" Discontinued Carnosine has important cardiovascular properties, is important for maintaining neurological health, as well as preventing and aiding problems related to aging.
Carnosine can inhibit glycosylation (glycation), which is one of the primary causes of aging. Glycation is the result of metabolism in which sugar aldehydes react with amino acids resulting in oxidized molecules and abnormal proteins.
Because of this, Carnosine may be helpful in preventing diabetic complications and in age related problems such as dementia, cataracts, and atherosclerosis.
A powerful antioxidant it scavenges harmful free radicals (such as peroxyl radicals) protecting healthy cells, including the endothelial cells, from free radical damage. It also protects against lipid peroxidation. Carnosine further protects by preventing toxicity from compounds that have invaded the cells and have formed dangerous chemicals, including aldehydes and malondialdegyde (MDA). MDA can cause damage to DNA and result in aging.
By being an aldehyde scavenger, it prohibits age pigmentation (lipofuscin) and may have an effect on inhibiting wrinkles.
L-Carnosine releases Calcium and by acts as a modulator of calcium-regulated proteins in the cardiac muscle cells, and helps protect the cardiovascular system from free radical damage.
