Beta-Alanine

Beta-Alanine is a non-essential amino acid naturally produced in the body and found in some foods, and is the beta isomer of the amino acid alanine. It is commonly used as a dietary supplement ingredient, especially in sports nutrition, and is used in pre-workout and athletic supplements. It is not used for protein synthesis and is associated with increasing muscle carnosine levels and buffering acid in muscles during high-intensity exercise.
