Anti Aging
​Peptides are short chains of amino acids naturally occurring in the body, acting as signaling molecules that regulate various physiological functions. With over 7,000 identified peptides, they play roles in processes such as sleep regulation, muscle development, and sexual function. As we age, the production of certain peptides declines, potentially impacting these vital processes

Peptide therapy involves supplementing or mimicking these naturally occurring peptides to restore or enhance specific bodily functions. By introducing synthetic or naturally derived peptides, this therapy aims to rejuvenate and regulate various physiological activities, potentially addressing issues related to aging or peptide deficiencies.
BPC-157, known as Body Protection Compound 157, is a synthetic peptide consisting of 15 amino acids. Originally derived from a protein found in human gastric juice, BPC-157 has garnered attention for its potential regenerative and healing properties across multiple tissues, including muscles, tendons, ligaments, and the gastrointestinal tract.
Accelerated Wound Healing: BPC-157 has been observed to promote faster healing of muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves by enhancing the body’s natural repair mechanisms.
Pain Reduction: Studies suggest that BPC-157 may decrease pain in damaged areas, offering relief for individuals with injuries or inflammatory conditions.
Enhanced Growth Hormone Receptor Expression: Research indicates that BPC-157 can increase the expression of growth hormone receptors, potentially amplifying the effects of growth hormone in tissue repair and regeneration.
Increased Collagen Production: BPC-157 may stimulate collagen production, essential for maintaining the strength and integrity of connective tissues.
Promotion of Tendon Fibroblast Activity: The peptide has been shown to encourage the outgrowth and survival of tendon fibroblasts, crucial for tendon healing and maintenance. ​
Liver Protection: BPC-157 exhibits protective effects on the liver, potentially mitigating damage from toxins like alcohol and certain antibiotics.Â
Anti-Inflammatory Properties: The peptide demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects, which can be beneficial in treating various inflammatory conditions. ​
Digestive Function Improvement: BPC-157 has been associated with healing inflamed intestinal tissues and improving conditions like leaky gut syndrome and inflammatory bowel diseases.
It’s important to note that while BPC-157 shows promise in various therapeutic areas, its use is not universally approved by regulatory bodies such as the FDA. Individuals considering BPC-157 therapy should consult with qualified healthcare professionals to thoroughly understand the potential benefits and risks associated with its use.
Some of our most frequently asked questions from our clients who see us day-to-day.
BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic peptide derived from a protein found in human gastric juice. It is known for its potential regenerative and healing properties, particularly in tissues such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, and the digestive system. It works by promoting blood vessel growth, reducing inflammation, and enhancing tissue repair at the cellular level.
BPC-157 is believed to accelerate wound healing, reduce inflammation, improve gut health, support joint and tendon recovery, promote nerve regeneration, and protect against liver damage. It may also enhance the body’s natural ability to recover from injuries.
BPC-157 is commonly available in two forms: oral capsules and subcutaneous or intramuscular injections. Oral administration is typically used for gastrointestinal issues, while injections are preferred for systemic effects and injury recovery.
While early research and anecdotal reports suggest that BPC-157 is well-tolerated with minimal side effects, it has not been officially approved by the FDA for human use. More clinical trials are needed to establish its long-term safety and effectiveness.
Although BPC-157 is generally considered safe with low toxicity, some users have reported mild side effects such as nausea, dizziness, headaches, or irritation at the injection site. As with any supplement or peptide therapy, consulting with a healthcare professional before use is recommended.
BPC-157 is not FDA-approved for medical use in the United States but is available for research purposes. Some compounding pharmacies and research suppliers offer it, but users should be cautious about sourcing and ensure they are compliant with local regulations.
