Type
Glow Protocol is a three-peptide blend combining GHK-Cu (50mg), BPC-157 (10mg), and TB-500 (10mg) in a 5:1:1 ratio designed to synergistically drive tissue repair, collagen synthesis, and skin rejuvenation. GHK-Cu stimulates collagen and elastin production, BPC-157 promotes angiogenesis and wound healing, and TB-500 enhances fibroblast migration and cellular regeneration. Used in research and integrative wellness contexts for accelerated healing, anti-aging skin outcomes, and recovery from musculoskeletal injury. Molecular weight shown represents the dominant component GHK-Cu copper complex (C14H22CuN6O4, CAS 89030-95-5) at 401.9 Da; no single composite MW applies to the full blend.
Top researched benefits
Overview of Glow Protocol
GHK-Cu activates copper-dependent enzymes to upregulate collagen and elastin synthesis and modulate TGF-beta signaling for tissue remodeling; BPC-157 promotes angiogenesis via VEGFR2 pathway activation and reduces inflammatory cytokine expression at injury sites; TB-500 sequesters G-actin through thymosin beta-4 to facilitate rapid cell migration and tissue regeneration. Together these three pathways — collagen induction, neovascularization, and actin-driven cell motility — create a synergistic environment for accelerated repair.

Chemical Makeup
Key benefits
GHK-Cu component activates collagen and elastin synthesis via copper-dependent enzyme upregulation, visibly reducing fine lines and improving skin firmness within 2–3 weeks of use
BPC-157 promotes new blood vessel formation through VEGFR2 pathway activation, accelerating wound healing and enhancing nutrient delivery to damaged tissue
TB-500 facilitates rapid fibroblast and endothelial cell migration by sequestering G-actin, supporting fast regeneration of injured tendons, ligaments, and muscle tissue
Combined angiogenic and collagen-stimulating activity creates an optimal repair environment, resulting in faster recovery from musculoskeletal injuries than any single component alone

BlendGlow Protocol Protocols
Subcutaneous injection is the primary and most effective delivery route for the Glow Protocol blend (BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu), providing 65–100% bioavailability. The abdomen is the preferred injection site, rotated across four quadrants to prevent lipodystrophy and maintain consistent absorption.
| Goal | Dosage | Frequency | Route |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tissue Repair and Injury Recovery | 2330 | 1 day range | SubQ near injury |
| Skin Rejuvenation and Anti-Aging | 2330 | 1 day range | SubQ abdomen |
| Loading Phase (Acute Injury) | 2330 | 1 day range | SubQ near injury |
| Maintenance Phase (Post-Loading) | 1165 | 3 week range | SubQ abdomen |
| Gut Healing and GI Recovery | 2330 | 1 day range | SubQ abdomen |
| Collagen Synthesis and Connective Tissue Support | 2000 | 1 day range | SubQ abdomen |
Reconstitution Instructions
Materials needed:
Steps to reconstitute
- Allow the lyophilized Glow Protocol vial (70 mg) to come to room temperature before reconstitution.
- Draw 3 mL of bacteriostatic water (BAC water) into a 3 mL syringe.
- Wipe the vial's rubber stopper with an alcohol swab and allow it to dry for 10 seconds.
- Insert the syringe needle at an angle against the inside glass wall of the vial — never point it directly at the powder.
- Inject the BAC water slowly down the side of the vial to avoid foaming or denaturing the peptides.
- Gently swirl the vial in a circular motion until the powder is fully dissolved — do not shake.
- Label the vial with the reconstitution date and store refrigerated at 2–8 °C, protected from light. Use within 4 weeks.
- Draw the desired dose (e.g., 0.10 mL for 2,330 mcg of blend) into an insulin syringe.
- Select an injection site on the abdomen at least 2 inches from the navel; clean with an alcohol swab.
- Pinch the skin, insert the needle at a 45-degree angle, and inject slowly over 2–3 seconds. Do not aspirate.
- Withdraw the needle and apply gentle pressure with a clean cotton swab — do not rub.
- Rotate injection sites each day across at least four quadrants of the abdomen.
Glow Protocol Cycle
The Glow Protocol Cycle section explains how long a typical cycle lasts and what to expect during each phase. Over time, your body can become less responsive with continuous use.
Taking breaks between cycles may help maintain effectiveness and support better overall results.
- Week 1-2
- Initial tissue healing response begins
- Week 2-4
- Visible skin improvements may begin
- Week 4-8
- Collagen synthesis and regeneration effects
- Week 8-12
- Peak effects; optimal skin rejuvenation

Frequently asked questions
What is a peptide dosage calculator?
A peptide dosage calculator is a free tool that converts your vial size, bacteriostatic water volume, and target dose into an exact syringe draw volume. Instead of doing the reconstitution math by hand, you enter three inputs and instantly get the concentration of your solution and how many milliliters or syringeunits to draw. This calculator works for single peptide compounds and multi-peptide blends.
How do I calculate peptide dosage from a vial?
To calculate your peptide dose, divide the total peptide content of your vial in micrograms by the volume of bacteriostatic water you added in milliliters. This gives you your solution concentration in mcg/mL. Then divide your target dose by that concentration to get your draw volume. For example, a 5mg (5,000 mcg) vial reconstituted with 2mL of BAC water gives a concentration of 2,500 mcg/mL. A 250 mcg dose would require drawing 0.1mL. This calculator automates all of those steps instantly.
How much Bacteriostatic water should I add to a peptide vial?
Most people add 2mL to 3mL of bacteriostatic water per vial, but the right amount depends on the dose you want to draw and the syringe size you are using. Adding 1mL to a 5mg vial gives you a concentration of 5,000 mcg/mL, making each dose very small in volume. Adding 2mL gives you 2,500 mcg/mL, which is easier to measure on a standard insulin syringe. A general guideline is to choose a volume that puts your typical dose somewhere between 10 and 30 units on a U-100 syringe. Use the calculator above to test different water volumes and find what works for your dose.
How are peptides different from proteins?
Both are made of amino acids, but peptides are much smaller than proteins. Because of their tiny size, peptides can act like tiny messengers in the body, sending specific signals to your cells to tell them exactly what to do.
