GHK-cu
This combination of peptides repairs skin and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. It is also used for hair growth in clients. The Argireline and Leuphasyl combination add in botox like effects with the ability to reduce fine lines and wrinkles by ~30% in 30 days (Lim). GHK-cu is a great peptide not only for skin but also for it’s ability to help with wound healing. It is used often topically for the face or other areas to reduce wrinkles. It can help with hyperpigmentation or UV radiation damage. Though, it is hypothesized that CHK-cu can also help with age-related cognitive decline when used as an injectable (Pickart).
Helps with:
– Improves elasticity
– Tightens skin in clinical studies
– Improves skin density and firmness
– Improves photo-damage and hyperpigmentation
– Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
– Improve skin clarity
– Increases keratinocyte production
– Reverses thinning skin
– Repairs skin
– Helps smooth rough skin
– Protects skin from the harmful UV radation
– Increases hair growth, thickness and enlarges hair follicle size
– Anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory
– Possibly age-associated neurodegeneration and cognitive decline
– Reset genes of diseased cells from patients with cancer or COPD to a more healthy state
– Suppress fibrinogen synthesis
– Activates genes of DNA repair
– Activates genes of the antioxidant system
BPC-157
One of the best healing peptides available. This peptide has been said to be a favorite among peptide doctors over and over again. BPC-157 has many unique abilities to heal the body. It was first identified in the gastric juices in the stomach. This peptide has no actual primary effect but instead it is a signaling molecule. BPC has a variety of uses. It is one of the most useful peptides in practice with the versatility that it offers. It can help with tendon, bone and muscle repair. It can prevent or heal gastric ulcers. It protects the stomach against NSAID lesions. It potentially can aid in depression. It can heal bone. This is a great peptide to use before and right after any surgery. BPC has the ability to do a lot of healing throughout the body. It’s a very good to place when it comes to peptide therapies.
Helps:
– Increases expression of growth hormone receptors
– Improves muscle healing
– Regulates BP
– Treat periodontitis
– Lower need for growth hormone or sex hormones
– Eye injuries
– Repairs tendon
– Repairs muscle
– Repairs intestine
– Repairs bone
– Repairs teeth
– Repairs brain
– Repairs the cornea
– Can modulate blood vessel growth in muscle and tendon healing
– Influences the nitrous oxide system
– Autoimmune
– Promotes liver healing and protect against alcohol and toxins
– Can be used as a neuroprotective such as right after a traumatic brain injury
– Anti-inflammatory
– Arthritis
Thymosin Beta 4
This wonderful peptide has a multitude of uses. It is found in almost all cells. It most notably is seen to increase healing in all areas of the body. Thymosin Beta 4 (TB4) has been found to be useful in dry eye and corneal wound healing disorders (Sonse). It has been found useful in increasing the number of cells that are involved in healing. It also can be found to help these cells move to the area that has been injured. TB4 is anti-inflammatory. It helps promote new blood vessel growth, which can aid in healing. It helps lay down more collagen. It can protect cells against harmful agents that enter the body (Sandersm).
Some areas thymosin beta 4 may help:
– dry eye
– corneal wound healing disorders
– fatty liver disease
– hair growth
– general repair
– cardiac protection
– neuroprotective
– antimicrobial
– decreases scar tissue formation
– improves T cells
– stem cell maturation
– Soft Tissue Repair – tendon, ligament, muscle
– Sports/athletic injuries
– Pressure or venous stasis ulcers
– Conditions requiring immune response modulation
– Brain issues if autoimmunity suspected
– Ischemic stroke
– Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
– Concussion
Pentosan Polysulfate
Pentosan is quite an amazing anti-inflammatory that can be used in cases of osteoarthritis as a weekly therapy. Studies have shown that it can it can help increase cartilage is osteoarthritis joints. It has reduced pain an inflammation in osteoarthritis patients (Kumagai). It also works on infectious arthritis, which has been found more frequently in the united states in the last decade (Herrero). Significant improvement has been found in osteoarthritis. This has been found to be a potent anti-inflammatory agent as well that can be used to bring down inflammation (Ghosh).
Helps with:
– Inhibits metalloprotenase which are all about degradation of tissue
– Potential anti-cancer agent
– Reduce pain and inflammation with osteoarthritis
– Works on kidneys to preserve kidney function
– May prevent kidney stones
– Works on innate and adaptive side of the Th2 cytokines
– Nasal pentosan may help rhinitis, chronic sinusitis, and allergic sinusitis
Cerebrolysin
This peptide has been used in Europe for sometime now to help with age related cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s, dementia and traumatic brain injuries. In nerve pain, cerebyolysin works on the TRPV 1 receptor that controls pain.
Helps with:
– Alzheimer’s
– Dementia
– Nerve pain
– Concussions
– Stroke
