Description:
This presentation will explore Beta-Alanine, a non-essential amino acid commonly used to enhance athletic performance. First, the presentation will delve into the biochemical foundations of Beta-Alanine, elucidating its role in increasing intramuscular carnosine levels. Attendees will then explore the mechanisms by which Beta-Alanine interacts with physiological systems to improve performance. Additionally, the session will provide an analysis of the amino acid's safety profile based on peer-reviewed scientific evidence, and furnish practical guidelines for its effective usage, including dosage and timing. Finally, the audience will be updated on the latest research findings, equipping them with the most current information to make well-informed, evidence-based decisions and recommendations.
The audience will learn how to:
