Nutrient-Stimulated Peptide Hormones That Promote Weight Loss.
GLP-1,short for glucagon-like petide-1,is a naturally occurring hormone that is just 30-31 amino acids in length. GLP-1 peptides work by mimicking the function of the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1 in the body. GLP-1 is produced in multiple parts of the body, including the intestines, pancreas, and brain, in response to food intake. It helps regulate glucose metabolism by increasing insulin secretion. Additionally, GLP-1 slows down the emptying of the stomach, making people feel fuller for longer periods of time. By doing so, it helps regulate appetite, reduce food intake, and increase feelings of fullness. GLP-1 peptides have also been shown to have other beneficial effects, such as improving insulin sensitivity and increasing the body’s metabolic rate.
What types of nutrient-stimulated peptides are classified as GLP-1 agonist for weight loss?
Liraglutide
Single GLP-1 agonist, approved for weight loss since 2014, once daily subcutaneous injection.
Semaglutide
Single GLP-1 agonist, approved for weight loss since 2021, once weekly subcutaneous injection.
Tirzepatide
Dual GLP-1 agonist, approved for weight loss since 2023, once weekly subcutaneous injection.
Retatrutide
Triple GLP-1 agonist, ( phase 3 clinical trials as of 2025), once weekly subcutaneous injection.
Survodutide
Dual GLP-1 agonist, ( phase 3 clinical trials as of 2025), once weekly subcutaneous injection.
Mazdutide
Dual GLP-1 agonist, ( phase 3 clinical trials as of 2025), once weekly subcutaneous injection.
What are the other benefits of GLP-1 treatment?
- Improved emotional wellbeing
- Improved mental clarity and mood
- Better self-esteem
- Improved mobility and reduced joint pain
- Lower blood pressure
- Lower triglycerides
- Lower risk of heart disease
- Improved insulin resistance

Peptides / Supplements
Powerful Amino-Acid Structures that Enhance Your Body’s Normal Biological Function.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that perform many important functions in the body. Unlike synthetic drugs, peptides work by mimicking the body’s biological processes, making them both highly effective and well-tolerated. Peptides are designed to address specific issues like building muscle, burning body fat, skin rejuvenation, sexual enhancement, stress reduction, immunity boosting, inflammation reduction, and increased healing and recovery from injuries.
Sermorelin (Lean Muscle Mass, Fat Loss, Improved Metabolic Profile):
Sermorelin is a growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) naturally produced by the brain. Its function is to encourage the pituitary gland to produce and secrete human growth hormone (HGH). Sermorelin is not a growth hormone by itself, but instead a growth hormone secretagogue, a separate hormone that stimulates the production of human growth hormone (HGH). By promoting HGH production this helps regulate body composition and facilitates muscle and bone growth and is required to maintain healthy brain and organ tissue.
More About Sermorelin
How do Sermorelin levels relate to age?
The human body produces the highest amounts of Sermorelin during puberty, leveling off in their twenties, thirties and forties. Older men tend to be more likely to suffer from low levels of Sermorelin as the aging process slows down the body’s production of the hormone.
What happens when Sermorelin levels are low?
As men age, they will begin the experience adult-onset growth hormone deficiency, a phenomenon characterized by relative increase in fat mass and a commensurate decrease in muscle mass. They can also suffer from low energy levels, anxiety, and depression. Also, they may have maladjusted lipid levels, raising levels of LDL cholesterol and triglycerides. Many metabolic changes begin to occur which can lead to greater risk of heart disease, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome.
What are the effects of Sermorelin therapy?
Increased energy, improved mood, memory and cognition levels. It also helps lean muscle mass and fat loss helping improve body composition. Its broader health benefits include lower blood pressure and lower cholesterol facilitating overall better health.
Human Growth Hormone (HGH) also known as Somatotropin, is a peptide hormone secreted by the pituitary gland. It plays a crucial role in growth, cell regeneration, and tissue repair. Growth hormone is primarily produced in the growth stage of life, peaking at puberty, and then slowly declining as we age.
