L-Carnosine

Product ID: ES220


Description:

L-Carnosine: 500mg: THE ULTIMATE LONGEVITY SUPPLEMENT

L-Carnosine supports healthy aging and cellular rejuvenation by its effects on two mechanisms: Glycosylation and Free Radical Damage. Glycosylation is the oxidation of proteins by glucose resulting in cross-linking of proteins and which is implicated in loss of cell function, genome integrity and accelerated aging.
L Carnosine also protects the aging process of the brain by retarding lipid peroxidation and stabilizing cell membranes.

Details:

Discovered more than a century ago in Russian cultures, L-Carnosine has been used as a natural form of energy booster for athletes for a number of years. It is considered to be an antioxidant; therefore, there are many important benefits of L-carnosine.

Carnosine is found in relatively high concentrations in several body tissues—most notably in skeletal muscle, heart muscle, nerve tissue and brain. The exact biological role of carnosine is not well understood, but many studies indicate that carnosine has antioxidant potential. Carnosine may also act as a neurotransmitter (chemical messenger in the nervous system). Carnosine generates nitric oxide better than arginine. Nitric oxide helps dilate blood vessels.

Carnosine has been called a longevity nutrient since laboratory studies on tissues indicate that it can delay senescence and provoke cellular rejuvenation in cultured human fibroblasts. Carnosine has been called the anti-aging and anti-oxidant dipeptide.

L-carnosine works at its best along with other vitamins and nutrients, such as vitamin E. As an antioxidant it has capabilities of destroying free radicals contained within the body that can lead to cancer development. It also protects important elements within the body from being attacked and destroyed by excessive amounts of sugar and protein.

Many serious health issues have been linked to the destruction of DNA by atypical amounts of sugar and protein including heart disease, diabetes and dementia.

Further possible benefits of L-carnosine include the ability to reduce the appearance of aging in skin, and muscles as a person gets older, and may even contribute towards healthier sexual effectiveness.

Ongoing research indicates that it may also have several advantageous benefits in the treatment of such neurological disorders as Parkinson’s disease, autism and the effects of stroke.

Other conditions that may benefit from L-carnosine supplements include dyslexia and ADHD.

Research indicates that there are no known side effects related to the supplementation of L-carnosine.

It is recommended that in order to receive the full maximum benefits of L-carnosine that it be taken with vitamin E. When the two are combined the body is generally able to absorb and better use the two nutrients.
