It also helps slow visible signs of aging by protecting skin cells from free-radical damage
Complementing this primary mechanism, emerging evidence indicates that SFN modulates iron metabolism through upregulation of ferritin heavy chain (FTH1), potentially altering intracellular iron homeostasis to promote iron-mediated lipid peroxidation via Fenton chemistry (69, 70)
The peptides we use for regenerative medicine and longevity therapy are synthesized copies of endogenous molecules that have been manufactured according to current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) as a finished drug, isolated, purified to a single species and accurately dosed
KPV is a C-terminal fragment of alpha-MSH with potent anti-inflammatory activity in intestinal tissue
