Edition / SA / 001
Peptides, longevity, and the science of signal.
An editorial intelligence platform for South Africans rethinking how they age, perform, and recover. We translate the research, decode the signal, and help you design your protocol with discernment.
The Architecture / 02
Five series. One intelligence platform.
Peptide Protocol SA publishes across five distinct verticals — each engineered to serve a specific question, every one written with editorial discipline and analytical rigour.
SERIES / 01
The Longevity Brief
A weekly intelligence dispatch. The signal you need to make sense of where the longevity field is moving — and what it means for the way you live.
SERIES / 02
The Peptide Files
Compound-by-compound deep dives. Mechanism, evidence, edge cases, and why each one earns a place in the Protocol — or doesn't.
SERIES / 03
GLP-1 Diaries
The first SA-specific record of life on GLP-1 therapy. Personal, clinical, and unflinching about what the rest of the conversation leaves out.
SERIES / 04
The Protocol Blueprint
Structured frameworks for stacking compounds, sequencing protocols, and building a longevity practice that fits a real life.
SERIES / 05
Biohack SA
Local context. Where to find what, who actually knows what they're doing, and how to navigate the SA longevity landscape with discernment.
On the cover / 03
This week's lead.
The Peptide Files / 04
Eight compounds. One disciplined roster.
Most platforms list everything. We don't. Each compound on the Peptide Protocol roster has earned its place through evidence, mechanism, and editorial scrutiny.
PF / 001
BPC-157
Repair / Gut
The body protection compound. A peptide chain isolated from gastric juice, now central to the modern injury and gut-repair conversation.
Open the filePF / 002
TB-500
Repair / Tissue
Synthetic thymosin beta-4 fragment. Where BPC-157 finishes the sentence, TB-500 often starts it — connective tissue, vascular repair, recovery.
Open the filePF / 003
GHK-Cu
Skin / Hair / Repair
A copper peptide discovered in 1973 plasma. Quietly the most studied longevity peptide on the roster, with fifty years of dermatological literature.
Open the filePF / 004
MOTS-C
Mitochondrial / Metabolic
A mitochondrial-derived peptide that exercises like exercise does. The metabolic signal lever for the post-fifty conversation.
Open the filePF / 005
NAD+ / NMN
Cellular / Energy
Not technically a peptide. Always in the conversation. The cellular currency that everything else has to spend in order to work.
Open the filePF / 006
GLP-1
Metabolic / Weight
The compound that broke into the mainstream. Read with care — there is more to the GLP-1 story than weight, and more to weight than this peptide.
Open the filePF / 007
Epitalon
Pineal / Telomere
A four-amino-acid Russian discovery with a forty-year longevity dataset. The most under-discussed compound on the modern roster.
Open the filePF / 008
Thymosin Alpha-1
Immune / Infection
The immune signal peptide. Used clinically for hepatitis, sepsis, and immunological recovery — and now part of the resilience conversation.

Editorial stance / 05
We don't sell peptides. We make sense of them.
Peptide Protocol SA is built by an analyst, not an influencer. Our background sits in research and intelligence work — pattern recognition, signal versus noise, the discipline of being right rather than first.
The longevity field has more momentum than ever. It also has more nonsense. We exist to give South African readers a calm, rigorous, well-written place to think clearly about what works, what is uncertain, and what is being marketed to them.
The protocol is the easy part. The signal is the work.Read the full editorial stance
