Epithalon

Epithalon – Telomere Regeneration and Anti-Aging Peptide

Product Name: Epithalon
Full Name: Epitalon (or Epithalamin)
Form: Lyophilized powder (for reconstitution and injection)
Category: Peptide / Anti-aging compound
Primary Use: Telomere extension, longevity, cellular regeneration

Description:

Epithalon (also known as Epitalon) is a tetrapeptide composed of the amino acids Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. It was first isolated from the pineal gland in the 1990s by Russian scientist Vladimir Khavinson. Epithalon has gained attention in both the anti-aging and longevity research communities for its potential to extend telomeres, the protective caps on chromosomes that shorten with age and are associated with cellular aging.

The peptide has shown anti-aging, anti-oxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a popular biohacking tool aimed at improving healthspan and lifespan. It is also thought to support the pineal gland and melatonin production, which can improve sleep quality and regulate circadian rhythms.

Key Benefits:

• Telomere extension and cellular regeneration

• Promotes longevity and may reduce the effects of aging

• Supports melatonin production, improving sleep patterns

• Anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties

• May enhance immune function and cognitive health

• Can improve skin quality, reduce wrinkles, and support skin regeneration

Mechanism of Action:

• Telomere Lengthening: Epithalon is believed to activate telomerase, an enzyme that extends telomeres, slowing cellular aging.

• Antioxidant Action: Reduces oxidative stress, which is a key factor in aging and degenerative diseases.

• Pineal Gland Support: Epithalon helps regulate the pineal gland, promoting melatonin production, which impacts sleep cycles, mood, and circadian rhythms.

• Regenerative Effects: Stimulates cellular regeneration and tissue repair, aiding in recovery from age-related damage.

Dosage & Administration:

• Form: Typically reconstituted with bacteriostatic water for injection (subcutaneous or intramuscular use)

• Typical Dosage:

  • Daily: 1–3 mg per day for 10–20 days (loading phase)

  • Maintenance: Can be cycled with 1–2 cycles per year

• Frequency: Typically administered once daily during the active phase

• Cycle Length: 10–20 days for active phase, followed by a rest period