More About HGH
What are the signs you might be experiencing growth hormone deficiency?
More body fat, particularly around the waist, reduced bone mass, struggling to build muscle mass, feeling anxious or depressed, exhaustion or fatigue, and sensitivity to temperatures.
What are some of the benefits of HGH treatment?
Some of the benefits include increased muscle mass, improved mood and mental health, increased energy levels, better quality sleep, increased libido, lower cholesterol and body fat, better immune system function, and faster recovery from injuries and wounds.
(HCG) Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (Fertility, balancing hormones, preventing testicular atrophy):
HCG is a peptide hormone, specifically a glycoprotein, produced primarily by the placenta during pregnancy. It consists of two polypeptides subunits ( alpha and beta) linked together, with sugar molecules attached, making it a glycoprotein. HCG play a role in early pregnancy by signaling the corpus luteum in the ovary to continue producing progesterone to support fetal development also stimulates Testosterone production in the fetal testes and is used to trigger ovulation in certain hormonal conditions.
More About (HCG) Human Chorionic Gonadotropin
What role does HCG play in fertility?
Beyond pregnancy, HCG is used in fertility treatments to induce ovulation in women and help increase sperm production in men with hormonal deficiencies.
What happens to normal testosterone production when men use TRT?
Exogenous testosterone supplementation can suppress the body’s natural production of testosterone by inhibiting the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. This happens because the hypothalamus reduces the release of (GnRH) gonadotropin-releasing hormone which in turn decreases the release of (LH) luteinizing hormone and (FSH) follicle stimulating hormone because the external testosterone signals to the hypothalamus to reduce the release of these hormones. When these hormones are suppressed, testicular function declines, leading to testicular atrophy ( shrinkage) and reduced fertility.
How can HCG help men while using TRT?
HCG is structurally similar to the hormone LH and mimics it’s action by binding to the same receptors on the Leydig cells. When administered stimulates the testes to continue producing endogenous testosterone and helps maintain testicular size and function, even in the presence of exogenous testosterone’s helps maintain the body’s normal testosterones production and helps prevent testicular shrinkage and improves testicular function while using TRT.
PT-141 (Sexual Enhancement):
Also known as bremelanotide, PT-141 works by stimulating the melanocortin receptors in the brain, which are involved in sexual arousal, increased sexual desire, and physical response without affecting the cardiovascular system
More About PT-141
What is PT-141 used for?
PT-141 is approved to treat hypoactive sexual desire disorder in premenopausal women. It can be used for off-label use for men for libido and enhanced erections.
What are some of the other effects of PT-141?
Some of the other effects include increased physical arousal and genital circulation, improved sexual performance, elevated mood, enhanced metabolism, and improved lean muscle mass.
What are the common side effects of PT-141?
Some of the common side effects include flushing, headaches, nausea, irritation, reddening at the injection site.
Glutathione (Detoxification, Immune Support, Skin Support, Anti-Aging)
More About Glutathione (Detoxification, Immune Support, Skin Support, Anti-Aging)
What happens to the body’s Glutathione levels as we age?
As we age our glutathione levels begin to decline. Glutathione levels in the body many be reduced for a number of reasons, including poor nutrition,enviromental toxins,and oxidative stress.
What are the uses of Glutathione?
Glutathione is often referred to as the master antioxidant and supports detoxification, immune system support, nuerological support,and serves as key co-factor in important energy production cycles within the body. Other uses include cosmetic uses for skin lightening,anti-aging,and improved skin elacticity.
What are the benefits of Glutathione?
Glutathione helps reduce oxidative stress that can lead to chronic disease. This typically occurs when there is an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the body’s ability to fight them off.Levels of oxidative stress that are too high may be a precursor to multiple diseases such as diabetes,cancer,and rheumatoid arthritis.
How is Glutathione adminsitered?
Glutathione can be administered orally, subcutaneously,intramuscularly, or via I.V. administration depending on the treatment regimen and goals the patient wants to achieve.
