The medication assisted weight loss program at Rixa Health has been extremely effective for me. I used Semaglutide and then switched to Tirzepatide without any delivery issues, both delivered to my home with supplies. I love the convenience of telemedicine and I get personalized care when I need it through their text or call-in line. They checked my blood work, spent a lot of time talking about my diet and even how to grocery shop better. I did not realize how important exercise was in this journey and Dr. Scott explained the importance of preserving muscle while losing fat. If you are on the fence, take the leap!

I’m over 50 and this is my first experience with telemedicine. I was a little nervous about this but It has been much easier than I imagined and my visits have been easy to log into and the video quality has been very good. Dr. Scott has thoroughly explained my weight loss program and I am happy with the results so far.

​Is Peptide Therapy Right for You?

​While peptide therapy holds promise in various areas of health and wellness, it’s essential to understand that individual responses can vary. At Rixa Health, our dedicated team will guide you, assessing your specific needs, and determining if peptide therapy aligns with your wellness goals.

Benefits of Peptide Therapy

For those seeking a nuanced approach to health and wellness, peptide therapy offers a range of potential benefits:

Cellular Regeneration and Repair

Peptides can aid in promoting cellular growth and repair, aiding in faster recovery and rejuvenation.

Hormonal Balance

Certain peptides can stimulate or regulate hormone production, ensuring optimal hormonal balance.

Enhanced Immunity

Some peptides bolster the immune system, enhancing the body’s natural defenses against illnesses.

Weight Management

Peptide therapy can aid in fat burning and muscle building, complementing weight loss and fitness regimens.

Anti-aging Properties

Several peptides have properties that promote skin elasticity, hydration, and overall rejuvenation, offering anti-aging benefits.

Improved Cognitive Functions

Certain peptides may enhance brain functions, promoting better memory, focus, and cognitive agility.

Helping Your Body Perform Better

Peptide therapy is a growing branch of medicine centered around helping your own body perform functions and tasks better and more efficiently. As we age, cellular processes become less efficient, certain hormones get produced less or not at all, and organ function changes. We see and feel these effects in various ways; wrinkles in our skin, more fat, less muscle, higher cholesterol, higher blood sugars, less energy, and poor sleep to name a few. This is aging.

Amino acids are the building blocks of life in the body. When you connect a few, sort of like stacking legos, you get a peptide. Peptides can then bind with receptors anywhere in the body, they can turn genes on or off, they can signal hormone production – they are involved in communication pathways within the body essential to all functions of life. Your appetite, building muscle, gaining or losing weight, inflammation, skin health and appearance, organ function, your digestive system, your reproductive system; you name it and there are peptides involved. By administering these peptides, whether it be via an injection, a capsule, a cream or even inhaled through the nose, we can target certain organs, processes or entire systems within the body and help them perform better and more efficiently.

Sermorelin

  • After the age of 30, many patients begin to experience the downsides of the aging process. Most adults exhibit common age-related symptoms such as reduced energy, muscle loss, weaker bone density, and rapid weight gain. Research shows that after the age of 30 the body’s growth hormone level drops quickly (approximately 15% every 10 years). Human growth hormone (HGH) is essential for regulating various tissues and systems in the body like breakdown of body fats, the production of lean muscle mass, bone growth and maintaining bone density to name a few.
    • Sermorelin is a peptide that helps stimulate the release of HGH from the pituitary gland.  The effects are regulated by the body’s own control system or feedback loop making Sermorelin much safer than HGH injections which bypass that feedback loop.  This means that you can very safely and legally stimulate your body’s own HGH production through the growth hormone neuroendocrine axis, which is the first to fail during aging, without the risk of many of the side effects associated with HGH injections.
    • Sermorelin is available only through prescription and we can help create a custom dosing plan to meet your goals, whether it be burn fat, build muscle, improve sleep, increase vitality or just combat aging.

NAD+

  • Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide is a coenzyme present in every cell of the body and essential for the optimal function of numerous metabolic processes.  As we age, NAD+ levels decline leading to inefficiency in these processes seen and felt as the effects of aging. On the cellular level, metabolic dysfunction and DNA damage can lead to lower energy, increased susceptibility to illness, chronic disease and age related diseases.  Poor sleep, chronic fatigue and low energy levels, digestive problems, skin aging, poor vision and so much more are all the physical manifestation of our decreased cellular efficiency and function.  We know that NAD+ reduces with age and that most, if not all people, become deficient. By increasing NAD+ levels we can enhance and restore these cellular functions and processes to a more youthful state and slow aging, reverse damage and improve chronic or age related disease states.
    • We offer oral and intranasal NAD+ therapy and it can be combined with other peptides to help achieve short and long term health and aging related goals.

5 amino 1 MQ

  • A peptide that blocks nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT).  Studies in both animals and humans have shown that NNMT expression/activity was increased in obesity and certain chronic metabolic conditions (type 2 diabetes, for example). As fat cells enlarge they produce an excess of NNMT making it harder to burn fat and making it easier for the body to form new fat. Decrease of NNMT is reported to reduce weight gain, reduce fat mass and increase energy expenditure.
    • 5 Amino 1 MQ also plays a direct role in mitochondrial health and stimulated NAD+ production.  Because of this, and the fact that the mitochondria play such an important role in aging and health, 5 Amino 1 MQ has also been shown to reduce other effects of aging such as cognitive decline and other neuronal pathways
    • We offer 5 Amino 1 MQ in capsule form and it can be combined with other peptides to help achieve short and long term weight loss, health and other aging related goals.

Other common peptides

Some other common peptides requested or prescribed include:​

  • nuButyrate
  • Leu-NMN-Apigenin
  • Oxytocin
  • Performance Collagen 
  • GHK-Cu Topical

* We offer many other peptides here at Rixa Health, too many to list.
​* Please contact us if you have questions about a peptide listed or one that you are interested in and we will provide all the information we can and/or help you set up a consultation.

Results Of Therapy

The results of this therapy can be both seen and felt, but they can also be silent. You may look or feel younger with more energy, better sleep, more muscle and less fat. However, you also may be lowering your cholesterol, reducing your blood sugars, improving cell metabolism, increasing heart/kidney/liver function, supporting your digestive system, restoring sexual function or balancing hormones. Peptides can also help treat chronic diseases and improve the inflammatory load of your body. We offer many peptides at Rixa Health and if you have any interest in learning more please reach out or schedule a consultation.
