GHK-Cu - Pure Health Peptides

GHK-Cu

GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper) is a naturally occurring copper peptide that plays a critical role in tissue remodeling, wound healing, and cellular repair. It is composed of three amino acids (glycine, histidine, and lysine) bound to copper ions. GHK-Cu has been extensively studied for its potential to stimulate collagen production, regulate inflammation, and promote skin health and regeneration. GHK-Cu is provided in lyophilized powder form for research applications targeting cellular repair, skin health, and anti-inflammatory processes.
