The Peptide Nurse

"Your Complete Guide to Healing, Optimization, and Getting Your Body Back"

The Basics

The Guide Patients Were Asking For

After years of answering the same questions from patients — What are peptides? Are they safe? Which ones do I need? — Courtney Jones, RN wrote the book she wished existed. The Peptide Nurse demystifies one of the most powerful and misunderstood areas of modern wellness medicine.

Written in plain language for real people — not just clinicians — the book covers how peptides work, what the research actually says, how to choose the right protocol, and how to work with a qualified provider safely.

  • How peptides work at the cellular level — in plain English
  • Which peptides target weight loss, healing, aging, and cognition
  • How to find a qualified provider and avoid unregulated sources
  • The difference between compounded and research-grade peptides
  • What labs to run and how to monitor your protocol safely
