Dosage Protocol: Age Reversal and Comprehensive Systemic Regeneration

IMPORTANT: General Usage Considerations

Aging is NOT an inevitable decline characterized by fatigue, weakness, fat accumulation, and cognitive impairment, but rather the result of a "corrupted biological operating system" due to toxic inputs (inflammatory diet, chronic stress, environmental toxins, symptom-suppressing medications) and dysfunctional signals that deregulate circadian rhythms, collapse mitochondrial function, perpetuate systemic inflammation, and cause metabolic dysfunction. This comprehensive protocol is designed NOT to "slow down" aging but to completely REBOOT the biological system with its "original software," restoring function to youthful levels through four synergistic pillars: 1) Restoration of Circadian Rhythm and Sleep Architecture (DSIP), 2) Pineal Gland Reset and Telomere Protection (Epitalon), 3) Extinction of Systemic Inflammation and Microvascularization Building (BPC-157), and 4) Complete Metabolic Reprogramming and Obesity Reversal (Retatrutide). CRITICAL: This protocol is designed for individuals seeking comprehensive biological optimization, NOT for acute medical conditions requiring urgent conventional intervention. Implementation should be phased, starting with the fundamental pillars of sleep restoration and inflammatory control before adding metabolic reprogramming. This is not a 30-day protocol but a 12-16 week commitment (100 days optimal) to observe quantifiable systemic transformation: restored deep sleep, optimized mitochondrial energy, eliminated inflammation, reversed visceral fat, and regained mental clarity. The fundamentals of toxin elimination (sugars, industrial oils, endocrine disruptors), optimization of morning sun exposure, structured exercise, and stress management are absolutely non-negotiable and account for 40-50% of the results. This protocol complements, but does not replace, medical evaluation, particularly if there are established chronic conditions (diabetes, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders).

PILLAR 1: Restoration of Circadian Rhythm and Sleep Architecture

DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide)

• Dosage : As a "programming key" that is NOT a "knockout" sedative but gently reminds the hypothalamus how to regulate sleep-wake cycles as in childhood, acting directly on the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN - the brain's master clock) to reset the cascade of hormonal rhythms that govern everything from cortisol to testosterone and leptin, DSIP is critical for reversing aging because without deep, restorative sleep, there is no fat loss, muscle building, healing, or longevity possible. In the context of anti-aging optimization, where sleep architecture is typically disrupted by chronic stress, artificial light at night, sedative medications, and HPA axis dysregulation, a dose of 100-300 mcg per administration is recommended. For mild sleep dysfunction with prolonged latency (>30 minutes to sleep) or occasional nighttime awakenings, 100-150 mcg daily may be appropriate. For severe chronic insomnia, fragmented sleep with multiple awakenings, complete delta sleep deficiency (measurable by polysomnography or sleep trackers showing <10% of time in deep sleep), or completely desynchronized circadian rhythm (night workers, chronic jet lag), the 200-300 mcg daily dose provides more robust restoration of the SCN and more aggressive normalization of circadian hormonal pulses.

• Administration Frequency : DSIP is administered by subcutaneous injection, strictly once a day at night approximately 30-60 minutes before the desired bedtime. This nighttime timing is absolutely critical because: 1) DSIP acts as a "permission to rest" signal to the hypothalamus, initiating the cascade that leads to deep delta (slow-wave) sleep—administering it during the day would be counterproductive and cause inappropriate sleepiness; 2) The SCN needs this signal in the pre-sleep window to synchronize all subsequent hormonal rhythms (nighttime melatonin peak, cortisol nadir, GH peak during early sleep stages); 3) DSIP does NOT cause immediate sedation like drugs (it is not a "jackhammer" that knocks you out but a "precision wrench" that unlocks natural pathways), but rather induces a smooth transition to natural sleep within 30-90 minutes. The subcutaneous injection can be performed at any standard site (abdomen, thighs); many users prefer the abdomen for convenience. Absolute consistency in administration schedule (ideally the same time every night ±15 minutes) is critical for training the circadian clock - the body learns that "this time = sleep start" and anticipates appropriately.

