Peptide Therapy for Veterans: What Works
NAD+ for sleep and cognitive function, sermorelin for recovery and growth hormone restoration, glutathione for immune defense, tirzepatide for weight that accumulated post-service. Compounds that address the specific toll of military service.
What you're dealing with
Sleep hasn't been right since service
Disrupted sleep patterns from deployments and shift work don't reset automatically. Sermorelin enhances deep sleep by restoring growth hormone pulses during slow-wave stages. Better sleep quality in whatever hours you get.
The body absorbed years of punishment
Rucking, training, deployments, and operational tempo broke your body down. Growth hormone decline after service means the recovery systems that used to fix everything are running at half capacity. Sermorelin restores them.
Weight gain post-separation
Going from high operational tempo to civilian life often means rapid weight gain. The caloric expenditure dropped but the appetite didn't. Tirzepatide addresses the appetite signals, not the willpower.
Energy and focus aren't what they were
The mental sharpness and physical energy you had in your 20s during service faded faster than expected. NAD+ decline accelerates under physical and psychological stress. Restoring it helps recover that baseline.
Compounds that address this
Each compound is prescribed by a licensed physician and shipped from a US pharmacy.
NAD+
Cellular energy and cognitive function restoration. Improved sleep quality, mental clarity, and sustained energy. Blood levels increased 2.6-3.1x in clinical studies.
Sermorelin
Growth hormone restoration for sleep quality and physical recovery. IGF-1 levels restored to youthful levels in 14 days. Your body's repair systems working at full capacity again.
Tirzepatide
Addresses post-service weight gain at the hormonal level. 22.5% average body weight loss in trials. Works regardless of how the weight accumulated.
Glutathione
Master antioxidant for immune defense and cellular repair. Addresses the oxidative toll of years of high-stress service. NK cell activity increased 400%+ in trials.

Frequently asked questions
Does LYV accept VA insurance or Tricare?
LYV operates outside of insurance including Tricare. Prices are transparent and include the physician consultation, the compound, and shipping. Many veterans find this more direct and faster than navigating VA referral systems.
Will these interact with VA-prescribed medications?
Your LYV physician reviews your complete medication list including VA prescriptions before prescribing. Most LYV compounds are compatible with common medications. The key exception: PDE5 inhibitors cannot be combined with nitrates.
Can I use these alongside VA healthcare?
Yes. LYV is a separate service that complements VA care. Your LYV physician can coordinate with your VA provider if needed. There's no conflict between the two.
Are these the same compounds used in military wellness programs?
Several of these compounds are used in integrative medicine programs within military healthcare systems. LYV provides the same pharmaceutical-grade compounds with the convenience of telehealth and home delivery.
