Me toooo 
Nearly a month of adding it in my skin stack, old rashes/scars are fading!
Also acne prevention during that time of the month is on point.

I like it too! It’s like Shungite but played backwards

Just read a bunch of articles on the benefits of this peptide for stomach, lung, liver and kidney health/healing plus other potential benefits but then re-read it and saw that it’s only targeted to skin and bones. Probably a reason for that but time for some personal experimentation.

Wonder what effects would come from combining this with bone strengthener.

What is blue copper peptide?
Copper-peptide (GHK-Cu) is a growth factor that promotes the proliferation of collagen in fibroblasts and accelerates wound repair. It can be regarded as an oligopeptide growth factor. GHK-Cu is composed of glycine, histidyl, lysine, copper (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine–copper), and a complex of copper ions Cu2+, also called tripeptide copper, which can Through the carrier combination of the amino acid complex (peptide) (Glycyl-Histidyl-Lysine), the divalent copper ion component with biochemical effects enters the cells and exerts physiological functions (GHK+Cu–>GHK-Cu as shown below) ), copper is a trace element required to maintain body functions.
What is the difference between blue copper peptide and copper?
Blue copper peptide is self-produced in the body (in blood and saliva). It can effectively promote the production of collagen and elastin, tighten the skin and reduce fine lines, increase blood vessel growth and assist the antioxidant enzyme SOD. , has strong anti-free radical ability, and stimulates the production of glucose polyamines (GAGs), helping the skin to restore its self-repair ability, and enhance the skin’s ability to absorb the active ingredients of skin care products, which can activate and synergize collagen and other skin care effects. , has the effect of relaxing muscles and improving dynamic wrinkles. Although there are copper-containing skin care products on the market, blue copper peptides are more stable and will not easily oxidize with air.
What is the recent development of blue copper peptide in skin care?
In recent years, blue copper peptide has been targeted at the skin. It can effectively promote the production of collagen and elastin through copper ions in the body, increase blood vessel growth and antioxidant capacity, and stimulate the production of glycopolyamine, so it can help the skin restore its ability to repair itself. When the human body suffers external injury (such as a cut), the copper ions (copper-bonded amino acids) in the blood will turn into copper tripeptide together with the tripeptide in the tissue, and then stimulate the differentiation of stem cells and the proliferation of fibroblasts. Cells repair damaged tissue and are important factors in helping injured tissues fight inflammation in the human body. They also play an important role in stimulating the production of normal proteins to replace damaged proteins. This has the same effect as so-called growth factors.
Is blue copper peptide something in the body?
right! At the age of 20, human plasma contains about 200 ng/ml GHK and GHK-Cu. At the age of 60, it will drop to about 80ng/ml, but it will change due to the external environment, and only about 10% in the body. The circulating GHK will be combined into GHK-Cu (as shown in the picture), so this is the reason why the wound healing ability becomes worse with age.
What is the relationship between blue copper peptide and collagen?
When used in skin care products, blue copper peptides can effectively synergize with skin collagen, smooth fine lines, make skin firm, elastic and shiny, and slow down aging. Blue copper peptide further enhances the skin repair effect and is regarded as a new generation of anti-wrinkle growth factor. Because blue copper peptide (GHK-Cu) originally exists in the body, it is a safe, mild product with no side effects.
What are the effects of blue copper peptide?
Considered a growth factor to accelerate wound repair.
It can stimulate epidermal tissue and delay skin aging.
Improves firmness, removes wrinkles, and stimulates collagen and elastin to repair skin.
Increase the regeneration of skin epithelial tissue, reduce the thickness of wrinkles, reduce scars, improve skin elasticity, increase the proliferation of keratinocytes and fibroblasts, and also thicken subcutaneous tissue.
Accelerate skin metabolism and effectively resist oxidation.
Stimulates hair growth and reduces hair loss, improves hair follicle size, and helps hair melanin production.
Accelerates skin metabolism and has a large number of anti-inflammatory effects (reduces the release of inflammatory response factors such as iron oxide in fibroblasts)
Healing and repair of gastric ulcers, preventing oxidative damage to tissues.
