- | Peptide | Primary Mechanism | Recovery Target | Typical Research Dose | Time to Effect | Professional Assessment ||—|—|—|—|—|| Thymalin | Thymic epithelial cell stimulation, T-cell maturation | Immune suppression, illness frequency | 10mg every 3–5 days SC | 3–4 weeks for measurable immune markers | Only peptide that directly restores thymic output. Critical for athletes with recurrent infections during training blocks || BPC-157 | VEGF upregulation, fibroblast migration, angiogenesis | Tendon/ligament microtrauma, incomplete tissue repair | 250–500mcg daily SC (split dose) | 7–14 days for subjective pain reduction | Fastest local tissue repair. Most effective when injected near injury site rather than systemically || TB-500 | Actin polymerization, NF-κB downregulation, systemic inflammation reduction | Chronic inflammation, overuse injuries | 2–2.5mg twice weekly (loading), then 2mg weekly (maintenance) | 2–3 weeks for inflammation markers, 4–6 weeks for tissue healing | Best system
