GLOW
A three-peptide blend pairing the Wolverine stack with GHK-Cu.
Overview
GLOW is a premixed vial of BPC-157, TB-500 and GHK-Cu, 70 mg in total. It is marketed for skin and recovery together. No study has ever tested this blend; the case for it is built from each part's own evidence.
How it works
BPC-157 supports local repair and blood-vessel growth, TB-500 helps cells move to injured tissue, and GHK-Cu delivers copper and drives collagen signaling. How they act together has not been studied.
Evidence
2/5
No studies of the blend itself. BPC-157 and TB-500 are mostly animal data; GHK-Cu's human data is topical.
Half-life
Mixed: each component differs; all are short-acting signals

Reported benefits
Skin firmness & collagen
GHK-Cu improved skin in small human studies, but those were topical.
Tissue repair
BPC-157 and TB-500 sped healing in animal injury models.

Not recommendations. These are commonly cited ranges, shown so you can see what real-world use looks like.
| Plan | Dose | Frequency | Duration | Route |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Community standard Dose is of the total blend. If the vial is split 10 mg BPC-157 / 10 mg TB-500 / 50 mg GHK-Cu, 2 mg of blend gives about 285 mcg BPC-157, 285 mcg TB-500 and 1.4 mg GHK-Cu. Check the vial label for the split before dosing. | 2000 mcg | Once daily | 4–6 weeks | Subcutaneous |
| Community cautious start | 1000 mcg | Once daily | 1–2 weeks, then reassess | Subcutaneous |

The vial outlasts its ~28-day shelf life once mixed. A smaller vial wastes less.
Math only: concentration (mg/mL) = vial mg ÷ mL of water; units = dose (mg) ÷ concentration × 100. Always double-check against your own vial label and a clinician. This tool does not recommend a dose.
Reconstitution
Diluent: Bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) — allows multiple draws from one vial.
- Wipe both vial tops with an alcohol swab and let dry.
- Draw the diluent, then inject it slowly down the inside wall of the vial — never straight onto the powder.
- Swirl gently or let it sit; do not shake. Foam can damage peptides.
- Solution should be clear. Cloudy, stringy or discolored = discard.
- This is a blend. The dose you enter is total blend, not any single peptide.
- The split between the three peptides matters for dosing. Check the vial label for the split.
- A faint blue tint comes from the GHK-Cu copper and is normal.
- Common mix: 70 mg + 3.5 mL = 20 mg/mL (2 mg = 10 units).
Storage
Powder
Freezer / fridge
Keep sealed vial in the freezer (−20 °C) for long-term storage; fridge (2–8 °C) is fine for a few weeks. Keep dry and out of light.
After mixing
~28 days
Refrigerate at 2–8 °C. Never freeze after mixing. Keep upright, capped, and out of light.
Travel
Keep cool
Short trips at room temperature are generally fine for powder; keep mixed vials cold.
- Avoid mixing with acids or chelators, which strip the copper from GHK-Cu.
Side effects & cautions
Reported side effects
- Stinging or burning at injection site (from GHK-Cu)
- Skin redness at the site
- Head rush or tiredness (reported with TB-500)
- Unknown long-term effects
Cautions
- Contains BPC-157 and TB-500, both banned by WADA.
- Theoretical concern with a cancer history: parts of the blend promote blood-vessel growth and cell migration.
- Avoid with Wilson's disease or copper-metabolism disorders.
- For skin alone, topical GHK-Cu has better evidence than injecting a blend.

FAQ
Is GLOW mainly GHK-Cu?
Usually yes, by weight. Many 70 mg blends are mostly GHK-Cu with smaller amounts of BPC-157 and TB-500, but check your vial label.
GLOW or KLOW?
KLOW adds KPV for inflammation. If you don't need that, GLOW is the simpler blend.
Will it work better than topical GHK-Cu for skin?
Unknown. Topical GHK-Cu has the human skin data; injected blends do not.
