“The state of being strong and active”
We’re thrilled to announce two special promotions available exclusively this month!
GHK-Cu is a natural copper complex first found in human blood but also found in saliva and urine. It has many important functions in the body, such as helping wounds heal, attracting immune cells, reducing inflammation, and promoting collagen production and blood vessel growth in the skin.
Research shows that GHK-Cu acts as a signal after tissue injury, protecting tissue and reducing inflammation and oxidative damage. It also helps with tissue remodeling, removing damaged tissue, and promoting the growth of new, healthy tissue. Unfortunately, as we age, the levels of GHK-Cu in our body decrease, leading to a decline in these positive effects.
GHK-Cu is an important molecule in skin health, commonly used in cosmetics for its reparative and anti-aging benefits. It helps the skin by boosting the production and breakdown of collagen and glycosaminoglycans that keep skin firm and elastic. GHK-Cu also attracts immune and healing cells to injury sites, speeding up the healing process for skin, hair follicles, and even bones. In cosmetics, it’s known to tighten loose skin, improve elasticity and firmness, reduce wrinkles and sun damage, and increase skin cell growth.
GHK-Cu Research Studies
Copper peptide GHK-Cu has been proven effective in several facial studies. In one study by Abdulghani et al., a facial cream with GHK-Cu increased collagen in the skin of 20 women with sun-damaged skin, outperforming both vitamin C and retinoic acid. Another study by Leyden et al. over 12 weeks showed that GHK-Cu face and eye creams significantly improved skin firmness, clarity, and appearance while reducing fine lines and wrinkles. It also increased skin density and thickness, with the eye cream performing better than a vitamin K cream. Finkley et al. conducted a similar 12-week study on 67 women, finding that GHK-Cu cream improved the appearance and thickness of aging skin, reduced wrinkles, and stimulated skin cell growth without causing any toxicity or irritation.
We’re excited to offer GHK-Cu beauty peptide in both creams and injections! Want healthier skin? Click the image to get started today!
Delaying Menopause and Longevity:
The Ovary’s Impact on Aging
In March, First Lady Jill Biden announced a new White House women’s health initiative, raising an intriguing research question: What if we could delay menopause and its associated health risks?
This question comes from emerging research in longevity and women’s health. Scientists have discovered that the female reproductive system, particularly the ovaries, is crucial to a woman’s overall health. Ovaries are linked to nearly every aspect of a woman’s health, but they cease their primary function in midlife, leading to menopause. This transition accelerates aging and the decline of other organ systems, like the heart and brain. While women generally live longer than men, they often spend more time with diseases or disabilities.
