DSIP


DSIP

Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) has many potential benefits, including: 

  • Sleep: DSIP can help improve sleep quality, regulate sleep patterns, and reduce sleep disturbances. 
  • Pain: DSIP can help reduce pain states in people with chronic pain, alcoholics, and opiate addicts. 
  • Stress: DSIP can help relieve emotional and psychological responses to stress, and reduce oxidative stress. 
  • Withdrawal syndrome: DSIP is being used in clinical trials to treat withdrawal syndrome from alcohol and opiates. 
  • Hormone levels: DSIP can help improve hormone levels. 
  • Physical performance: DSIP can help improve physical performance. 

DSIP is a natural nonapeptide that’s found in the brain and easily passes the blood-brain barrier. It’s thought to influence sleep by affecting neurotransmitters and brain receptors involved in sleep regulation.

What does DSIP do?

DSIP Peptide for Sleep

DSIP is involved in neuroendocrine regulation and release of anterior pituitary hormones. In humans, DSIP influences the secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and growth hormone (GH). It also plays a role in the regulation of circadian rhythms.

What is the DSIP peptide growth hormone?

Since the peptide induces EEG changes characteristic of slow-wave sleep and since GH release is associated with this type of sleep in the human, it is possible that DSIP may be involved in mediating sleep-induced GH release.
