NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — 
Apollo House NYC, a physician-led longevity clinic directed by a board-certified cardiologist, has published a new study titled “America’s Longevity Capitals” that documents a roughly 2.5x increase in US relative search interest for “peptides” over the past year. The study’s most unexpected finding: the highest captured relative search share is concentrated in smaller, non-coastal markets, not major metropolitan hubs.
The Apollo House NYC study drew on two independent datasets. Keyword-research data estimates that “peptides” generates approximately 360,000 US searches per month and 630,000 globally. Separately, Google Trends data spanning August 17, 2025, through August 16, 2026, shows average relative interest climbing from 23.3 in the first four weeks to 62.5 in the final four weeks, an approximate 2.5x increase, with a peak score of 100 reached in April 2026. The study emphasizes that these are distinct measures: modeled monthly search-volume estimates and a normalized 0–100 relative interest index, respectively.
The geographic results challenge conventional assumptions. Wyoming recorded the highest captured state-level relative interest score of 100, followed by Utah (47), Nevada (46), Oklahoma (46), and Idaho (45). At the metro level, Cheyenne, WY–Scottsbluff, NE led at 100, followed by Glendive, MT (43), Odessa–Midland, TX (40), Lake Charles, LA (33), and Beaumont–Port Arthur, TX (33). Only the top five states and metros were captured from Google Trends, and the study does not assign rankings to New York City, Los Angeles, or any location outside those results. Google Trends scores reflect relative search share within each geography, not absolute search counts or per-capita figures.
“What stands out here is not a verdict on any treatment. It is the intensity of public curiosity,” said the board-certified cardiologist who leads Apollo House NYC. “People are searching for peptides alongside research and regulatory terms, which points to an increasingly active information-seeking conversation. Search behavior cannot tell us who uses a therapy, whether it works, whether it is safe, or whether it is appropriate for any individual.”
The study arrives during heightened mainstream attention to the longevity economy. Among rising Google Trends topics associated with “peptides,” PubMed increased 650%, Food & Drug Administration increased 350%, and Retatrutide increased 120%. These figures describe growth in related Google Trends topics, not growth in peptide search counts or treatment use.
Apollo House NYC’s analysis also places peptide curiosity within a broader longevity search landscape. Modeled US monthly estimates show GLP-1 generating 514,000 searches, TRT at 97,000, NAD+ at 77,000, and hormone replacement therapy at 57,000. The study cautions that these terms carry distinct clinical and consumer associations and should not be treated as interchangeable demand indicators. The research measures search curiosity only and does not establish treatment utilization, clinical access, effectiveness, safety, or health outcomes.
