In animal studies it has shown effects on tendon repair, gut lining healing, and new blood vessel growth, often by raising VEGF
Some users continue longer for severe injuries or conditions with known slow healing like TFCC tears
Additional animal injury models highlight the anti-inflammatory and pain reduction properties of BPC-157 [12, 13]

in Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine reviewing the complete BPC-157 musculoskeletal literature to June 2024 confirmed pre-clinical evidence of improved structural, biomechanical, and functional research applications across fracture, muscle, tendon, and ligamentous injury models
This occurred even though only 12.4% in the analysis had a B12 insufficiency (meaning they were at the borderline for a deficiency), and only 3% had a B12 deficiency
