Should You Be Taking Peptides?

- Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, serving as essential components for various biological functions. They are smaller than proteins, making them crucial for numerous physiological processes, including signaling, immune responses, and cell signaling.
BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide that consists of 15 amino acids. It is a partial sequence of body protection compound (BPC) that can be found in human gastric juice. BPC-157 is known for its remarkable healing properties, including the ability to accelerate the healing of many different wounds and injuries. It has been extensively studied for its efficacy in healing tendons, muscles, nervous system injuries, and even the gastrointestinal tract, with a strong safety profile in research settings.
Ipamorelin and CJC-1295 are growth hormone-releasing peptides (GHRPs) that stimulate the pituitary gland to release growth hormone (GH). They are often used together to synergistically increase GH levels in the body, which can lead to benefits such as improved muscle growth, fat loss, and recovery times. Ipamorelin is known for its specificity, targeting only GH release without affecting other hormones, while CJC-1295 is a long-acting GHRH (growth hormone-releasing hormone) analog that enhances GH release duration.
Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. It mimics the action of GLP-1, a hormone involved in appetite regulation and insulin secretion. By activating GLP-1 receptors, semaglutide increases insulin release in response to high blood sugar levels, decreases glucagon secretion, and promotes satiety, leading to reduced calorie intake and weight loss. Semaglutide has shown significant efficacy in improving glycemic control and reducing body weight, making it a valuable tool in managing type 2 diabetes and obesity.
Each of these peptides demonstrates the diverse therapeutic potential of peptide-based treatments, highlighting their importance in current and future medical research and applications.

P.p.s if you’re really annoyed I tried peptides in a bid to help educate you guys. Go suck off ya nan. This is an education channel not a popularity contest.
No Problem at all with that, However, I do think you should leave a disclaimer that BPC-157 is not approved by most major health regulators and has not been through any proper trials yet. Its safety and efficacy profiles come from rats and the only major human trial failed to show efficacy. They are also on the WADA and IOC banned lists so the recommendation to athletes needs a disclaimer imo. All in all, im all for education just think theres additional value in providing that context could help others understand the reasons some of these are not common
Can you try Tesamorelin ?
@@batandy23I did in the opening sentence. 😅
Where can we find these online doctors to prescribe us ?
Definitely amazing, bpc157 helped with long covid and fixed a shoulder injury I had for years
Worth noting that they are on the wada list and sidenote for any natural competitor: in most organisations, you're not allowed to compete when you've taken any in the last decade.
P.s when I said pro athletes I meant BJJ (thus saying return to mats) they don’t get tested for bpc et al. In most competitions.
Hi James, i am a 38yo farmer and usually sore after 2-3 hard working days out on the field.
i am not good with needles, i have to admit that, is there any of this peptides supplement that comes in powdered form?
and can i get it in Australia?
i dont have upper body soreness, but my thighs and calves are after few days of long working hours.
Thanks from Queensland. 😊
am not a body builder or powerlifter, just an average joe.
I was married to a water quality specialist for 14 years and worked as an Engineer in healthcare. Measuring TDS in water is no indication if the water is healthy or not. In all major Australian cities the water is completely safe to drink and filtering it can actually remove minerals that are beneficial. TDS = Total Dissolved Solids. It gives no indication of what those solids are. TDS is useful for maintenance of certain equipment like autoclaves and other devices that heat/treat water as it can shorten their lifespan or degrade performance. If you are using a water filter for taste you can get an under-the-sink kit that you can easily fit yourself from Bunnings for under $150.
Yep. I have an RO system to filter water to use in a high end coffee machine and you need to be a little careful about remineralising it to some extent or the lack of minerals actually damages metals. Doesn't do the body any good either. As you say, you need minerals. My RO machine puts the water at about 20 TDS and our tap water is something like 260 TDS. I drink the tap water. TDS doesn't equal quality of water, just the mineral content and minerals are generally good for you.
