Peptides, recovery and tissue repair

Peptides promoted for tendon, muscle and gut healing - BPC-157 and TB-500 among them - are supported mainly by rodent studies. There are almost no published randomised human trials, none of these compounds is approved for human use, and the FDA has flagged safety concerns for some of them in the compounding context.
