How to recommend
Start from the patient's concern, match it to the right peptide or stack, and start conservative. These are general education references, not treatment protocols. For individualized recommendations, refer to Dr. Porter at integrativemedutah.com.
Match the concern
| Patient concern | Consider |
|---|---|
| Recovery from injury, post-surgery, tendon and ligament repair | BPC-157, TB4 Frag, Muscle Growth & Recovery Stack |
| Gut health: IBD/colitis, leaky gut, digestive inflammation | BPC-157, KPV, Prebio Plus, Prospore |
| Chronic systemic inflammation | KPV, Ultromega, BPC-157 |
| Sleep, circadian dysregulation, insomnia | Epitalon, Synerg Mag |
| Longevity, anti-aging, telomere health | Epitalon, Methylene Blue, Mitomax, Thymogen Alpha 1 |
| Immune support, age-related immune decline | Thymogen Alpha 1, KPV |
| Cognitive performance, mitochondrial energy, fatigue | Methylene Blue, Mitomax, TB4 Frag |
| Cardiovascular, omega-3, triglycerides | Ultromega, TB4 Frag |
| Fat loss, metabolic support, athletic cutting | Opticut |
| Post-viral and long-COVID recovery | Thymogen Alpha 1, KPV, Mitomax, Ultromega, Synerg Mag |
Recommended pairings
The combinations practitioners reach for most, with the rationale behind each.
BPC-157 + TB4 Frag
The Wolverine repair stack. BPC drives blood supply into injured tissue and wakes up tendon-repair signaling. TB4 Frag works a different pathway: less scar tissue, cleaner repair, new vessels into the injury. Different phases of the same repair.
BPC-157 + KPV
The gut stack. BPC rebuilds the epithelium and connective tissue while KPV shuts down inflammation at the transcription level, concentrating in inflamed gut tissue. The most-prescribed integrative protocol for IBS, IBD, leaky gut, and post-antibiotic recovery.
BPC-157 + KPV + Prebio Plus + Prospore
Full gut rebuild. Calm inflammation, rebuild the barrier, reseed the microbiome, then feed it. Sequence matters: reduce inflammation first for one to two weeks before layering in spores.
Epitalon + Synerg Mag
Sleep and circadian. Epitalon restores endogenous melatonin through pineal entrainment; magnesium glycinate potentiates GABA-A and supports deeper sleep. A clean PM pairing.
KPV + Thymogen Alpha 1
Immune and inflammation. KPV down-regulates inflammation while Thymogen restores T-cell maturation and immune balance. For post-viral, long-COVID, recurrent infections with chronic inflammation.
BPC-157 + TB4 Frag + Epitalon
The Muscle Growth & Recovery Stack. Acute tissue repair from BPC and TB4, plus the deep restorative sleep when growth-hormone pulses peak from Epitalon. The rest arm is rate-limiting in many athletes.
