BPC-157 Peptide

How can BPC-157 be administered?

BPC-157 can be administered in several ways:

• Subcutaneous injections (SubQ): Common, easy self-administration.
  
• Intramuscular injections (IM): Faster absorption, slightly harder to self-administer.
  
• Oral capsules or tablets: Convenient but lower absorption.
  
• Topical gels/creams: Non-invasive but limited absorption.
  
• Intravenous injections (IV): Rare, rapid absorption, requires professional administration.
  

What are the potential benefits of BPC-157?

Research and anecdotal reports suggest BPC-157 may:

• Accelerate wound and tissue healing
• Promote muscle recovery and strength
• Protect gastrointestinal health
• Support cardiovascular health through angiogenesis
• Stimulate collagen synthesis for anti-aging
• Improve mood, clarity of thought, and overall well-being

What are the possible side effects of BPC-157?

Although generally considered safe in research, reported side effects may include nausea, headaches, digestive issues, fatigue, appetite changes, fluid retention, dizziness, and fluctuations in blood sugar levels. Long-term human safety has not been fully established.

BPC-157 effectiveness

Wound Repair

A review published in 2015 suggests that BPC-157 can promote wound healing. The study also suggests that this peptide increases the rate of fibroblast movements into damaged tissue, which helps facilitate faster wound healing. The research also suggests that BPC-157 could be a beneficial topical treatment for skin chemical burns, tissue formation, collagen deposition, and so on [2].

Another research suggested that BPC 157 could potentially induce complete healing of rectovaginal fistulas in rats, which is significant for future clinical applications [3].

Tendon Healing

Studies showed that healing tissues showed increased levels of bFGF, EFG, and VEGF using BPC-157. This means that the peptide can directly or indirectly increase hormone levels and growth factors to help tissue healing [4].

Cancer

A 2020 study shows that the peptide decreases inflammatory cytokines, which helps stunt some of the pathways leading to cancer growth [5].
