What is GHK-Cu?
GHK-Cu is a copper complex of the tripeptide GHK. The name identifies both the short amino-acid chain and its bound copper.
GHK stands for glycine, histidine and lysine, in that order. Cu is the chemical symbol for copper. Together, GHK-Cu specifies a more precise chemical identity than GHK alone.
GHK-Cu is also a named component of the Klow blend. The separate GHK-Cu product and a multi-component mixture must therefore be distinguished when comparing contents and quantities.

GHK, GHK-Cu and copper quantity
An amount stated for GHK-Cu does not represent the same amount of pure elemental copper. The product name denotes the complex containing both peptide and copper.
The mg quantity distinguishes one pack variant from another. It does not state a finished solution concentration or the copper content of another multi-component product.
Frequently asked questions about GHK-Cu
What do the letters GHK stand for?
They are the one-letter codes for glycine, histidine and lysine. Cu identifies the copper complex.
Are GHK and GHK-Cu exactly the same designation?
No. GHK identifies the peptide; GHK-Cu identifies its copper complex. That distinction matters when identifying material.
Which variants of GHK-Cu are listed?
Listed variants: 50 mg / 100 mg. The quantity belongs to each product variant; current availability is shown in the variant selector.
