Now Beta - Alanine Powder, High Potency (Vegetarian)
The Beta-Alanine is an amino acid, which is used by muscle cells to synthesize carnosine.
Beta-alanine is the only beta-amino acid today in nature and since it is synthesized only within the human body, specifically in the liver and we cannot acquire it from protein consumption.
The immediate administration of carnosine would not have any effect since its gastrointestinal absorption is negligible. The increase in carnosine after the administration of beta-alanine (an increase greater than 80% after several weeks of administration), results in the physiological capabilities of the dipeptide (Beta-alanine & L-histidine) reaching their full strength.
Numerous studies have shown that carnosine is partially able to limit the effects of lactic acid in the muscles, which contributes to the improvement of athletes' performance. An increase in muscle carnosine can therefore improve anaerobic or mixed aerobic and anaerobic exercises.
Numerous studies have demonstrated its antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective properties, as well as its actions against scars, tumors, diseases, and its ability to protect cells of various tissues (mainly in muscles and nerves).
Carnosine helps activate enzymes responsible for activating muscle contractions. Research has shown that the complementary intake of Beta-Alanine significantly delays muscle fatigue.
