GHK-CU
GHK-Cu is a tripeptide with the amino acid sequence glycyl-histidyl-lysine. It naturally occurs in human plasma. It has also been found in saliva and urine. In plasma, the level of GHK declines as you age. This decline in the GHK level coincides with the noticeable decrease in the regenerative capacity of an organism. GHK-Cu functions as a complex with copper stimulate collagen production, accelerates wound healing and contraction, improves the take of transplanted skin, and also possesses anti-
inflammatory properties.
