Livagen
Animal studies onlyAlmost all the research is in animals. We do not know if the same thing happens in people.
A short peptide from Russian research, studied in animals for immune and blood effects.
The basics
- What is it?
- Livagen is one of the Khavinson short peptides. Nearly all published work is animal or cell research from a small number of Russian groups.
