What is BPC-157?
BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic peptide derived from a naturally occurring protein in the stomach. It consists of 15 amino acids and is studied for its regenerative and healing properties. BPC-157 is known as a cytoprotective peptide, which helps protect cells and tissues from damage.
Mechanism of Action
BPC-157 stimulates angiogenesis, promoting the formation of new blood vessels for improved nutrient and oxygen delivery. It reduces inflammation, accelerating tissue repair, and protects and repairs the gastrointestinal lining. It enhances healing of tendons, ligaments, and muscles by promoting cell migration and collagen production and supports nerve regeneration in certain experimental models.
Reported Benefits
BPC-157 may accelerate recovery from muscle, ligament, and tendon injuries. It can reduce joint pain and inflammation, support healing of gastrointestinal tract injuries, improve tendon and ligament strength, and potentially provide neuroprotective and cardiovascular benefits.
Administration (Research Use Only)
BPC-157 is typically administered subcutaneously (SubQ) or intramuscularly (IM). Common research doses range from 200–500 mcg per day, often split into multiple injections. Research cycles typically last 2–4 weeks, depending on the injury.
Safety and Legality
BPC-157 is a research peptide and not approved by the FDA for human use. Human clinical data is limited, and most studies are in animals. Side effects are not well-documented. Its use in competitive sports is banned by WADA.