Amazing thanks
Wholesome exchange. Nice
Yeah, we measure TDS in our fishing lakes but it's only relevant if you can use other data to work out what those solids are. If the pH is high you can be reasonably sure those solids are your alkaline metals such as calcium which is generally beneficial so a relatively high TDS would be good, if however that same TDS quantity was based on the amount of dissolved lead or arsenic then it's very, very bad.
This would be a very interesting video topic@@JamesSmithPT
BPC-157 is fantastic - helped me and numerous others recovery from injuries.
May I please ask your dose and time period you used it for?
I have a ruptured Achilles tendon I too would like to know dosage if possible 🙏🏽. I’m looking at 12 weeks recovery
@@BrandonAPG I used 500 micrograms daily for 2 weeks. And then 500 micrograms Monday-Friday for another 2 weeks.
@@BrandonAPGI used 500 micrograms daily for 2 weeks; and then 500 micrograms Monday-Friday for an additional 2 weeks.
@@ivanjover9120 I am not a doctor and would recommend seeing a professional. I can only tell you what I did when I was injured: which was using BPC-157 at 500 micrograms (mcgs) for 2 weeks daily. After those 2 weeks, another 2 weeks using 500mcgs Monday-Friday.
2016 (I was 27 years old) I had tendinitis in my right elbow, pain was coming from the brachioradialis predominately. I was working with a PT here in Canada. I did a lot of strength and hypertrophy exercises around 5 days a week. Now, I did not have it as bad as yours it seems (that sounded gnarly!) but after 4 weeks working with the PT I had basically no improvement. I started with BPC-157 twice a day injected subq into the forearm itself. After another 4 weeks I was back to 100%. Much like you've said, there was no control..it's totally anecdotal but to me it seemed to work. ymmv of course but that's my .02 running the peptide personally. Thanks for the video!
I also had tenacious D in my right elbow.
How much did you inject and can you do it in the belly fat or should it be done where the injury is located?
Bro is one step away from jumping back on Steroids/Sarms
was he ever on them? i cant tell by physique so probably not?
@@AntisnakeYT he said he was on but came off, hes on nothing but Peptides rn
ah thanks@@JSK_03
You can see his old photos in other videos.
Besides, I also went completely off after 6 years and I can tell you from my own experience that when you stop, you look worse than before because your natural production is damaged.
@@UA-camChillZone it's been proven that it is extremely likely your natural production of testosterone returns to what it was pre-steroids.
One of the only guy's I'll listen to on youtube.
Not really related to this video in particular, but a week ago i came across your videos after a bit of a big weekend drinking, motivated me a lot on a Monday morning at work, already lost 2Kg in a week by trying to implement healthier eating and more exercise. Thanks
Above all the honesty why I respect this channel
thanks for the water filter recommendation.
Bpc 157 helped me greatly with no noticeable side effects.
Done all of these James all really good and worth a shot ❤
Great video!
I can only imagine how much all that cost 🤯 great educational video man 🤙🏻
Like your videos brother. Got a new subscriber.
Super informative 🧠
I took 20mg mk-677 for 3 months. I also did an intermediate fastiny during and went from 100kg to 92kg at 196cm. It really helped my sleep quality and the water retention made everything look more defined, could be a placebo but i felt the healthiest i ever been. Im now 3 weeks off mk-677 and honestly sofar my joints feel a little bit more sore after working out but other then that i feel fine.
Bpc 175 and tb 500 worked brilliantly for my knee and back issues. Highly recommend them.
Bpc 175, 60 capsule cost 80e in Europe, in states is same?
Did u take it by injecting or oral?
Which company did you buy from?
Great video mate, clear and concise. I'm an old bastard and my body is falling apart now so at least I have options if I choose to do this.
Still not sold on it yet though.
I've used bpc157 and tb500 both worked great for healing and training
How much did they cost per month?
@@babyreps365google it you lazy sod
Did u take it by injecting or oral?
Full bicep rupture… was taking months of what felt like no progress and lots of pain. Started a stack of BPC/TB and everything accelerated… pain went away almost instantly, and recovery felt way quicker. Stopped going to the physio almost immediately as I got a full ROM almost immediately.
Now caveat… I have only had a full distal bicep rupture once in my life, and so I hardly have a comparison point.
