Who searches for it, and why
Peptides refers to the surge of interest in therapeutic and performance peptides such as BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu, semaglutide and tirzepatide, promoted by longevity clinics, biohackers and podcasts, and sold through compounding pharmacies, telehealth and grey-market research-chemical sites. Searchers are consumers researching benefits, dosing and sourcing. Regulation is tightening and quality varies. The trend signals large demand for education, vetted sourcing, clinic services and tracking tools, with meaningful legal and safety risk.
