BPC-157 is a natural protein found in the human stomach and digestive tract. Most proteins are broken down in the stomach and are reduced to their amino acid constituent parts -- which is why the oral delivery of protein drugs such as insulin has thus far been effectively impossible -- but BPC-157 is, surprisingly, highly stable and orally bioavailable. It has been surmised that it functions as an endogenous anti-ulcer agent and angiogenic growth promoter, and that its primary site of action is the digestive tract.
Yet supplementation with BPC-157 has been shown to improve overall wound healing [1], improve ligament healing [2], improve tendon healing and increase HGH receptor expression in recovering tendon injuries [3], accelerate muscle recovery from crush injuries [4], accelerate soft tissue recovery, [6] and more. In all cases, it was delivered orally. It appears to mediate these effects by increasing growth factor expression -- e.g. HGH receptor expression -- at injury sites. [6, 7]
The "BPC" stands for body protection compound, and, true to its name, there's no more potent natural compound for tendon, ligament, and muscle recovery.