For something that I only use for a severe injury, it’s worth the $120ish.
Downside… bpc literally forces blood flow and nutrients throughout your body. So if you HAVE a cancer it will feed it just like it would an injury. This is why I don’t just include it in my routine.
Bpc didn't work for me either , I think its mostly for pulled muscle or something like that , also problem is everybody here will buy it from a random dodgy website and you basically don't know what you are injecting it's not the same stuff as Joe rogan is getting
Yup you dyscribet biggest issiue whit it and any peptides to be honest.
If you have a genuine use case for it, which is the only people who should be using it, then there are clinics who can prescribe it at least in the USA.
Obviously going to be 10x more expensive but you can be sure it’s actually pharmaceutical grade.
Marekhealth is one of the them, co-created by moreplatesmoredates. I get my bloodwork labs ordered from them.
get it tested. why would you jjust inject random sstuff from random websites? things like test is easy to check, even gh by a 30min bloodtest after injection, these youre just hoping youre not scammed
Can take time, bpc-157 will only accelerate what can heal itself in the main. I’ve been working with BPC for 10 years.
@deanhenry6582 u was on it for 4 months my tendinitis came back as soon as I got off it , ice pack worked better
Been asking and waiting for this one! Definitely need to get some ordered. I have tendinitis in my shoulder and hoping I can sort it. There is a lot of discussions about injecting into the body anywhere or at the source of the problem. I can’t find much online to what is actually best or if any
Good quality material.
@JamesSmithPT. Hey James great channel, great videos! Where can peptides be sourced in the uk? Too many scam sites that cant be trusted. Im riddled with injuries and nothing has helped. Thanks
Thanks for the video JamesSmithPT. I didn't know about bpc 157 peptide. So thank you for the information. Where can you get bpc 157 peptide. If I Google it I might go to the wrong site. Were is the safety place to buy it.
👍
Would love to see how to dose and mix this. I’m keen to try it
Thank you for transparancy
Good balanced appraisal as usual.
I'm 52 and they really help big time.
time to get my mom a bpc157 for her lower back pain
bpc 157 has helped me with shoulder and elbow issues but then again, quality control varies a ton between sites so maybe I got lucky and actually got the real deal
BPC-157 & TB-500 helped me recover from a torn labrum in just under 3 months recently
What dose were you using please? I have a ruptured Achilles tendon and need it fixing asap!!
I take 10mg of Ostarine daily along with TRT and it's amazing. I have also ran BPC157 and TB500 when I herniated a disc in my neck. Hospital recommended surgery but I opted for peptides. Within 4 week neck pain was completely gone and the tennis elbow I was struggling with disappeared also. Dr's wanted to prescribe me oxy until surgery. I chose peptides and surgery has been cancelled. They definitely worked for me, just need to be careful where you buy them from. Biov8 are my go to.
Having a similar problem(not as severe). Did you do any physical therapy in conjunction with BPC157
where?
I took Osterine too and anecdotally it along with MK677 helped a shoulder injury that just wasn’t healing before.
I hope you're cycling the osta and not taking it in perpetuity.
Have you had anything to do with the tablet version of BPC157?
Thanks for sharing this. It’s exactly what I needed to hear as I’ve recently injured my knee. I will definitely research further BPC 157
Try bcp157 and tb500 together, definitely works
It’s brilliant.. I used that with TB 500. Sorted my knee out 100%
@@AllyStewart_fitcoach Appreciated !
I'd be curious to see you do something with ahwaganda and shilajit. It would be interesting to see your take on it, I know it's been gaining traction lately.
Good stuff
Dear James, Thank you again for the information about these peptides.. I am obese and i am always hungry in the evening.. I didnt hear all (i am partial deaf) but i understood you use one in the evening which prevented you from snacking? and a other which helped you loss weight.. Do you know where to get these also? thank you from a grateful subscriber
great vid
The having to stop eating before bed helped break my bad habit of eating literally 2 minutes before i went to sleep
🎉❤congrats on the baby❤🎉
I can’t believe that I took BPC-157 two days ago. I’m 47 years old and my knees and elbows were bothering me. I can’t believe in two days the pain was gone. I also have Been having trouble taking a shit. Once every 2 -3 days. Already going 2-3 xs a day. This is day 3. I’m no Dr or salesman. This stuff is amazing. It also resets the opiate receptors.
