What exactly are peptides?
You’ve probably seen the word “peptides” everywhere lately—but what are they?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that can act as signalling molecules in the body. Different peptides have different functions, and researchers continue to study their potential roles in areas such as metabolism, recovery and tissue repair.
It’s important to remember that not all peptides are the same, and not every peptide has strong evidence for every claimed benefit.
