BPC-157Injectable

A 15-amino-acid peptide derived from a protective protein in human gastric juice, studied for repair of tendon, ligament, muscle, bone, gut lining and blood vessels. Reconstituted with bacteriostatic water and injected under the skin or into muscle near the injury; not FDA approved and banned in sport.

TB-500Injectable

A synthetic form of thymosin beta-4 studied for wound healing, muscle, tendon and ligament repair, and reduced inflammation and scarring. Reconstituted with bacteriostatic water and injected under the skin, traditionally twice a week or daily at lower doses alongside BPC-157.

SemaxInjectable

A synthetic ACTH-fragment peptide developed in Russia in 1982 and prescribed there for stroke, brain injury, cognitive decline, and optic nerve disease. It raises BDNF to support memory, focus, mood, and protection of brain tissue. Reconstituted with bacteriostatic water and injected under the skin.

IpamorelinInjectable

A selective pentapeptide growth hormone secretagogue that binds the ghrelin receptor and triggers a pulse of the body's own growth hormone without significantly raising ACTH, cortisol, or prolactin. Reconstituted with bacteriostatic water and injected under the skin, most often alongside CJC-1295 No DAC.

GHK-CuInjectable

A copper-binding tripeptide the body already makes, with plasma levels falling from roughly 200 ng/mL at age 20 to about 80 ng/mL at 60. Studied for skin, hair, wound healing, nerve and tissue repair. Injected subcutaneously for systemic effects, or converted to a topical for skin.

NAD+Injectable

A coenzyme present in every living cell and central to energy production, DNA repair, and the body clock. Levels fall from around age 30 and may be down 50% or more by the 40s. Reconstituted with extra bacteriostatic water and injected under the skin or into muscle, in cycles.
