Natural Peptides
Support Your Health from the Inside Out
As a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, my focus is on supporting your body’s natural ability to heal, strengthen, and thrive—using safe, evidence-based approaches rooted in both ancient wisdom and modern science.
​
One of the most exciting tools I now offer as part of a holistic health plan is natural peptides—smart, plant-based supplements that work with your body to reward your healthy habits and movement.
What Are Natural Peptides?
Peptides are tiny but powerful chains of amino acids. Think of them as messenger molecules—they help your cells communicate better, encouraging your body to:
​
-
Build lean muscle and strength
-
Improve metabolism and energy
-
Support immune health and longevity
-
Protect your heart, bones, and brain
​​
These aren’t synthetic drugs or artificial boosters. The peptides I work with are naturally extracted from Fava Beans using a patented process that preserves their full biological power.
Smart Support for Your Active Lifestyle
Whether you're already moving regularly or just getting started, these natural peptides are designed to amplify the benefits of your healthy habits.
​
Results in a recent clinical study published in the BMJ Nutrition, Prevention & Health (2025), men and women who took 2.4 g of Fava Bean peptide daily (completing only 60 minutes of resistance training a week) enjoyed significantly:
-
Increased lean muscle mass
-
Improved bone density and endurance
-
Greater secretion of health-boosting myokines (more on those below!)
​
This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with exclusion inclusion criteria—the gold standard in medical research.​
Why Myokines Matter?
Myokines are special peptides your muscles release during movement. They act as internal messengers that tell your body to increase lean muscle, increase bone density, burn deep organ and belly fat, protect the heart, support the brain, and reduce inflammation.
​
The Fava Bean peptide supplement I offer, called FIT, significantly increased production of the following health-promoting myokines:
-
Osteocrin – Supports brain health, neuroplasticity and cognitive function
-
Oncostatin – Promotes bone growth, muscle repair, tissue healing, fat, metabolism, cardiovascular health, cancer modulation
-
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) – Boosts fat metabolism, reduces visceral fat, improves insulin sensitivity, maintains muscle mass, improves immune function
-
Apelin – Slows down aging with anti-aging myokines. Protects cardiovascular health and lowers blood pressure
​​
These are natural, anti-aging, and restorative signals your body already produces with resistance training—this supplement simply helps you to produce more of them in response to movement. You enjoy more results from your efforts.
