BPC-157
Elite ResearchBPC-157 (Body Protecting Compound-157) is a synthetic peptide derived from a portion of a protein found in human gastric juice
It consists of 15 amino acids and is being researched for its potential regenerative and protective effects on various tissues
BPC-157 is thought to promote tissue repair by enhancing angiogenesis (blood vessel formation), modulating inflammation, and upregulating growth factors like VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor)
It may interact with nitric oxide pathways and support collagen synthesis, aiding wound healing and tissue regeneration
It appears to have protective effects on the gastrointestinal tract, brain, and other organs, potentially by stabilizing cellular structures under stress
Potential Applications
Wound and Tissue Healing: Accelerates healing of tendons, ligaments, muscles, and bones
Gastrointestinal Protection: Protects against and heals damage from ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease, and NSAID-induced gut injury
Neuroprotection: Shows potential in mitigating brain damage from trauma, stroke, or neurotoxins in preclinical studies
Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Reduces inflammation of arthritis and other inflammatory conditions
Cardiovascular and Liver Protection: May support heart and liver function under stress or injury
Other: Investigated for effects on periodontal disease, spinal cord injuries, and even counteracting side effects of certain drugs (e.g., antipsychotics or NSAIDs)
Research application
Copied from the handbook as research notes. and not instructions.
Injectable
- 5 mg vial of BPC-157 reconstituted with 2 mL BAC water
- Low end: 112mcg/day
- High end: 1120mcg/day
- Common dose is 100mcg-500mcg 1-2x a day
- 100mcg = 4 units
- 250mcg = 10 units
- 500mcg = 20 units
2-6 on weeks followed by 2-4 weeks off
- Personally I start dosing at a minimum of 1mg. But that’s just me
Oral
- Beginners: Start with 100–300 mcg daily to assess tolerance
- General Use: 500 mcg per day, often taken as a single dose or split into two 250 mcg doses
- Higher Doses: 500–1,000 mcg daily, sometimes divided into two doses for more intensive recovery or gut health support
Unless other wise noted intermuscular (IM) peptides are commonly administered via subcutaneous (SQ) injection with 30-31 gauge syringes
