Beta Alanine has been touted by many as the 'new creatine'. BulkPowders provides you with 100% pure Beta Alanine powder, which is ideal to combine with other BULK Powders products to create a custom pre-workout formula. If your aim is to increase resistance to fatigue, thereby improving performance and muscle gains, then Beta Alanine could be the answer.
Beta Alanine Information
Beta Alanine is a non-essential amino acid. This means it is naturally occurring, as opposed to essential amino acids, which are not.
Where to find Beta Alanine: As mentioned above, Beta Alanine is naturally occurring. In our diets it is mainly found in a dipeptide called carnosine, however it is also found in the dipeptides anserine and balenine. These dipeptides are found in protein-rich foods such as chicken, pork, beef and fish.
Beta Alanine can also be referred to as: Beta-Alanine, 3-aminopropanoic acid.
Directions
Serving Size
Take 4.0g - 5.0g daily, divided between 1-2 servings.
A BulkPowders.co.uk 5ml measure (level scoop) provides 4.0g of Beta Alanine powder. We therefore suggest using 0.5 - 1 scoop per serving.
Timing
On workout days take 2g-2.5g about 15-20 minutes before exercise and 2g-2.5g immediately after exercise. On non-workout days take 4g-5g when convenient, ideally with food to reduce the prickling sensation that Beta Alanine supplementation can cause.
Synergists
Research has suggested that Beta Alanine works well with carbohydrates. This could be particularly beneficial after exercise, by combining Beta Alanine with a carbohydrate such as Waxy Maize Starch, Maltodextrin or Dextrose. It is also thought that Beta Alanine and creatine work synergistically, so a combination of Beta Alanine, carbohydrates and creatine (we would suggest Creatine Monohydrate for its neutral taste) would be a very effective post-workout beverage.
Safety
Beta Alanine is a safe supplement. Studies of users supplementing with Beta Alanine for 12 weeks found no adverse effects whatsoever.
Toxicity
There is no known toxicity of Beta Alanine
Bans/Restrictions for Use
As far as we are aware there are no known bans or restrictions in regard to supplementing with Beta Alanine.
Our powders aren't supplied with a scoop. Add this 5ml Measure to your order for just £0.30!
This product is 100% pure Beta Alanine powder, nothing has been added nor taken away.

Great stuff. Keeps you alert and cuts fatigue / resting times. Also helped me lift more and more reps

Side effects are tingling skin and I got a mild headache for half hour, which soon went after hitting the gym

Works!
Really helps me add reps on high rep work. Works best with creatine and only for high rep work (over 10 reps) but it is sure fun suddenly to do 15 reps with an old 10rm weight :D
\
\
Gives me tingels in the face and fingers, but who cares+ It is very mild. Can't taste it and it goes down easy with a shake.

Works within a weeks loading for me.