• Cycle duration : DSIP can be used continuously for 8-12 week cycles as an intensive “circadian retraining” phase. During this period, dramatic progressive improvements in sleep architecture are observed: increased delta (slow-wave) sleep from 20-50% of total sleep time (measurable by polysomnography or advanced trackers such as Oura Ring, Whoop), reduced sleep latency (time to fall asleep) to <15 minutes, elimination or dramatic reduction of nighttime awakenings, improved sleep continuity (less fragmentation), normalization of the circadian cortisol rhythm (appropriate morning peak 30-60 min post-wake, nighttime nadir), and, as a consequence of restored sleep, daytime improvements: morning energy without alarms or massive caffeine, mental clarity during the day, mood stability, and optimization of body composition (deep sleep is when nocturnal lipolysis and muscle protein synthesis occur). After the initial 8-12 week cycle, a 2-4 week break is recommended to assess whether the circadian clock has been "reprogrammed" and is now functioning autonomously without external cues. Many users experience significantly improved sleep for weeks or months after discontinuing DSIP due to genuine SCN retraining—the hypothalamus has "remembered" how to regulate sleep appropriately. If significant regression occurs during the break (return of insomnia, sleep fragmentation), a second 8-12 week cycle may be indicated. For long-term use as part of a comprehensive anti-aging strategy, active 8-12 week cycles followed by 2-4 week breaks can be repeated indefinitely, or intermittent 4-6 week cycles can be used every 3-4 months as circadian optimization "pulses." IMPORTANT : DSIP is a RESTORATION tool, not chronic sedation - the goal is to use it temporarily to re-educate the system, then allow it to function autonomously with appropriate foundations (sleep hygiene, morning sun exposure, complete nighttime darkness).

PILLAR 2: Pineal Gland Reset and Telomeric Protection

Epitalon

• Dosage : As a tetrapeptide that goes "far beyond being a simple anti-aging peptide," acting as a "reset switch" for the pineal gland (stimulating endogenous melatonin release, ensuring natural and rhythmic production without external pills) and activating telomerase (the enzyme that protects telomeres—the protective caps of DNA—preventing them from shortening with each cell division, where longer telomeres = slower cellular aging), Epitalon creates a powerful synergy with DSIP. DSIP restores the SCN rhythm, and Epitalon reactivates the pineal gland, which then executes this rhythm using endogenous melatonin. Studies with mice treated with Epitalon showed a 40% increase in lifespan without disease, cancer, or metabolic collapse. In the context of biological age reversal, where the goal is to maximize cellular longevity through telomere protection and optimize circadian synchronization by restoring pineal gland function, the characteristic Epitalon protocol is recommended: 5-10 mg daily for 10-20 consecutive days as a deep "reprogramming" cycle. The most common and well-established protocol uses 10 mg daily for 20 consecutive days. Some protocols for very aggressive anti-aging or in individuals with documented accelerated biological aging (significantly reduced telomere length, if measured, biological age > chronological age according to epigenetic clocks) use doses of 20 mg daily for 10 days, although for the objectives of this protocol, the 10 mg dose for 20 days provides an excellent balance between effectiveness, safety, and cost-effectiveness.

• Administration frequency : Epitalon is administered by subcutaneous injection once daily, preferably at night approximately 1-2 hours before sleep, during the concentrated and continuous 10-20 day period of the active cycle. Nighttime administration is strategic because: 1) Epitalon stimulates the pineal gland to produce endogenous melatonin, and nighttime administration reinforces the appropriate circadian pattern of melatonin secretion (the nighttime peak that induces sleep and has systemic antioxidant effects overnight); 2) Telomerase activity (activated by Epitalon) and DNA repair are naturally more active during sleep when cells are not under active metabolic stress; 3) The combination with DSIP (also nighttime) creates synergy, where DSIP normalizes the SCN and Epitalon optimizes the pineal gland's execution of this rhythm, fully restoring the circadian axis. During the 10-20 days of the active cycle, absolute consistency in the nightly administration schedule (ideally the same time each night ±30 minutes) is important to optimize effects on circadian synchronization. Subcutaneous injection can be performed at any standard site (abdomen, thighs); many users prefer the abdominal area for convenience. SYNERGY WITH DSIP : Epitalon can be administered concurrently with DSIP (same nightly schedule) using separate syringes at different sites, or sequentially (first DSIP for 2-4 weeks to stabilize the baseline circadian rhythm, then add Epitalon for pineal optimization).

