Epitalon (Epithalon): Telomerase and Pineal Peptide Research
An evidence-based review of the pineal tetrapeptide Epitalon. Covers how it is derived from natural epithalamin, the telomerase and telomere-length research, its effects on melatonin and circadian rhythm, and what the animal and human studies actually show.
