Follistatin vs BPC-157 & TB-500 & GHK-Cu (Triple Healing Stack)
A detailed comparison to help you understand the differences and choose the right peptide for your research goals.
Follistatin
Follistatin is a glycoprotein that inhibits myostatin, the protein responsible for limiting muscle growth. By blocking myostatin, follistatin can theoretically allow for increased muscle development beyond natural limits.

| Aspect | Follistatin | BPC-157 & TB-500 & GHK-Cu (Triple Healing Stack) |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | Binds to and neutralizes myostatin and activin, both of which are negative regulators of muscle mass. This removes the natural brake on muscle growth, allowing for enhanced hypertrophy. | BPC-157 promotes angiogenesis and growth factor expression. TB-500 enhances cell migration and reduces inflammation. GHK-Cu activates genes involved in tissue remodeling, stimulates collagen and elastin production, and provides antioxidant protection. Together they support healing from multiple angles. |
| Typical Dosage | Research protocols typically use 100-300mcg daily, though optimal dosing is not well established. Gene therapy approaches have also been studied. | Typical protocol: BPC-157 250-500mcg daily, TB-500 2-2.5mg twice weekly, GHK-Cu 1-2mg daily or applied topically for skin applications. |
| Administration | Subcutaneous injection. Different isoforms exist (FS344, FS315) with varying properties. Requires careful sourcing due to complexity. | BPC-157 and TB-500 via subcutaneous injection. GHK-Cu can be injected subcutaneously or used topically depending on the target area. Systemic and local administration may be combined. |
| Side Effects | Limited human data. Theoretical concerns about effects on other organs where activin signaling is important. | Generally well-tolerated. Possible injection site irritation, mild fatigue, or temporary skin discoloration with GHK-Cu. |
