BPC-157

BPC-157 is a peptide studied for its healing properties, originally isolated from a protective protein in human gastric juice. It's one of the most-researched compounds in this space, with over 100 published studies on tissue repair, gut healing, and inflammation, though the majority of that data comes from animal research.

CJC-1295 (without DAC)

CJC-1295 without DAC (also called Mod GRF 1-29) is a short-acting peptide that tells your pituitary gland to release more growth hormone. It works with your body's natural rhythm, triggering growth hormone in pulses rather than flooding your system with a constant supply.
