How Ayurveda Explains What Modern Longevity Protocols Don’t

Confused About Peptides, Protein, and Longevity Supplements?

If you’re paying attention to longevity science right now, you’ve heard the words peptides, collagen, glycine, NAD, mitochondria, and protein synthesis more times than you can count.

Yet many thoughtful, health-literate people are left wondering:

• Where does this actually fit in my body?

• When should I take what—and why?

• How do I avoid stressing my system or wasting money?

Modern protocols often tell you what to take, but not how the body integrates it.

Ayurveda fills that gap.

Ayurveda Was Always a Tissue Science

Long before peptides were named, Ayurveda mapped the body through the Seven Dhatus—the tissue layers that govern repair, immunity, aging, and resilience:

• Rasa (plasma & lymph)

• Rakta (blood)

• Mamsa (muscle)

• Meda (fat)

• Asthi (bone)

• Majja (nervous tissue)

• Shukra / Ojas (reproductive & immune essence)
