Goals · Recovery & Repair
Tendon, ligament, and muscle injury healing. Collagen-promoting peptides and growth factors.
Compounds linked to this goal in the catalogue, ordered by role — primary, then support, then optional. Roles follow peptide-db's per-use effectiveness rating (most effective → primary, effective → support, moderate or thinner → optional); a compound that reaches the goal through a curated stack or a condition page says so.
