Beyond the lack of research on BPC-157, there are concerns over how people are accessing peptides in general
Im not talking taking experimental peptides to avoid surgery, but EPO, Lance Armstrong-style cheating
The peptide downregulates TNF- (6.2-fold reduction) and IL-6 (4.1-fold reduction) while upregulating anti-inflammatory IL-10 (8.1-fold increase)[12]
The reason we say this is a marketing scheme rather than accurate promises is because: The research findings only apply to animal models and no studies demonstrating efficacy in human models
It has been used to treat conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), ulcers, and leaky gut syndrome by promoting mucosal healing and reducing inflammation within the gut (Jain et al., 2021)
Doctors should look at genetic tests and each patients situation to find the right dose
