How This Works

Livagen’s mechanisms involve peptidase inhibition and epigenetic modulation. The peptide strongly inhibits enkephalin-degrading enzymes (IC50 ≈ 20 μM) in human serum[1], which may prolong endogenous enkephalin activity. Notably, this occurs without direct opioid receptor binding[1]. In aging cells, Livagen has been shown to induce heterochromatin decondensation and reactivate ribosomal genes[4]. Preclinical studies in rat liver organ cultures demonstrated enhanced cellular structure and regenerative processes[3], while oral preparation in aged rats shifted digestive enzyme activities toward youthful patterns[2].

CoreVials Standard Mix

For a 20mg vial Add 1mL BAC Water
Final concentration 20mg/mL

After mixing (U-100 syringe reference)

  • 5 units=1mg
  • 10 units=2mg
  • 20 units=4mg

These are example measurement calculations only. They are not dosing, administration, medical, or veterinary guidance.

Other Mix Options
BAC Added Final Concentration 0.5mg Equals 1mg Equals
1mL CoreVials Standard Mix 20mg/mL 2.5 units 5 units
2mL 10mg/mL 5 units 10 units
3mL 6.67mg/mL 7.5 units 15 units
