BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic peptide derived from a protective protein found in the human gastric juice. It consists of 15 amino acids and is known for its powerful regenerative and healing properties. BPC-157 is stable in the human body and bioavailable when taken orally in capsule form.
The primary function of BPC-157 is to accelerate tissue repair. It promotes angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels), supports tendon and ligament healing, protects the gastrointestinal tract, and improves muscle and joint recovery. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects.
BPC-157 influences the nitric oxide (NO) system, supports collagen production, and stimulates fibroblast activity—key mechanisms involved in wound healing and structural tissue regeneration. It is often used in sports medicine and research for improving recovery from injuries and surgeries.
Key effects of BPC-157 include:
- Accelerated healing of tendons, ligaments, muscles, and nerves
- Protection of the stomach lining and gut (especially in NSAID-induced damage)
- Enhanced joint recovery and reduced inflammation
- Improved blood vessel formation and circulation
- Potential neuroregenerative properties
- Support in healing intestinal damage (e.g., ulcers, IBD)
BPC-157 is considered safe in research settings due to its low toxicity and high tolerance in various studies. It is not associated with significant side effects and does not suppress natural hormonal function.
