Zinc carnosine (Zinc L-carnosine CAS No.: 107667-60-7) provides nutritional support for gastrointestinal mucosal healing. Zinc carnosine has been shown to help protect the gastric mucosa and promote gastrointestinal comfort. Studies have shown that zinc carnosine promotes healthy mucus production, exerts antioxidant properties, and inhibits the expression of cytokines that help protect the stomach and small intestine from injury. L-Glutamine promotes small intestinal cell function and mucosal integrity, further supporting gastrointestinal function and protecting tissue.

Zinc carnosine is a chelate of zinc with carnosine, not a simple mixture of carnosine and zinc. It selectively and persistently (it breaks down at a slower rate in the stomach) attaches to the gastrointestinal wall of the ulcer, like putting a "band-aid" on the skin, which helps to reduce inflammation of the ulcer ,heal. Carnosine zinc will eventually be slowly decomposed into L-carnosine and zinc, both of which are nutrients needed by the body, so the safety is good, and a reasonable dose will not burden the body.
