By merging the vascular-stabilizing, receptor-modulating properties of BPC-157 with the migratory, cytoskeletal, and angiogenic support functions of TB-500, the blend may offer a more robust and adaptable repair stimulus than either peptide alone
It was first developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson, a Russian scientist, in 1980
