How It Works
GHK-CU is a naturally occurring tripeptide (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine) with high affinity for copper(II) ions. It chelates copper and delivers it to enzymes critical for collagen cross-linking (lysyl oxidase), elastin production, and antioxidant defense (superoxide dismutase). It activates over 4,000 genes related to tissue remodeling, many of which decline significantly with age.
