Why an oral peptide is not a contradiction for KPV
Most peptides are useless taken by mouth: the gut digests them. KPV is unusual because it can ride a real transporter, PepT1, that actively pulls dipeptides and tripeptides into intestinal cells. That single fact is the backbone of KPV's gut-health reputation.
This unit explains how PepT1 works, why it is preserved in inflamed gut exactly where you want it, and the crucial distinction between local gut exposure and whole-body bioavailability.
