Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

It's a tripeptide that meets the groove of the DNA of different key regions and helps the promoter region be exposed so then that DNA transduction can happen, translation transcription.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

So it's turning on genetic programs.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

Yeah, yeah, almost like that, or maybe assisting transcription factors in accessing the DNA in the right places.

So pinelon, in one sentence, it's leading to better brain metabolism through modulating all of these different pathways.

Huberman Lab

For example, GDF11, SOD1, SOD2, irisin, PPR alpha, PPR gamma.

So what seems to be happening, so he made pinelon as an anti-stress cognitive performance compound.

and it was available orally in like Kazakhstan.

So I'm an idiot.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

I'm taking it before sleep.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

I should be taking it in the morning.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

Yes.

So if you take a high enough dose, there is sedation from it.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

But if you take it in the morning or pre-hit workout, you get quite an interesting effect.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

So he studied this compound on athletes, and he would have them do their training session, go to exhaustion, and then do a test afterwards.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

And there's two groups, Pinelon and the placebo.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

The Pinelon group could keep their performance up

despite being maximally exhausted from their training.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

So a lot of people report less brain fog, better thinking.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

There's a friend that has a nine-figure company.

Huberman Lab
Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

He has all of his employees on Pinellon.
