TB-500 vs TB4-Frag for stubborn tendonitis

Posted by runner_aaron in Healing & Recovery - 1 points, 0 comments.

Howzit everyone. I am still dealing with this Achilles issue and it is just NOT moving as fast as I hoped. I have been using TB-500 at 2mg twice a week, but the progress feels slow tbh.

I was looking at TB4-Frag /peptides/tb4-fragment and noticed it has a smaller molecular size. I am wondering if that actually helps with tissue penetration for tendons compared to the synthetic TB-500 /peptides/tb-500. Some people say the fragment is more targeted.

Has anyone here switched from the full synthetic version to the fragment for a joint or tendon injury? I want to know if you actually felt a difference in how the injury responded or if it is just hype. I am trying to figure out if I should stick with the loading protocol I am on or try the fragment daily instead.

I am doing physio now now, so I want to make sure the timing is right to get the most out of it. Any experience with switching between these two would be lekker.
