Benefits
The peptide of youth
It helps restore tone to the skin, reducing small wrinkles in a natural and profound way.
Things
It is a dipeptide made up of two essential amino acids: histidine and β-alanine.
Histidine is present in proteins and acts, among other things, as a natural detoxifier, prevents radiation damage and promotes tissue development and healing. β-alanine is essential for increasing carnosine levels, delaying muscle fatigue and reducing age-related muscle decline.
Carnosine is found in the muscles of almost all vertebrates.
Its action develops against glycation and therefore the reduction of the production of AGEs (Advanced Glycation Endproducts, which lead to a loss of elasticity and tone, favoring the formation of wrinkles) and free radicals.
Curiosity
It was discovered in 1900 by the Russian biochemist Vladimir Sergeevich Gulevich and was given the name carnosine because it was isolated from a piece of minced meat. Its therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of some pathologies was demonstrated even before the Second World War, but only after the war did its potential begin to be widely studied both in the USSR and in the USA.
