GHK Basic. Who has it?

[HereKittyKitty]

I think you should blend it. AMAZING. For me and a client. Lots of naysayers here but if you search elsewhere, there are a buttload of people doing it blended and loving it.

Blend Cu and Basic?

 

[Dos-Dox]

I think you should blend it.

I agree blending with GHK-Cu might be a good option to still get some use out of it while also getting the Cu back into the schedule. I currently blend 3:1 (Cu:basic).

Need to do something with the Basic and return to the Cu.

Just for some data points, singles sell for $10 each (seemingly whether it’s 50 mg or 100 mg). My own personal risk tolerance doesn’t allow me to sell anything grey to anyone. (I won’t even order for someone else while I’m ordering because I don’t ever want to have been in the position to have accepted money in exchange for peptides.) But everyone own legal risk tolerance is different.

Thank you!

3:1....what is your daily dose, if I can ask.

I'm intrigued to mix them. I was thinking 1:1 just because the daily pin is so small, a combined vial would last 3+ months.

Blend Cu and Basic?

Yes. Highly recommended by Others. I am experimenting with 1:1 and it works well. I have read where others were having luck at 4:1.

I will give it a go. What have I got to lose? Time to recon and filter. Back in a bit.

My personal experiment is running 2mg in the morning and 2mg at night.

Yep! Here’s a link to a thread in Peppy’s I read awhile back. I have seen where some people had good experiences with 5:1, but I did 3:1 mainly because I have a 100 mg GHK-basic vial (so I wanted to use a little more rather than have extra sitting around for a long time) and 3:1 made my recon math nice and easy. With this blend, I’m dosing with 1.5 mg GHK-Cu, 0.5 mg GHK-basic, and 0.5 mg BPC-157. I’m taking a break from my second true pep love (KPV) for a cycle.

 

[HereKittyKitty]

@AlexSilver & @Dos-Dox you're wonderful. I was so disappointed and now I have solutions!!!

While I wait for this to thaw, I'm going to Peppys!

Yeah, yeah, me too, I might be slightly addicted to KPV. Gosh, but it's a wonder. I haven't had any KPV for 2 weeks because I didn't want to open another 30mg vial I while was doing other experiments but I miss it. I think I'll go ahead and do it. I could pin at lunch.

 

[Rickcaps]

I have pinned 3 vials, 1 GLOW, 1 GHK-CU, and 1 KLOW and I don't get a sting. Just a painful dull ache later. Jealous of no reaction tho.

I love KPV. So much that I added a 30mg vial of KPV to my 50mg GHK-cu only vial. For every 2mg of copper, that's 1.2mg of KPV. But same result.

KPV does indeed help. And so does BPC. I don't know why the original creator included TB500 in there. Some where I read that the combo BPC/TB500 in the GHK-CU has a half life of about 6 hours. I understood that BPC only has a half-life of 30 minutes. Could the combo change the half-life like that?

And for me, it is after about 5 hours that the dull ache at the injection site starts. Adding lidocaine doesn't change anything. Probably because lidocaine also wears off after about 4 or 5 hours...

But the Glycine was a game changer and mostly killed the dull ache. Shocking. I started taking it to remove the urgency to go at night.

What benefits do you see from kpv and bpc?

I mean if one is healthy do they need kpv or bpc at all?

 

[Rickcaps]

No. GHK basic is white (copper free) lyophilized powder to be reconned for injection. It doesn't sting like the GHK-Cu for injection.

The raw GHK-Cu powder is sold in tubes usually and has copper, is relatively loose, and is for topical use, like by mixing into a moisturizer.

I got ghk.cu and ahk cu. Both are in vials and looks dark blue. How do I find out whether its safe to pin?

Typically AHK-Cu is mixed with something like a hyaluronic acid to make a hair serum. I wouldn’t personally inject it.

KPV was originally desighned for gut health. It is also a major anti-inflammatory and it turns off several signals that cause inflammation. It also has assorted side effects like it will wipe out a candida infection. Over time it will also heal a few skin problems, for example excema.

Not enough experience with BPC.

I can't tell you if you need anything. You have to decide that for yourself.

 

[Rickcaps]

I've been on klow, hardly know what all is getting effected. Maybe a break will enlighten me with the benefits.

 

[Dos-Dox]

What benefits do you see from kpv and bpc?

I love KPV for diminishing all the aches and pains. My hips and shoulders don’t hurt or pop when I’m taking it. And it’s great for just general inflammation. I haven’t really ever noticed any mind-blowing effects from BPC, but I bought a lot on one of my first grey purchases, so I’m adding it in when I’m taking a break from KPV.

Both are supposed to be good for gut healing and musculoskeletal issues.

Such a pretty graphic. Wish I had one for KPV.

Back to GHK-basic...

Signaling Molecule for Tissue Repair : GHK Basic acts as an endogenous signal released during tissue injury, triggering processes like fibroblast migration and gene expression changes related to repair and regeneration. It is found in human plasma, saliva, and urine, with levels declining from ~200 ng/mL at age 20 to ~80 ng/mL at age 60.

Potent Antioxidant Activity : GHK Basic is a powerful scavenger of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cytotoxic byproducts of lipid peroxidation (e.g., acrolein and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal). At 10µM, it can reduce ROS levels by nearly 50% in cells. Its ability to quench hydroxyl radicals is stronger than that of glutathione (GSH), a major cellular antioxidant.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects : In cellular models, GHK Basic reduces the expression of key pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6. It modulates inflammatory pathways, including NF-κB and p38 MAPK signaling, which are central regulators of the body's inflammatory response.

Copper Homeostasis and Gene Regulation : While GHK Basic itself is copper-free, its primary biological function is intrinsically linked to copper. Its histidine residue has a high affinity for copper (II) ions, allowing it to act as a natural copper carrier. It modulates the expression of over 4,000 human genes, influencing pathways involved in tissue remodeling, oxidative stress response, and inflammation. Its gene-regulating effects are often studied in comparison to its copper-bound form.

Those sound like cosmetic, not injectable.
