L-Carnosine

What is L-Carnosine?   

Carnosine (L-Carnosine), scientifically known as β-alanyl-L-histidine, is a dipeptide composed of β-alanine and L-histidine, and is a crystalline solid. Muscle and brain tissues contain high concentrations of carnosine. Carnosine possesses strong antioxidant capabilities and is beneficial to the human body. It has been shown to scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed by the excessive oxidation of fatty acids in cell membranes during oxidative stress, as well as α-β-unsaturated aldehydes.

Feature

Anti-glycation: Glycation leads to loss of skin elasticity, wrinkles, and dullness. Carnosine sacrifices itself by binding to glucose, protecting proteins from glycation. It also binds to existing AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products), helping to break them down.

Powerful Antioxidant: It effectively neutralizes free radicals, protecting cell membranes and intracellular genetic material from oxidative damage.

Chlorination of Metal Ions: It can bind to metal ions such as copper and zinc, which catalyze the production of free radicals. In this way, it indirectly reduces oxidative stress.

Anti-fatigue and Improved Athletic Performance: In muscles, carnosine buffers lactic acid, delaying muscle soreness and fatigue, thus helping to improve endurance and athletic performance.

Applications

Skincare

Anti-glycation serums and creams use it as a core ingredient to prevent and reduce dullness and sallowness caused by glycation, restoring skin radiance.

Anti-wrinkle and firming products: By protecting collagen and elastin, it delays wrinkle formation and improves skin elasticity.

Eye care: Used in eye creams to combat glycation and oxidative damage to the delicate skin around the eyes.

Sports nutrition and health supplements

Sports supplements: Used to enhance endurance, relieve exercise fatigue, and accelerate recovery, they are popular among athletes and fitness enthusiasts.

Anti-aging supplements: As oral supplements, they systematically combat glycation and oxidation, delaying overall aging of bodily functions.

Pharmaceuticals and health

Neuroprotection: Studies show it may have a protective effect against neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, as it inhibits abnormal protein aggregation in the brain.

Eye health: Used to prevent and treat cataracts, as glycation of lens proteins is one of the causes of cataract formation.

Diabetes complications: May help prevent diabetes-related vascular and tissue damage.

For some products that require special packaging during transportation, we will carry out more delicate packaging. For example, retinal needs to be stored at -20 °C, so we choose cold chain transportation during transportation; deoxyarbutin will change color during transportation, so we will Vacuum packing of deoxyarbutin
