16 profiles

BPC-157

Body Protection Compound-157

Cat 1 — 2026
injectableoral
Evidence

15-amino acid peptide derived from human gastric juice. Promotes tissue repair, gut healing, and angiogenesis. Among the most-researched repair peptides available.

TB-500

Thymosin Beta-4 fragment

Cat 1 — 2026
injectable
Evidence

Synthetic fragment of Thymosin Beta-4. Promotes systemic tissue repair through actin regulation and stem cell activation. Often stacked with BPC-157.

Ipamorelin

Growth Hormone Secretagogue (selective)

Cat 1 — 2026
injectable
Evidence

The most selective GH secretagogue available. Stimulates strong growth hormone release with minimal cortisol or prolactin side effects. Considered the gold standard secretagogue.

GHK-Cu

Copper peptide / Glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine-Cu²⁺

Cat 1 — 2026
injectabletopical
Evidence

Naturally occurring copper-binding peptide found in human plasma. Declines significantly with age. Influences over 4,000 genes. Strongest evidence base for topical skin applications.

CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin Stack

CJC-Ipa / GH Stack / Secretagogue Combination

Cat 1 — 2026
injectable
Evidence

The most commonly prescribed GH secretagogue combination in US longevity medicine. CJC-1295 provides GHRH stimulation while Ipamorelin provides ghrelin receptor stimulation — two complementary pathways for natural GH optimization.

GLOW Blend

AminoClub GLOW / Cellular Peptide Blend

Cat 1 — 2026
injectable
Evidence

A proprietary AminoClub peptide blend formulated for skin rejuvenation, cellular repair, and anti-aging. Combines synergistic peptides targeting collagen synthesis, skin barrier function, and cellular regeneration.

KLOW Blend

AminoClub KLOW / Cellular Peptide Blend

Cat 1 — 2026
injectable
Evidence

A proprietary AminoClub peptide blend formulated for metabolic optimization, body composition, and longevity. Targets the GH axis, metabolic pathways, and cellular health simultaneously.

Wolverine Stack

BPC-157 / TB-500 Combination / Recovery Stack

Cat 1 — 2026
injectable
Evidence

The most researched tissue repair combination in peptide science. BPC-157 and TB-500 work through complementary mechanisms — local repair signaling and systemic actin regulation — making them the gold standard recovery stack.

Ipamorelin

Growth Hormone Secretagogue (selective) / GHS

Cat 1 — 2026
injectable
Evidence

The most selective growth hormone secretagogue available. Stimulates strong GH release with minimal cortisol or prolactin side effects. Gold standard for GH axis optimization.

GHRP-6

Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6

RUO only
injectable
Evidence

Early GH secretagogue notable for strong appetite stimulation via ghrelin pathway. Studied for cachexia and muscle wasting. Also has gastroprotective properties similar to BPC-157.

IGF-1 LR3

Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 Long R3

RUO only
injectable
Evidence

Modified IGF-1 with 3x longer half-life. Directly stimulates muscle protein synthesis and satellite cell activation independent of the GH axis. Significant cancer risk concern.

Follistatin-344

FST-344 / Myostatin Inhibitor

RUO only
injectable
Evidence

Myostatin inhibitor studied for exceptional muscle growth by blocking the body's natural muscle-growth limiter. Dramatic animal model results. Significant organ growth safety concerns.

KPV

Lys-Pro-Val tripeptide / α-MSH fragment

Cat 1 — 2026
injectableoral
Evidence

Tripeptide fragment of alpha-MSH with potent gut anti-inflammatory effects. One of the few peptides with genuine oral bioavailability making it uniquely valuable for gut-specific research.

SS-31

Elamipretide / MTP-131 / Bendavia

RUO only
injectable
Evidence

Mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide that protects the inner mitochondrial membrane. Reduces oxidative stress and restores ATP production. In Phase II and III clinical trials for heart failure and Barth syndrome.

Cartalax

AED tripeptide / Ala-Glu-Asp / T-31

RUO only
injectable
Evidence

A synthetic tripeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp) from the Khavinson family of short peptide bioregulators. Studied in cell culture for cartilage matrix biology and connective tissue gene expression. Evidence is entirely preclinical — cell culture and gene expression studies from a single Russian research group. No human clinical trials exist as of 2026.

ARA-290

Cibinetide / Innate Repair Receptor agonist / IRR agonist

RUO only
injectable
Evidence

A synthetic 11-amino acid peptide derived from erythropoietin (EPO) that selectively activates the Innate Repair Receptor (IRR) without stimulating red blood cell production. Studied for neuropathic pain, small fiber neuropathy, sarcoidosis, and metabolic syndrome. Has completed Phase II human trials. Genuinely interesting evidence profile for a non-hematopoietic EPO derivative.
