L-Carnosine - 100 capsules x 500mg

What is L-Carnosine?

L-Carnosine is a chemical compound that occurs naturally in the human body. Most L-carnosine is found in the muscles but also in the stomach, kidneys, heart and brain. The body produces L-carnosine from two amino acids, beta-alanine and histidine. We get certain amounts of this amino acid through food, but these amounts are quickly broken down by the enzyme carnosine and have no chance of fulfilling their biological function. It is assumed that only L-carnosine supplied in larger amounts in the form of a supplement can reach the cells because it is only partially broken down.

What is L-Carnosine good for?

L-Carnosine acts as a strong antioxidant that protects our cells and helps fight free radicals in the body. Its antioxidant properties can also help prevent aging and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.

Studies have shown that this amino acid can be particularly beneficial for athletes and people who exercise regularly as it can help improve muscle strength and endurance.

L-Carnosine can also help to lower blood pressure and improve blood circulation, which in turn can have positive effects on cardiovascular health.

L-Carnosine may also have a protective effect on the brain and nervous system, which may be beneficial in preventing neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.

We get certain amounts of L-Carnosine through food. Red meat, chicken and fish contain this amino acid but these amounts may be insufficient therefore it can also be taken as a dietary supplement in the form of capsules or powder.

The product is suitable for vegans and vegetarians and contains no fillers or preservatives.