NAD+ is not a traditional peptide but rather a coenzyme derived from vitamin B3(niacin). It’s a small molecule composed of two nucleotides linked by their phosphate groups, not a chain of amino acids like peptides. However, it’s often discussed in the context of cellular health alongside peptides. NAD+ plays a critical role in energy metabolism and cellular function by acting as an electron carrier in redox reactions.
More About (NAD+) Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide
What happens to NAD+ levels as we age?
NAD+ levels naturally decline with age due to reduced synthesis and increased consumption by enzymes ( PARP’s and CD38). This drop in NAD+ levels is linked to metabolic slowdown, reduced DNA repair, and increased age-related conditions.
Is NAD+ only important for energy production?
NAD+ has broader roles besides energy metabolism, it’s vital for DNA repair, gene expression, and cellular signaling by activating enzymes called Sirtuins and PAPRs. By using NAD+ or it’s precursors (NMN) nicotinamide mononucleotide or ( NR) nicotinamide riboside, these can help boost NAD+ levels aiming to combat aging, improve metabolic health, and enhance cellular resilience.
How often do I need to supplement NAD+ to notice a difference?
Most studies and supplement protocols recommend daily intake of NAD+ precursors because NAD+ has a relatively short half-life in the body (hours to a day), and consistent supplementation helps maintain elevated levels. Using a protocol with intravenous or injectables along with oral supplementation will raise levels on a more consistent basis.

Sample Comprehensive Blood Biomarker Report
Comprehensive Bloodwork
“Normal” doesn’t mean the body is in its optimal state Elevate Medical Group’s comprehensive bloodwork measures more than the standard panels most people are used to. Our comprehensive bloodwork analyzes 98+ biomarkers to get a true understanding of your baseline health, enabling early detection of disease, and allowing patients to be proactive about their health. What may be considered “normal” is not necessarily a picture of “optimal” health, we use lab ranges that are based on optimal physiology and not the “normal” population. By using tighter functional ranges, we can detect areas of physiological function that are trending away from optimal function and see where the individual is moving towards dysfunction. Using specialized software that uses detailed algorithms to analyze patterns in biomarkers we can create a health improvement plan customized to the individual health needs of the patient.

Solid Tumor Cancer Screening Test (Cancer Checklabs)
- Cancer check works because it captures whole atypical cells that a pathologist evaluates if any of them are circulating tumor cells (CTCs), tumors begin shedding tumor cells that circulate in the bloodstream, potentially as early as they are born, well before the tumor has grown enough to be visible in imaging.
- Finding CTCs indicates a problem, cancer tumor cells (CTC’s) begin shedding from a tumor into your bloodstream as the tumor attempts to spread throughout your body, the earlier you can detect the CTC’s, the earlier you can try to stop the cancer.
- Cancer check uses a specialized filtration process that can extract atypical, potentially malignant tumor cells, from the blood as unprecedented scale.
- Early detection is key, rather than waiting for the tumor to grow and continue spreading until it is finally large enough to be visible on imaging or felt as a lump.
- Cancer check labs can screen for over 200 types of solid-state tumors, currently most screenings only screen for 5 types of solid-state tumors.
How Cancer Check Works
Blood Sample Collection
After you receive your test kit, a professional phlebotomist will draw 40 ml of blood (about 5 vials) for your sample.
Our Lab Filters Your Blood
Your blood sample is sent in to our laboratory and is filtered using leading technologies that can isolate tumor cells with our proprietary workflow. Slides are prepared for our pathologists to review.
Reviewing the Results
A pathologist reviews the sample and data to determine whether or not tumor cells were detected. Every customer receives a board-certified pathology report for their screening. Results are ready in about 10-14 days.
Why Cancer Check Works
Cancer Check works because we capture whole atypical cells and a pathologist evaluates if any of them are circulating tumor cells (CTCs).
These CTCs are known to provide cancer insights as you will see referenced below.
Tumors Shed Cells
Tumors begin shedding tumor cells that circulate in your bloodstream, known as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), potentially as early as they are born, well before the tumor has grown enough to be visible in imaging.
