A four-amino-acid peptide from Russian gerontology, proposed to activate telomerase.
Better sleep quality (deeper, more restorative); more vivid dreams; subtle lift in daytime energy/vitality; occasional reports of improved skin or overall “reset” feeling after short cycles.
The human literature comes almost entirely from one research group (Khavinson, St Petersburg), including long-running cohort work on the related pineal extract. Essentially none of it has been independently replicated outside that group, with one narrow exception: an in-vitro telomerase finding replicated in 2025 (Al-Dulaimi).
No reference figure is given here. There is no personal reference on file for this compound, and we would rather leave it blank than fill it with a guess. The Epithalon calculator will do the arithmetic for any amount you enter.
| Epithalon | 1 mL water | 2 mL water | 3 mL water | 5 mL water |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 mg vial | 10,000 mcg/mL | 5,000 mcg/mL | 3,333 mcg/mL | 2,000 mcg/mL |
| One unit (0.01 mL) | 100 mcg | 50 mcg | 33 mcg | 20 mcg |
Concentration = vial contents ÷ water added. It is the same compound at every volume — more water only means a weaker solution, larger syringe marks that are easier to read, and a larger injection volume. On a standard U-100 insulin syringe, one unit is 0.01 mL at any barrel size.
Education only. This page is educational. Most compounds referenced are not approved for human use, and a "research use only" label carries no legal status of its own.
Reported, not established. Any figure shown is a reported personal reference at the reconstitution stated — not a community average, not a clinical dose, and not necessarily right for anyone else's body, goals, or product.
Blank is deliberate. Where no figure appears, there is no personal reference to give. We would rather say nothing than imply confidence that isn't there.
Not medical advice. Nothing here constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Several of these are prescription medicines in Canada and the US, and several are approved nowhere at all. Consult a qualified healthcare professional before beginning any protocol.
