what each one is
BPC-157
Synthetic pentadecapeptide · tissue-repair research
BPC-157 is a synthetic pentadecapeptide, a chain of 15 amino acids, derived from a partial sequence of a protein identified in human gastric juice, sometimes referred to as Body Protection Compound. It is a stable, water-soluble peptide and one of the most frequently cited reference compounds in tissue-repair and cellular research.
