That distinction may sound tidy online, but it does not change the central problem: patients still need better evidence, better sourcing clarity, and better medical supervision than the peptide world usually provides
GHK-Cu is stable at physiological pH (6.57.5) but dissociates below pH 4 or above pH 9, releasing free copper, which can be pro-oxidant if unbound
Owing to its unique structure and mode of action, SS-31 demonstrates potential therapeutic value across cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, kidney injury, and myopathies associated with mitochondrial dysfunction 1-6
It can balance the immune response and regenerate tissues in IBD patients
For musculoskeletal injuries that aren't responding to conventional treatment, the combination of PRP injections and orthobiologics has substantially more human clinical evidence behind it than BPC-157
