BPC-157

Overview

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic research peptide derived from a partial sequence of the body’s naturally occurring Body Protection Compound (BPC) found in gastric juice. It is widely studied in laboratory environments for its potential to support tissue repair, promote healing, and aid recovery in preclinical models such as laboratory rodents.

Benefits

Preclinical studies suggest that BPC-157 may promote accelerated healing of muscle, tendon, and ligament tissue, support gastric and intestinal health, and improve recovery from injury in test subjects. Researchers have also explored its potential protective effects on the gut lining and blood vessels in animal models.

Possible Side Effects

In laboratory research, BPC-157 has shown minimal side effects in test subjects, but possible mild effects may include localized injection site irritation or transient changes in appetite and fluid retention, depending on dosage and study duration.

Dosage & Administration

BPC-157 is typically administered via subcutaneous or intramuscular injection according to approved laboratory protocols. Typical research dosing ranges from 200 mcg to 500 mcg per day, depending on study design, research objectives, and species involved. Some studies have also explored oral administration in laboratory settings.

Summary

BPC-157 is a synthetic research peptide developed exclusively for studies investigating tissue repair, healing, and recovery in preclinical models. Research indicates it may help promote faster recovery and protect the gut and connective tissues, with mild side effects such as minor injection site irritation occasionally observed. BPC-157 is administered by subcutaneous or intramuscular injection, with dosage and frequency tailored to specific research goals and test species.
