Description
Carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine) is a dipeptide of the amino acids beta-alanine and histidine. It is highly concentrated in skeletal muscles, heart muscles and brain tissue.
Carnosine has the remarkable ability to rejuvenate cells approaching senescence (the end of the life cycle of dividing cells), helping support normal appearance and cellular lifespan. As an antioxidant, carnosine effectively helps to neutralize the most destructive of free radicals; the hydroxyl radical, superoxide, singlet oxygen, and the peroxyl radical.
Carnosine may contain antioxidant properties that help support the functional life of the body's key building blocks; cells, proteins, DNA, and lipids.
