discovered that iodine intake could result in a dose-dependent elevation in blood cholesterol levels among hens (44)
This means consistent use over multiple cycles can continue to produce benefits without needing to increase the dose
Unlike growth hormone peptides (which work through the pituitary) or GLP-1 peptides (which work through gut and brain receptors), BPC-157 works primarily through a different mechanism: it upregulates growth hormone receptors in tendon cells, stimulates angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels), and modulates nitric oxide signaling all of which contribute to accelerated tissue repair and reduced inflammation

At the same time, it controls the amount of a growth hormone inhibiting hormone (GHIH), known as somatostatin, which downregulates pituitary GH secretion
