Peptide Academy

Visual explainers.

Infographics that summarize a mechanism or a decision at a glance. Each links to the fuller, evidence-graded discussion.

Infographics simplify. For evidence levels and FDA status, always check the peptide library. Nothing here is a treatment recommendation.

  • What are peptides?

    A visual primer on peptides as signaling molecules, with examples ranging from FDA-approved (semaglutide) to investigational (BPC-157, epitalon).

  • Peptides vs. small-molecule drugs

    How targeted signaling differs from broad pharmacology. Simplified: many conventional drugs are precise and life-saving, and peptides carry their own risks.

  • Beyond HGH: growth hormone secretagogues

    Why secretagogues work through the body’s own pulsatile release rather than replacing growth hormone directly.

  • CJC-1295 + ipamorelin

    The rationale for pairing a GHRH analog with a ghrelin-receptor agonist. Note: human evidence is limited and FDA advisers voted against adding both to the compounding list.

  • Epitalon and telomerase

    The proposed telomerase mechanism of epitalon. Most data come from a single research group and early studies; treat as hypothesis.

  • Testosterone vs. enclomiphene

    Primary vs. secondary hypogonadism and why the distinction changes treatment, especially when fertility matters.

  • The gut–inflammation connection

    Diet and daily-rhythm foundations for gut health — fiber, polyphenols, healthy fats and fermented foods.
