Chronic pain affects approximately 20% of adults worldwide, and for those with Amplified Pain Syndrome (APS), the experience of pain is magnified by an overactive nervous system. While often under-addressed, a growing body of evidence suggests that what we eat can influence inflammation, nerve sensitivity, and the gut-brain axis, all of which are implicated in amplified pain.

Over 5,000 antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have been discovered across all life kingdoms, functioning as a key component of innate immunity against pathogens. Understanding how to get antimicrobial peptides is essential for harnessing their potential, which can be achieved through dietary intake, microbial fermentation, or laboratory synthesis.
