Review: Great - Reached on time and in good condition Review: My husband is taking this for Pre-diabetes along with other supplements. We both are taking it as a recommendation from Dr. Oz to help slow down the aging process. Oz highly recommends taking this supplement. It has softened facial lines and helped with joint pain after exercising. All the other benefits will be accumulative, I'm sure, as time goes by. It can't hurt. Here is some more information about L-Carnosine: Benefits of L-Carnosine How Can it Benefit You? Even though the benefits of L-Carnosine have not been thoroughly researched, based on preliminary studies it may be useful to: Carnosine may be of benefit in complications associated with diabetes, cataracts, kidney failure, and neuropathy. L- Carnosine may also help to slow down the aging of skin, minimizing wrinkles and the breakdown of skin elasticity. It may be beneficial in the prevention of atherosclerosis, joint inflammation and cataract formation. Carnosine has shown to reduce and prevent cell damage caused by beta amyloid, a substance found in the brain of Alzheimer sufferers. In addition, it appears to have the ability to help eradicate the bacterium (Helicobacter pylori), an organism linked to peptic ulcer and even stomach cancer. As such, carnosine may provide significant protection and healing of both gastric and peptic ulcers. More possible benefits of L-Carnosine ................ Increases muscle strength and endurance. Protects against radiation damage. Improves the function of the heart. Speeds wound healing. Super antioxidant that quenches even the most destructive free radicals. Boosts immunity and reduces inflammation. It helps chelate certain heavy metals from the body (chelate means to pull out). May help children with autism. Carnosine may produce anti-cancer effects on the body. Protects the aging process of the brain by retarding lipid peroxidation and stabilizing cell membranes. L-Carnosine may help to prevent and may even treat age-related conditions such as: Neurological degeneration Cellular senescence (cell aging) Cross-linking of the eye lens Accumulation of damaged proteins Muscle atrophy Brain circulatory deficit Cross-linking of skin collagen LDL cholesterol oxidation DNA chromosome damage Formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) M ## Features - A free radical scavenger that supports healthy aging* - L-Carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine) is a dipeptide, consisting of alanine and histidine, naturally found in high concentrations in muscles and nerve tissues - Supports muscle vitality and cell integrity* - Take 1 capsule 1 to 3 times daily, preferably with food - Packaged in the USA by a family owned and operated company since 1968. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0013OSND8 | | ASIN | B0013OSND8 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Allergen Information | Dairy Free, Egg Free, Non-GMO, Nut Free, Soy Free | | Best Sellers Rank | #42,427 in Health ( See Top 100 in Health ) #820 in Amino Acid Nutritional Supplements #838 in Slimming Aids & Weight Loss Products | | Brand Name | NOW | | Color | Off White | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (897) | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (897) | | Department | Health and Beauty>Health and Wellness | | Diet Type | Gluten Free | | Dosage Form | Capsules,Tablet | | Flavor | Unflavored | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00733739000798 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Dimensions | 5.7 x 5.7 x 11.1 centimeters | | Item Form | Capsule | | Item Weight | 0.22 Pounds | | Item model number | 0079 | | Manufacturer | NOW Sports - Nutrition and Wellness | | Manufacturer | NOW Sports - Nutrition and Wellness | | Manufacturer Part Number | 0079 | | Material Features | Vegetarian | | Material Type Free | en_AE | | Model Name | L Carnosine ' Beta Alanyl Histidine 500 Mg Healthy Aging Veg Capsules | | Model Number | 0079 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Primary Supplement Type | Magnesium | | Product Benefits | Anti-Aging | | Product Dimensions | 5.72 x 5.72 x 11.13 cm; 99.79 g | | Special Ingredients | Sugar | | Specific Uses For Product | Laboratory | | Total Servings Per Container | 100 | | UPC | 733739000798 | | Unit Count | 100 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** NOW - **Diet type:** Gluten Free - **Flavour:** Unflavored - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 5.7 x 5.7 x 11.1 centimeters - **Item form:** Capsule - **Item weight:** 100 g - **Primary supplement type:** Magnesium - **Product benefits:** Anti-Aging - **Special ingredients:** Sugar - **Unit count:** 100 Count ## Images ![NOW Supplements, L-Carnosine (Beta-Alanyl-L-Histidine) 500 mg, Healthy Aging, 100 Veg Capsules - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+7tT4Qk9L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: what country is this manufactured in?** A: The addressof the company states U.S.A but did not indicate if it is actually manufactured in the U.S.A. **Q: How long before it starts to work?** A: this depends mainly on the purpose it is used for and the age of the user.