• Cycle Duration : The signature Epitalon protocol consists of an intensive 10-20 consecutive days of daily administration at 10 mg per dose (continuous administration without rest days during the cycle), followed by an extremely long 4-6 month break before repeating the cycle. This unique "short intensive pulse followed by extended rest" structure is based on the well-supported theory that Epitalon induces lasting and potentially permanent changes in: telomerase activity (allowing telomere elongation that protects against cellular senescence for months—telomeres elongated by Epitalon do not shorten immediately after discontinuation but provide a longevity buffer), pineal gland function (restoring the ability to produce rhythmic endogenous melatonin that persists after the peptide has been eliminated), and modulation of the oxidative stress response—changes that persist long after elimination from the system. For individuals integrating Epitalon into long-term longevity and age-reversal strategies, a prudent pattern is 20-day cycles performed twice a year (e.g., at the beginning of spring and autumn, or every 6 months) that provide regular "pulses" of telomere protection and pineal synchronization without overuse. Some protocols consider more frequent cycles (every 3-4 months), particularly in individuals with accelerated biological aging or exposure to severe stressors (occupational oxidative stress, radiation, prior chemotherapy), although the consensus favors less frequent cycles for optimal lasting effects on cellular longevity. COMBINATION WITH DSIP : The optimal synergistic protocol is to use DSIP continuously for 12-16 weeks for complete circadian retraining, with a 20-day Epitalon cycle overlapped during weeks 4-7 of the DSIP protocol (when the circadian rhythm is already partially restored and the pineal gland can respond optimally to Epitalon).

PILLAR 3: Extinction of Inflammation and Construction of Microvascularization

BPC-157

• Dosage : As a peptide that acts as an "inflammation extinguisher and repair unit" by addressing the root of chronic fatigue (which is NOT just workload but "breathless" mitochondria due to systemic inflammation), promoting angiogenesis (literal building of new blood vessels restoring blood flow to hypoxic tissues - critical for foggy brain, sluggish gut, stressed heart), repairing intestinal lining (healing micro-tears that restore serotonin production in the enteric nervous system and balance the microbiome), and turning off chronic inflammation (by fixing leaky gut, the "greatest driver" of inflammatory processes that is a primary accelerator of aging is stopped), BPC-157 is fundamental in age reversal because low-grade systemic inflammation (inflammaging) is the common denominator of biological aging. In the context of anti-aging optimization, where systemic inflammation reduction is required to allow for optimal mitochondrial function, restoration of the intestinal barrier to optimize the gut-brain axis, and improvement of microcirculation for complete tissue oxygenation, a dose of 250–500 mcg per administration is recommended. For anti-aging prevention in relatively healthy individuals without documented severe inflammation (hsCRP <1 mg/L) or significant digestive symptoms, 250 mcg twice daily (total 500 mcg daily) may be appropriate. For individuals with established systemic inflammation (hsCRP >3 mg/L), documented or suspected leaky gut syndrome (chronic bloating, multiple food intolerances, post-meal brain fog), chronic joint or muscle pain (indicating low-grade inflammation), or fatigue unresponsive to rest (indicating mitochondrial dysfunction due to inflammation), the dose of 500 mcg twice daily (total 1000 mcg daily) provides more pronounced anti-inflammatory and reparative effects.

