I suggest using Carnosine if a given product named Carnosine is involved (for example Carnosine Star) and karnozin if/where the text is about the compound carnosine in general.

Yeah, in the end, some people just don't like the changes their languages are undergoing. They feel they're in some way disappearing, and then comes the impetus to preserve.

I am not a linguist either (I just read this in Bill Bryson's book, The Mother Tongue). In many ways I like the freedom English has, the organic development of the language. Yet I passionately loathe some of the products of the same, especially the terms

Your point is well taken, Levente. But the question still lingers for me (in any language)...What is more important: what some official body says is correct, or what people are using? Linguists (which I am not) love to talk about this kind of stuff.

the English language (with all pros and contras for such a setup). So, in English, you may really discuss this. In Hungarian, on the other hand, if there is a rule, then there is a rule, no matter what people stuff the internet with.

carnosine

Explanation:
It you're just looking for the Hungarian "equivalent", I think this would be it. If you google "carnosine", "kapszula", you'll get some hits.

Yes, you're right. Even so, if you google "karnozin", "kapszula", you'll get only half as many hits as if you google "carnosine", "kapszula", which leads me to believe that the spelling "carnosine" is used quite frequently in Hungarian.
