What Zinc L-Carnosine Actually Is

Zinc L-carnosine is not simply zinc. It is a chelated compound in which a zinc ion is bound to L-carnosine, a dipeptide made from the amino acids beta-alanine and histidine. The binding partner matters: it changes how the zinc behaves after ingestion, and it is the reason this compound appears in the research literature under its own name rather than as a generic zinc salt.

Full Composition

Zinc L-carnosine - the chelated zinc form, the compound most studied in this category
Mastic gum - a resin from the Pistacia lentiscus tree, traditionally harvested on the Greek island of Chios
DGL licorice - deglycyrrhizinated licorice, meaning the glycyrrhizin compound has been removed
L-glutamine - the most abundant free amino acid in the body

Why DGL Rather Than Plain Licorice

Whole licorice root contains glycyrrhizin, which is the part associated with concerns around prolonged intake. Deglycyrrhizinated licorice has that fraction removed while keeping the rest of the root material. If a label says DGL, that is the distinction being made.

Serving and Supply

Two capsules daily. Each bottle contains 120 capsules, a 60 day supply. Capsule format rather than gummy, because the resin and amino acid components are not well suited to a gummy base.

How to Read the Label

Check the Supplement Facts panel for the elemental zinc amount per serving. Products in this category vary widely in how much actual zinc they deliver, and the capsule count tells you nothing about that number.

Frequently asked questions

Everything people ask before their first order

What is zinc L-carnosine?

Zinc L-carnosine is a chelated compound in which zinc is bound to L-carnosine, a dipeptide made from the amino acids beta-alanine and histidine. It is distinct from common zinc salts such as zinc oxide or zinc gluconate, and it appears in the research literature under its own name rather than as a generic zinc source.

How much elemental zinc does each serving provide?

Check the Supplement Facts panel for the elemental zinc figure. Products in this category differ widely, and the total weight of a zinc compound tells you nothing about how much elemental zinc the serving actually delivers.

What is mastic gum?

Mastic gum is a resin obtained from the Pistacia lentiscus tree, traditionally harvested on the Greek island of Chios. It has a long history of use in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern traditions.

What does DGL mean, and why use it instead of plain licorice?

DGL stands for deglycyrrhizinated licorice. The glycyrrhizin fraction has been removed - that is the part associated with concerns around prolonged intake of whole licorice root. The remaining root material is retained.

What is L-glutamine doing in the formula?

L-glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in the body and is a primary fuel source for the cells lining the intestinal tract. It is included alongside the other components as part of the overall blend.

Why is this a capsule rather than a gummy?

Mastic gum is a resin and L-glutamine is an amino acid - neither is well suited to a gummy base, which needs ingredients that set and remain stable at room temperature. The capsule format also carries the full blend without a sweetener base.

How do I take it?

Two capsules daily. Each bottle contains 120 capsules, a 60-day supply.

Does it contain common allergens?

The full ingredient list appears on the Supplement Facts panel for this product. Review it against your own dietary requirements before use.
