They also did weird things on the neurological side.

Like they would make these mice drunk.

Okay.

And they would then give them BPC and they'd get less drunk when they go through mazes.

Oh, boy.

Okay.

We did not just recommend you take BPC with alcohol.

No.

And then also they would get the mice drunk and then have them withdraw from alcohol.

And withdrawal is deadly.

If we have a patient in the hospital that withdraws, they could die during that withdrawal if they're not given benzodiazepines.

They got BPC, and they didn't have the withdrawal symptoms.

I'm like, what's going on here?

This is a very interesting compound.

I think it gets all the hype for the MSK stuff, but I think the neurological, neuropsychiatric, let's say, and then gastric effects are way more interesting when it comes to that because it's modulating the gut-brain access in an interesting way.

We'll have people come to us, and they're like, my Adderall's not working since I've been taking oral BPC.

Are they happy with that effect?

No, they're not happy.

They're very mad because it seems like it's blunting their Adderall.

So it's doing something from dopaminergic signaling on both sides, both withdrawal when it comes to like the gapinergic side, but also the peak of signaling.
