KPV Capsules (500mcg per capsule)
Overview
KPV is a naturally occurring tripeptide fragment derived from the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is composed of the amino acids Lysine-Proline-Valine (KPV) and has gained interest in research for its potential anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and wound-healing properties. KPV capsules provide a convenient oral research format for studies exploring systemic and localized effects.
Key Research Areas
-
Anti-Inflammatory Effects – Studied for its ability to reduce inflammation by downregulating pro-inflammatory cytokines.
-
Gut Health – Research suggests KPV may help in maintaining intestinal barrier integrity and reducing inflammation in the digestive tract.
-
Skin & Wound Healing – Explored for topical and systemic roles in accelerating tissue repair and reducing skin inflammation.
-
Immune System Modulation – Investigated for balancing immune activity, particularly in conditions linked to excessive inflammation.