Any chance you could do a video on muscle strengthening when you come back from long term injury?
I tore my achillies heel and a lot of the tendons in my foot to the point where it was dangling off me. Took me about four years to properly heal it, another year to walk comfortably and I am scared to do weights because the foot muscles feel so stiff. I had a physio for a while who gave me some exercises to stretch my calf and thigh muscles as they had slackened over time but I would love to know a good routine of things I can do from home without the use of the gym. I do try to walk as much as I can because I gained a substantial amount of weight during my injury but what I really need is to gain back the mobility and flexibility in my legs. So I can start cycling and jogging again. If I was to try jogging now I have no spring in the foot so I wouldn't be able to flex the foot properly as it feels ultra stiff. And even just running for a split second across a road perhaps feels like the muscle will buckle.
I was wondering if you can give some pointers on how to build up strength and flexibility and mobility in your feet and legs?
hey James, can you please give your 2 cents on Lee Weiland and Powerbatics? Just curious to see your take, thanks!
Hi James 2 questions,
1. You said there are clinics that you can work with and they can prescribe these to you, but in the UK when you google it you only find TRT and HGH replacement clinics only offering synthetic replacements of those hormones with no mention of any peptide treatment.
Since you have confirmed that your not condoning there use and there not illegal, could you share some information about the type of clinics you mention, I think it's important as there are alot of websites selling peptides for quote research purposes, many of those websites look questionable so if people were to consider this, for the sake of their health and safety under the advice of a reputable clinic , could you kindly advise the clinics you were referring to?
2.Did you consider trying Sermorelin, and if not why?
Thanks
After checking, It seems no clinics quote 'prescribe' this in the uk to anyone, as its for medical research purposes in labs, and not prescribed to anyone for recreational purposes. So telling people you can have it prescribed is very misleading . Shame as James 'seems' like a stand up guy, so if its an educational video I'm surprised that he wouldn't be transparent and just say which clinic and how much he paid so people actually have the real information
He’s in Australia where they can be prescribed.
@@xiivii6140 hi! I'm based in UK also. For 8weeks also I'm struggling with a shoulder injury even though I'm staying away from activities that are putting pressure on i,that's not going away. I consider myself having quite a healthy life style, active , decent food, not much alcohol, no drugs, 6-7h sleep. ATM I'm taking collagen but still no changes , pain is exactly like 8week ago. I wonder if you find a reliable source for BPC 157.
Regards,
Victor
I love your posts, whatever people say, these peptides really work, and sometimes not short of a miracle! When you opened the cupboard and brought all those peptides out, I literally exploded out laughing, this is happening on a majority of gym and exercise guys all over the world, a cupboard full of fascinating peptides and insulin syringes. I would also suggest you try PT 141, take a day off to experiment and report back…😂😂ROFL. We know these peptides really work well in the short term, what we don’t know is what they do to our bodies in the long term.
Where can we buy a good quality peptides or these products please
I did BPC 157 for 5 months, did not feel anything. I then stopped cold turkey, again, did not feel a thing.
What type of injury were you trying to fix?
Great content once again
Hi james I'm buying ghrp6 cjc 1295 mix this week have you had experience with these will they help with building muscle and recovery?? Please respond as I dont want to waste the money if not thx
Right after I ordered some bpc 157
Haha, same here
"Really!? Right in front of my BPC-157!"
Which website did you get the peptides from?
Had a herniated disc in my lower back that just wrecked all my muscles in the area. Was so tight and in so much pain, bpc helped a lot
did you put it into your stomach or straight into your back?
@@MFEQ87 both. Doing it in my back was too difficult and hurt like a bitch, so I switched to my belly fat, It didn’t seem to matter
While I'm all for peptides for the positive health benefits, I wouldn't suggest a professional athlete taking them (even though I think they definitely should look at recovery peptides for physical longevity), especially considering that a lot of them are banned by WADA, and by extension Sport Integrity Australia (ASADA).
