If you need help recovering quickly from an injury you may find success with peptide treatments.
Anyone has the capacity to injure themselves through physical activity. Dependent on fitness level and mental state, those who participate in sports as a hobby, bodybuilding, MMA or those who work in industries requiring physical labour will be more inclined to experience injury.
Active people who find themselves getting injured with frequency or those finding injury healing time is much more delayed than expected will benefit from using peptide supplementation. It is evident that as we age, healing from injuries will take a lot longer than when we were young. This is due in part to our GH levels. Most people who are 30+ will have some GH deficiency that is affecting their ability to repair and recover from accidents.
sprains can also trigger an inflammatory process around the damaged tissue called tenosynovitis in tendons. As the connective tissue has a much less dense blood supply than the muscle cells, the connective tissue has a much slower repair rate. For those requiring quick injury recovery and repair, peptide supplementation can be a worthwhile option.
TB500 - how it works!
So recently there has been a lot of talk about this peptide. Statement like, “It will help you heal faster”. “You recover more quickly from injuries” and so on. So what is TB500, what does it do, and how does it work.
So recently there has been a lot of talk about this peptide. Statement like, “It will help you heal faster”. “You recover more quickly from injuries” and so on. So what is TB500, what does it do, and how does it work.
TB 500 is a naturally occurring peptide. It is part of the thymosin family of peptides. Structurally it is unique in that it has a unique binding ability. This is relative in that it binds to certain substances and transports them to areas of injury. TB500 is found throughout the body, in many tissues, but is heavily concentrated in areas of injury.
The first effect of TB 500 is it reduces inflammation. It does this via 2 mechanisms. It first works to lower inflammatory inducing cytokines. These cytokines induce systemic inflammation. Secondly there is a derivative of TB 500 that actually works to reduce inflammation of white blood cells. The cells responsible for immune system function.
As far as healing there are 2 primary mechanisms that TB 500 utilizes to promote and expedite healing. First it has a direct effect on Actin. Actin is a hair like substance that surrounds cells. It is responsible for the movement, growth and binding of cells. It plays a crucial role in healing. Second it is responsible for the activation of cells known as progenitor cells. These cells are unique in that they can assimilate with different cell types. They also produce protein and growth factors that promote healing.
As you can see TB500 isn’t just some peptide that worked in horses so it will work in our research, it has hard data supporting its effects and the benefits of those effects are often desired in our researching. The goal of this write up was to point those benefits out and support them with solid references
How BPC-157 Works!
BPC, stands for “Body Protecting Compound”. Your body already makes it in your own gastric juices in very small amounts, where it serves to protect and heal your gut. But if you can get the super concentrated version and get it into your system, it has an extremely high level of biological healing activity just about anywhere you put it!

BPC-157 is surprisingly free of side effects, and has been shown in research that’s been happening since 1991 to repair tendon, muscle, intestines, teeth, bone and more, both in in-vitro laboratory “test-tube” studies, in in-vivo human and rodent studies, and when used orally or inject subcutaneously (under your skin) or intramuscularly (into your muscle).
BPC-157 is also known as a “stable gastric pentadecapeptide”, primarily because it is stable in human gastric juice, can cause an anabolic healing effect in both the upper and lower GI tract, has an antiulcer effect, and produces a therapeutic effect on inflammatory bowel disease
so you may be now wondering why in the heck your physician, physical therapist, surgeon, gastroenterologist, etc. hasn’t told you about this stuff.
Since BPC-157 is a completely natural gastric juice peptides, it’s technically not patentable. This means big pharma can’t make money off BPC-157, and that means it’s not getting marketed to your local doctor or hospital or anywhere else in the healthcare system. It’s also not available as an FDA regulated drug, or even considered to be “sellable” for human use.
