BPC-157
Mechanism
Body Protection Compound-157 is a synthetic peptide derived from human gastric juice. It promotes angiogenesis, upregulates growth hormone receptors, and accelerates tendon, ligament, and gut healing through nitric oxide and FAK-paxillin pathway modulation.
Typical dose
250-500mcg per day, split into 1-2 doses
Cycle length
4-6 weeks, with 2-4 week break between cycles
Form
Injectable (subcutaneous), oral capsules
Where to source it
The hard part with BPC-157 isn't the protocol. It's finding a supplier that can prove what's in the vial. We assessed dozens against per-batch, third-party testing. A handful passed.
