BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide that shows high effectiveness in restoring and rebuilding tissue whether diminished by injury or disease. BPC-157 is a ‘designer peptide’ with fifteen amino acids derived from digestive fluid and sequenced specifically for healing. As such, it produces an angiogenic effect – the process of creating new blood vessels and speeding blood flow to injured or ailing areas of the body, catalyzing the body’s natural ability to heal.

The flavanol epicatechin is used in the treatment of sarcopenia (muscle wasting), the body’s tendency to shed muscle as we age or reduce activity. Research into the effects of epicatechin measured changes in protein levels of molecular modulators to explore its effects on the size of muscle and found that epicatechin reduces myostatin (a marker that reduces muscle development) allowing maximal muscle building. By inhibiting myostatin, a protein that controls (and limits) the amount of muscle you can gain, epicatechin can improve muscle gain and the maintenance of healthy muscle tissue.
