Sage’s Evolve Her Protocol We developed our "Evolve Her" program to help women in peri-menopause and menopause feel like themselves again. It starts with a deep dive into your symptoms, labs, and goals—and results in a personalized peptide stack that evolves with you. The Takeaway Menopause is not the end—it’s a new beginning.

Peptides 101: The Future of Health Optimization Starts Here If you’ve heard whispers about peptides but aren’t sure what they are or how they work, you’re not alone. Once reserved for elite athletes and longevity researchers, peptide therapy is now one of the most exciting frontiers in modern wellness—and Sage Wellness and Health is proud to be leading the charge. What Are Peptides? Peptides are short chains of amino acids—essentially small proteins—that act as signaling molecules in the body. They tell your cells what to do, whether that’s to produce more growth hormone, stimulate collagen, regulate metabolism, or improve immune function. Think of them as precision messengers that help your body function better. Why Peptides Matter Unlike traditional pharmaceuticals that often force a reaction in the body, peptides work with your natural physiology. They’re highly targeted, customizable, and generally well-tolerated when prescribed by a trained expert. At Sage, we see peptides as the next evolution of proactive, personalized medicine. What Can Peptides Help With? Peptides are incredibly versatile. Depending on your goals, we can design protocols that support: Weight loss and metabolic health Muscle growth and recovery Skin rejuvenation and anti-aging Cognitive clarity and stress resilience Immune support and inflammation control Hormonal balance and libido Why Choose Sage for Peptide Therapy? We don’t believe in cookie-cutter protocols. Every client at Sage receives a comprehensive intake and lab review, followed by a completely customized peptide stack. Our goal is to not only improve how you look and feel—but to extend the quality of your years with science-backed solutions. Ready to Start? Peptides aren’t a magic bullet, but they are one of the most powerful tools in functional medicine today. Whether you’re seeking peak performance, graceful aging, or vibrant energy, we’re here to design a plan that works for your body and your goals.