• Administration frequency : BPC-157 is administered by subcutaneous injection, typically twice daily for systemic anti-aging regeneration purposes. The optimal protocol is morning administration on an empty stomach (30-45 minutes before breakfast) and nighttime administration before bed (at least 2-3 hours after the last meal). Although BPC-157 has robust systemic effects that do not require local administration, for specific intestinal targets (leaky gut repair, which is critical for reducing systemic inflammation), some protocols consider subcutaneous injection in the periumbilical abdominal area based on the theory that it may provide increased local concentrations in the GI tract. However, this is not definitively established, and administration at any subcutaneous site is effective due to systemic distribution. Morning administration on an empty stomach allows the peptide to act on the intestine in a state of digestive quiescence, optimizing epithelial barrier repair, while the nighttime dose takes advantage of the regeneration window during sleep when the synthesis of structural proteins (tight junctions, epithelial cells) is maximized. Rotate injection sites appropriately to minimize local irritation.

• Cycle duration : For age reversal through the elimination of systemic inflammation, BPC-157 should be used continuously for 8-12 week cycles as an "inflammatory extinction" phase and intensive microvascular reconstruction. During this period, dramatic improvements are observed in multiple markers of biological aging: reduction of systemic inflammation (hsCRP can be reduced by 50-70%, inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-alpha decrease significantly), improvement of bowel function (resolution of bloating, normalization of transit, reduction of food sensitivities reflecting barrier repair), improvement of mental clarity (reduction of "brain fog" due to less neuroinflammation from the gut via the vagus nerve), increased energy (improved mitochondrial function due to reduced inflammatory stress), reduction of joint/muscle pain (elimination of low-grade inflammation), and improvement of skin quality (cutaneous angiogenesis improves oxygenation and dermal nutrition). After the initial 8-12 week cycle, a 4-6 week break is recommended to assess the durability of the anti-inflammatory improvements and intestinal repair achieved. Many users experience robustly persistent benefits due to genuine structural repair of the intestinal barrier (restored tight junctions, rebalanced microbiome) and a sustained reduction in systemic inflammatory burden. If regression occurs during the break (return of bloating, inflammation, fatigue), a second cycle may be indicated. For long-term use as part of an anti-aging strategy, active 8-12 week cycles followed by 4 weeks of rest can be repeated, or intermittent 6-8 week cycles can be used every 4-6 months as anti-inflammatory maintenance "pulses." SYNERGY WITH OTHER PILLARS : BPC-157 dramatically amplifies the effects of DSIP/Epitalon (reduced inflammation allows for better sleep and pineal function) and prepares the metabolic terrain for Retatrutide (intestinal inflammation blocked leptin signaling and insulin sensitivity - eliminating it allows Retatrutide to work optimally).

PILLAR 4: Metabolic Reprogramming and Obesity Reversal

Retatrutida

• Dosage : As the "ultimate trifecta" of metabolic reprogramming and the only triple agonist (GLP-1/GIP/Glucagon) that addresses obesity NOT as a cosmetic problem but a metabolic one (visceral fat blocks insulin, strangles mitochondria, releases inflammatory cytokines, hijacks leptin signaling creating a cycle of hunger and dysfunction), Retatrutide is critical in age reversal because obesity, particularly visceral fat, IS accelerated aging: it causes insulin resistance (direct pathway to type 2 diabetes and cognitive decline), chronic inflammation (visceral adipocytes secrete IL-6, TNF-alpha 24/7), mitochondrial dysfunction (free fatty acids saturate mitochondria), and complete hormonal dysregulation (aromatization of testosterone to estrogen, leptin resistance, elevated cortisol). Unlike semaglutide or tirzepatide, which can cause significant muscle loss, Retatrutide includes glucagon, which activates lipolysis (burning of stored fat) while preserving lean muscle mass through signaling that favors fatty acid oxidation over protein catabolism. GLP-1 increases satiety and reduces gastric emptying (you eat less, feel full longer), GIP improves insulin sensitivity and reduces fat storage (redirecting nutrients to muscle instead of adipocytes), and glucagon activates aggressive lipolysis (mobilizing fat from visceral and subcutaneous deposits). This is NOT "weight loss by suppression" but metabolic reprogramming that makes cells function as they did in youth, reversing obesity at the cellular level. In the context of age reversal through the elimination of pathological visceral fat and the restoration of metabolic sensitivity, it is recommended to start with an extremely conservative dose of 2-4 mg administered once a week for the first 4 weeks for gastrointestinal adaptation and response assessment. After 4 weeks, if tolerance is excellent and fat loss is suboptimal, increase to 4-6 mg weekly. For significant obesity (BMI >30, elevated visceral fat documented by DEXA or bioimpedance) or severe insulin resistance (HOMA-IR >3, HbA1c >5.7%), more aggressive protocols may use 6-8 mg weekly, although this dosage should be reserved for users with established tolerance and monthly monitoring of metabolic markers.

