NOW FoodsSports Nutrition, Beta-Alanine 750 mg, Delays Muscle Fatigue*, Endurance*, 120 Veg Capsules

This is a great Beta Alanine Supplement, and this will be my second time purchasing this brand. It's a great price and quality.I used to get a horrible burning sensation early on, in my leg routine. Unbearable. Now, no pun, I hardly get it at all, and can increase the length and intensity of my workouts. I wish I knew about this sooner. My legs are growing more than ever because I can push harder.Don't let the 1 star reviews deter you. They have no idea what they are talking about, and left me wondering why they initially purchased it, and if they even exercise?Work your way up to 2-3 grams pre-workout.I take it 30 minutes before exercise. It gives me the tell-tale tingles, which starts my countdown to working out.

Not many supplements that are a game changer, but this is one of them on par with crayons or caffeine. The effect on my recovery/stress as measured by my Garmin are huge.I do recommend starting out with 1 and increasing to 2. I get the skin tingles at 2 so that means my body is probably processing as much as it possibly can. I love the way I feel though, the tingles have grown on me. I take 2 in the am and 2 in the pm.

As an active woman who loves to run and enjoys strength training, Beta-alanine is a supplement I like to add in my stack when I want extra energy and endurance. I purchased many products from NOW Foods (both the regular and the Sports line) and I'm always satisfied by the quality.As a small athletic female (5'5'', 110-120lbs) I can only take 1 capsule before a really hard workout or a long run. This stuff is strong enough to give me a big rush in just 15-20 minutes. I can really feel the jitters and rush; if it's not an intense enough workout I definitely get some skull pressure from the rush going to my head instead of the muscles (and I noticed in reviews many mentioned headaches). The effects last for 1-1.5 hours, with the tingling getting less noticeable as I workout.The tingling doesn't subsides once I take it over a long period, I just got used to it. It's not uncomfortable or bad, just strange, especially if you are not used to taking similar supplements.Maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but I feel like 3 capsules would kill me; so I highly recommend starting with a low dosage and increasing it only if you feel safe (especially if you are a small person like me).Personally I found that taking it along theanine helps keeping the rush, jitters and tingling down. I would be actually afraid to combine it with caffeine or other stimulants.For me it helps with muscle fatigue during and immediately after the workout, but I would still feel the muscle burn/fatigue next day if I overdo it.The pills are regular sized, maybe a little on the slightly bigger size, easy to take (but I don't have issue with larger pills usually), don't caused me stomach issues.

I have a mixed opinion about this product. I will say this: it works. Now with that said, I forsure would recommend you do your homework before using it. Make sure you dont mix with any other supplements that may already have Beta Alanine in it. I think this is what happened to me. I never took the full dose as I was very lightheaded and nauseous from taking only 1-2 pills before a workout. I tried to experiment after one day, I squated and nearly blacked out after I finished my set. I tried to use it with preworkout and without. I found that with preworkout (I was using MusclePharm assault), you might aswell say goodbye to your bowels and your workout. Without preworkout, things were more bearable but still, I would feel completely different while taking these pills. Also, I dont know if anyone else mentioned this but I also noticed some serious stiffness is my scrotum after taking these pills, another cause for caution. It definitely does the job of making you push farther and longer and feel less fatigue however. I would just recommend to use with serious caution, I had never had tunnel vision while lifting... until I took this stuff.

I was looking for a good supplement that makes your body sweat during training sessions and add to stripping body fat if u follow all other steps.This Beta alinine is spot onI will definitely repeat my purchase

Great product

CarnoSyn Beta-Alanine , the best in-class. A great product at a great price from a trusted source , Now Nutrition. Why pay more?

I've had some luck with this product in the past but it seems the formula is not quite the same. It's largely hit or miss to best describe it. Sometimes I don't feel anything and when I do it's not very powerful at all. Definitely switching to a different brand but someone else that prefers the less heavy effects of beta alanine may find this product useful.
