especially when it��s high intensity exercise, our bodies accumulate a large

amount of hydrogen ions (H+), causing our muscles��

pH to drop (become more acidic). This process is occurring

whether you feel a burn or not.

As our muscles pH quickly drops, so does their ability

to contract forcibly and maintain a high level of

performance throughout your workout session. Not

being able to perform and maintain forceful muscular

contractions and push your body to the limit during

your workout session, seriously hampers your ability

to maximally overload your muscles and force new

muscle gains.

The breakdown of ATP and the subsequent rise in

H+ concentrations occur in all of our energy systems

but H+ buildup is most prevalent in an energy system

called glycolysis, which also produces lactic acid. At

physiological pH, lactic acid dissociates H+ and is the

primary source of released H+ ions during exercise,

causing pH to drop. It is the released H+ from lactic

acid that causes muscular performance problems, not

the leftover lactate ions as many incorrectly believe.

While lactic acid is the primary source of released

H+, it is not the only source. H+ ions are also being

released at a rapid rate when you break down the high

energy compound ATP during exercise.

Where it comes from:

?Beta-Alanine is a non-essential amino acid found

naturally in both the body. Whereas Alpha-Alanine

is found in many food sources including eggs, meat,

chicken, plants and some dairy products, Beta-Alanine

is made in the body by the enzyme Beta-Ureidopropionase

via Beta-Alanine Synthase. Beta-Alanine is

a breakdown product from carnosine and is also a

component in pantothenic acid (Vitamin B-5).

When beta-alanine enters the muscle cell, it

becomes what we call the ��rate limiting substrate��

to carnosine synthesis. By rate limiting, we mean

that

without beta-alanine, carnosine does not get

produced.

So why is carnosine so important? Carnosine is a

dipeptide found mainly in fast-twitch muscles whose

primary function, is buffering hydrogen ions (H+) and

prevents pH levels in muscle from dropping to low

acidic levels. Low acidity creates that ��burn�� in your

muscles, causing fatigue and forcing you to muscular

failure. In a more acidic environment ATP is less

effective and the release of calcium, a key component

to muscle contraction, is hindered substantially. With

higher carnosine levels in muscle, however, you can

prevent the drop in pH. With H+ buffered, you continue

to squeeze out reps, prolong a high intensity run, or

you simply lift heavier weights for more reps.

Why not just take extra Carnosine?

?First of all, carnosine is not absorbed effectively in

humans. When ingested and digested, only a small

amount remains intact, but that in itself creates

problems. The intact carnosine is hydrolyzed into

histidine and beta-alanine, which is then taken up by

skeletal muscle and synthesized back into carnosine.

Due to this initial hydrolysis, the ingested carnosine

does not remain intact when taken up into muscle.

The only value you gain by ingesting carnosine is the

beta-alanine that��s formed, since it��s the beta-alanine

that can ��remake�� carnosine in muscle. As such, it

makes a whole lot more sense to take your betaalanine

straight

The Power of Instant Dispersion

?

Technology:

?

?

?

Instant Dispersion Technology (IDT) is a process that

?

?

reduces particle size for easier dispersion into water. It

typically does NOT take into account particle structure

�C just size. IDT takes micronizing, 1 step further,

and produces a superior, even fi ner particle size, for

maximum dispersion. IDT allows for greater available

surface area for increased assimilation, ensuring

a fully ��reacted�� molecularly-bonded product for

improved stability and superior solubility �C thus giving

us better results than other glutamine products!

Suggested Use:

?

?

?

?

?

Mix 1 dose (1 scoop = 3.2g) with 125ml (4 fl oz.)

?

?

water, juice or your favorite drink. For best results use

between 2-4 serving per day depending on bodyweight

and exercise level.

health care practitioner. Not intended for use by persons under the age of 18.?
