How Much BPC-157 Peptide Should I Inject

How much BPC57 should I inject? Well, in this video, I'm going to deconstruct what most people miss as far as understanding the intentionality behind why you're using this uh really cool molecule called body protective complex. And I'm also going to show you what to do when it comes to taking it orally, is it as effective as an injection? And then if you're wondering how much to inject, there's some real insights that I found when it comes to injuries. And this is uh you know working with peptides for over a decade and witnessing the dramatic improvements when people have used this powerful complex called BPC-157 which is uh made by your gastric secretions. This is an analog of these amino acid structures that can turn on all kinds of pathways because if you think of these peptides like BPC157 these are just like magnificent signaling factors. And so we've used like vitamins and supplements and herbs and small molecule drugs for a long time. And what they do is they change the deficiency statuses in our body. They also can manipulate a pathway so they suppress symptoms. But what peptides do is it's like the orchestrator of turning on all the genes that we want expressed so that now you can have this clear music coming into your ears. Let's jump in. I'm Reagan Archbald. I'm the founder of Ageless Future. We are a longevity focused uh clinic that specializes in peptides uh regenerative medicine and microbiota transformations. We've helped people for over 21 years. And I make these videos because I believe that you can optimize your health if you have the right data and take the right action. I also don't want you to take this as medical advice. Make sure you talk to your physician or reach out to us. go to agelessfeature.com and then we can help direct you based on what injuries you have or what things you want to use BPC157 for. So let's talk about the data. What does the data show on BPC? Well, here's a study and this one is called the pentadcaeptide BPC57 enhances growth hormone receptor expression in tendon fibroblast. So that's kind of a long title, but tendon fibroblast are the cells that turn on the regeneration of your tendons. So just like your stomach, you're losing cells every 2 days roughly. Your small intestines about every 3 days, your body is always having this attrition of cells, but then you have stem cells and regrowth of these cells. The tendons, it's the fibroblasts that allow your muscles, your tendons, your ligaments to start to recover. And when growth hormone is expressed in those tendons, what you'll see is a dramatic acceleration in your body's ability to recover. If you've ever had an injury and you're like, "Man, this thing is just dragging on forever." It's because you don't have enough of these fibroblasts to help accelerate the angioenesis or the formation of new blood vessels. You don't have the inflammation uh decrease that you need. And then you also don't have the stem cells to start proliferating that area. And one of the ways you can call in more stem cells, get more fibroblastic growth factor into the area is with BPC57. So here's what they found. This was um this study was done out of the Zegra School of Medicine in Croatia. These tendon fibroblasts were isolated from rat Achilles tendons and they were treated with BPC57 at various concentrations. Um what they assessed uh was subsequent cell proliferation uh when growth hormone was added and what their conclusion was is that the BPC157 and then time dependent so there you know growth hormone follows the circadian rhythm. So time dependent increased uh growth hormone receptor expression at the tendon fibroblast and subsequent growth hormone exposure regulated greater cell proliferation suggesting a mechanism by which BPC57 may potentiate tendon healing because they found in the studies um far before 2014 that um BPC57 actually accelerated the healing time in rabbits where they damaged the Achilles tendon by like a magnitude of three times. So, when you're thinking of dosing it, well, how much do you inject? Well, here's what we found. If you have if you're just looking for general inflammation repair, this is where you'd want to do like 250 micrograms daily. And that's what I've done historically for about um over a decade. And I'll typically take one to two days off per week. But if I'm training extra hard, if I'm working out and I've got that big race coming up on my heavy days where I'm adding in more miles, I'm in the gym more, I may go up to 500 micrograms or even up to a milligram, a full milligram. That's actually really important. And I notice I sleep better. I feel uh less muscle soreness. I don't get the DOMS, the delayed onset muscle soreness, which I don't know if you've ever experienced that. Not fun, but u part of the process. But if you if you actually have an injury, uh like I've torn my rotator cuffs in my shoulders and and this is no joke, four times, you know, first accident, I ran into a skier, uh when I was snowboarding at Park City, and um had a full thickness tear. Uh we we injected stem cells, I did BPC, thymus beta 4. You know, another accident I had, I wanted to test the hypothesis was skateboarding, tore the other rotator cuff, fix it the same way, and then I had two rotator cuff tears skiing at Deer Valley. And uh I don't recommend doing it, but I do know that anytime I have a little bit of a glitch, like if I fall when I'm mountain biking or skiing or whatever activity I'm doing, or if I try to keep up with my boys on bench press or shoulder press and kind of flare up my shoulders, you can inject a full milligram of BPC into the area. And this is where you're going to see an acceleration for tendons, ligaments, just all kinds of tissue structures have a much greater level of support and healing and far lower levels of pain just by being able to use this peptide in such a way. And so when you're looking at the dosing, you can go up to 750 micrograms up to a full milligram per day. And this is one that you do want to cycle. Um what the research shows if you add in uh some of the growth hormone releasing peptides you can add in like CJC1295 make sure it's within do not use it separately or independent don't use the DAC the the drug affinity complex that you know causes a two uh longterm pulse you just want little pulses you just want we're just trying to nudge biology and that's what we're learning about a lot of these peptides is they're just gentle BPC seems to be one of those if you're stacking it. One of the things that happens when you have like thymus and beta 4, it mobilizes more stem cell proliferation. BPC57 is kind of like it turns on. It's like the master key that opens up all the locks on the cells so that they're ready to heal. And then thyus beta 4 is like the engineers that come in and repair the place. The growth hormone peptides is what adds all the all the raw materials to the construction site. if you're reconstructing a shoulder, a knee, a neck injury, and then um you know over time it's just you want to maintain that level of healing that you did and that's where micro doses come in. So um and the micro doses can be as as you know like I said as as low as like 25 micrograms where you seem to get the results. If you have a need digestively, sometimes oral may be better. And I've got other videos on that. And if you want to go deeper into those videos, I'll make sure I provide a link in the show notes. And so, just to summarize, when you're looking at dosing injections, if there's any kind of injection site redness, make sure you're using proper clean needle technique. These peptides, BPC157, once again, make sure you've got medical supervision if you are entering into these uh this pathway. And then I do have a whole video on rotator cuff injuries. So for those of you who have ever injured your rotator cuff, check out my video on rotator cuff injuries because I know what it's like at night to have that ache. Feels like a toothache. So if you're thinking about using BPC157 and you want to go deeper on some of the science and understanding the real effects, just click on the video here and I'll see you in the next video.
