Some of these injectable peptides, including injectable GHK-Cu, have safety risks and cannot currently be compounded for purchase by a pharmacy
Individuals most likely to need B12 vitamin shots include older adults, vegetarians, vegans, and those with digestive disorders
It has also been shown to lower homocysteine levels, a molecule linked to inflammation and cognitive decline, with longitudinal studies linking optimal B12 levels with improved cognitive function, mood and reduced risk of neurodegenerative disease
Potential therapeutic effects (based on animal and early human data): Enhances tendon, ligament, and muscle repair Promotes angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) Reduces inflammation and oxidative stress Protects gut mucosa and may aid in GI disorders (ulcers, leaky gut) May support neurological recovery and joint health Modulates nitric oxide and dopamine/serotonin pathways (possible mood, focus benefits) (Note: Most data are from preclinical studies
So the two papers above are doing real scientific work
--- The Clinical Data: 22% vs Minoxidil The 2022 study compared a 0.5% GHK-Cu serum against 3% minoxidil in patients with androgenetic alopecia over a 16-week period
