Researchers from the University of Central Florida suggest supplementing with beta-alanine to increase muscle carnosine and relieve fatigue. In their study, which was published in the journal Nutrition Research, the team looked at the effects of beta-alanine supplementation on performance, muscle carnosine, and L-histidine in men and women.
Earlier studies have shown that supplementation with beta-alanine leads to increased intramuscular carnosine content, improving buffering capacity during intense exercise.- Recent research has also suggested that beta-alanine supplementation may also decrease muscle L-histidine.
- For the current study, the research team compared the effects of beta-alanine supplementation between men and women.
- They hypothesized that beta-alanine supplementation would result in similar increases in carnosine and performance between men and women and would reduce muscle L-histidine.
- To test this hypothesis, they recruited 26 men and women and randomly gave them either beta-alanine or placebo for 28 days.
- The results showed that beta-alanine supplementation greatly increased muscle carnosine and reduced exercise fatigue both in men and women.
- However, beta-alanine supplementation did not affect muscle L-histidine.
- The differences between men and women were unclear.
The findings of the study suggested that supplementing with beta-alanine for 28 days can increase muscle carnosine and relieve fatigue in men and women, but did not reduce muscle L-histidine.

Heavy metal poisoning
Heavy metal poisoning is much more common than most people realize, and if you’re thinking that it doesn’t apply to you because you haven’t been exposed to any, think again. If you’ve eaten fish regularly, had amalgam fillings, received vaccinations, drank contaminated water, or done industrial or agricultural work or pharmaceutical manufacturing, there’s a good chance that you have a fair amount of toxic metals in your system..
We are here to help and to educate!
