GLOW Blend Calculator

GLOW is a term used in online peptide communities to describe a three-peptide blend typically containing GHK-Cu, TB-500, and BPC-157, marketed in skin and cosmetic contexts. A commonly cited formulation is 50 mg GHK-Cu, 10 mg TB-500, and 5 mg BPC-157 for a 65 mg total vial, though individual vendor products may label this as 70 mg. Editable below.

Components in the GLOW Blend

Each peptide in this blend has its own individual calculator page with factual information on vial sizes, reported half-life, and storage. Compositions vary by vendor — the mg ratios above are defaults based on commonly cited formulations.

  • GHK-Cu — A copper-binding tripeptide isolated from human plasma, studied for its role in extracellular matrix signaling and wound healing.
  • TB-500 — A synthetic fragment of thymosin beta-4, the actin-sequestering protein studied for cytoskeletal dynamics in tissue repair.
  • BPC-157 — A synthetic pentadecapeptide derived from a sequence found in human gastric juice, studied for tissue repair signaling mechanisms.

How to use this calculator

The GLOW Blend calculator handles two dose-targeting modes:

  1. Target total blend dose — "I want 2 mg of the blend per injection." The calculator returns the draw volume and reports how much of each component you're getting at that draw.
  2. Target specific component — "I want 250 mcg of BPC-157 specifically." The calculator back-calculates the draw from that component's concentration, and reports incidental amounts of the other components delivered at the same draw.

If your vial's stated total mg differs from the sum of component mg values (common on vendor labels — rounding, copper-ion mass, excipients), the calculator flags the mismatch and uses the component sum as the authoritative total for math purposes.

GLOW Blend FAQ

What is the GLOW Blend? +
GLOW is a community term for a three-peptide blend of GHK-Cu, TB-500, and BPC-157. It is commonly discussed in the context of skin appearance and regenerative research.
What is the typical GLOW composition? +
Commonly cited as 50 mg GHK-Cu + 10 mg TB-500 + 5 mg BPC-157 for a 65 mg total. Some vendors label this as 70 mg (differences attributed to rounding, copper-ion mass, or excipients). Use the calculator above to model your specific vial.
How is GLOW different from KLOW? +
KLOW adds KPV as a fourth component. GLOW is the three-peptide version without KPV. Both share the GHK-Cu + BPC-157 + TB-500 core.
How do I calculate a GHK-Cu-specific dose from GLOW? +
In the calculator above, switch the dose-target mode to "specific component" and select GHK-Cu. Enter your target GHK-Cu dose; the calculator back-calculates the draw volume and reports the incidental amounts of BPC-157 and TB-500 delivered at that draw.
