Carnosine and inflammaging: dampening chronic low-grade inflammation in older adults
"Inflammaging" is the slow, background inflammation that builds with age and drags on recovery, joints and metabolism. This paper makes the case that carnosine is unusual because it works on three fronts implicated in that process — glycation, oxidation and immune signalling — instead of just one.
Key takeaway
The argument here is mechanism, not miracle: carnosine acts on several of the upstream drivers of age-related low-grade inflammation at once.
