libido, decreased lean muscle mass, decreased strength, energy, and weight gain. Fortunately, there is a way to prevent and even reverse these undesirable symptoms of aging. Peptides have been shown to exert incredible anti-aging effects that include:

·       Improvement in erectile dysfunction 

·       Reduced body fat (especially around the midsection)

·       Increased lean muscle mass 

·       Greater strength, endurance, energy and stamina 

·       Faster recovery after exercise 

·       Quicker healing from injury

·       Improvement in the look of hair and skin 

·       Neurological protection 

·       Prevention of degenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s 

·       Better memory

·       Deeper Sleep 

·       Reduced inflammation 

·       Increased bone density and prevention of osteoporosis

·       Boosting of the immune system 

·       Increased life-span 

·       Improved mood 

Peptides are amino acids that naturally occur within the body. Peptide therapy, is a safe, natural and effective way to augment these small, important proteins, to significantly improve the bodily processes that diminish with age. 

Peptides are usually administered at home via a very small, relatively painless, subcutaneous injection. Talk with us about which peptides will help you to achieve your optimal health, vitality and strength, at any age.  

Low Dose Immunotherapy and Low Dose Allergy Therapy for Chronic Conditions

By Rebecca Steiner, Naturopathic Medical Assistant and Health Coach

Low dose immunotherapy (LDI) and low dose allergy (LDA) therapy is done through a small injection given just under the skin. The treatment is effective for many immune-related conditions, such as food, environmental and chemical allergies and sensitivities; autoimmune diseases; and chronic infections such as Lyme disease, viruses and other tick-borne illnesses. 

In many persistent conditions, unpleasant symptoms are the result of chronic inflammation triggered by an overactive immune system. Basically, the immune system is constantly launching an attack on what it sees as a foreign threat within the body. Certain foods, bacteria, even our own cells can trigger an overreactive or inappropriate immune response of this kind. LDI and LDA therapy work by modulating the immune system, teaching it to respond appropriately. Very low and safe doses of the problematic antigen are introduced into the body, thereby “retraining” the immune system response. Over time, the immune system becomes “desensitized,” and immunological balance and harmony is restored.

LDI and LDA are safe, easy and fairly inexpensive treatment options. For most patients LDI and LDA will initially need to be administered every seven weeks. Over time, as symptoms resolve, the intervals between injections will get longer.  Eventually injections may no longer be needed, or only needed once or twice a year. 

LDI and LDA are very effective in many people for the following conditions:

·      Food allergies

·      Seasonal allergies

·      Chemical sensitivities

·      Viruses (HHV-6, EBV, Chlamydia pneumonia, Mycoplasma, Herpes and Shingles)

·      Herpes outbreak

·      Lyme disease, bartonella, babesia and other associated tick-borne co-infections

·      PANS/PANDAS

·      Autoimmune diseases

·      Arthritis

·      Eczema

·      Alopecia

·      Chronic fatigue

·      Fibromyalgia
