The SSRP Institute

Patient-centered care starts at the cellular level. We teach the language of the cell so you can interpret disease and dysfunction through mechanisms, pathways, and measurable signals—and translate that insight into real clinical decisions. Whether you’re new to Cellular Medicine or already using peptides and advanced therapeutics, the SSRP Community helps you keep building with evidence-based frameworks, shared clinical context, and collaborative case discussion, so you can deliver more individualized care safely and effectively.

The SSRP Institute is dedicated to advancing safe, effective, patient-centered care.

Journal Club – Episode 092

Aging-Associated Decline of Phosphatidylcholine Synthesis is a Malleable Trigger of Natural Mitochondrial Aging

Dr. Seeds explores how age-related decline in phosphatidylcholine synthesis may contribute to mitochondrial aging and why that matters in Cellular Medicine. This discussion connects membrane integrity, mitochondrial function, methylation, and metabolic resilience, while highlighting how this pathway may be more modifiable than we once thought.

Dr. Seeds’ Office Hours – Episode 090

In this bonus episode from the MM15 Virtual Summit, Dr. Seeds addresses an important question around the use of GLP-1s for metabolic balancing in patients who do not need to lose weight. He shares his perspective on what may be considered microdosing, along with the clinical thought process he uses when determining appropriate dosing in these more nuanced cases.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which specialties get the most value from SSRP trainings?

We primarily serve licensed healthcare providers who manage complex or chronic conditions, including (but not limited to):

  • Internal medicine, family medicine, pediatrics
  • Endocrinology, cardiology, neurology
  • Sports medicine, orthopedics, pain management
  • Functional / integrative / regenerative medicine, aesthetics, metabolic and weight management practices

If you’re caring for patients with chronic disease, performance goals, or age-related decline, Cellular Medicine gives you an additional framework to understand why they are not responding to conventional approaches and what else you can do safely and ethically.

How is SSRP curriculum different from other peptide or anti-aging education programs?

Can I start small, or do I have to overhaul my entire practice model?
