Reviews
Gave oral BPC/KPV/TB-500 500mcg each to my 58-year-old uncle. Took twice a day on empty stomach. His heartburn went away immediately. Walking and talking improved. Blood pressure perfect. Shoulder pain that kept him up at night healed. He finally got his life back.
After 3 weeks of BPC-157, chronic tennis elbow pain was gone. Nothing else worked - PT, rest, NSAIDs. This peptide is a miracle for tendon injuries. No side effects noticed.
BPC-157 significantly sped up recovery from a meniscus tear. Went from limping to running in 4 weeks. The subcutaneous injections leave small bumps but no real pain. Oral version tastes terrible though.
