LL 37 (CAP 18) 10mg
LL-37 is an antimicrobial peptide that’s generated by the epithelial cells, neutrophils and lymphocytes, which is one of the essential cogs in the antiviral, antifungal and antibacterial defense mechanism.
LL-37’s mechanism of action is not too dissimilar to that of other antimicrobial peptides, it damages/punctures harmful microorganism’s (fungal, bacterial, viral pathogen’s) cell membrane. This is how LL-37 inhibits the creation of bacterial biofilms which, in turn, reduces the incidence of chronic and recurrent microbial infections.

Retatrutide
CAD $130.00 – CAD $250.00
Retatrutide, also known as LY3437943, is a glucagon-like peptide 1 agonist; what separates this peptide from the others is it also targets gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor (GIPR) and glucagon receptors (GCGR), making it a triagonist.
In the lab settings, Retatrutide mimics the natural glucagon and glucose production within the hepatocytes, while inducing lipolysis in the adipocytes.
Tesamorelin
CAD $70.00 – CAD $125.00
Tesamorelin is a synthetic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog. It was based on the 44 amino acids sequence of GHRH and contains a trans-3 hexenoic group to protect it from enzymatic degradation. These modifications allow it to be more stable and have a longer half-life.
Just like Sermorelin, Ipamorelin or GHRP-2, Tesamorelin is considered a growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) which stimulates the secretion of GH and increases the level of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1). The importance of IGF-1 is it tends to be lower in patients with obesity, diabetes and especially in those with lipodystrophy.

Oxytocin 10mg
CAD $67.00
Oxytocin is a naturally occurring, cyclic nonapeptide which acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain. This naturally occurring peptide is vital in many functions concerning reproduction and birth, it’s the principal uterine-contracting and milk-ejecting hormone.
An interesting thing about Oxytocin is that it’s one of the few hormones that exhibit a positive feedback loop; in other words, the release of oxytocin kicks certain actions in motions, which promote even more oxytocin release.

Semaglutide
CAD $105.00 – CAD $190.00
This is a synthetic peptide modeled after the naturally occurring hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 is an incretin, a gut-derived peptide secreted in response to a meal, that regulates insulin secretion based on glucose levels in the blood. This GLP-1 agonist was developed specifically to have an extended half-life without losing potency.
Since it falls under the category of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, it acts to prompt the body to secrete more insulin and inhibit glucagon secretion. By allowing the body to secrete more insulin and inhibiting the secretion of glucagon, this joint effort brings blood glucose levels down.
AOD9604
CAD $50.00 – CAD $90.00
AOD9604 is a derivative of human growth hormone (hGH) and a modified version of the hGH fragment 176-191 peptide, incorporating a di-sulfide bridge. What’s exciting about this peptide is that it does not affect IGF-1 or insulin levels and is, therefore, not a risk in promoting glucose intolerance.
BPC 157 10mg
CAD $134.00
Body protection compound 157, or BPC-157, is an overall body protection compound fragment that’s 15 amino acids long, falling under the pentadecapeptide category. BPC-257 is derived from the gastric juice and, as such, is much more stable and, above all, resilient to the destructive enzymes commonly found in the gastric juice.
Research around BPC-157 showed its incredible cytoprotective properties, as it provides cell protection against gastric mucosal injury. Researchers believe this peptide plays an important role in the brain-gut axis and enables this communication between our central nervous and endocrine systems.

Sermorelin 10mg
CAD $120.60
Sermorelin is a 29 amino acid human growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analogue and it’s actually the shortest synthetic peptide with full GHRH biological activity. It’s considered a growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) which was initially developed only to test the secretion of GH.
What sermorelin essentially does is it mimics the hypothalamic peptide GHRH and acts directly on the pituitary gland stimulating the production of GH. It also increases the proliferation of somatotroph cells’ ability to secrete HGH.
