Epitalon---The “fountain of youth” peptide

Epitalon is a synthetic tetra-peptide with amino acid sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. Epitalon is derived from Epithalamin (Epithalamine), a naturally occurring polypeptide in the body, which is produced in pineal gland. A very valuable and unique main property of Epitalon is its ability to increase telomerase activity in somatic cells. This helps cells reproduce telomeres, which are the essential “protective parts” of our DNA, which eventually results in a slowdown in the aging process.

Epitalon has been called the “fountain of youth” peptide because of its rejuvenating effects. Our patients have also benefited from better sleep and reduced stress with regular Epitalon treatment. It is one of several peptides we offer that might be right for you.

Epitalon’s primary role is to increase the natural production of telomerase, a natural enzyme that helps cells reproduce telomeres, which are the protective parts of our DNA. This allows the replication of our DNA so the body can grow new cells and rejuvenate old ones. Younger people produce a relatively large amount of telomerase and longer telomeres. The longer the telomere strands are, the better cell health and replication they provide. However, as people age, the production of telomerase falls and consequently cell replication and health decline. This is the main reason that people age.It also plays a role in regulating metabolism, increasing the sensitivity of hypothalamus to its natural hormonal influences, normalizing the function of the anterior pituitary and regulating the levels of gonadotropins and melatonin in the body.

Benefits of Epitalon 

As a result of Epitalon’s effect on telomerase production, the benefits are unique and far-reaching and include:

May increase human lifespan by lengthening telomeres in human cells

Prevent the effects of Free radicals 

Promotes Deeper Sleep 

Delay and prevention of age-related diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and dementia

Can act as an antioxidant by reducing lipid oxidation and ROS (Reactive oxygen species) along with normalizing T cell function.

Improvement of skin health and appearance

Healing of injured and deteriorating muscle cells

Has been shown to Restore and normalize melatonin levels in older people who have lost some pineal function due to aging

May increases resistance to emotional stress
