BPC 157 and TB 500 are two peptides famous for their ability to treat a wide range of injuries, including tendon or ligament ruptures, partial and very rarely even complete tears as well as bone fractures, burns, and wounds.
Both BPC 157 and TB 500 naturally occur in humans and animals. They play a variety of roles in the body, ranging from anti-inflammation and healing to gastric health. Athletes primarily use BPC 157 and TB 500 for their ability to rapidly heal an injury through a process known as “angiogenesis”.
This article is a comprehensive guide on using BPC 157 and TB 500 for treating injuries. It is based on the latest academic data, the analysis of thousands of anecdotal reports and experiences online, as well as my own experiments with myself and over 500 lifetime clients.
BPC 157 and TB 500 don’t need to be cycled. If trying to heal something or recover from an injury, you simply use them until you are healed.
You can dose BPC 157 and TB 500 simultaneously or separately. I recommend dosing them separately as they have different half-lives and will need to be injected at different times for optimal results.
If you didn’t already know this, I’ve included a detailed breakdown of both compounds further down the article.
BPC 157 can be injected or taken orally. Some prefer to take it orally for ease of use, but it’s much less effective and you’d have to take large amounts to get decent results. This is not only less effective for threating the injury, but also expensive to sustain.
Injectable administration is preferable for treating injuries.
Injecting BPC 157 subcutaneously, close to the injured area is the most effective way to use it as BPC 157 has incredible localized effects but mediocre systemic effects.
The ideal injectable dosage range for BPC 157 is:
You can inject either once or twice a day. I advise for more frequent injections, but once a day will also work.
Use BPC 157 as long as needed to heal your injury. There is no need to cycle it.
The exact half-life of TB 500 is still unclear. We only know that it is considerably longer than BPC 157. So daily injections are not required. It is recommended to do every other day injections, but every 3 days is also doable. This is the protocol most clinics follow.
Unlike BPC 157, TB 500 has incredible systemic effects. Meaning that it doesn’t matter where you inject it.
The recommended dosage range for TB 500 is:
If you’re trying to heal an injury, use TB 500 for as long as necessary.
Otherwise, many users get great results. When taking it for other purposes, many users benefit from cycling it for up to 8 weeks at a time.
The best way to use BPC 157 and TB 500 together is to simply dose them separately, as they have different half-lives.
Note: That doesn’t mean that you can’t inject them together. It’s as simple as mixing in TB 500 with your daily BPC 157 injections, but every other day.
IMPORTANT: BPC 157 and TB 500 come in powdered form. Before you can inject them you must reconstitute these peptides in bacteriostatic water! This article features a how-to on injections, keep reading.
BPC-157 and TB-500 share similar mechanisms of action, namely, for the purpose of treating injuries, they induce what is known as angiogenesis.
Angiogenesis is a biological process that involves the growth of new blood vessels from pre-existing ones. It is essential for wound healing and tissue repair, and whenever you sustain an injury your body heals it via this process.
Both BPC 157 and TB 500 promote and induce angiogenesis helping you heal injuries faster.
BPC 157 is derived from a naturally occurring sequence of amino acids found in gastric juices. When injected BPC 157 induces angiogenesis locally. It also has properties that greatly aid cognitive, cardiovascular and digestive health.
TB 500 is a synthetic form of a naturally occurring peptide Thysomin Beta-4 (TB4) which can be found in many tissues in both humans and animals. TB4 has many roles, but its main ones are tissue regeneration and anti-inflammation.
One of the most studied roles of thymosin beta-4 is in wound healing. It promotes cell migration, angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels), and downregulates inflammatory responses, thereby accelerating tissue repair.
In pathological conditions such as cancer, angiogenesis is often dysregulated, leading to the formation of abnormal blood vessels that support tumor growth and metastasis. So taking TB 500 if you have cancer is a very bad idea to say the least.
Subcutaneous belly fat injections are the easiest and least painful for TB 500. BPC 157 has amazing localized effects, but mediocre systematic effects. So the optimal way to use it is to inject it subcutaneously close to the injured area.
To do the injections you will need:
How to do the subcutaneous injections:
When taken together BPC 157 and TB 500 create a synergy unlike any other, and are capable of healing injured tendons, ligaments, and even bones.
They have been extensively used and recommended by thousands of professional athletes, bodybuilders, and even everyday people that were lucky enough to stumble upon them.
There are thousands of anecdotal cases online showcasing their potential to heal injuries, which further supports the scientific data we have on them.
Most importantly, they are side effect free (unless you already have cancer). If you are over-concerned, you can opt to skip TB 500 and just do BPC 157. But, in my opinion, you should be alright taking both.
Good luck, and I wish you a speedy recovery!
Everything you would ever want or need to know about SARMs, and how to properly use, maximize, and recover from them.
The SARMs Wiki is the culmination of 7 years worth of knowledge coming from independent experimentation with myself and hundreds of my clients, probably thousands of hours of research, going through every study, and the online reports of thousands of SARMs and PED users.
If you're ready to spend 150$+ on SARM cycles, why not do it right from the very start and save yourself the troubles of dealing with the nuances and complications of PED use?
The Peptide Wiki is an all-in-one guide that will give you a deep understanding of how each peptide works and how you can use them correctly and find the perfect one (or stack) to reach your goals (16 Total Most Popular Peptides Covered).
Not only will you learn how these peptides work in your body, but you will also learn how to prevent their potential side-effects, and how to reconstitute, dose, and store use them correctly (super easy to mess this up).
If you're going to spend hundreds of $ on Peptides, you might as well do them right.
