BPC-157- Summary
- Kisspeptin-10 is the biologically active C-terminal decapeptide of kisspeptin, an endogenous regulator of the reproductive axis. It acts upstream of GnRH to potently stimulate LH and testosterone release, and plays a key role in sexual arousal and libido.
- BPC-157 is a synthetic pentadecapeptide derived from a protective protein found in the stomach. It is one of the most extensively researched healing peptides, known for accelerating tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and protecting the gastrointestinal tract.
