Epithalon, also known as Epitalon, is a synthetic peptide that has been studied for its potential anti-aging effects. It is a tetrapeptide composed of four amino acids, namely alanine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and glycine. Epithalon works by stimulating the production of telomerase, an enzyme that is responsible for protecting and lengthening telomeres. Telomeres are the protective caps on the ends of chromosomes, and their length is associated with cellular aging. Shortened telomeres have been linked to a number of age-related diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. Studies on animals have shown that epithalon can increase lifespan and improve overall health.

This peptide comes in lyophilized vials.
