Peptide therapy Brain, mood and sleep
DSIP Delta sleep-inducing peptide
What it is, what people take it for, and what the research actually shows, in plain language.
Research stage: Older small human studies
What is DSIP?
A peptide isolated in the 1970s from the brains of sleeping rabbits.
What do people take DSIP for?
Deeper sleep, stress.
What does the research show about DSIP?
Small human studies from the 1970s and 80s with mixed results, and little modern work. Whether it induces sleep in people at all remains unsettled.
Is DSIP right for me?
That depends on your history, your labs and your goals, which is a conversation for a physician rather than a web page. At Aether Medicine in King of Prussia, near Philadelphia, or by video for patients in Pennsylvania, a physician-led evaluation looks at all three to find out whether DSIP, or something else, is right for you.
