BPC-157 BPC-157

A lab-made peptide based on a protective stomach protein, hugely popular online for claims about healing tendons, guts, and injuries. Almost all of the supporting evidence comes from animal and lab-dish studies — there are no real human trials proving it works or is safe.

Also known as Pentadecapeptide, PL 14736, Bpc 157, Bepecin, Bpc 15, pl-10, 8ED8NXK95P, RefChem:121176, Bpc157
