12 peptides researched for recovery & healing.
Recovery peptides are among the most popular in regenerative medicine. They accelerate the body's natural healing processes. reducing inflammation, promoting new blood vessel formation (angiogenesis), and enhancing tissue repair at the cellular level. Athletes and individuals recovering from injuries are particularly interested in this category.
BPC-157 and TB-500 are the two pillars of this category but work through distinct mechanisms. BPC-157 promotes healing primarily through angiogenesis and nitric oxide modulation, with strong animal evidence for tendons, ligaments, and gut tissue. TB-500 (thymosin beta-4) works through actin regulation and cell migration, with some human clinical data from ophthalmic trials. They're often discussed as a combination due to their complementary pathways. LL-37 adds antimicrobial properties on top of wound healing. Selank, while primarily a nootropic, also has anti-inflammatory properties relevant to recovery.
