BPC-157 5mg, TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4) 5mg, GHK-Cu 20mg
(30mg Total Glow Blend)
The BPC-157, TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4), and GHK-Cu mix is a mix of three different peptides, measured at 5 mg of BPC-157, 5 mg of TB-500, and 20 mg of GHK-Cu, for a total of 30 mg.
Researchers have been interested in BPC-157, a peptide initially isolated from gastric proteins, because of its ability to promote the growth of blood vessels and healing of injured tissue through a range of cellular mechanisms.
TB-500, a naturally occurring fragment of a larger protein, is typically studied for its ability to migrate cells into injured areas. It encourages the formation of new blood vessels, and reduces inflammation, especially in muscle and connective tissue.
The third ingredient, GHK-Cu, is a low molecular weight copper-binding peptide that has been linked in studies to wound healing, collagen synthesis, and even hair growth stimulation.
Together, these three compounds appear to have an effect on the same biological processes, but with a broader effect than any of them would have in isolation.
For example, TB-500 and BPC-157 both cause the growth of new vessels, while GHK-Cu adds another layer of support by activating the growth of the cells that line blood vessels.
On the structural repair side of tissues, TB-500 enables cell migration by promoting actin activity, while GHK-Cu and BPC-157 both influence fibroblasts and collagen to offer support for stronger connective tissue.
A second point of overlap is in reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, and it may be here that researchers are hopeful for these peptides in longer-term recovery studies.
As a result of these synergistic and shared activities, the blend is being investigated for use in everything ranging from musculoskeletal trauma to wound healing and post-surgical recovery.
