Gut Health & Inflammation care at LiveNow Longevity — physician-led by Dr. Charles Kamen, MD in Las Vegas
Dr. Charles Kamen, MD, board-certified neurologist.

Persistent digestive discomfort and chronic, low-grade inflammation are common and often linked. At LiveNow Longevity, gut health is evaluated medically by Dr. Charles Kamen, MD — with attention to the systemic effects inflammation can have on energy, cognition, and overall health.

We look for contributing factors before considering any protocol, and peptides studied in this context are prescribed and supervised, never sold over the counter.

Every plan begins with a complete medical evaluation by Dr. Charles Kamen, MD. Individual results vary, and we do not guarantee specific outcomes.

Why It Happens

The gut lining is a single-cell barrier that controls what enters the bloodstream while housing much of the immune system. When that barrier or the gut environment is disrupted — by diet, stress, medications, infection, or inflammation — the effects can extend well beyond digestion, contributing to fatigue, brain fog, and systemic inflammation.

Chronic inflammation itself is a driver of many of the symptoms patients describe, which is why gut health is increasingly viewed as central to overall wellness rather than an isolated digestive issue.

How Our Approach Helps

Dr. Kamen evaluates your history, symptoms, and relevant markers, and addresses contributing factors before recommending any protocol. The plan is individualized and supervised.

Where appropriate, peptides studied in a gut and anti-inflammatory context may be considered — BPC-157 is studied for gut-lining and tissue support, and KPV is studied in an anti-inflammatory context. They are sourced from licensed U.S. compounding pharmacies and prescribed only after evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can peptides help with gut health?

BPC-157 and KPV are studied in gut-lining and anti-inflammatory contexts and may be considered when medically appropriate, after evaluation and under physician supervision. They are not FDA-approved drugs.

How is gut health connected to other symptoms?

The gut houses much of the immune system and influences inflammation, which can affect energy, cognition, and overall health. That is why gut health is evaluated as part of the bigger picture.

Do you sell gut peptides directly?

No. Everything is prescribed and monitored by Dr. Kamen after a medical evaluation and sourced from licensed U.S. compounding pharmacies.

How much does the evaluation cost?

The initial medical evaluation is $88 and includes a clinical consultation and lab orders when appropriate.
