10mg · 2ml
SKU: kpv-10mg
KPV is a naturally occurring tripeptide derived from alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (a-MSH) that binds to melanocortin receptors to suppress pro-inflammatory cytokines including TNF-a, IL-1B, and IL-6. It calms inflammation across the gut, skin, and cellular level, supporting intestinal barrier integrity, wound healing, and immune balance.
