About BPC-157

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide based on a sequence found in human gastric juice. In animal studies it has shown broad tissue-healing effects across tendon, ligament, muscle, and the GI tract, along with angiogenesis and endothelial protection. This evidence is almost entirely preclinical (rodent); human data is limited to a small early-phase safety study and pilot reports, and no controlled efficacy trials in people have been published.

Key Benefits

  • Accelerated tendon/ligament/muscle healing in animal studies
  • Supported gut-lining integrity in animal models
  • Promoted angiogenesis and reduced inflammation (preclinical)
  • Human evidence limited to early safety/pilot reports
