BPC-157 Research Guide

Full name: Body Protection Compound-157

A pentadecapeptide derived from human gastric juice that promotes wound healing and tissue repair. Demonstrates remarkable regenerative properties across multiple tissue types including tendon, muscle, and nervous system.

How BPC-157 Works

Upregulates growth factor expression including VEGF and promotes angiogenesis, modulates nitric oxide system, and interacts with the dopaminergic system.

Dosing Protocol

• Typical dose: 250-500 mcg per dose
• Frequency: 1-2x daily
• Duration: 4-12 weeks
• Route: Subcutaneous injection (or oral capsules)

Reported Benefits

• Accelerated tendon and ligament healing
• Gut lining protection and repair
• Neuroprotective effects
• Anti-inflammatory properties
• Muscle tear recovery

Potential Side Effects

• Mild nausea (oral)
• Injection site irritation
• Dizziness (rare)
• Fatigue (rare)
