COMPONENTS:
-
TB-500•a 43-amino acid derivative of thymosin that’s found naturally in most cells•promotes wound and tissue healing•promotes hair growth (especially in conjunction with PRP)•in studies, it promoted the formation of new blood vessels
-
LL-37•a 37-amino acid cleavage product of human cathelicidin (an antiviral, antimicrobial, and anti-biofilm peptide)•can cling to and poke holes in negatively-charged bacterial cells and viral membranes•helps modulate immune function•helps fight a variety of infections, particularly respiratory illnesses•protects against gut inflammation and gut infections•helps call other immune cells to the site
-
Selank•a 7-amino acid peptide created by joining Tuftsin with another three amino acids•helps regulate inflammation•supports antiviral immune•improves sleep vs. wakefulness balance•increases BDNF in the hippocampus, which can boost mood and cognitive function•promotes a strong gut mucosal barrier•helps with insulin resistance and metabolism
-
Thymosin Alpha-1•a 28-amino acid peptide that’s found naturally in the human thymus•protects T cells from apoptosis (cellular death) and protects against oxidative damage•improves antibacterial and antiviral responses•promotes balanced immune function•improves metabolism and helps with weight management•promotes wound and tissue-healing processes
A MASSIVE BOOST FOR THE IMMUNE SYSTEM TO SHIELD YOUR BODY FROM PATHOGENS
Especially useful for those looking for a massive uplift in immune function, our Armor protocol contains a powerful combination of immune-boosting and antimicrobial peptides and hormones, including Selank and LL-37, which demonstrate antiviral properties and resemble our natural antiviral and antibacterial peptides in the respiratory tract, respectively.
Armor also increases and modulates the function of T-cells, which are a major part of the body’s immune system and have the potential to recognize pathogens and foreign particles, attacking the cells that have been compromised or infected.

FAQS
Our team of clinical experts have answers.
Our Armor Peptide Therapy contains Selank, LL-37, TB-500, and Thymosin Alpha-1. This therapy provides a powerful combination of immune-boosting and antimicrobial peptides. This is a good therapeutic adjunct for those looking to bolster their immune system or for those recovering from an acute illness.
This peptide therapy is administered via subcutaneous injection using a small insulin needle. The peptides are pre-drawn in syringes for patients at the prescribed dose. Injections are given Mondays through Fridays in the morning with the weekends off.
There is some pain associated with all injections. However, insulin needles are quite small, and with proper injection technique the pain is minimal. The best sites for injection include the fat in the abdomen and the buttocks.
Results derived from peptide therapy are variable from patient to patient and range from very subtle to profound depending on one’s individual needs and health status. In general, we expect patients to see some improvement in symptoms within 1 to 2 weeks though some patients report noticeable improvement after the first few injections.
In general, peptide therapy is very safe. However, allergic reactions are possible with any medication, and peptides are no exception. Though allergic reactions are very rare, symptoms can range from transient local site irritation to more severe symptoms including hives. We advise those with severe or frequent allergic reactions to discuss peptides therapy with their Allergist or primary care physician prior to seeking a consultation.
Yes, more than one peptide protocol may be used at the same time. Our team of medical providers will help determine which peptides are right for you and if it is appropriate to combine therapies.
At this time, there is minimal data regarding the safety of peptides in pregnant and breast-feeding mothers. Therefore, we do not prescribe peptides to pregnant or breast-feeding persons.
If you miss an injection we recommend resuming the therapy the next day. Additional or make-up doses are not recommended.
The peptides are shipped in foil packaging at room temperature. Our pharmacist has tested the stability of the peptides at various temperatures and determined they are stable and safe to be shipped without ice. To preserve freshness please store them in the refrigerator after receipt.
The expiration date is listed on each peptide label. The peptides are good for 3 months when stored in the refrigerator or 6 months when stored in the freezer.
Yes. The peptides are stable at room temperature for up to 72 hours during travel. Koniver Wellness cannot guarantee that peptides will not be confiscated by security or customs at the airport. However, patients routinely travel with their peptides, and to date we have never been notified of an issue. Please store the peptides in the refrigerator when you arrive at your destination.
