L-Carnosine | 305-84-0
Product Description:
Carnosine (L-Carnosine), scientific name β-alanyl-L-histidine, is a dipeptide composed of β-alanine and L-histidine, a crystalline solid. Muscle and brain tissue contain very high concentrations of carnosine. Carnosine was discovered by Russian chemist Gurevich along with carnitine.
Studies in the United Kingdom, South Korea, Russia and other countries have shown that carnosine has strong antioxidant capacity and is beneficial to the human body.
Carnosine has been shown to scavenge reactive oxygen radicals (ROS) and α-β unsaturated aldehydes formed during oxidative stress by overoxidizing fatty acids in cell membranes.
Regulation of immunity:
It has the effect of regulating immunity, and can regulate the diseases of patients with hyperimmunity or hypoimmunity.
Carnosine can play a very good role in regulating the construction of the human immune barrier, whether it is cellular immunity or humoral immunity.
Endocrine:
Carnosine can also maintain the endocrine balance of the human body. In the case of endocrine and metabolic diseases, proper supplementation of carnosine can regulate the endocrine level in the body.
Nourish the body:
Carnosine also has a certain role in nourishing the body, which can nourish the human brain tissue, improve the growth of brain neurotransmitters, and nourish nerve endings, which can nourish neurons and nourish nerves.
