It is studied for potential roles in tissue repair, inflammation regulation, and gastrointestinal protection, but remains an investigational compound without approved medical use
peptides degrade rapidly above 8C, and improper storage turns an active compound into an expensive saline solution
Acupuncture has a multi-target effect, which can simultaneously regulate multiple neurobiological targets and improve brain function
