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
