What Is Beta Alanine Powder?

Beta Alanine from THE PROTEIN WORKS™ are part of the Amino Acid Family. Amino Acids are basically building blocks of muscles, helping to build and maintain protein.This amino acid can be produced by the body, though there may be added benefit to increasing the amount available via supplementation, especially those that take part in intense physical activity. Beta-Alanine will come to the rescue on those final reps or push on the treadmill, fighting off that burn that makes you want to quit!

How Does Beta Alanine Powder Work?

When working out our muscles produce lactic acid as a by-product of creating energy, and as many of you I’m sure are aware, lactic acid build up, can give you that dreaded painful muscle spasm called cramp. Nobody enjoys that! This is where this unique Amino Acid steps in.

Beta-Alanine is the building block of carnosine, a molecule that helps buffer acid in muscles during exercise. Without Beta Alanine our body has a limited amount of carnosine available. By adding Beta-Alanine to your arsenal you could improve your performance in that all-out effort range by maintaining pH levels inside the working muscle. When acid levels in the muscle increase, the muscle cannot create the energy it uses to move.

Beta-Alanine dosages above 2g can cause a tingling feeling called paresthesia. It is a harmless side effect that passes after 15-20 minutes.

What Are The Benefits Of Beta Alanine?

Beta Alanine has a number of different benefits for those who enjoy to keep fit healthy and get the most out of their gym sessions.

Backed by credible research, Beta Alanine is a great addition to any athletes supplement routine, especially those with mass & power goals. But it’s also become a very popular active ingredient in most pre-workout formulas, including The Protein Works™ best-selling Raze™ Preworkout.

Why Buy Beta Alanine Powder?

Beta Alanine should be bought by anyone wanting to increase their physical output at the gym and finally start seeing some results from those hard workouts. With benefits such as contributing to the increase of muscle mass, whilst also helping to reduce fatigue and improving recovery rates it really is a no-brainer when adding this to your supplement stack. You may also look at those benefits and think, but I don't want to increase my muscles? I just enjoy going to the gym.

When Is The Best Time To Take Beta Alanine Powder?

Taking any supplement at the right time ensures that its benefits are as effective as possible. We recommend that Beta Alanine should be consumed 30 minutes before your hitting the gym, to help your muscles through the stress and strain of a workout. It should then be consumed regularly throughout the day to replenish your muscles. Don't think you need a strict guide of ‘every 2 hours I must consume’, it depends on your output, the more exercise or activities you perform the more Beta Alanine you will need, simple as that.

Who Should Take Beta Alanine Powder?

So, we’ve talked about how consuming Beta Alanine Powder can help you. Now you may be thinking why don't we take Carnosine as an actual supplement?

Well, Our bodies struggle to absorb Carnosine, whereas Beta-Alanine bypasses the digestive system better.

Carnosine can be sourced from in meats, specifically in Beef, chicken and pork but it's almost impossible to get enough that it improves exercise performance. It also makes perfect sense for those who have taken the decision to consume a non-meat diet, Vegetarians and Vegans to be exact, then as Beta-Alanine is Vegan Friendly it is certainly an excellent supplement to add to your stack.

Beta-Alanine is an key supplement for your stack to help reduce muscle fatigue and give you that well needed needed energy and muscle boost.