If their sporting organisation is subject to WADA/SIA regulations, it could mean that they end up getting banned from their sport for using one or more that's on the banned list.
Just something to consider for next time James.
Probably meant more BJJ. That’s why I said mats. Not tested for this in pro bjj.
@@JamesSmithPT I get you. I used to competed in untested powerlifting. Just hope that someone else who watches your video does their due diligence and makes sure that they're not breaking the rules of their specific organisation if they do decide to go down the peptide route.
My roommate has that exact water filter. Turns out the 5 stage filter like that is why his stomach hurt. it leaves no minerals in the water.
It works but side affects vary from person to person. I felt terrible fatigue and ended up with depression tbh I still haven’t shook the depression fully
James if you could reply to this that would be great. I live in the uk and am an high level rock climber. I heard BPC-157 might help with tendon (A2) pulley recovery. Only thing is I can find it on dodgy websites online and no good protocol. How do you go about taking this stuff?
I did my knee at bjj in February this year, still no better.
I also have an ongoing back pain and tendinitis in my elbow also (isnt bjj and judo fun?)
Im interested in bpc 157
James id be interested in your thoughts of this as SC (subcutaneous) vs PO (oral) intake ?
i understand what you're saying James....I've taken a few of these. (IPA/ CJC & Tesamorelin) Ive noticed some solid muscle gains and considerable fat loss. But because I'd spent a small fortune on these, i made sure my diet was on point, my weight training was to failure and my steps were 15-20K/day....but i do wonder if I'd achieved the gains without the expense....
could you expand on why you wouldn't go back onto CJC-1295/ ipamorelin?
Also, a video on peptides and if they could pose any danger in the long run, and finally, as an alternative to taking straight up steroids is appreciated. (and also the DAC variant)
Cjc-1295 (DAC) 'bleeds' the HGH as it has a long half life, this isn't good for your pituitary gland long term although short term you'll get good return. MOD GRF 1-29 (also known as Cjc-1295 no dac) gives a spike in release which mimics your bodies natural release. Paired with Ipamorelin its a good combination with minimal side effects if following the regular cycle periods, 5 days on 2 days off for 3 months on 1 month off. It does need more studies though to establish a full pros/cons list that other long standing drugs have. I'd personally stay away from Cjc-1295 and GHRP-6 as well as a few others.
Nice balanced summary, thanks.
I got a stainless steel charcoal water filter, as there are agricultural pesticides/fertilisers in the water in my area. (check your local water company - and don’t believe their ‘safe limits’!
Maybe I’m paranoid, but the water tastes a heluva lot better and I feel better.
Tbh last half year i am thinking about taking Ostatrine for my chronic back/knee/elbow pain and to boost some strenght and muscle mass(i am training off and on for 10 years)- and honestly i have very little to no Progress at all at this point yearly.
What do You think?
Those Zero Water filters are actually great, and really cheap for how well they work. Hopefully they're not painfully expensive in Aus.
where's the best and safest place to buy BPC-157 in the UK I have a damaged rota cuff and is the tablet version as good as the injections
Second this. Same issue and same question.
UK-peptides
Considering they’ve clamped down on access to peptides here in US, how are you purchasing these?
I took bpc157 and TB500 (wolverine stack) for long-covid, 10ml a day for 6 weeks and it really helped
10ml? Please explain as it comes in MG not ML
Can you do a video on Thyroids? I've heard this a lot and can't put my finger on it. I personally have Hypothyroidism and it's such a ball ache to lose weight
Got a link? Where can I buy?
I took cjc/ipomorelin for about 5 months or so before cycling off. I felt awful for months but didn’t even realize it. My energy was low, and had brain fog.
I started again after 3 or so months off and BOOM… felt amazing within a week again, better sleep, energy, recovery. It works even better after about 3 months of use.
Caveat. I am 42 now, so obviously my HGH levels will be significantly lower than that of a someone on their 20s and early 30s, and so the difference will be considerably more dramatic.
Fully recommend.
