Aminoguanidine, Cheating Father Time
Aminoguanidine (AG) is definitely a health supplement that anyone in pursuit of longevity and maintaining good health should become familiar with. I was first introduced to this AG somewhere in the early nineties but at that time it was not a supplement that was easy to find. Even now you are not likely to find this product just any place. This product would have fallen under the category of one of those “offshore nutrition” that I refer to on the pages named
ATP and Adenosine Triphosphate Triphosphate which are located on this website. Unlike supplements such as hyaluronic acid and resveratrol this product has had to make its own way into the spotlight without the help of media interest or coverage. In researching this product, I was actually surprised that there were no pictures available among the multitude of images that goggle and live always seems to have an abundance of. Not a single reference on You-Tube so I you can make claim to having come across a rare fine if this is your first time hearing about this supplement.
B>What is it? Aminoguanidine is a compound that is well known for its activity against diabetes, glycation and other age related diseases. Age related changes that occur in the body considered to be caused by something that most of us have come to know as cross-linking of protein or glycosylation. When you think of cross linking then think of glycosylation in that same thought and you have a better understanding of how both are related. Glycosylation is believed to be cause of many age related problems such as cardiac enlargement, cancer, diabetes, and impaired immune system, skin aging, senile cataracts and thickening of the arteries.
AG is believed to have the ability to slow down the aging process by protecting the proteins that make up our bodies. If you already have a longevity regiment that includes taking supplements, then this is one product that should be given a great deal of consideration.
