Peptide of the Week: Melanotan I & II

Peptide of the Week: Melanotan I & II – Tanning, Libido & Skin Protection

Welcome back, warriors! In this episode of Peptide of the Week, JD Denham and William T. Haas break down the differences between Melanotan I and Melanotan II. Two peptides that go beyond just sunless tanning. From aesthetics to sexual health and UV protection, these compounds have gained massive attention for good reason.

Originally studied for skin cancer prevention, both peptides mimic alpha-MSH (melanocyte-stimulating hormone) stimulating melanin production, darkening skin safely, and even helping regulate appetite, energy, and libido. But while they share a similar root, their effects and applications are very different.

We cover:
