While they are highly effective at masking inflammation or allowing an athlete to train *through* a compromised structural integrity, they do not necessarily resolve the root cause of tendonosis or chronic joint strain
[1] TB-500 is a synthetic fragment of Thymosin Beta-4 (T4) , a 43-amino-acid actin-sequestering protein found in nearly all mammalian cells
It is naturally present in human blood, saliva, urine, and its plasma concentration declines with age from approximately 200 ng/mL at age 20 to under 80 ng/mL after age 60

Preclinical studies suggest that BPC-157 promotes healing of muscles, ligaments, tendons, and blood vessels, while also regulating inflammatory and oxidative stress responses without hormonal action
Peptides such as sermorelin and tesamorelin may promote clinically significant muscle growth in research settings thanks to their mechanism of elevating the natural synthesis of growth hormone and, consequently, IGF-1
