Most healing compounds break down before your body can even use them. BPC-157 is different. It’s a naturally occurring protein fragment found in the stomach that’s stable in gastric acid, which means it can survive digestion and still reach the bloodstream - one of the few compounds of its kind that doesn’t require an injection. That’s also why people often feel results more quickly - improved gut repair, reduced inflammation, and faster recovery at the tissue level have all been documented in early studies (e.g., Sikiric et al., Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2018). When a molecule works with your biology instead of fighting it, you notice the difference.
