How to read this list

Every quantitative claim on this BPC-157 site maps to a numbered entry below. The research citations cover mechanism, pharmacokinetics, tissue repair, and the human pilot studies; the final entries are the FDA and federal sources behind the BPC-157 legal status page. Where a study is paywalled, the PubMed or DOI link still resolves to the abstract and metadata. Animal-model figures are reported as study parameters, not human guidance, throughout.
