Immune, Gut & LongevityAn evidence-first ranking of the peptides studied for inflammatory bowel disease — BPC-157, KPV, thymosin alpha-1 and larazotide acetate — separating decades of rodent colitis data from the near-total absence of human IBD trials.

Injuries & OrthopedicsAn evidence-graded review of the peptides marketed for hip labral tears, femoroacetabular impingement, gluteal tendinopathy (GTPS) and hip bursitis. The honest 2026 verdict: no peptide has a human hip trial — the evidence tops out at animal models, while exercise and PRP hold the real human RCT data.

Injuries & OrthopedicsA clinical, evidence-graded ranking of the peptides studied for bone — from the FDA-approved PTH-class anabolics with Grade A fracture-prevention RCTs to the entirely preclinical regenerative peptides.

Injuries & OrthopedicsA clinical, evidence-first look at the peptides pitched for lateral and medial epicondylitis — BPC-157 and TB-500/thymosin β-4 — and why both are graded C (preclinical only) for the elbow.

Injuries & OrthopedicsAn evidence-graded review of the peptides marketed for cartilage and meniscus repair. The honest 2026 verdict: no peptide has a placebo-controlled human trial showing cartilage regrowth or meniscus repair, and the only controlled human data belongs to pentosan polysulfate — which is not even a peptide.

Injuries & OrthopedicsLL-37, GHK-Cu, thymosin β4/TB-500 and BPC-157 all have real wound-healing biology — but not a single controlled human burn trial. A clinical-editorial ranking of what the evidence actually supports in 2026.

Injuries & OrthopedicsAn evidence-graded review of the peptides marketed for athletic recovery — BPC-157, ipamorelin, CJC-1295 and TB-500. The honest 2026 verdict: every one is Grade C or D for recovery as an outcome, none is FDA-approved, and all are WADA-banned at all times.

Injuries & OrthopedicsAn evidence-graded review of the peptides marketed for ankle sprains, ATFL tears and Achilles injury. The honest 2026 verdict: no human RCT exists; the strongest case is preclinical (rat Achilles models), and PRP — not a peptide — has the better human ankle evidence.
