Epitalon

Epitalon (Epithalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide derived from the pineal gland. It is considered one of the most potent anti-aging peptides due to its ability to activate telomerase and lengthen telomeres.

Mechanism of Action

It activates the telomerase enzyme, which repairs and lengthens telomeres (the protective caps on DNA). It also regulates melatonin secretion and normalizes the neuroendocrine system.

Key Benefits

Lengthens telomeres (cellular longevity)
Restores circadian rhythms and sleep
Improves antioxidant defense
Normalizes hormonal function
Potential cancer risk reduction
