Our anti-aging supplement contains 500 mg of carnosine, a naturally occurring antioxidant, to support healthy aging and exercise recovery and to inhibit glycation.
Carnosine is a dipeptide that can interfere with the glycation process, an underlying mechanism of aging that causes damage to the body's proteins. Glycation is the random, non-enzyme-controlled cross-linking of proteins or lipids with sugars to form non-functioning structures in the body.
The process of glycation can contribute to wrinkled skin. Carnosine has shown the ability to inhibit formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs).1
Protects muscle cell membranes
Muscle levels of carnosine correlate with the maximum life spans of animals.2,3 While muscle cells (myocytes) contain high levels of carnosine, those levels decline with age.4 Muscle levels decline 63 percent from age 10 to age 70, which may account for the normal age-related decline in muscle mass and function.4
Carnosine may also support heart muscle function by modulating calcium signaling in heart muscle cells.5 These benefits make carnosine an essential part of your comprehensive nutritional regimen.
Actual Size
Carnosine is a compound made of two amino acids. It occurs naturally in our bodies and has powerful healthy aging properties. Unfortunately, levels of carnosine decline with age, making supplementing important for maintaining whole-body health.
Carnosine has powerful antioxidant properties that support healthy aging. This 500 mg formula helps you make sure you’re getting enough.
Carnosine’s antioxidant properties extend to your muscles, too. This compound promotes healthy exercise recovery and protects hard-working muscles.
Glycation is a normal, but undesirable process that can impact your health over time. Carnosine helps inhibit this process and its byproducts.
Our formulators hold advanced degrees and use the latest research to decide on the optimal dosages.
