What is BPC-157?
BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide that is derived from a protein called body protection compound. It is a naturally occurring peptide found in the gastric juice of human beings, but it can also be synthesized in a laboratory. BPC-157 has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, making it a potential treatment for various injuries and conditions.

What is Thymosin beta 4/What is TB-500?
Thymosin beta 4 is a naturally occurring peptide that is found in many different tissues in the body. It is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell migration, angiogenesis, and wound healing. Thymosin beta 4 has been shown to have regenerative properties, making it a potential treatment for various injuries and conditions.
Why Use BPC-157 and TB-500 Together?
BPC-157 and TB-500 are often used together to promote healing and recovery from injuries because they have complementary effects. BPC-157 has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, helping to reduce inflammation and promote tissue repair. TB-500, on the other hand, is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell migration, angiogenesis, and wound healing. By using these peptides together, individuals may benefit from a more comprehensive approach to healing that addresses both inflammation and tissue repair.
My Experience Using BPC-157 and TB-500 to Heal an Injury (Tennis Elbow, Rotator Cuff)
I used BPC-157 and TB-500 (TB4 is what I actually bought) to heal my extreme tennis elbow that was created by rotator cuff issues I’ve had for the past few years. After 1.5 weeks of treatment, my tennis elbow pain was reduced by 95% and my shoulder feel much stronger.

Conclusion
BPC-157 and Thymosin beta 4 are two peptides that have shown promise in promoting healing and recovery from injuries. As someone who has personally used these peptides to heal from a severe case of tennis elbow, I can attest to their effectiveness. However, it is important to note that these peptides are not approved by the FDA for human use and should only be used under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional. If you are considering using these peptides to help heal an injury, be sure to consult with your doctor first.
