BPC 157 for Gut & Musculoskeletal Healing | DailyDocTalk 42

BPC 157 is one of my more favorite peptides, in part because it comes from something in nature, but also because it has such a powerful impact on gut healing and musculoskeletal healing. These two areas are commonly an issue for many people, which leads to its use in my clinical practice with great success.

​@brentflowers7612 I'm not sure how effective this will be for arthritis. Stem cells are probably a better (but much more expensive) option due to them being able to inject them directly into the disc. A disc replacement is an option I would consider myself, but im not sure about the success rate of those. I'm sure a few years down the line, disc replacement tech will have improved significantly and be the go to option.

I know I’m a little late just saw your comment. I think once doctors give a dosage to a patient even over the Internet they assume liability for that patient I mean, generally speaking 300mcg bpc + 250mcg tb500/Thymosin beta-4 sub Q once daily is a good start you always wanna start at the lowest this is kind of a medium you could do the tb500 2x week in stead of daily 250x7= 1,750/2= 875mcg twice a week. I find that if you can get a blend of the two together at the right dosage one sub Q injection daily is convenient and has great effect. i’ve done a lot of research, but not a doctor just giving guidelines or a starting point for research. 🙏🏼👊🏼

Hey Doc. I've been dealing with some knee pain and even got an MRI a few months ago. The diagnosis was patellofemoral chondromalacia. No ligament, tendon, or meniscus damage but it looks like some of the cartilage behind my left knee is wearing down. The doc that i went too wasn't really helpful just tried to get me on anti-inflammatory meds which I don't want to take because it seems like it's just treating the symptom. I've been trying to fix this issue for the last almost 2 years now.

Is it safe to take with omeprazole and famotidine for gastritis?

[@QHWelness]

Hey Doc really love what you are doing... I have mold illnesses plus it hit pretty badly my brain, we know I have a bad leaky gut, my question is about how taking it orally? Should I put the mix in a capsule or even an enteric coated one to go lower, my body is stuck in inflammation since such a long time, I feel hopeless. Also what doses and how many time a day do you suggest? Thanks for that

[@DrewTimmermansND]

It doesn't need to be oral, injectable works just as well! I'm sorry you are going through this. General recommendation is once per day. Sometimes we go more frequent in patients.

[@nycgotham]

After several years of sedentary life I picked up weightlifting again. I live in Queens so I had to drive 10 minutes away to Lake Success in LI and joined an LA fitness. I started slow but within a few months surprisingly I added muscle very quickly (I guess muscle memory is a real thing) I decided to start doing heavier weight with my last set doing a max load for 5 reps. Unfortunately that messed up my shoulder forcing me to therapy on my right shoulder. After 3 months there was very little improvement. I came across some peptide videos (Yours being one of those, so THANK YOU Dr.) and I ordered BPC 157. Within one month of two intramuscular injections daily (right in my shoulder muscle) my shoulder was in spectacular shape. I was getting quite strong and began doing a max weight set or two and my shoulder messed up again. I just started a combo bpc157 and BP500 blend, it's only been three days and I already started to feel a little improvement. There is a very odd thing that happens to me within a day or so of taking BPC157, I become regular. I suffer from a bit of constipation and I go every other day, sometimes once in 3 days. But when I'm on this BPC, I will hit the throne every day, sometimes twice a day. Has anyone experience this ? The 1st time I didn't connect it, but this cannot be a coincidence.

[@neslisultan]

Thank you so much for doing this video Doc! I have leaky gut and have experienced serious muscle wasting due to autoimmunity. Do you think BPC 157 can help build back the muscle I have "lost"? I know people mention it can repair damaged tissues but could it have the potential to reverse muscle atrophy?

Yes thank you! So indirectly it will help me fix the atrophy by getting to the route cause. Root cause is more important to me anyway... Was just wondering what the effects would be on muscle... I will experiment. 🙏🏻 thanks again!!

Drew Timmermans, ND co’mon man.... what are you a fake DR.... it says in the label: body protection complex “blend” (doesn’t list actually ingredients) it not BPC “BODY PROTECTION COMPOUND” BPC-157 needs to be injected and orally it is destroyed by the stomach acids. What’s in here? Just collagen?

[@DrewTimmermansND]

BPC157 does not need to be injected, it is stable in gastric juice (have you even read any of Sikiric's papers?) And tailor made compound owns the patent for BPC157 arginine salt which is what is in their product. Ive been using their product for about 2 years now and didn't see any changes when they had to move from compounded med to OTC

[@adalbertnords]

Hi Drew! I've noticed that you are fairy active in your comments section so I'll try my luck to get your opinion on the case of mine - because, I must confess, I am a little desperate for some alternative aid. The thing that I struggle with is a calcified distal tendon of a right triceps (plus the osteophyte that grows out of the ulna). To get it 'cleaned out' I had a surgery about 14 months ago and the latest UGS shows that it's all back. Osteophyte grew back and the tendon is still with the calcified spots. Elbow hurts so much I can't go back to sport - it's quite impossible to make one painess pull up... Do you think there is something in BPC that may help? Please, share your thoughts. Thank you!

[@DrewTimmermansND]

I'm sorry to hear you've been through that. It is possible that it may help with some of the pain associated with it. Not sure if it will reverse any bone growth (highly unlikely), but not all bone growths are painful so it could still help with symptoms! If you're going to try it, we recommend this one (bit.ly/2WsJtby) and most patients know within 1 month if it's helping.

Dr Timmermans, I was recently diagnosed with partially torn biceps long head tendon and ac joint sprain in my left shoulder. I am getting a consult for PRP therapy. On my left shoulder I have two partial tears of my infraspinatus. I am going to ask for PRP therapy as well. The question I have is this. The AC joint sprain is fault new. About a month old. The biceps tendon and infraspinatus I am pretty sure are old, maybe 6months or greater. Will the bpc157 aid in the recovery with the PRP given the possible age of the injuries?

[@DrewTimmermansND]

While we tend to see better results with acute/new injuries, we still see amazing results with chronic injuries. So the age of the injury doesn't change our recommendations, especially when paired with PRP

[@biohackingresilience]

When using BCP or TB4 with PRP do you have patients wait a certain amount of time after injection before using the peptides or can they start using right away?

[@DrewTimmermansND]

It's possible that it could help with some pain and inflammation yes. We use the BPC-157 capsules from InfiniWell as they use the arginate salt. To help out, we have a 20% patient discount code on our website regenerativeperformance.com/supplements (code is RP20). Once on that website, click the InfiniWell link, and then choose the product labeled 'BPC-157'. When you hover over the product, you will see it says 'Original Formula' above the ingredient box). This is the version that does not have SNAC, which we find works better. The most common starting dose we use with patients is 500mcg, once per day on an empty stomach. The time of day doesn't really matter in our opinion. We normally have patients take BPC-157 for at least a month to determine if they see improvements, but sometimes it takes longer to see effects as tissue healing takes time. We then have patients continue on the BPC-157 for several months, and then we might trial taking them off to see if their symptoms remained improved or if they regress. If they regress, we put them back on it. If you don't see improvements after a few months, come see us in Arizona for further workup and treatment
