What is Klean SR Beta-Alanine of Klean Athlete?

Klean SR Beta-Alanine delays fatigue, supports muscle endurance, and supports exercise capacity during short periods of intense effort.^‡

No matter your sport or athletic discipline, if you're training at high intensities for extended periods of time, you know the feeling of lactic acid buildup. It isn't fun and it quickly slows you down. The familiar "burn" is actually caused by hydrogen ions, which are generated in large quantities whenever lactic acid accumulates. The muscle naturally buffers these ions with carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine). The carnosine precursor beta alanine significantly increases muscular buffering capacity, enabling you to sustain intense efforts and train more effectively. Klean SR Beta-Alanine delays fatigue, supports muscle endurance, and supports exercise capacity during short periods of intense effort. The ingredient SR Carnosyn^®is a clinically researched, sustained-release formula that simplifies daily dosing and enables better muscle retention, with fewer side effects and simpler dosing than standard beta-alanine. Train harder, stronger and more effectively with Klean SR Beta-Alanine today!^‡

FUNCTIONS AND MECHANISM OF ACTION

Carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine) is present in high concentrations of human skeletal muscle. The rate limiting precursor in carnosine synthesis is beta-alanine (BA). Hydrogen (H+) ions are produced when lactic acid levels rise during prolonged and intense exercise. The production of lactic acid can also result in higher acidity within the muscle and decreases the ability of the muscle to contract. BA helps balance pH levels during high intensity exercise. Higher carnosine levels in the muscle buffer the production of hydrogen ions. This allows for the muscle to contract with force and maintain endurance by delaying the onset of muscular fatigue. Increased muscle carnosine content is associated with performance enhancement in exercises of short, intense nature and in repeated maximal contraction bouts. Double-blind, placebo controlled human trials have shown that the work capacity of muscles during intense exercise lasting 60-240 seconds was improved in BA compared to placebo, as was exercise of greater than 240 seconds. ‡

SR CarnoSyn® is a sustained release formula that improves muscle retention of carnosine. The sustained release profile allows for higher BA daily dosage which leads to greater retention of carnosine in the muscle. The greater retention of carnosine leads to higher working capacity of the muscle. Studies published on SR CarnoSyn® beta-alanine have shown that 3.2-6.4 grams/day for 4-6 weeks increases ventilatory threshold, time to onset of muscle fatigue, time to exhaustion, and total work done in cycling exercises in untrained young adult male and female volunteers. ‡

SUGGESTED USE

Take 2 tablets 2 times daily or as directed by a trainer, coach, or healthcare professional.

Athletes may choose to obtain optimum beta-alanine intake by employing a “loading” phase into their workout regimen by ingesting higher amounts per day for a period of time before reducing the beta-alanine intake amount to a more typical maintenance dose of 3.2 g. Several peer-reviewed studies have used SR CarnoSyn® to maximize beta-alanine loading with the dosage amounts of up to 6.4 g. Using this patented sustained release formulation, paresthesia is reduced and higher doses of beta-alanine can be ingested. Once tolerance levels are determined, users can then create their own dosing regimen to reach a threshold goal of 90 grams taken over 28 days.

SIDE EFFECTS

SR Carnosyn® is a sustained release beta-alanine formulation designed to slow absorption, improve body retention, and reduce the sensory sensations in the skin known as paresthesia, a common side effect of betaalanine consumption.
