Product Description
Product Description
L-Carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine) is a dipeptide, consisting of alanine and histidine. It is naturally found in high concentrations in muscles and nerve tissues and its levels are known to decrease with age. L-Carnosine protects cell and tissue structures during the aging process through its free-radical neutralizing and membrane-stabilizing functions.* Natural color variation may occur in this product.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I had no problems with the packaging, delivery time, or product quality so I'll move onto the actual product. Even though I had read otherwise, for some reason I thought that I would wake up the next day after first taking this and look 5+ years younger. Of course, that didn't happen. Don't expect this product to work overnight or even in the span of a week. It takes time for noticeable results.
I'm a 28 year old male, so I'm not exactly old. However, because I was overweight, I looked younger than my age to most people. When a person has a chubby face it's difficult to tell how old they are as I'm sure many of you have noticed. About a year ago I lost a lot of weight and now I'm in good shape.
However, I was left with a lot of wrinkles because the fat had stretched out the skin on my face and other body parts. This was especially noticeable when I would smile. So, rather than look 18-21 which is what most people mistook me for before I lost the weight; after losing the weight I looked like I was 28-32.
This was of course disheartening to me since I was so used to my smooth, wrinkle-free face for all my life and now I looked like I was aging big time. Losing weight shouldn't come with negative consequences!!! So, I did some research and tried many other supplements including astaxanthin, which is supposed to be the most powerful anti-oxidant and helps to slow down the aging process.
I was on astaxanthin for months before I tried this product and I didn't notice any major difference, although I wasn't getting older looking either so I think maybe astaxanthin is good for slowing down aging rather than reversing it.
After just one month of taking L-Carnosine, 4 pills a day(So, 2,000mg), I noticed several of my wrinkles were gone and my skin in general began to tighten up. Fast forward to where I am now, three months into using it and all of the wrinkles I have are gone. When I smile; no wrinkles. I look like I am in my late teens/early twenties again.
So, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is interested in looking younger. I'm not sure if I feel younger, but since the improvement is gradual I might not have felt myself getting more energized over time. I'm certainly not someone who lacks for energy though.
Anyways, if you want to look years younger, buy this product! If anyone has questions I'll be happy to answer them!
It has been a miracle pill after that. It has completely STOPPED my appetite. Generally I have a regular appetite and I eat normal, healthy diet. I do not buy junk food in general, but if I get my hands on some, I am going in, I am eating some of that chips, a cookie or two , a piece of that cake etc. My biggest weakness is bread, the chewy rustic french type is my poison. After taking L-Carnosine, my craving for carbs has completely dissaperead. I mean, just gone, absolutely gone! I can barely eat even one quarter of what I used to eat. I am getting satisfied with just couple of bites food, any food . It has been only three days, but I have already lost almost 3 pounds. This almost never happens, unless I am doing some extreme fad diet like all protein, zero carbs where it is mostly water loss. But this weight loss does not seem like water loss, as my skin looks hydrated and plump. It does not have that dehydrated, sunken look. It looks very good actually.
This is what I have done for past three days, first day took one pill, second day two pills (one in the morning and one in the evening), third day two pills. Fisrt day walked 8 miles, second day barely 1 mile, third day 5 miles. Even with considerably decreased appetite, I have managed to eat decent amount of protein, some vegetables, a bit of bread and a little bit of wine, just incase I suffer malnutrition (Ha ha!). But I literally had to conjure up all my will power to eat that small amount of food, I just did not want to eat at all! I had to force myself to swallow the bites I was chewing!! I also did not have any craving for wine, even though I love red wine and drink in moderation. With L-Carnosine, I did not want to drink wine while drinking it! I know, if I do no have appetite at all, my body is feeding off of its own fat storage ( I have some), and I do not need to disturb this fantastic, once in a blue moon process. But, how can I not just eat, right?? :-)
I have also noticed my skin looking tighter and smoother, it was not bad to begin with, but looks better. And its been only three days. One word of caution, this supplement works immediately, like as soon as I take it! That can be a very good thing if the effects are positive, or not so good if it does not agree with you. I am glad I gave it a second chance, now I stay away from coffee and things are great really. Time will tell if it will be a fountain of youth pill, but the weight loss will certainly help improving my over all health.

遠く離れて就職した子供にも送りました。
子供は朝が辛くなくなったと絶賛。これは欠かすのが怖い。
何となくゴロゴロする時間が多かったので、
買い求め毎日飲み始め、しばらくすると
何となく疲れにくくなってきました。
多分効いているのだろうと思いました。
効果は分かりませんでした
鶏肉100gを含む料理を毎日欠かさず食べるのは意外と大変だったので、サプリに頼ることにしました。
イミダゾールには、カルノシンと、アンセリンがあり、鳥の胸肉のイミダゾールはアセリン7割、カルノシン3割だそうです。
カルノシンと、アンセリンの効果に差は無いそうなので、これにしました。
イミダゾールで疲労抑制効果がでるのは、1日に200mg摂取という先生や1日1500mgだという学会誌の記事などがあります。
本品のラベルには、「服用量:1日2から3カプセル」とあります。3カプセルで1500mgです。
数千㎎程度摂取しても過剰摂取の心配は無いようなので、毎日2カプセル飲んでいます。
2カプセルで鳥の胸肉100gに含まれるイミダゾールの量と同じです。
今のところ星3つにしていますが、効果がわかったら星の数変えます。
2,3週間で効果あるみたいなので、楽しみです。
【2週間目の追記】
2週間、朝と夜1錠づつ飲んでみました。
劇的に元気になったりはしませんが、1日中アウトドアで遊んだ翌日でも、通常ペースで活動できています。
効果があったとは言い切れませんが、効果があった気がするので、続けてみようと思っています。
【リピートしました】
劇的ではないですが、元気が出ている気がするのでリピートしています。
