What are peptides? 

Peptides are sequences of amino acids that produce a metabolic response in the body. Many peptides mimic hormone stimulation to boost natural production of certain compounds in the body, such as human growth hormone. Because peptides can have a powerful effect on full-body health, peptide therapy can be an excellent addition to an NP’s practice.  

Research suggests that peptide therapies can be a highly efficacious treatment for a number of health concerns, and can boost quality of life for patients with chronic or acute conditions. Peptides have been shown to speed up healing processes from surgeries or injuries, accelerate weight loss, and improve sleep and skin health. Peptides have also been utilized in the aesthetics field, targeted specifically toward older populations to rejuvenate complexions and eliminate signs of aging.  

Peptides and anti-aging therapies

Anti-aging therapeutics, also known as anti-aging treatments or interventions, refer to a range of medical and lifestyle approaches designed to promote healthy aging. Peptides can be used in tandem with other healthy habits to increase the number of quality years in a patient’s life. This course will cover the foundations of anti-aging science, and present evidence-based data on the efficacy of these therapies. 

Financial opportunities in the anti-aging and peptide industry 

Offering peptide therapies and anti-aging services in your NP practice can be extremely lucrative. Profit margins on these treatments are excellent, creating opportunities for substantial income of up to $10,000 per month. All practices that treat adults can benefit from anti-aging and peptide services, due to the high demand among aging populations. You can help your patients look and feel better while increasing your practice’s revenue.

Christine R: If you are considering the The Elite NP courses, do it! I completed the telemedicine and peptide courses and they are packed with useful information. Not only that, they are very responsive to your questions and you will also learn much from your colleagues as they ask questions. The Elite NP offers great information on starting your own business in a supportive and collegial environment.



Steve G: I am very impressed and very happy with my Elite NP Peptide training program. I have purchased courses from both Seeds and the International Peptide Society, and I have to say, I found the depth of content down to practical and very useful. Not overboard on the microbiology. The list of peptides reviewed was good, wish they could add more, but I was very happy they covered such a wide range. And I really appreciated the list of labs to run and the timeline for follow ups. As an added bonus, I found the affiliation network and the protocols very helpful. Here is why I would recommend the Elite Peptide course, they give you everything you need to get started providing peptide therapy to your clients at a super great price. I am going on to get my peptide certification with IPS (roughly $5K) because I want to start teaching in addition to expanding my peptide therapy offerings. But you don't need to. That is the benefit of the Elite NP course.

Allison D: The peptide course included great information. Justin was very attentive answering questions via email following completion of the course.
