Peptides: Keys to Health from a Future Perspective

Last Update: 2 August, 2026 | 20:51

Peptide science has moved from basic biomolecular research to the front line of regenerative medicine, metabolic therapy, and healthy ageing. Volume 56 of the Secrets of a Healthy Society series gives a clear, scientific overview of the peptides now in widest use.

Secrets of a Healthy Society — Volume 56

Once a footnote in biomolecular research, peptides now sit at the front of regenerative medicine, metabolic therapy, healthy ageing, and immune regulation. Prof. Seyed-Moayed Alavian gives a clear and scientific account of the peptides in widest use — and of the responsible, evidence-led way to approach them.

About this book

Advances in medical science over recent decades have opened new ground in understanding the body and designing treatments. Peptide science is one of those transformative fields: working with natural, body-compatible molecules, it has become significant in improving organ function, preventing disease, and supporting quality of life.

Peptides once belonged to basic biomolecular study. They now appear across regenerative medicine, healthy ageing, metabolic therapy, brain performance, weight management, and immune regulation. In societies facing population ageing, chronic disease, sedentary living, and persistent stress, the appeal of targeted approaches with relatively favourable safety profiles is easy to understand.

This volume presents a clear and accessible overview of important and widely used peptides — from immune-regulating molecules to those acting on metabolism, brain function, tissue regeneration, and modern hormone therapies. It also discusses recent clinical experience with the peptide Deglusterol in metabolism and inflammation control, and what such experience shows about the need for scientific evaluation, practical protocols, and responsible use.

What the book covers

Peptide fundamentals

What peptides are, why body-compatible molecules behave differently, and how they act on targets.

Metabolic peptides

Applications in metabolic therapy and weight management, and the evidence behind them.

Immune regulation

Immune-regulating peptides and their place in managing inflammation.

Regeneration and ageing

Tissue repair, rejuvenation, and the role peptides play in healthy-ageing research.

Clinical experience

Observations from the use of Deglusterol, and what they suggest for protocol development.

Responsible use

Why scientific evaluation and clear protocols must precede wider clinical adoption.

Important. Peptide therapies are an active research area, and evidence quality varies considerably between compounds; promising early findings are not the same as established clinical benefit. Many peptides are prescription-only or unapproved in a given country, and products sold direct to consumers online are frequently unregulated and of uncertain purity. Discuss any peptide treatment with a qualified clinician before use.
