Rat studies have shown benefit for premature aging when epithalon was combined with melatonin. Specifically the Russian scientists Korenevsky, et al, studied estrogen cycles in young, mature, and aging female rats in light polluted environments (eg, little darkness, which is typically necessary for melatonin production). Using a combination of epithalon and melatonin they were able to stabilize and correct a variety of impairments of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, which specifically overcame adverse environmental influences. [2] This is particularly important to consider given the urban human environment, as some studies have shown light pollution to increase cancer risks. [3, 4, 5]
