BPC-157 is a 15-amino-acid peptide isolated from human gastric juice. It promotes healing across multiple tissue types — tendons, ligaments, muscle, gut lining, and even nerve tissue. It works by stimulating growth factors, promoting blood vessel formation, and reducing inflammation at injury sites.
Injected near the injury site for localized healing, or into belly fat for systemic effects

• Active cancer (promotes angiogenesis)
• Pregnancy
• Anticoagulants — theoretical interaction due to angiogenesis effects
Pregnancy: Not studied in human pregnancy. Avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Both promote tissue repair. BPC-157 is more focused on GI and tendon healing; TB-500 on broader tissue regeneration. BPC-157 has more published research.
