Peptides in Medicine: Immune Support, Tissue Repair, Hormone Health, and Cognitive Function

In this episode, Dr. Stewart breaks down what peptides are, how they work in the body, and why they have become such a growing topic in medicine beyond GLP-1s and weight loss. He explains the role peptides can play in:

• Immune support and inflammation control
• Tissue repair and recovery
• Brain and nervous system health
• Hormone balance and fertility
• Sleep-related recovery and energy production

Dr. Stewart also walks through several specific peptides, including thymosin alpha-1, thymosin beta-4, BPC-157, Dihexa, gonadorelin, oxytocin, and growth hormone-releasing peptides. He shares how these are used to support concerns such as:

• Chronic inflammation and autoimmune conditions
• Brain fog, fatigue, and neurologic dysfunction
• Tissue healing and injury recovery
• Low testosterone and fertility challenges
• Anxiety and mood regulation

This episode is for patients, caregivers, and anyone interested in peptide therapy, functional medicine, immune health, brain health, hormone support, and personalized approaches to recovery and wellness.
