Description
GHK-Cu, or Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine-Copper(II), is a naturally occurring copper peptide complex known for its strong affinity to bind copper ions. It plays a significant role in biological repair processes and has been extensively studied for its regenerative, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties.
Research has shown that GHK-Cu can stimulate the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans—key components in extracellular matrix remodeling. It also influences the expression of multiple genes involved in tissue regeneration, angiogenesis, and cellular defense mechanisms. In wound healing studies, GHK-Cu has demonstrated the ability to accelerate epithelialization and reduce scarring. Additionally, it has been explored for its neuroprotective and anti-aging effects due to its regulatory impact on gene expression related to tissue repair and oxidative stress. The 2 mg oral format provides a standardized dosage suitable for experimental protocols in dermatological, orthopedic, and systemic regeneration studies.
I decided to try GHK-Cu after reading many positive reviews and studies about its benefits, particularly in skin care and tissue regeneration. I used it for several weeks and noticed some truly impressive changes. My skin became noticeably smoother and more even, and the fine lines and redness significantly reduced.
