Description
Epitalon is a synthetic peptide derived from epithalamin, a natural string of amino acids found in the pineal gland. It stimulates the production of the enzyme that plays a key role in the maintenance and repair of telomeres called telomerase. By increasing telomerase production, Epitalon may help prevent or slow down the shortening of telomeres, which could potentially delay the aging process and increase lifespan.
Epitalon has been shown to have various biological effects in laboratory studies, with promising results in delaying aging, modulating the immune system, protecting neurons against oxidative damage, and regulating melatonin production for better sleep quality.
