Advanced Wellness Therapies.
Precision medicine for optimal health.
Explore our Newport Beach peptide therapy library—scientifically guided compounds designed to support weight management, recovery, cognitive performance, metabolic health, and overall wellness. Every profile is reviewed through the clinical lens of Dr. Sean Kelishadi and Sherry Kelishadi, with real discussion around safety, evidence, dosing, and outcomes.
GLP-1 receptor agonist. Beyond weight loss, emerging cardiovascular and longevity data continue to drive interest. Muscle preservation risk is addressed directly.
Dual GLP-1 and GIP agonist. Strong weight loss outcomes and growing metabolic relevance make it one of the most requested compounds in the category.
Triple agonist targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors. Often referred to as the Skinny Shot, early data suggests notable weight reduction and metabolic impact beyond current GLP-1 options.
A leading GH secretagogue stack used for recovery, body composition, and healthy aging support. Clinical context and risk discussion matter here.
A GHRH and GHRP combination favored for visceral fat reduction, body composition, and recovery support. Often selected for patients seeking targeted metabolic outcomes.
Mitochondrial-derived peptide associated with metabolic regulation, cellular energy, and exercise mimetic effects. A growing area of interest in longevity protocols.
Longevity-focused peptide known for its connection to telomere and healthy aging discussions. Interest is strong among anti-aging patients, though claims require nuance.
A widely recognized recovery peptide associated with tissue healing and GI support. One of the most searched compounds in the peptide space.
ACTH-derived nootropic peptide associated with focus, memory, and cognitive performance. A frequent entry point for patients exploring cognitive peptides.
Coenzyme central to cellular energy, DNA repair, and metabolic function. Used in cognitive, longevity, and recovery protocols where mitochondrial support is the goal.
Melanocortin receptor agonist used for sexual health and libido support in men and women. High-interest peptide with strong patient intent.
Melanocortin agonist associated with skin pigmentation effects and libido support. Used selectively with attention to safety profile and patient suitability.
Immune-modulating peptide associated with inflammatory balance, recovery support, and resilience protocols in clinical settings.
Semaglutide
GLP-1 receptor agonist. Beyond weight loss, emerging cardiovascular and longevity data continue to drive interest. Muscle preservation risk is addressed directly.
Tirzepatide
Dual GLP-1 and GIP agonist. Strong weight loss outcomes and growing metabolic relevance make it one of the most requested compounds in the category.
Retatrutide
Triple agonist targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors. Often referred to as the Skinny Shot, early data suggests notable weight reduction and metabolic impact beyond current GLP-1 options.
CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin
A leading GH secretagogue stack used for recovery, body composition, and healthy aging support. Clinical context and risk discussion matter here.
Tesamorelin / Ipamorelin
A GHRH and GHRP combination favored for visceral fat reduction, body composition, and recovery support. Often selected for patients seeking targeted metabolic outcomes.
MOTS-c
Mitochondrial-derived peptide associated with metabolic regulation, cellular energy, and exercise mimetic effects. A growing area of interest in longevity protocols.
Epithalon
Longevity-focused peptide known for its connection to telomere and healthy aging discussions. Interest is strong among anti-aging patients, though claims require nuance.
BPC-157
A widely recognized recovery peptide associated with tissue healing and GI support. One of the most searched compounds in the peptide space.
Semax
ACTH-derived nootropic peptide associated with focus, memory, and cognitive performance. A frequent entry point for patients exploring cognitive peptides.
NAD+
Coenzyme central to cellular energy, DNA repair, and metabolic function. Used in cognitive, longevity, and recovery protocols where mitochondrial support is the goal.
PT-141
Melanocortin receptor agonist used for sexual health and libido support in men and women. High-interest peptide with strong patient intent.
Melanotan II
Melanocortin agonist associated with skin pigmentation effects and libido support. Used selectively with attention to safety profile and patient suitability.

Find your starting point.
Not sure which treatment is right? Start with your concern — we'll show you the evidence-graded options across all three pillars.
Not a sales call.
A clinical conversation.
Dr. Sean Kelishadi and Sherry Kelishadi will personally review your labs, health history, medications, and goals before discussing any longevity stack.
Current medications, contraindications, prior peptide or hormone experience reviewed before the call. No protocol discussion without context.
Testosterone, thyroid, metabolic panel, CBC. All relevant. We can recommend labs if you don't have recent results.
Which compounds are appropriate, dosing considerations, and what outcomes are realistic, from a board-certified surgeon and pharmacist.
Protocol discussed, follow-up recommendations, and monitoring guidance sent after the call. Everything in writing.
What patients actually say.
"After my ACL surgery, my orthopedic surgeon was surprised by how quickly my tissue was healing. I'd been on a BPC-157 protocol overseen by Dr. Kelishadi for 8 weeks. The clinical oversight made me comfortable with a compound I'd been skeptical of."
"Sherry reviewed my medication list before I started anything. I was on three prescriptions and there were two interactions nobody else had flagged. That pharmacist oversight is exactly why I chose SSK over every other clinic."
"First provider who told me my testosterone was actually in normal range and I didn't need TRT. Most clinics would have just sold me the protocol. Dr. Kelishadi reviewed my labs and gave me a non-pharmaceutical approach first."
