But soon, a rival peptide entered the field.

Investors told Hasi... This is not going to make money.

And ultimately, the company folded.

But since then, Motsi has taken on a life of its own.

You can buy it online, supposedly just for research purposes, and inject yourself with it.

And people are going bonkers.

Just off the back of a bunch of mouse studies, one small clinical trial, and a whole lot of hype.

And like I mentioned, now people are saying that they're losing fat and building muscle and amping up their energy on Motsi.

And Hussey says, you know, if you look at his mouse studies, maybe you could make a case for some of these claims.

I mean, after all, the mice did run longer on a treadmill.

But up against the hype.

the research cupboard is pretty bare.

After the break, we go further down the peptide rabbit hole as we dive into the science on BPC 157.

Plus, could peptides really give you cancer?

Coming up.

Welcome back.

Now let's get into one of the most popular peptides on the market, BPC-157.

This is the so-called Wolverine peptide, but people say it can help you recover from injuries fast.

So where does it come from and should you try it?

BPC-157 stands for Body Protective Compound 157.
