Peptide based therapies
Certain peptide based therapies may be considered when they are clinically appropriate and in line with current regulations. Eligibility and availability depend on the therapy and on your medical evaluation.
Peptide & NAD+ Therapy
Peptide and NAD+ therapy, with medical oversight
Treatment decisions are made by your licensed APL provider after an individual evaluation.
If a therapy is considered, it is because your provider has looked at whether it has a real place in your wider medical plan, based on your history, your goals and current regulatory guidance.

Therapies
Two therapies we may consider
Neither is a quick fix. Both are prescribed only after an evaluation, and only when they fit the plan you have built with your provider.
NAD+ therapy
NAD+ may be one part of a performance or wellness plan. Your provider looks at your overall health before deciding whether it is right for you, and sets the dose, delivery method, frequency and monitoring.
Before you start
An honest conversation first
Your provider will explain the possible benefits, limits, risks, alternatives and costs before any treatment begins. These therapies aren't right for everyone, and results vary from person to person.

Peptides and NAD+, explained simply
What are peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. Your body makes many of them naturally, and they act as signals that help regulate things like healing, appetite and hormone release. Some peptide based medicines are well established, and others are newer and still being studied.
Because rules around peptides change and not every product is legitimate, it matters where they come from and who prescribes them. At APL, any peptide therapy is prescribed by a licensed provider and sourced through properly licensed U.S. pharmacies.
What is NAD+?
NAD+ is a molecule found in every cell. It plays a role in turning food into energy and in cell repair, and levels tend to fall with age. NAD+ therapy aims to support those processes. Research is ongoing, so we treat it as one possible part of a wider plan rather than a fix on its own.
Why a medical evaluation comes first
These therapies can interact with other medications and health conditions. APL’s licensed providers evaluate whether a treatment has an appropriate role in your care, considering your health history, goals, available evidence, and current requirements.

Not necessarily. It is only considered after a medical evaluation of your history, labs and individual health.
Do I need labs first?
In most cases, yes. Your provider will want to understand your current health before deciding whether a therapy is right for you.
Can I start a therapy without a care program?
Therapies are considered as part of your wider medical plan, so they start with an evaluation by your APL provider.
