The results showed significant improvement in VO2 peak, time to fatigue, and lean body mass for the beta
alanine group.
Not exact matches
The lean
group had significantly less insulin resistance as well as lower levels of a liver enzyme called
alanine aminotransferase (ALT) that correlates with liver damage.
In addition, the thienyl
group is suitable for the side - chain of the amino acid at position 1, as is evident from the high CXCR4 binding activity of compound 25, [β -(2 - thienyl)- D -
alanine (D - Thi) 1]-2, but not compound 24.
A
group of researchers published a paper in the International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) reviewing several published studies on beta -
alanine supplementation and concluded that four weeks of beta -
alanine supplementation (4 — 6 g / day) may improve skeletal muscle mass and exercise performance (although the effects on strength and endurance exercise beyond 25 minutes needs further study, according to the researchers).
As for beta -
alanine and muscle growth there are a few studies that note that even when performance between
groups is controlled for (ie.
In dogs with primary tumors, the alkaline phosphatase (hydrolase enzyme responsible for removing phosphate
groups from many types of molecules),
alanine transferase (enzyme found in the liver and other tissues) are usually elevated.
