A member asked:
Some health advisors (e.g., dr. oz) recommend l-carnosine supplements at doses up to 1000 mg/day. at such doses, any risk to heart rhythm or a-fib?

Not likely.: Not likely to give you problems, but not likely to do you much benefit. Claims for these substances are based on small and inadequately controlled studies. Note the very vague and exaggerated claims in the advertising. Save your money for the things that make you feel better and live longer.