Finding CTCs Indicates a Problem
CTCs begin shedding from a tumor into your bloodstream as the tumor attempts to spread throughout your body. Hence, the earlier we can detect the CTCs, the earlier we can try to stop the cancer in its tracks.
Broad Spectrum Screening
Cancer Check uses specialized filtration processes that can extract atypical, potentially malignant tumor cells, from the blood at unprecedented scale. Because we filter the cells based on their physical and mechanical properties, we can capture tumor cells from any type or subtype of solid tumor as they all share similar physical and mechanical properties.
Cutting Edge Processing & Analysis
The processing includes staining the atypical cells we isolate and identifying the cell’s markers using established methods to create highly interpretable slides. Pathologists, who are trained to specifically analyze tissue, blood, and cells, analyze those slides and cell markers to identify whether or not the atypical cells are tumor cells. The pathologist issues a board-certified pathology report for every viable sample.
Finding CTCs for Quick Intervention
Fundamentally, CTCs must be shed from an underlying primary tumor (they need an origin, a source). Thereby, the presence of CTCs in the bloodstream is indicative of cancer and should warrant further investigation.
Early Detection
Rather than waiting for the tumor to grow and to continue spreading until it is finally large enough to be visible on imaging or felt as a lump, Cancer Check seeks to identify CTCs as early as possible. For example, one gram of tumor mass is rarely palpable (you cannot feel it) and it is hard to image (tough to see). However, that single gram of tumor mass sheds and emits up to an estimated 3.2 million CTCs per day into your bloodstream. With our proprietary process to analyze blood at scale, we can process sufficiently large enough samples to detect CTCs at the earliest of stages.
Cancer Types
Cancer Check works because we can capture whole atypical circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from your blood draw.
Below are some examples of the 200+ solid tumor types and subtypes that could be detected.
We Can Also Detect These and More:

I.V. Drip Therapy
Come Feel the Difference with I.V. Drip Therapy and Get Your Edge Back.
IV Drip Therapy is a low-risk, minimally invasive procedure administered by licensed medical staff in a relaxing environment. It delivers fluids mixed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. This allows the body to absorb almost 100% of the nutrients needed to live better, feel better, and perform better. Orally, the gastrointestinal tract only digests up to 20% of a vitamin’s potency. In short, IV Drip Therapy can be the quickest, most effective way to deliver critical fluids and nutrients throughout your body.
What are some of the benefits of getting I.V. Drip Therapy on a regular basis?
Getting a I.V. Drip treatment on a regular basis can help detoxify the body, help regulate your mood and sleep better, aid in jet lag recovery (frequent trips/work travel), fight exhaustion/fatigue, lessen the duration of the cold/flu, ease symptoms of dehydration, soothes muscles aches/pains, reduce stress, and reduce visual signs of aging.
Is getting I.V. Drip Therapy better than just taking my oral vitamins and supplements?
What are some of the vitamins and nutrients that are available for I.V. Drip Therapy?
- B-Complex (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6)
- Vitamin B12 (Hydroxocobalamin)
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid)
- Calcium
- Magnesium
- Folic acid
- Zinc
- Biotin
- Alpha Lipoic Acid
- Trace minerals (Selenium, Copper, Manganese)
Are there other non-vitamins that can be administered through I.V. Drip Therapy?
- Toradol (pain/migraines/cramps)
- Zofran(nausea/vomiting)
- Glutathione (antioxidant, immune support, anti-aging)
- NAD+ (cell support, energy boost, anti-aging)
- Taurine (energy metabolism, combat fatigue, enhance muscle function, reduce muscle damage during workouts)
- BCAA (promotes muscle synthesis, reduces muscle breakdown, supports liver function)
- Lipo-C (fat burner, increase metabolism and weight loss)
- Chelation ( helps remove heavy metals ( lead,mercury,arsenic,or iron) preventing toxic build up in the body.
How long does it usually take to finish an I.V. Drip Treatment?
Normally, most I.V. Drip Therapy treatments will take about 45-60 minutes and be in the comfort of our I.V. room in a comfortable recliner where you can relax while getting your I.V. treatment.
