Thymagen vs Ovagen

Side-by-side comparison of key properties, dosing, and research.

Immune Support
Thymagen
Anti-Aging & Longevity
Ovagen
Summary
Thymagen is a dipeptide bioregulator (Glu-Asp) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson, tissue-specific for the thymus gland. It supports T-lymphocyte maturation, thymic function, and immune system normalization. As the thymus involutes with age (thymic atrophy), immune competence declines. Thymagen is used to support immune restoration, particularly in aging, post-illness recovery, and immunodeficiency states.
Ovagen is a tripeptide bioregulator (Glu-Asp-Leu) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson, primarily targeting liver tissue. It supports hepatocyte function, liver cell regeneration, and protection against hepatic aging and disease. Ovagen is used in protocols for chronic liver disease, hepatoprotection, and metabolic liver conditions including fatty liver disease.