• Frequency of administration : Retatrutide is administered by subcutaneous injection once a week, preferably on the same day each week for stable plasma levels. Because it can cause transient nausea, particularly during initial titration, many users prefer to administer it on Friday or Saturday night so that adverse GI effects occur over the weekend. Administration can be independent of meals, although taking it after a light meal may reduce nausea. Rotate injection sites weekly (abdomen, thighs, buttocks) to minimize irritation and optimize absorption.

• Cycle duration : Retatrutide can be used continuously for extended cycles of 16-24 weeks in the context of anti-aging metabolic reversal. During this period, dramatic transformations are observed: loss of visceral fat (30-50% reduction measurable by DEXA or bioimpedance), preservation or increase of lean muscle mass (unlike other GLP-1 agonists, the glucagon component protects muscle), reversal of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR can be reduced by >50%, HbA1c can be normalized to <5.5%), dramatic improvement of lipid profile (triglycerides reduced by 30-50%, HDL increased), reduction of inflammatory markers (hsCRP can be reduced by 40-60% reflecting less cytokine secretion from visceral fat), improvement of cognitive function (reversal of cerebral insulin resistance that causes "brain fog" and predicts Alzheimer's), optimization of mitochondrial function (lower saturation of free fatty acids allows for efficient mitochondrial respiration), and improvement of virtually all biomarkers of biological aging. CRITICAL : After the 16-24 week active cycle, meticulous tapering is essential—the dose should be reduced in 50% steps every 2-3 weeks before discontinuing to minimize metabolic rebound. During the taper and subsequent 4-8 week break, strict adherence to dietary patterns that support insulin sensitivity is absolutely critical: net carbs <100g daily, adequate protein 1.6-2g/kg, and a minimum 16:8 intermittent fasting schedule. After the break, if metabolic markers are optimized, restarting may not be necessary; if regression occurs, a second cycle at maintenance dosage can be implemented. ANTI-AGING SYNERGY : Retatrutide is the final component that consolidates the effects of the other three pillars - DSIP optimized sleep that allows nocturnal lipolysis, Epitalon restored hormonal rhythm that regulates metabolism, BPC-157 eliminated inflammation that blocked leptin and insulin signaling, and now Retatrutide executes the complete metabolic reprogramming by taking advantage of this optimized terrain.

NON-NEGOTIABLE PRINCIPLES: The "Original Software" of the Biological Operating System

ELIMINATION OF "TOXIC INPUTS" THAT CORRUPT THE SYSTEM

Sugars and Refined Carbohydrates - The Metabolic Corruptors:

• Completely eliminate: Table sugar, high fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners (aspartame, sucralose - maintain sugar addiction), sugary drinks, juices, white bread, pasta, white rice, baked goods
• These cause glucose/insulin spikes that: glycate proteins (formation of AGEs that stiffen tissues), promote visceral fat storage, create insulin resistance, increase inflammation, and damage mitochondria.
• Prefer: Very limited complex carbohydrates (<100g net daily), fibrous vegetables, low-sugar fruits (small portions of berries)

Industrial Seed Oils - The Systemic Inflammators:

