Longevity & aging
Peptides and related molecules studied in aging biology. Human evidence for longevity effects is limited.
These compounds are grouped by what they are studied for. Being studied for something is not the same as being proven to work, or safe. Compounds are listed from the strongest human evidence to the weakest.
Approved use · Regulator-approved for a specific indication
