Advanced Peptides Worth Knowing
8.1 Longevity & Cellular Health Peptides
Epitalon
Activates telomerase, helping to extend the life span of cells. Supports circadian rhythm regulation and pineal gland function.
Epitalon ↗FOXO4-DRI
Induces apoptosis of senescent cells ("zombie cells"). May slow aging by removing dysfunctional cells.
FOXO4-DRI ↗SS-31 (Elamipretide)
Protects mitochondrial membranes and improves energy production. Potential to reduce symptoms of age-related degeneration.
SS-31MOTS-c
A mitochondria-derived peptide that improves metabolism, enhances insulin sensitivity, and may promote fat loss and healthy aging.
