Epithalon vs SS-31
Which should you choose? Here's what you need to know.
The short answer
Epithalon protects cells from aging by maintaining telomeres. SS-31 protects mitochondria from aging by stabilizing their inner membrane. Both are anti-aging but at different cellular targets.
Epithalon
Metabolic / LongevityEpithalon activates telomerase to rebuild the protective caps on chromosomes. It may also regulate circadian rhythms and oxidative stress through pineal gland modulation.
Choose Epithalon if:
You're focused on telomere-level longevity and chromosomal protection.
SS-31
Metabolic / LongevitySS-31 (elamipretide) is an FDA-approved synthetic peptide that physically stabilizes the inner mitochondrial membrane, protecting energy production and reducing oxidative damage.
Choose SS-31 if:
You want to directly protect and restore mitochondrial function, especially for age-related energy decline.
