Wolverine Blend (BPC-157 + TB-500)
Overview
The Wolverine Blend combines BPC-157 and TB-500, two of the most researched peptides for supporting recovery, inflammation control, and tissue repair. Together, they’re often studied for promoting faster healing, improving joint function, and helping the body recover from training or injury stress — hence the nickname “Wolverine.”
How It Works
• BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound) is a peptide fragment derived from stomach proteins. It’s being studied for its potential to promote angiogenesis, tendon and gut repair, and overall anti-inflammatory signaling.
• TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4 fragment) supports cellular regeneration and blood vessel growth, which may accelerate recovery at the tissue level.
• When combined, they may amplify repair signaling pathways and improve healing outcomes in connective tissue, muscle, and fascia.
Potential Benefits (Research-Based)
• Support recovery of soft tissues (tendons, ligaments, muscles)
• May reduce inflammation and oxidative stress
• Enhance collagen synthesis and cellular healing
• Support joint comfort and mobility
• Promote gut-lining stability (BPC-157)
• Aid recovery after overtraining, strain, or surgery
Reported / Potential Side Effects
Research and anecdotal reports suggest few side effects, though some users have reported:
• Mild irritation at the injection site
• Temporary fatigue or light headache
• Rare localized redness or histamine response

Typical Dosing Examples (Educational)
Note: For education only. Not medical advice.
General repair / recovery: 250 – 750 mcg per day (subcutaneous)
Injury-specific / focused healing: 1 – 2 mg per day (subcutaneous), divided into 1-2 doses
Cycle length examples:
• Short-term recovery: 4 – 6 weeks
• Chronic injury / ongoing maintenance: 8 – 12 weeks (then reassess)
• Some transition to every-other-day dosing after significant improvement
Because each situation varies, always discuss with a licensed provider before use or cycling any peptide.
Pairings / Synergy
• Tesamorelin or CJC/Ipamorelin → for growth-hormone support and muscle restoration
• Retatrutide or Tirzepitide (GLP-1/GIP blends) → may complement inflammation control and metabolic repair during recovery phases
• AOD-9604 or MOTS-c → for mitochondrial and cellular energy support
