BPC-157, GHK-Cu and KPV Blend
The story
Each part has its own history. BPC-157 came from Predrag Sikiric's Zagreb work on how the stomach protects itself, from 1993. GHK-Cu came from Loren Pickart's 1973 discovery of a youth factor in human plasma. KPV came from Anna Catania and James Lipton cutting alpha-MSH down to its smallest calming piece, with gut work at Emory in 2008. Practitioners joined the three to repair, rebuild and calm in one injection.
