| Description
of L-Carnosine |
 |
L-Carnosine is classified as a dipeptide, which is a combination of two amino acids, in this case alanine and histidine. It naturally occurs in high concentrations in skeletal muscle tissue, and therefore may support muscle vitality. L-Carnosine is also an antioxidant that stabilizes cellular membranes, protecting them from damage by free radicals. Because L-Carnosine is only found in vertebrates, it is especially important for persons who do not consume beef, pork or chicken.

Information for L-Carnosine |
 |
| L-Carnosine is actually a combination of two amino acids, in this case alanine and histidine. This naturally-occuring substance has multiple functions in this body, the most remarkable of which is its ability to rejuvenate cells close to the end of their life-cycle (a state called senescence), revitalizing their appearance and increasing their span. L-Carosine is also a potent antioxidant that is able to protect proteins from several different forms of protein modification, including oxidation and carbonylation (the breakdown of protein cell membranes, leading to early cell death). Research shows that destructive changes to proteins over a normal lifespan significantly contribute to aging and the signs of aging, such as wrinkle skin and decreased cognitive function. Which means Carosine may Enhance to maintain youthful vigor and appearance. |

Reviewer: Glenda Parrott |

| I have been taking you L-Carnosine, 500mg. for a couple of months. It has helped in stopping the pain in my hands and in my muscles. Do you carry it in a l00% pure powder? I have had to go to great extremes to find it in a powder form and have found a place I can get it from in Swizerland. Yesterday, I visited a health food store that carries a lot of your products but they didn't even carry your L-Carnosine. So, I had to go to another health food store to get it. Thank you for your much needed answer. Glenda Parrott |
