Anti-Glycation Agents
– Carnosine
L-Carnosine is a dipeptide of the amino acids beta-Alanine and l-Histamine. L-Carnosine is naturally present in the human body, however its level declines as we age. L-Carnosine has the remarkable ability to rejuvenate cells and connective tissue, restoring normal appearance and extending cellular lifespan. L-Carnosine prevents skin collagen cross-linking, which leads to loss of elasticity and wrinkles. As a potent antioxidant, l-Carnosine effectively quenches the most destructive of free radicals, the hydroxyl radical, as well as super oxide, singlet oxygen and the peroxyl radical. L-Carnosine also protects cellular DNA and chromosomes from oxidative damage that accumulates with age.
Dr. Brandt Lineless Anti-Glycation Serum contain active anti-glycation ingredients targeting collagen and elastin to minimize the glycation of collagen and elastin. The active anti-glycation ingredient is carnosine which is composed of amino acids. It also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. There is some research showing it has anti-glycation properties.
- Helps revive cells and connective tissue, restoring normal appearance and extending cellular life spans
- Prevents the cross-linking of collagen, the loss of elasticity and appearance of wrinkles
- Protects cellular DNA and chromosomes from oxidative damage
