REPAIR AND RECOVERY
BPC-157
What is BPC157?
BPC 157 is a synthetic peptide chain consisting of 15 amino acids sourced from human gastric juices. BPC-157 has been widely tested among animals studies and has proven to initiate healing properties and modulates inflammation.
How Does BPC 157 Work?
-
Increases angiogenesis and fibroblast activation, which is crucuial for wound healing.
-
Aids in the regeneration of damaged ligaments, tendons, muscles, and bone.
-
Signals nitric oxide pathways to improve tissue repair which are essential for improving blood flow
-
Reduces inflammation by reducing oxidative stress and supporting the body's natural inflammatory response.
-
Increase production of growth factors to involved in tissue repair and regeneration
When To Consider Using BPC-157:
-
GI Disorders (ex: IBS, Leaky Gut, Ulcers)
-
Soft Tissue, ligament, bone, and tendon injuries
-
Chronic Inflammatory Conditions
-
Surgical Recovery
Contraindications:
-
Active cancer due to angiogenesis properties
-
Hypersensitivity to peptide components
TB-500
What is TB500?
TB500 is a synthetic peptide chain of the naturally occurring peptide thymosin beta-4, a 43 amino acid chain. Thymosin beta-4 is found in all human and animal cells and plays an essential role in systemic soft tissue and wound healing, and inflammation modulation.
How does TB500 Work?
-
Promotes cell motility and migration essential for tissue remodeling and repair
-
Reduces inflammation, scar tissue, and fibrosis formation
-
Promotes recruitment of healing cells to site of injury to regenerate and heal tissues
-
Enhances vascular development to increase blood flow to site of injury
When to consider using TB500?
-
Muscle, tendon, or ligament injuries
-
Post-surgical healing
-
Cardiovascular repair/support
-
Chronic inflammatory or immune dysfunction
Best when paired with BPC-157 for synergistic injury and repair benefits
Contraindications
-
Active cancer due to angiogenesis properties
-
Severe bleeding disorders
GHK-Cu
What is GHK-Cu?
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper binding tripeptide formed by the complex of GHK and copper ions that is found in human plasma but declines with age. GHK-Cu pis critical for wound healing, collagen synthesis, tissue regeneration, skin-rejuvenating, and hair-growth stimulating. This peptide is known for it's anti aging effects.
How does GHK-Cu work?
-
Stimulates fibroblast activation and wound closure
-
Increases collagen synthesis to improve overall appearance of skin wrinkles and skin thickness and hydration
-
Proven to increase hair follicle size in animals studies
-
Regenerates blood vessels and improves tissue oxygenation
Who should use GHK-Cu?
-
Post-surgical or wound/scar healing
-
Anti-inflammatory or tissue recovery
-
Skin Repair
-
Hair regrowth and scalp health
-
Overall anti-aging benefits and cosmetic healing
Contraindications
-
Wilson's Disease of copper toxicity
-
High oxidative stress
Peptide therapy involves using short chains of amino acids to target specific healing, regenerative, or metabolic pathways in the body. While promising for conditions like inflammation, injury recovery, and anti-aging, most peptides are not FDA-approved for therapeutic use. Current data is primarily based on animal studies and limited human case reports, meaning more robust clinical trials are needed to confirm safety, efficacy, and long-term effects in humans.
