L-CARNOSINE

111,00 € TTC

180 capsules – 320 mg/caps

Carnosine is a dipeptide composed of two amino-acids: beta-alanine and L-histidine, discovered in the beginning of the 20th century. It is an antioxidant, an anti-inflammatory, and an anti-glycation molecule that fights senescence. Carnosine is mostly found in the skin, the heart, the brain, in muscular tissue and in the eyes. When the organism ages, the amount of available carnosine diminishes. Thus, it is essential to receive daily L-carnosine to preserve oneself efficiently against the overall effects of aging by preserving oneself from the degenerative pathologies that this can trigger.

CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE ON L-CARNOSINE

Carnosine preserves cartilage through an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect

A study has revealed that carnosine supplement intake has a protective effect against the oxidant stress damage on cartilage cells. Hence, carnosine prevents cartilage degradation in arthritic joints through its antioxidant action. It has an anti-inflammatory effect on chondrocytes, which are cartilage cells (1).

Anti-glycation effect thanks to carnosine

Carnosine enables protection against protein glycation damage. Glycation, or Maillard reaction, is a chemical reaction resulting from sugar fixation on protein residue. This creates new molecules that are very harmful: glycated proteins. Not only are they degraded but they also accumulate in cells where they are toxic, provoking an inflammatory tissue response. Furthermore, cells are sensitive to oxidation and increase the production of free radicals. This represents one of the key risk factors of senescence. The skin is directly affected because collagen is hit in an irreversible manner. A carnosine supplement intake will limit this phenomenon, neutralizing free radicals, avoiding cell death by its antioxidant effect (2). This phenomenon impacts the eyes which leads to crystalline opacification also called cataract. This disease continues to spread worldwide with population aging. Even if this can be treated by surgery, cataract prevention is a highly sought alternative. That is when carnosine comes into play, clinical studies have shown encouraging results (3). Moreover, carnosine is a comprehensive protector of ocular health, also acting on glaucoma over the course of a carnosine intake. Indeed, researchers have noticed a reduction of intraocular pressure (4).

Carnosine lowers glycemia and inhibits the development of type 2 diabetes

A recent 2021 study on carnosine supplement intake showed that there can be improvements of metabolic regulation, especially in the case of diabetes and related conditions. Results showed for humans a reduction of glycemia levels in the glycated hemoglobin rate before meals and insulin resistance before meals. Therefore, carnosine seems full of promise in the amelioration of glycemia control (5). Moreover, a regular carnosine intake in overweight adults would contribute to the fight against the development of type 2 diabetes through a diminishing of insulin resistance. That allows to optimize glucose assimilation by cells and to reduce glycemia (6).

Carnosine fights cell aging and has a rejuvenating effect

Carnosine is a recognized antioxidant, and a study shows that it preserves cell integrity by its effects on protein metabolism. This action delays senescence by rejuvenating cells (7). Indeed, other studies indicated that in addition to the protective function of cells against oxidation action, carnosine seems to be able to extend the life span of cultivated cells. They would enable aged-cell rejuvenation and amyloid peptide toxic-effect inhibition, the former harmful effects being responsible for Alzheimer’s disease. The amyloid peptide is a localized protein mostly found in the brain. It can threat the right functioning of the central nervous system because of genetic or environmental reasons. Carnosine would inhibit protein glycosylation and DNA reticulation. That means that it protects DNA from all alterations due to oxidation. This contributes to the maintaining of cellular homeostasis. As a result, carnosine can be applied to humans as a supplement against aging (8).

L-carnosine has a neuroprotective effect on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases

Carnosine has also a neuroprotective effect because protein oxidation and glycation are core in the Alzheimer’s disease physiopathology.  Carnosine can diminish amyloid-beta-peptide toxicity that accumulate in the brain by the means of plaques. It can inhibit the production of free radicals and trap other reactive radicals and suppress protein glycation. We know that glycated proteins accumulate in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases. The levels of human carnosine in this liquid diminish considerably as one gets older. Therefore, a carnosine supplement intake would suppress the responsiveness of glycated proteins. Furthermore, carbonic anhydrase activity, which is done by a protein, diminishes in the brain of Alzheimer-affected patients. This same study shows that carnosine is an activator of this protein (9). Finally, a 2016 study showed an increase of brain blood flow in health elderly people that receive a L-carnosine supplement intake. The study participants also have proved to have better memory preservation (10). Parkinson disease is the second most frequent disorder in the central nervous system because of the degeneration of certain neurons. Current disease treatments have a strategy that aims at relieving the symptoms without preventing disease progression. The neuroprotective and anti-apoptotic potential of carnosine, that avoids cellular death, has been evaluated in a study assessing its benefits in rats suffering from Parkinson’s disease. Carnosine pretreatment significantly reduced apoptosis and restored certain activities. These results indicate that a carnosine intake could display a neuroprotective effect that is beneficial in patients suffering from early Parkinson’s disease (11).

L-carnosine inhibits cancerous cells

L-carnosine also has antiproliferative properties. It could then inhibit the growth of cancerous cells and impede them from proliferating. Preliminary studies also suggest that carnosine is a feasible strategy to fight cancer. Indeed, the presence of carnosine has diminished the growth of many major cancerous cells like hepatic, colon, and ovarian cells. Furthermore, a study advances the relation between a low carnosine level and a bad cancer prognostic (9). A regular L-carnosine intake would allow to fight against the proliferation of cancerous cells.
