nutrition : imidazole dipeptides / IDPs

 This is turning out to be an interesting group of molecules.

  • histadine containing : most common in chicken, fish, and then other skeletal muscle meats
  • antioxidant and pH buffering : "instant energy" end-user experience
  • generally not saturated in humans, so there are benefits to eating it
  • also some research linking these to Parkinson's Disease ( neural death in the Substantia Nigra associated with oxidative stress )
There are three of easy interest; only one is a commerciallycommon supplement
  • carnosine :
    • the common supplement is beta alanine, as carnosine is produced in humans, but beta alanine is usually the rate-limiting input
  • anserine : 
    • uncommon commercially
  • balenine : 
    • uncommon commercially
