How does carnosine work as an anti-aging nutrient?

Proteins are the substances most responsible for the daily functioning of living organisms. When proteins are damaged and modified due to a variety of complex chemical processes including carbonylation, glycosylation, lipid peroxidation, cross linking, and the production of AGEs (advanced glycosylation end-products) - there is a dramatic impact on the functioning and appearance of the body. Our faces begin to sag and wither, our energy levels decrease, and without our even realizing it, all of a sudden we look differently than we did 20 or 50 years ago.

According to Karin Granstrom Jordan, M.D. ("Carnosine: Nature's pluripotent life extension agent" Life Extension Magazine, Jan, 2001), "Modified proteins accumulate as we age, while carnosine levels are declining. Once a protein is modified it has lost its ability to function normally, and when a significant portion of the body's protein has reached this point, the body becomes more prone to degenerative diseases." Carnosine is now ... more.
