Researchers have come a long way since the original discovery of the very unique amino acid carnosine. L-carnosine has long been known for helping with muscle recovery and energy production within the muscles. We are now seeing why this amino acid is so important to our overall health and wellness.†
L-carnosine is a dipeptide made up of beta alanine and L-histidine. Recent research has found high levels of this amino acid in neurons, showing that this nutrient may be important for the nervous system and brain. We find carnosine throughout the body wherever there are high energy demands, including the heart, brain and skeletal muscles. It helps support the metabolic demand and energy production within those regions.†
We also now recognize that this nutrient plays a role in the aging process. As carnosine levels begin to diminish, we start to see an acceleration of aging. We can see that the shortening of telomeres is associated with low levels of carnosine in the body. This can cause things to go haywire.†
Initial studies on L-carnosine looked at the role of the nutrient in skeletal muscle. It is integral to muscle recovery, so it is helpful after exercise, for example. But we also know that it seems to exert this multimodal activity, including being very important when it comes to targeting free radicals. It has its own antioxidant capabilities. It is very beneficial when it comes to easing inflammation.†
If we can supplement with L-carnosine and put this nutrient back into our body, we are actually helping to protect our telomeres, which are the end-caps of our cellular DNA.†
We have our L-Carnosine Plus HxⓇ formulation, which is this powerful dipeptide that people can utilize for a variety of reasons. For people who are seeing early signs of the kidneys beginning to slow down, then taking carnosine can be advantageous for its antioxidant properties, as well as its ability to help with glycation. This can also be the case when it comes to diabetic neuropathy. There is so much research continuing to come out about how the antioxidants derived from carnosine can do so much to support the health of the brain, as well as the muscles.†

Sometimes we overlook the importance of energy in the body. We forget that if we are lacking energy, we are going to start having some missteps or misfirings occur. Many times, we don’t even recognize the true impact that low energy states can have on our overall health and wellness. Today, I want to talk about one particular type of energy in the body and why it’s important to maintain this, especially when we look at cardiovascular health, skeletal muscle health and fatigue.†
As we get older, our cellular energy levels begin to decline. We frequently talk about this in the setting of Coenzyme Q10 because even though it’s made in the body, age and certain medications can block the proper manufacturing of this important nutrient. This can cause you to feel more fatigued or tired, which is an indication that our cells are not functioning at their optimal performance.†

There is something in the body that plays a really critical role in maintaining and restoring energy levels and that is ribose. D-ribose has been shown to increase cellular energy production within the heart and skeletal muscles. If we do not have adequate D-ribose, then we’re going to have a hard time in terms of energy recovery, as well as muscle recovery.†
Ribose is something that is naturally-occurring within our system. It is an essential component to our cellular energy management. It also yields the ability to fend off oxidative stress because it plays a role as an antioxidant. In this role, it can help to ease inflammation.†
Supplementation with D-ribose is a very good choice for those who are dealing with cardiac issues. Ribose works in the production of ATP, as well as in helping to fend off oxidative stress within the heart itself. It is free radical damage that causes an inflammatory response within the heart. If we have adequate levels of ribose, then we know that the cells themselves are being protected from oxidative stress. Ribose can be found in our Ribose Complex, which is a great formulation.†
In this episode, Amanda Williams, MPH discusses the powerful nutrient ribose. She details how ribose helps support heart health and energy levels and explains how it also acts as an antioxidant.†
