Epitalon

Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) derived from a naturally occurring pineal gland peptide, studied for 35+ years primarily in Russian research for telomerase activation and telomere extension. Evidence suggests activation occurs at extremely low concentrations (10⁻¹⁷ to 10⁻¹⁵ M), with animal studies showing 25-33% lifespan increases; however, Western dosing protocols may have historically used 50-100x higher doses than necessary due to translation errors, potentially overexposing users.
