Joint and Bone Health
Parathyroid Hormone (PTH 1-34)
Parathyroid Hormone (PTH 1-34), also known as Teriparatide, is a synthetic form of the active region of human parathyroid hormone. It is primarily used for improving bone density and strength by stimulating bone formation.
Key Features
Bone Regeneration: Promotes osteoblast activity for new bone growth.
Clinically Approved: Widely studied and used for treating osteoporosis.
Benefits
Increased Bone Density: Reduces the risk of fractures in individuals with osteoporosis.
Joint Support: Strengthens the bone structure supporting joints.
Faster Healing: Speeds recovery from bone injuries or fractures.
Usage
Dosage: Typically 20 mcg per day.
Administration: Subcutaneous injection.
Duration: Limited to 2 years of continuous use due to potential side effects.
Osteogenic Growth Peptide (OGP)
Osteogenic Growth Peptide is a naturally occurring peptide involved in the regulation of bone formation and remodeling. It enhances the healing process of fractures and supports overall bone health.
Key Features
Bone Healing: Accelerates recovery from fractures.
Collagen Stimulation: Enhances the production of collagen for better joint and bone support.
Benefits
Faster Fracture Recovery: Reduces healing time for broken bones.
Joint Support: Promotes healthier joints by improving bone-cartilage interaction.
Bone Strength: Increases bone density and resistance to injury.
Usage
Dosage: Experimental ranges from 10-50 mcg per injection.
Administration: Subcutaneous or intramuscular injection.
Note: Often studied in combination with other growth factors.
