A team of UK scientists discovered that the anti-aging dietary supplement, Carnosine can prevent cancer and Alzheimer’s disease. According to the scientists, Carnosine can prevent incidences of a variety ageing-related disorders and diseases including neuropsychiatric disorders and diabetes mellitus.
The scientists reported the study results in the Chemistry Central Journal. The report can boost the morale of millions of elderly people who are being suffered from aging-related, debilitating medical problems.
Carnosine is derived from a naturally-occurring bioactive compound, and it is relatively cheaper than other similar supplements.
Carnosine, a potent antioxidant pill, is being consumed by millions of people to prevent aging related health problems. Several anti-aging drugs and supplementary formulations contain Carnosine which scavenges toxic body chemicals such as reactive oxygen species and other free radicals. Free radicals are the predominant causative for development of degenerative diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and diabetes.
Athletes and sports personnel use Carnosine to delay exercise or sports-related fatigue.
The same study reported that the supplement can even prevent incidences of Parkinson’s disease, and also from type 2 diabetes complications such as neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy etc.
If the Carnosine is researched further, other potential, long term benefits can be unearthed, said study lead, Prof. Roslyn Bill, Aston University, UK.