• Eliminate: Soybeans, canola, sunflower, corn, safflower, cottonseed, "vegetable oil" - all rich in oxidized omega-6 that gets incorporated into cell membranes and is oxidized in situ, causing inflammation
• Use only: Extra virgin olive oil, coconut, avocado, traditional animal fats (grass-fed tallow, lard, ghee)

Endocrine Disruptors - Hormonal Desynchronizers:

• Plastics (BPA, phthalates): Use glass/stainless steel for food and beverages; do not heat in plastic.
• Personal care products: Parabens, triclosan, synthetic fragrances - use "clean beauty"
• Pesticides: Buy organic for the "dirty dozen"
• Water: Filter (removes chlorine, fluoride, heavy metals, pharmaceutical residues)

Artificial Night Light - The Circadian Rhythm Destroyer:

• Post-sunset blue light suppresses endogenous melatonin, desynchronizing the SCN
• Eliminate: Screens 2h before sleep (or use blue light blocking glasses, apps like f.lux)
• Use: Amber/red lighting after sunset, candles, Himalayan salt lamps
• Sleeping: TOTAL darkness (blackout curtains, tape over LEDs, eye mask)

Unmanaged Chronic Stress - The Accelerator of Aging:

• Chronically elevated cortisol: Causes insulin resistance, visceral fat accumulation, sarcopenia, immunosuppression, telomere shortening
• Implement: Meditation 10-20 min daily, diaphragmatic breathing (4-7-8, heart coherence), yoga, contact with nature 30+ min daily

OPTIMAL DIETARY PROTOCOL - ACTIVATING AUTOPHAGY AND MITOPHAGY

Cyclical Ketogenic or Low Carbohydrate Diet:

• Target macros:
  • Net carbs: <50g daily (strict ketosis) or <100g (low carb)
  • Protein: 1.6-2.2 g/kg body weight (preserve muscle)
  • Healthy fats: 60-75% of calories (omega-3, monounsaturated)
• Anti-aging benefits:
  • Ketosis induces autophagy (cellular cleaning of damaged components)
  • Ketone bodies are a superior mitochondrial fuel (less ROS than glucose)
  • Optimized insulin sensitivity
  • Reduced systemic inflammation

Intermittent Fasting (Critical for Activating Longevity):

• Minimum 16:8 pattern (8h feeding window, 16h fasting)
• Optimal window: 12 PM - 8 PM (allows extended overnight fasting that maximizes autophagy)
• Benefits:
  • Maximized autophagy (cleaning of misfolded proteins, dysfunctional organelles)
  • Mitophagy (recycling of old mitochondria, biogenesis of new ones)
  • Elevated NAD+ (anti-aging coenzyme)
  • Activation of sirtuins (longevity genes)
  • Improved insulin sensitivity
• Progression: After adapting to 16:8, consider 18:6, 20:4, or OMAD (one meal a day)
• Extended weekly fasting: 24-36 hours once a week dramatically amplifies autophagy

Specific Anti-Aging Foods:

Polyphenols (Sirtuin Activators):

• Dark berries: Blueberries, blackberries, raspberries - anthocyanins protect neurons and endothelium
• Cocoa 85%+: Flavonoids improve cognitive and cardiovascular function - 20-30g daily
• Green tea (matcha): EGCG activates AMPK and autophagy - 2-3 cups daily
• Extra virgin olive oil: Oleocanthal is a powerful anti-inflammatory - 30-50ml daily
• Red wine (extreme moderation): Resveratrol activates sirtuins - maximum 1 glass 2-3 times/week, or better yet, supplement with resveratrol directly

Omega-3 Fats (Anti-inflammatory and Neuroprotective):

• Wild fatty fish: Salmon, sardines, anchovies, herring - 3-4 times/week (EPA/DHA 2-3g daily)
• Supplementation: Pharmaceutical grade fish oil 2-3g EPA+DHA if dietary intake is insufficient

High Quality Proteins (Muscle Preservation):

