Frequently Asked Questions
Honest answers about our approach to wellness, the products we offer, and how we get them to you.
Our approach
What is Better Body Lab’s approach to wellness?+
We believe that improving your body should be guided by science, not hype. We source quality-tested supplements, skincare and research peptides, and we share clear information so you can make informed choices about your own health and improvement journey.
What products do you offer?+
We offer three categories: supplements for foundational wellness, skincare for external health and confidence, and research peptides for cutting-edge laboratory research into body improvement. Each category is carefully sourced and quality-checked.
Are your products tested?+
Yes. Every batch is tested for purity and identity. A certificate of analysis is included on each product page where applicable, and additional documentation can be requested by email.
Can I get bulk discounts?+
Yes — contact us via the contact form for laboratory and institutional bulk pricing.
Products & science
What is the difference between supplements, skincare and research peptides?+
Supplements and skincare are proven wellness products designed for everyday use. Research peptides are specialist compounds used in laboratory research to study biological processes. They are the most advanced category in our range and are sold only for research purposes.
Do your supplements and skincare contain peptides?+
Some skincare and supplement formulations may contain peptides as functional ingredients, but these are cosmetic or nutritional products, not research peptides. Our research peptide products are listed separately and are strictly for laboratory use.
How should products be stored?+
Supplements and skincare should be stored as directed on their individual labels. Lyophilised (freeze-dried) research peptides should be stored at -20°C for long-term stability. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within the period recommended for that specific peptide.
Peptide research
What are research peptides?+
Research peptides are short chains of amino acids manufactured for in-vitro laboratory and scientific study. All peptide products sold by Better Body Lab are intended exclusively for research use and are not approved for human or animal consumption.
How are peptides reconstituted?+
Typically with bacteriostatic water or sterile saline, in a quantity appropriate to the research protocol. Reconstitution is the responsibility of the researcher and is not advised by Better Body Lab.
What does "Research Use Only" mean?+
Our peptide products are sold for the sole purpose of in-vitro testing and laboratory experimentation by qualified researchers. They are not intended for use in humans, food, drugs, cosmetics, medical devices, agriculture, or commercial applications.
Orders, shipping & payment
How do I pay?+
Payment is by UK bank transfer only. Once you place an order we email you our bank details and a unique payment reference. Open your own banking app or online banking to make the transfer, quoting the reference so we can match it to your order. Orders are dispatched once payment has cleared. We do not accept card payments.
Do you ship outside the UK?+
Currently we dispatch within the United Kingdom only, with next-day tracked delivery for orders placed before 2pm. We may expand to the EU in future — sign up to the newsletter for updates.
How long does delivery take?+
Orders placed before 2pm Mon–Fri are dispatched the same day for next-day arrival. Orders placed after 2pm or at weekends are dispatched on the next working day.
How do you package orders?+
All vials are shipped in discreet, temperature-protective packaging with no external indication of contents.
Do you offer refunds?+

Do I need to be over 18 to order?+
Yes. Our website and products are strictly for adults aged 18 or over.
