For optimal stability and integrity, we recommend reconstituting all peptides with bacteriostatic water, as reliability cannot be guaranteed with alternative solutions.
Description
Copper peptide (GHK-Cu) is a small, naturally occurring protein complex of three amino acids bonded with copper ions. It is found in plasma, saliva, and urine and has been studied for its potential role in various biological processes.
Lyophilized peptide powders above 50mg may require more than the regular amount of bacteriostatic water for complete dissolution. Insufficient bacteriostatic water volume may lead to some powder remaining undissolved.
How does copper peptide work?
Copper peptides might function by binding to copper ions, facilitating their transport and use in the body. This interaction could activate multiple pathways involved in tissue repair, inflammation reduction, and cellular communication.
Copper peptides may also produce collagen and elastin, important proteins for skin health.

What are the potential benefits of Copper Peptide?
Research suggests that copper peptide may offer several potential benefits:
- Wound Healing: Copper peptide might promote faster wound healing by new tissue formation.
- Anti-inflammatory Effects: It may reduce inflammation, which is linked to many chronic conditions.
- Antioxidant Properties: Copper peptides may be antioxidant and protect cells from oxidative damage.
Copper Peptide and Skin Health
Copper peptides may improve skin health. It may increase skin elasticity, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and improve skin texture. Producing collagen copper peptide may give you youthful and resilient skin.
Copper Peptide and Haircare
Research shows copper peptide may be good for hair care. It may promote hair growth, reduce hair thinning, and improve hair thickness by increasing blood flow to the scalp and stimulating hair follicles.
Copper Peptide and Muscle Growth
Copper peptide may also be used for muscle growth and repair. Its role in tissue regeneration may support muscle recovery after exercise, improve athletic performance, and reduce recovery time.
Clinical Research
Research on copper peptides is ongoing. Early studies on copper peptides show promise in dermatology and hair care. However, more clinical trials are needed to understand its long-term safety and effectiveness.
FAQs
