I have pasted some questions I sent to IAS regarding the peptides below, The responses from IAS are shown in green. Note their response to question 4 below regarding the size of the peptides and statement that there is no possibility of the presence of prions. Do you guys agree ? Does anyone have experience with synthetic versus natural peptides ? With synthetic, prions would not be an issue. I read that pineal gland and thymus peptides might be best for general anti-aging.
If peptide levels can be restored in specific organs, I wonder how long it will last & what controls the rate of decline ?
I found a site at https://www.peptidesstore.com where they say they will beat any price you find by 5%. I emailed them with questions about their company, response shown directly below. Has anyone purchased from this company before and were you satasified with the service ?
From Peptidesstore.com:
Our company (6 years) is based in Tallinn, Estonia, but the products to the U.S. are shipped from Moscow, Russia. We have been selling online since September, 2013. We have a direct affiliation with St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology (Professor Khavinson is its director)Shipping cost to the U.S. is 15 eur and delivery time is usually 2 weeks.

1. I quickly looked at the Russian Professors website at the link directly above, (the professor who's research is behind the product) , but what is the best evidence for effectiveness and safety ?
If you go on the IAS website for the Peptide Bioregulators, the article page lists a number of the Institutes and Professor Khavinson’s articles on the peptides, www.antiaging-systems.com/250-peptide-bioregulators, including summaries of clinical case studies, the role of peptides in nutrition and the safety of natural peptide bioregulators. There is also a list of their patents and published articles that can be found on PubMed.
2. If the peptides are instructing DNA and cells, what if something goes wrong and it produces a mutation or cancer ? I don't know how likely that might be or if it could even happen at all ? Please comment.
The peptides developed by the Institute have a long scientific history and profound research has been conducted in many different laboratories and institutions, especially in regard to their safety. Their safety has been double confirmed, at the N.N. Petrov Research Institute of Oncology in particular in long-term animal experiment. Moreover, the peptide (in experiments) prevented development of spontaneous and induced malignant tumours.
The Institute also adds that the peptides are completely toxicity free. Even no LD was found. The peptides cannot induce any mutations, just opposite, they regulate correct synthesis of protein in the cells.
3. How many people have used the product worldwide and for how long ? When was the product first sold on the market and how long has IAA been selling the product ?
Over 15 million people got peptides in total during 25 years. The first publications on peptides appeared in the 70-ies and they were primarily used in military medicine starting from late 80-ies - early 90-ies( medications Thymalin, Thymogen, Epithalamin, Cortexin, etc)
The peptides we are talking about (Cytomaxes) originate from them. There was also a 15-year long published clinical study which was conducted at the Gerontological Institute of the Ukrainian Academy of Medical Sciences whose results (with respect to the WHO standards) showed the efficacy of peptides for the elderly whose mortality in the study group decreased almost twice.
IAS has been selling the Peptide Bioregulators™ for four years.
4. Is it important that the peptides are extracted from young animals ? It's probably not a problem with Testoluten, but if the peptides were extracted from brain or nervous system tissue, (As might be the case with other peptides sold under the same brand name) I might be a little concerned about Prions and Mad Cow disease, but if the animals are grass fed then perhaps that would not be such an issue. Please comment.
First and foremost in this respect, is that molecular weight of these peptides is below 10 000 dt. It excludes every possibility of any prions presence.
Please find attached pdf’s of the certificates.
5. Has anyone at IAA actually used this product ? Can you tell me their experiences ? How did it make them feel, did it increase energy, libido, better mood, etc. ?
Yes, a number of the peptides have been used by staff and family members of IAS staff, including the muscle, cartilage and thymus peptides. We have also had very positive feedback from our healthcare practitioner’s including the use of the brain peptide to treat bi-polar disorder and Glandokort for the Adrenal glands.
6. Can different peptides be taken at the same time, for example, testoluten, Ventfort® and Libidon®, (do they compete with each other as amino acids can) or is it best to use one at a time ?
Yes, you may take a combination of peptides simultaneously but it is advised that they are all for treating the same condition rather than two or more different conditions. Thus Ventfort (blood) peptide is often recommended in combination with another peptide as it improves blood flow and so helps to improve the amount of the second peptide that reaches the targeted organ or gland. Taking the combination that you propose should not be an issue although if you are looking to treat the testes then Testoluten and Ventfort may be all that is required.
7. What type of quality control is employed when manufacturing the product and selecting the raw materials ? I do not know anything about Russia or what type of regulations they have, or what their quality standards are.
The manufacturing facility is GMP certified and the quality of the primary ingredient is covered by the attached certificates.
8. Is the structure of the specific regulators the same as those that occur in the body ? I am asking this since the peptides are extracted from animals. Does the peptide source determine how the human body responds to the peptides ?
The peptides contained in the bodies of mammals are absolutely identical. The technological process of their extraction and purification provides their safety and non-specificity.
The human body recognizes the peptide as its own irrespective of the animal source and receives it as a signal to normalize the function of a respective organ due to improvement of protein synthesis.
I would appreciate any additional info you can provide about testoluten and these peptide products in general, I would like to learn all I can. I can just try the product and see if I feel and see results but the product is expensive, so I want to be reasonably certain I will feel or see some Positive affect If I use it. However, the big issue for me is to make sure the product is safe to use.
The web page referred to above has a number of articles about the use of and benefits of the peptides. Please remember that over 15 million people have used these peptides in Russia and the former USSR, and that research into these peptides has not just been conducted in Russia but in the EU and USA as well.
When taking the peptides the aim is to be on a maintenance dose of 1 pack of 20 capsules for 10 days, (ie 2 capsules per day), every 4 to 6 months. However, when first taking the peptides an intensive or very intensive course of peptides may be required, depending upon the severity of the condition being treated. The intensive course is 2 capsules a day for 30 days and very intensive is 4 capsules a day for 30 days. After this a break of 4 to 6 weeks is normally allowed for to assess the effect of the peptides and then there may be a repeat course or a less intense course of peptides. The goal being to come down to the maintenance course dose.
