And there's several that are FDA approved.

Growth hormone itself is also a peptide.

It's a peptide hormone, not a steroid hormone.

There's definitely a lot of risk, tumor growth and cancer.

So you look at a type one diabetic, they have very high incidences of various types of cancer.

They have very high growth hormone, but low IGF-1 paradoxically.

So they would likely give you a similar cancer risk to a type one diabetic that has very high growth hormone.

However, there are the benefits of it.

You think of lipolysis, decreased body fat, increased lean body mass.

A lot of those, you can use other things to get those benefits.

So then you don't need growth hormone for those benefits.

It just leaves cosmetic benefit.

to which you can usually use topicals to get your hair and your skin and your nails.

There's a lot of other things that you can do other than growth hormone.

So a lot of people just don't need these GHRPs.

Yeah.

So BPC-157 is body protective compound.

157, it's identical or bioidentical to gastric protective compound, 157, that's produced in the stomach.

So as you age, you get atrophic gastritis very often.

That's why you have less intrinsic factor, which is kind of another peptide that binds to vitamin B12.
