Join human Naturopath Fiona Chin as she discusses the potential of peptide therapeutics in veterinary medicine. Fiona has a massive passion for biohacking and longevity in people and will share insights from her advanced training in peptides in people plus the current research on animals.
This webinar focuses on three promising compounds that may enhance treatment outcomes for common conditions in cats and dogs. Beginning with a fundamental overview of peptides, their biological functions, and their mechanisms of action in veterinary applications. The discussion will examine BPC-157, a pentadecapeptide showing promising results in accelerating healing of connective tissues, such as the Anterior Cruciate Ligament. Next, we will explore SS-31, a mitochondria-targeted peptide demonstrating potential in managing chronic kidney disease. Finally, we will discuss Thymosin Alpha-1 (TA-1), a peptide that may offer new approaches to supporting immune function in aging pets and those facing oncological challenges.
This presentation aims to provide practitioners with a comprehensive understanding of these peptide therapeutics and their potential integration into current veterinary protocols, while addressing both the opportunities and limitations of these emerging treatment options.