• Grass-fed meats: Grass-fed beef, lamb, bison (superior omega-3 profile)
• Organic poultry: Chicken, pasture-raised turkey
• Pasture-raised eggs: Rich in choline (neuroprotective), fat-soluble vitamins
• Distribute protein: 30-40g per meal (maximizes muscle protein synthesis via pulsatile, non-chronic mTOR)

Cruciferous Vegetables (Detoxification and Nrf2 Activation):

• Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, kale, cauliflower: Sulforaphane activates Nrf2 (transcription factor that up-regulates antioxidant enzymes) - minimum 1-2 servings daily

Methionine Restriction (Life Extension in Models):

• Moderation of animal proteins rich in methionine (red meats)
• Emphasis on protein sources low in methionine (fish, poultry, select vegetable proteins)

STRUCTURED EXERCISE - ANTI-AGING HORMETIC STIMULUS

Resistance Training (Muscle Preservation and Hormesis):

• Frequency: 3-4 sessions per week
• Sarcopenia (muscle loss) accelerates aging - muscle is an endocrine organ that secretes anti-aging myokines
• Protocol:
  • Compound movements: Squat, deadlift, press, row, pull-ups
  • Volume: 3-4 sets, 8-12 repetitions (hypertrophy)
  • Intensity: Progressive (increase load 2.5-5% when perfect form allows)
  • Tempo: 2-3 sec eccentric (downward phase - more hormetic stimulus)
• Anti-aging benefits:
  • Preserves/increases muscle mass (maintenance of metabolic rate)
  • Improves insulin sensitivity
  • Stimulates the release of BDNF (neurotrophic factor - neuroprotection)
  • Activates AMPK and muscle autophagy

Cardiovascular Exercise (Mitochondrial and Metabolic):

• LISS (Low Intensity Steady State): 3-5 weekly sessions, 30-45 min, 60-70% MHR
  • Brisk walking, swimming, gentle cycling
  • Maximizes fat oxidation, mitochondrial biogenesis
• HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training): 1-2 sessions per week (NO more - excess raises cortisol)
  • 20-30 sec sprint, 90-120 sec recovery, 6-8 rounds
  • Stimulates endogenous GH production, improves VO2 max (a marker of longevity)

Excessive Exercise Restriction:

• Overtraining causes: Chronic elevation of cortisol, inflammation, oxidative stress, telomere shortening
• Optimal volume: 4-6 total hours per week (resistance + cardio)
• Recovery: 1-2 full days of rest per week

OPTIMIZATION OF SUN EXPOSURE AND VITAMIN D

Morning Sun Exposure (Circadian Synchronization):

• 10-30 min within the first hour after waking up
• Without sunglasses (light must reach the retina to activate the SCN)
• Benefits: Synchronizes master clock, suppresses residual morning melatonin, and schedules appropriate nighttime peak.

Vitamin D3 (Pleiotropic Anti-Aging Hormone):

• Dosage: 5,000-10,000 IU daily (adjust according to serum levels)
• Target: 60-80 ng/ml (optimal for longevity, much higher than the "sufficiency" of 30 ng/ml)
• Co-supplement: Vitamin K2-MK7 100-200 mcg (directs calcium to bones, prevents arterial calcification)
• Benefits: Immune modulation, cancer prevention, cardiovascular health, neuroprotection

BASE ANTI-AGING NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTATION

NAD+ Precursors (Mitochondrial Energy Restoration):

• NMN or NR: 500-1000 mg daily on an empty stomach
• NAD+ declines by 50% by age 50 - replenishment restores mitochondrial function, activates sirtuins

Resveratrol (Sirtuin Activator):

• Dosage: 500-1000 mg daily with fats (improves bioavailability)
• Synergy with NAD+ precursors - activates SIRT1 (longevity gene)

**Quercetin + Fiseti

na (Senolytics):**

• Quercetin: 500-1000 mg daily
• Fisetin: 100-500 mg daily (or 1000-2000 mg 2 consecutive days monthly as pulse senolytic)
• They eliminate senescent cells (zombie cells that secrete inflammatory factors)

Spermidine (Autophagy Inducer):

• Dosage: 1-3 mg daily
• It mimics caloric restriction and induces autophagy.