NAD+ I.V. Therapy
Discover the Anti-Aging Benefits and Unlock Your Body’s Potential with NAD+ Therapy.
What happens to our body’s cells during the aging process?
During the body’s aging process, normal human cells have a limited capacity to divide before they stop and enter a state of senescence. This limit is determined by the length of telomeres, which are protective caps at the ends of chromosomes that shorten with each cell division. When telomeres become too short, the cell can no longer replicate and may die or become dysfunctional.
What is NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)?
What are some of the potential benefits of receiving NAD+ I.V. treatments?
NAD+ is a key player in cellular respiration, the process that converts nutrients into energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). By increasing NAD+ levels, cells may produce more ATP, leading to enhanced energy levels and improved cellular function.
DNA Repair and Protection
NAD+ is essential for DNA repair mechanisms, and higher NAD+ levels may promote more efficient repair of damaged DNA. This could potentially help reduce the risk of mutations and age-related cellular damage.
Anti-Aging Effects
Declining NAD+ levels have been associated with aging, and NAD+ therapy is being explored for its potential anti-aging effects. By supporting cellular health and function, NAD+ therapy may help slow down the aging process and improve overall well-being.
Neuroprotection
NAD+ plays a critical role in maintaining the health of neurons and supporting their function. Increasing NAD+ levels may help protect against neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive decline.
Mitochondrial Support
NAD+ is involved in maintaining healthy mitochondria, which are the powerhouses of the cells. Healthy mitochondria are crucial for overall cellular health and longevity.
Metabolic Support
NAD+ is involved in various metabolic pathways, including those related to glucose and lipid metabolism. NAD+ therapy may help regulate metabolic processes and potentially benefit individuals with metabolic disorders.
Cardiovascular Health
NAD+ therapy may positively impact cardiovascular health by promoting better blood vessel function and reducing oxidative stress.
What is the recommended number of NAD+ I.V. sessions?
The current understanding is that consistent replenishment over time could be necessary to maintain elevated NAD+ levels, given its rapid turnover rate in the body. The concept of “loading” and “maintenance” doses is prevalent in the NAD+ therapy literature. A study on NAD+ metabolism in humans indicated that NAD+ levels post-infusion return to baseline within days, suggesting the need for repeated dosing to achieve sustained benefits. This leads to the rationale that a 3-month period could be ideal for observing both immediate and more sustained effects of NAD+ therapy.
The Rationale Includes:
- Efficacy
A 3-month duration allows for sufficient time to observe meaningful improvements in cellular function, energy levels, and overall health outcomes. - Adaptation
The body needs time to adapt to and fully benefit from increased NAD+ levels. This period ensures optimal absorption and utilization at the cellular level. - Consistency
Regular treatments over a 3-month period help maintain steady NAD+ levels, promoting sustained health benefits and preventing relapses. - Comprehensive Care
This duration aligns with clinical guidelines for treating chronic conditions, providing a thorough and holistic approach to health improvement.

What NAD+ I.V. options are available and how long does 1 session take?
Elevate Medical Group offers 2 options for NAD+ I.V. therapy, both are effective in their end goal of raising NAD+ levels but have different time requirements.
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)
A larger molecule that requires being broken down into smaller precursor molecules before it can pass through cell membranes and has a relatively short half-life in the body making it rapidly metabolized. For these reasons a slower infusion of time helps facilitate slower cellular uptake and improve the therapeutic effect. Additionally, high concentrations of large molecules like NAD+ can cause osmotic balance shifts and disrupt osmotic balance in blood vessels if administered too quickly causing infusion discomfort. Depending on NAD+ dosage infusion time can run 2-5 hours.
Niagen (Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride)
A pre-cursor molecule that is converted to active NAD+ and is a smaller molecule that can pass through cell membranes directly, requiring fewer steps to be converted to NAD+ and has significantly reduced infusion time. Depending on dosage NRC can be infusion time can run 30-60 minutes.