Hey James, as someone who also lives in Aus, I'm keen to know what made you buy the water filter? Thanks :)
Tap water here is 052. In the uk it was 350. So its way better here (for me) but super situational.
@@JamesSmithPT Got it, cheers!

Have you got any experience or knowledge of GHRP 2?
I'm 45 and wanting to boost muscle growth and drop body fat. I train weights and HIIT and am on a low/ultra low carb/IF diet
Where did you get them?
In the UK I have found it pretty difficult to get quality versions of any peptides especially the BPC157 whicb I believe will help.with a long term back injury.

I would love to try something like this and I have been toying with the idea for years. I just can't find a reliable place to get any of this kind of stuff.. How do people get this kind of stuff so easily apart from ordering it from overseas or something. If you do get it, how do you know if its even real. I just don't get it and maybe I never will.
What are the other names and uses of the peptides talked about in this video? I only heard bpc157, and semaglutide maybe... the rest he says too fast...
How do sceen for reputable sources of peptides. The ones I've come across seem a bit shady.
I've been struggling with a Whip lash injury for over a year now, its really impacting my quality of life and getting me down.
I do physio treatment and Pilates as recommended by the physio to treat it and it got 80% better fairly quickly, but this last 20% is taking forever and I can't see the end in sight to being pain free and fully mobile. Will do some googling to see if BPC-157 can help, but has anyone got any anecdotal evidence of it helping for whiplash injuries?
Would these benefit nerve damage after a slipped disc? Im still getting cramps and weakness 3 years on, pretty sure im smaller on one side, my dominent side!
I'm already on TRT. Would these peptides do anything when it comes to muscle gain when already on TRT?
Bpc157 and tb500 are amazing for recovery/anti inflammatory.
Healed my interior minicus tear, and shoulder tear to a point where daily training and work did not hurt. Leg gains finally came back and able to push weight again.
Squat went from 185 for 6 to 255 for 6 in less than 6 months. My biggest issue was knee pain after leg day for 2 days. Now no pain - even being off bpc for 6 months.
Just ordered bpc/tb500 again for shoulder pain and enchanting my daily life.
Where from? Ive had a dodgy achilles on and off for years. Rehab never fixes it, nor the physio. Looked into these peptides but didnt trust the websites tbh. Could be anything in the vials...
same question, where do you order these from?
@@wesleychapman9001 I get mine out of a TRT clinic from GA. (I’m in Wisconsin) blood labs are taken once a year. Doctor prescribed peptides that are FDA approved. Not Chinese/research peptides that aren’t approved to take.

I've been looking for a water filter. What's the one you've got?
I recently developed an injury that makes it difficult and painful for me to walk. I'm wondering if BPC-157 can help.
Where did you get these from a good source ?
I wonder if James's nemesis the squeaky clean Joe Wicks will start looking into peptides now 😂.
where to source BPC157 in Sydney?
I see you shop at Bulk Nutrients online store
But why would you want to increase your gh and igf1 levels. Isnt there a possible risk that is gonna reduce your lifespan?
No plastic water bottle...after filtering and storing the water in plastic?
It's better than plastic to plastic
...what if you're a 39 year old that's fit and active but has Ankolysing Spondylitis and is sick of being stiff and sore muscles while taking remicade?
Bpc-157 and tb-500 fixed my injured thumb from boxing i had a nagging thumb that i broke hurt mutlipe times boxing and damaged the tendons badly for 7 months i had the same pain ran 4 week cycle my thumb is 100% i did subq in my thumb Bpc-157 and tb-500 in my stomach definitely works
What were your doses and time period used for?
250mcg of each sometimes I would dose the bpc higher in the site ot injury
Apparently some peptides in the US are now schedule 2.
James, please get a glass water filter (like Aarke) and bin this plastic one. Filtering water into a plastic container defeats the purpose!
How do you find the doctors when you tell them about them. I'm from England as well and when I told my doctors I was taking testosterone they didn't help at all just told me to not do it that was about it really.
Any recommendations for a trusted provider in Australia?
Does anyone knows the water filter model ?
James is there any other way to take them?
