DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide) is a synthetic peptide known for its potential to promote deep, restorative sleep. It was originally discovered in the brains of rabbits and has been studied for several possible effects, although human research is limited.
Commonly researched uses of DSIP include:
- Improving sleep quality – May help with falling asleep faster and achieving deeper stages of sleep, especially delta wave sleep.
- Reducing stress – May lower cortisol levels and support a more balanced stress response.
- Supporting hormonal balance – Some studies suggest it may influence the release of hormones like luteinizing hormone (LH) and growth hormone.
- Pain modulation – It may have mild analgesic effects.
- Anti-aging support – Due to its connection with restful sleep and growth hormone, it’s sometimes explored in longevity protocols.
