Dr. Pickart Answers What Peptides to Use & Which to Avoid Exclusive offers found only in this month's newsletter! Read it today: www.reverseskinaging.com/Nov2019_SkinBiologyNewsletter.html NEWS & UPDATES: Peptides are great for your skin right? Many are suprised to hear my resounding "No" when I answer that frequently asked question. Not all peptides are beneficial (or even healthy) for use on human skin. My goal this month is to educate my dear clients on what to avoid and reassure you about the safety and efficacy of the skin-healthy peptides I invented so long ago. Enter this lovely fall season with confidence in my quality peptide products proven to generate results. Let me show you which peptides to use instead, why they work, and how to incorporate them into your regimen today! ---Dr. Loren Pickart PhD BA Chemistry and Mathematics, University of Minnesota PhD Biochemistry, University of California at San Francisco TOXIC PEPTIDES vs HEALTHY PEPTIDES: What's the Difference? The use of the word "peptide" in cosmetic ingredients has taken on a meaning of its own as countless cosmetic companies strive to market their products as science-based cosmeceuticals that can do more than just make the skin temporarily look better. But what is the difference between peptides used in many so-called anti-aging creams/serums and the peptides invented by biochemist Dr. Loren Pickart? Let's review a few important differences. First of all, it is important to note that not all peptides are safe. Many peptides are actually toxic. Simply put, a peptide is made up of chains of amino acids that are linked together in a defined order. Usage and efficacy depends on what the peptide consists of and proven evidence of safety. In fact, it is essential that any peptide used to create a copper peptide have long term evidence of safety. Many toxic peptides act rapidly. But the danger can lie in the long term use of even very mildly toxic peptides that have no evidence of long term safety. See the following important study: Toxicity of Biologically Active Peptides and Future Safety Aspects: An Update. Authors: Khan F, Niaz K, Abdollahi M., Curr Drug Discov Technol. 2018;15(3):236-242. 0–44 Peptides are fragments of proteins with significant biological activities. These peptides are encoded in the protein sequence. Initially, such peptides are inactive in their parental form, unless proteolytic enzymes are released. These peptides exhibit various functions and play a therapeutic role in the body. Besides the therapeutic and physiological activities of peptides, the main purpose of this study was to highlight the safety aspects of peptides. We performed an organized toxicity and search of available literature using PubMed, Google Scholar, Medline, EMBASE, Reaxys and Scopus databases. All the relevant citations including research and review articles about the toxicity of biologically active peptides were evaluated and gathered in this study. Biological peptides are widely used in the daily routine ranging from food production to the cosmetics industry and also they have a beneficial role in the treatment and prevention of different diseases. These peptides are manufactured by both chemical and biotechnological techniques, which show negligible toxicity, however, some naturally occurring peptides and enzymes may induce high toxicity. What to Use Instead: Healthy peptides are proven peptides. For example, the use of GHK-Cu (1st generation copper peptide originally discovered by Dr. Loren Pickart) has been intensively studied. No negative effects have ever been observed at any reasonable dosage up to and over 3% GHK-Cu. Our second generation copper peptides employ the use of peptides derived from safe, non-GMO hydrolyzed soybean proteins that have been used for intravenous feeding of hospital patients for many decades. These also are very safe and have been proven effective. Dermatologist Howard Maibach (who has published over 3,000 papers and over 100 books on skincare) published four articles on Skin Biology's second generation copper peptides, using the product BioHeal. All confirmed results were health positive in terms of better looking skin. Add this easy-to-use combo to your fall skincare regimen: - Apply 3% GHK VIP Luxury Serum: Contains the highest percentage of the original skin-beautifying copper peptide: GHK-Cu. Enhance with Two Timing Tightener 2X (potent DMAE skin-firming serum) on top. Both products are best applied lightly. - Moisturize with CELES Skin Beauty Oil: A light biological moisturizer blending esters of cholesterol and lanosterol with squalane and topical vitamin D. - Spot treat deep lines and wrinkles with 2nd generation copper peptide powerhouse: Super Cop 2X.
