What are the most common mistakes with BPC-157?
The most common BPC-157 mistakes are running it indefinitely instead of cycling; underdosing (under 200mcg often blunts the response); leaving reconstituted vial at room temp longer than 7 days. Most issues people run into come down to protocol and expectations, not the compound itself. Going in informed matters here because human evidence for BPC-157 is limited.