Magnesium (Cofactor of >300 Enzymes):

• Dose: 400-600 mg (glycinate, threonate, malate)
• Critical for mitochondrial function, ATP synthesis, relaxation

MONITORING AND EVALUATION OF PROGRESS

Biological Age Biomarkers (Baseline, Week 12, Post-Protocol):

Body Composition:

• DEXA scan: % body fat, lean mass, visceral fat, bone density
• Goal: Visceral fat reduction >30%, preservation/increase of lean mass

Metabolic Markers:

• Fasting glucose: Target <85 mg/dL
• Fasting insulin: Target <5 μU/mL (optimum <3)
• HOMA-IR: Target <1.0 (optimal insulin sensitivity)
• HbA1c: Target <5.3%
• Lipid profile: LDL-P <1000 nmol/L, HDL >60 mg/dL, TG <70 mg/dL, TG/HDL <1

Inflammatory Markers:

• hsCRP: Target <0.5 mg/L (optimal <0.3)
• IL-6, TNF-alpha (if available): Should be reduced >50%

Hormonal:

• Salivary cortisol 4 points: Healthy descending pattern (morning peak, nighttime nadir)
• IGF-1: Youth functional range (180-250 ng/mL) without exceeding
• Sex hormones: Testosterone, estradiol within optimal ranges

Cognitive Function:

• Neuropsychological tests: Memory, processing speed, executive function
• Objective: Measurable improvement in all dimensions

Sleep Quality:

• Polysomnography or advanced tracker: % time in deep sleep, REM, latency, efficiency
• Target: Deep sleep >20%, REM >20%, sleep latency <15 min, efficiency >90%

Telomere Length (Optional but Valuable):

• Commercial test (TeloYears, RepeatDx)
• Objective: Stabilization or elongation after Epitalon

Success Criteria (Biological Age Reversal):

• Visceral fat reduced >40%
• HOMA-IR <1.0, HbA1c <5.3%
• hsCRP <0.5 mg/L
• Deep sleep >20% of total
• Subjective energy 8-10/10 (scale)
• Optimal mental clarity (zero mental fog)
• Biomarkers in ranges 10-20 years younger than chronological age

CRITICAL WARNINGS

Contraindications:

• Active cancer (peptides stimulate cell growth)
• Pregnancy/breastfeeding (safety not established)
• Severe uncontrolled mental illness (hormonal changes can affect mood)

Interactions:

• Antidiabetic drugs + Retatrutide: Risk of hypoglycemia - adjust dose
• Sedatives + DSIPs: Additive effects - caution

Medical Monitoring:

• Users with chronic conditions should be monitored.
• Do not discontinue prescribed medication without medical approval.

CONCLUSION: FROM CORRUPTION TO RESTORATION

Aging is NOT inevitable. It is the result of a biological operating system corrupted by decades of "toxic inputs": inflammatory diet, chronic stress, environmental toxins, artificial light, sedentary lifestyle, and medications that suppress symptoms.

This 4-pillar protocol restores the "original software":

1. DSIP resets the master circadian clock (SCN), restoring the hormonal cascade that governs EVERYTHING
2. Epitalon reactivates the pineal gland (endogenous melatonin) and protects telomeres (cellular longevity)
3. BPC-157 extinguishes systemic inflammation (the primary accelerator of aging) and rebuilds microvascularization
4. Retatrutida completely reprograms metabolism, reversing obesity from the cellular root

Combined with fundamental principles (ketogenic diet, fasting, exercise, sleep, stress management), these 4 peptides can transform biological age in 100 days.

You are not destined to "age, rot, or fall apart." Your body knows exactly what to do.

Give it the correct inputs. Repair the software. Activate the signaling pathways.

And watch as your life becomes unrecognizable.

Wake up with real energy. Sleep soundly. Burn fat like a nitro dragster. Think clearly.

To live biologically free.

The clock isn't ticking. You just stopped listening to it.

It's time to reset.
