- Effective at combatting glycation, one of the key processes responsible for cellular aging.
- Has an antioxidant effect which combats oxidative stress and free radical damage.
- Has excellent stability with a longer life in the body.
Carcinine supplement is a stable form of carnosine delivered in vegetarian capsules. With optimal efficacy against glycation, it provides antioxidant and anti-aging health benefits, now available to buy at Supersmart.
Carcinine is the result of our continuing drive for innovation. At the cutting edge of supplement research, this product is a new derivative form of Carnosine.
Not only does Carcinine have the same, clear anti-aging effects as Carnosine but it has the advantage of being a more stable form. It is neither degraded by the enzyme carnosinase nor converted into histidine, giving it a longer life in the body and improving its efficacy against glycation.
Also known as L-carnosine, carnosine is a peptide formed within the body during the digestion of protein-rich food. It is present in brain and muscle tissue where it actively participates in muscle and tissue contraction. This molecule has also attracted scientific interest for its potential in fighting cellular aging and glycation.
Our new supplement is available in 150 mg capsules, with a suggested dose of two capsules a day for maximum benefit, though this can be adapted according to your needs and the advice of your therapist.
Glycation is a reaction between a sugar and a protein and leads to the formation of Advanced Glycation End-products or AGE. The formation of these molecules has a negative effect on certain essential proteins, and causes tissue damage to the skin, arteries and muscles, amongst others. As well as accelerating tissue aging, glycation is also associated with the development of age-related diseases such as atherosclerosis. Fortunately, scientific studies have identified beneficial molecules such as Carnosine that are able to counter this process.
Indeed this is why carnosine has long featured in the anti-aging and anti-glycation supplements offered in our catalogue. The results of the very latest research into carnosine, carcinine represents a new response to cellular aging. It is obtained by slightly modifying the carnosine molecule in order to offer an unprecedented formulation with excellent stability.

If you’re over – or fast-approaching – 70 years of age, or want some advice for loved ones in this age group, this article on ‘senior’ supplements is for you.
The polyphenol content of fruits and vegetables is one of the main reasons these foods are so good for our health. But which contain the most? And can you guess which one takes the no. 1 spot?
Glycation is a silent but powerful chemical reaction that plays a key role in the aging process. Find out exactly what’s involved in this ‘spontaneous caramelisation’ of the body, and how to curb it.
