Comparison: Epithalon Timeline vs Other Longevity Peptides

Epithalon Telomerase activation + pineal regulation 4-8 weeks (immune/hormonal) 10-16 weeks (telomerase) 10-20 days every 4-6 months Slowest onset, deepest structural change. Requires patience and protocol adherence Thymalin Thymic peptide immune restoration 2

  • Epithalon
  • Telomerase activation + pineal regulation
  • 4-8 weeks (immune/hormonal)
  • 10-16 weeks (telomerase)
  • 10-20 days every 4-6 months
  • Slowest onset, deepest structural change. Requires patience and protocol adherence
  • Thymalin
  • Thymic peptide immune restoration
  • 2-4 weeks (T-cell subsets)
  • 6-8 weeks (thymic output)
  • 10 days every 3-6 months
  • Faster immune response, no telomere effect. Complements Epithalon
  • MK-677
  • Growth hormone secretagogue
  • 7-14 days (IGF-1 elevation)
  • 8-12 weeks (body composition)
  • Continuous daily dosing
  • Immediate hormonal response, indirect longevity via metabolic optimisation
  • NAD+ Precursors
  • Mitochondrial NAD+ restoration
  • 1-2 weeks (subjective energy)
  • 4-8 weeks (mitochondrial function)
  • Faster subjective effects, mitochondrial-focused rather than nuclear aging
  • Metformin
  • AMPK activation + mTOR inhibition
  • 2-4 weeks (glucose regulation)
  • 12-24 weeks (cellular stress resistance)
  • Well-studied longevity mechanism, but metabolic focus. Not telomere-targeted
