Age Is Not Your Limit.
Carnosine Decline Is.

By age 70, muscle carnosine levels drop by over 60%. That's why recovery gets harder and soreness lingers longer — even for people who never stop training.

Published research shows restoring carnosine levels improves exercise capacity most dramatically in older adults — because they have the most to gain.

📉

Carnosine Drops With Age

Up to 63% decline in muscle carnosine between ages 20–70 — a key driver of slower recovery and reduced endurance.

🔬

Research-Proven

Peer-reviewed studies confirm restoring carnosine levels improves exercise capacity in older adults more than any other age group.

🏃

Stay Active, Longer

Nothing to ingest, no side effects. Apply before training and keep doing what you love — at any age.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is carnosine gel and how is it different from other products?
Carnosine gel is a topical product that delivers carnosine directly through the skin to muscle tissue. Carnosine is a naturally occurring dipeptide that buffers lactic acid during exercise — delaying fatigue and reducing the burn. LactiGo is the only patented carnosine gel on the market (US Patent 10,973,868), developed over 10 years by a two-sport Olympian and clinical nutrition expert.
When should I apply LactiGo?
Apply LactiGo to clean, dry skin 15–30 minutes before training or competition. Massage into the target muscle area — quads, hamstrings, calves, shoulders — until fully absorbed. It dries fast with no sticky residue. You can also apply post-workout to support recovery.
Is carnosine gel better than beta-alanine or oral carnosine supplements?
For most people, yes. Oral beta-alanine causes a tingling sensation (paresthesia) and must be converted to carnosine through a slow metabolic process. Oral carnosine is largely broken down in the gut before reaching muscles. LactiGo delivers carnosine topically — directly to muscles — with no tingling, no GI issues, and results within 45 minutes.
Can carnosine gel help with healthy aging?
Yes — and this is one of its most compelling use cases. Muscle carnosine levels decline by up to 63% between ages 20 and 70. Published research shows that restoring carnosine levels improves exercise capacity most in older adults. Many LactiGo users are active people in their 40s–60s who want to train hard and recover properly.
Is LactiGo safe for drug-tested athletes?
Yes. LactiGo is Informed Sport certified — independently tested for banned substances and safe for athletes in all drug-tested sports including Olympic, professional league, and sanctioned competition use.
What is the return policy?
LactiGo offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on your first order. If you don't love it, return it. All purchases are sold and fulfilled directly by LactiGo.
What sports is LactiGo used in?
LactiGo is used across the NHL, NFL, professional cycling, marathon running, MMA, CrossFit, mountain biking, track & field, and more. It's also popular with recreational athletes, weekend warriors, gym-goers, and active adults of all ages.
