Longevity & immune-support peptides, explained
"Longevity" is where the marketing is loudest and the human evidence thinnest. This page lists what is actually studied — mitochondrial, telomere and immune research — and how far each has got.

O que as pessoas costumam perguntar
The honest framing: no peptide has been shown to extend human lifespan. What exists is research into mechanisms that are associated with ageing — mitochondrial function, NAD+ metabolism, telomere biology, immune signalling — mostly in cells and animals, with a few early human studies. That is interesting, and it is also a long way from a treatment.

Epithalon (epitalon) is studied for telomerase-related effects, almost entirely in cell and animal models and older Russian studies. NAD+ is a coenzyme rather than a peptide; its precursors have human trials with modest and inconsistent findings. MOTS-c and SS-31 are studied for mitochondrial function, with SS-31 in human trials for specific diseases. LL-37 and KPV are studied in immune and inflammatory contexts, preclinically.

Perguntas que vale a pena levar ao profissional
A avaliação é o lugar para perguntas individuais. Estas costumam tornar essa conversa útil.
- What is the human evidence, specifically, as opposed to cell or animal studies?
- What would we measure to know whether anything changed?
- What established interventions — exercise, sleep, blood-pressure and lipid control — should come first?
- What is known about long-term safety?
O que acontece se você iniciar uma avaliação
The intake asks about your health history, family history, current medications and what you are actually hoping to address. A licensed provider reviews it and tells you plainly what is and is not supported. Free, about 10 minutes, no obligation.
Perguntas frequentes
Has any peptide been shown to extend human lifespan?
No. Research exists into mechanisms associated with ageing, but no peptide has been demonstrated to extend lifespan in humans.
Is NAD+ a peptide?
No. NAD+ is a coenzyme. It is included here because it is frequently discussed alongside peptides in longevity contexts and people ask about it.
Does Vitrex make anti-ageing claims?
No. Vitrex describes research status honestly, including where evidence is preclinical or absent, and makes no outcome claims.
