While clinical development for obesity was discontinued in 2007 after a Phase IIb trial failed to achieve its primary endpoint, the peptide remains a valuable research tool for investigating adipose tissue biology, lipolytic pathways, and receptor-independent signaling mechanisms
Its major claim to beneficial effects occurs in aiding the healing of soft tissue injuries that affect tendons, ligaments, and skeletal muscles
When you put EDTA and copper peptides in the same formula, the EDTA can literally strip the copper out of the GHK-Cu complex, rendering the peptide inactive
That's a fundamentally different approach from stimulants that just rev your whole system
