The efficacy and role of carnosine

The efficacy and role of carnosine

Feb 22, 2022
Carnosine (L-carnosine) is a natural molecule composed of two amino acids—histidine and alanine. It has been used as a dietary supplement for several years. Carnosine acts in "excitable" tissues such as muscle and nerve tissue, and is found in high concentrations in skeletal muscle. In these tissues it is essential for maintaining normal pH and charge.

Clinical studies have shown that carnosine supplementation can improve muscle function and recovery from muscle fatigue; prevent brain degeneration and loss of cognitive function and memory with age; improve mental function and behavior in children with attention deficit disorder and autism; Efficacy and action of carnosine zinc (Zinc L-carnosine) when used in combination with zinc to heal peptic ulcers.


In addition to playing an important role in regulating charge in excitable tissues, studies have shown that carnosine is important for cellular health for a number of other reasons. During high-intensity exercise, carnosine inhibits the production of large amounts of lactic acid in the muscles, facilitating recovery from exercise. These benefits may promote the function of muscles fatigued from previous exercise and may explain why carnosine is commonly used by bodybuilders and athletes to improve muscle function and recovery from muscle fatigue.

Carnosine is also an important intracellular antioxidant. Studies have shown that carnosine can scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) and prevent the peroxidation of cell membrane fatty acids during oxidative stress. Research has also confirmed that it also has strong anti-aging properties, in part due to its antioxidant properties, while preventing glycation (the attachment of sugar molecules to proteins) that can cause premature aging.
