Is Endoluten legal in Canada?
Written by Aaron CuhaReviewed Sep 2026
Direct answer
Endoluten can be sold in Canada as a supplement or cosmetic ingredient. Its legal category is "Sold as a supplement". That is not approval as a drug. Health Canada has not checked any health claim made for it. Versions you inject, and "research use only" versions, fall outside supplement rules, so that label does not make them legal to use in people. On the evidence, no completed trial in people is cited on its profile (3 human records with no result or no dose given).

Legal category
Sold as a supplement
Sold as a supplement. We found no Health Canada product licence for the pineal extracts behind it.
Reviewed Sep 2026. This is a legal category, not legal advice.
A "research use only" label on a vial does not make it legal to use on people.

What this means
- 01
Endoluten can be sold in Canada as a supplement, food or cosmetic ingredient, under the legal category above. It has no approval as a drug.
- 02
Being sold as a supplement means Health Canada has not checked any health claim. The makers are responsible for safety and labels, and quality varies from product to product.
- 03
Versions you inject, and "research use only" versions, are not supplements. That label does not make them legal to use in people, and anything you inject falls under the rules for medicines.
What Endoluten is
A pineal gland capsule sold on the long-life claims of two other products. A PubMed search for Endoluten finds zero papers. Every lifespan and death-rate number tied to it came from epithalamin, an extract of cow pineal gland, or from epitalon, a lab-made peptide. Nobody has shown that either one is what is in the capsule.
Endoluten is one of the most heavily marketed products in the Khavinson shop line. It is sold as a pineal gland mix for sleep, body rhythms and long life.
How it works: How it would work is borrowed, not shown. In people, a separate Russian pineal product called Pineamin was given to 55 older patients.
Approval history: Not approved and not reviewed. Sold as a dietary supplement in the United States. The published data come from pineal gland extracts made as Russian medicines. Those are not approved in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia or Canada.
How Health Canada treats this kind of product
Allows a drug to be sold by issuing a Notice of Compliance and a Drug Identification Number (DIN). A compound that is not allowed for sale cannot legally be sold for use in people. Bringing in prescription drugs for your own use is also limited.
The legal category above is how The Longevity Archive reads Health Canada, Health Products and Food Branch listings for Endoluten on the reviewed date. It is not a legal opinion. Rules change. Bringing a compound into the country, prescribing it and owning it can each be treated differently. Check with the agency before you act on anything here.
Endoluten in sport and the military
Whether Endoluten is banned in sport is set by the World Anti-Doping Code and by military rules, not by its legal status in Canada. Before you compete or get tested, look up Endoluten by name on the Prohibited List, or look up a named product in Global DRO. Under the World Anti-Doping Code, category S0 bans, at all times, any drug-like substance that meets two tests. No other section of the List covers it. And no government health regulator anywhere has a current approval for it as a treatment in people. Many substances that are approved somewhere are banned by name in another section. So approval does not mean a substance is allowed in sport.
