Description

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 regenerative capacity of an organism. GHK-Cu functions as a complex with copper stimulates collagen production, accelerates wound healing and contraction, improves the take of transplanted skin, and also possesses anti-inflammatory properties.
