http://professionalwhey.com How Does Beta Alanine Work?
Most of the evidence of the effectiveness of Beta-Alanine is quite recent, and the mechanism by which it helps athletes is supposed to work by converting Beta Alanine into the amino acid carnosine in the muscles. Muscles with higher carnosine levels can contract harder for longer and produce greater force, leading to better muscular endurance and performance.[2]
Carnosine works as buffering agent, reducing the amount of chemical by-products during intense exercise, such as lactic acid in your muscles.[3] Not to be confused with bicarbonate of soda which buffers lactic acid in the bloodstream, Beta Alanine serves as an intramuscular buffer, allowing you to do more.[4] Studies have shown Beta Alanine supplementation can increase intramuscular carnosine levels by up to 64%.[5],[6]
What does that mean? You exercise with less fatigue.
How? It buffers the acidity in the muscle.
Very Different to Creatine
So if its the next creatine, does that mean thats the end for creatine? No! Beta Alanine and creatine work very differently. Creatine provides a source of energy to muscle. Beta Alanine is a precursor of another compound – carnosine found in muscle – that buffers acidity and prolongs training.[7] However they can work synergistically and evidence points us to believe that creatine works better for the 1-6 rep range whilst Beta Alanine works better in the 7-12 rep range.
The Evidence
Most of the research available agrees that muscle carnosine synthesis is limited by the availability of Beta-Alanine.[8],[9] Therefore fatigue kicks in when carnosine levels are low.
Researchers in 2008 observed Beta Alanine supplementation in 8 male experienced weight trainees taking 4.8 gm per day for 30 days on resistance exercise performance.[10] Their resistance exercise protocol consisted of 6 sets of 12 repetitions of the squat exercise at 70% of their one-repetition maximum (1-RM) with 1.5 minutes of rest between each set. After 4 weeks, the Beta-Alanine group was able to perform 22% more total repetitions.[11]
There is also evidence that Beta Alanine effects slow twitch muscle fibres as well as fast twitch fibres and therefore helps endurance athletes. Two recent studies found that cyclists who supplemented with Beta-Alanine were able to get 13% more total work done after 4 weeks, and 16% more after 10 weeks compared to a group who didnt use Beta-Alanine.[12],[13]

It is very common that I read questions or statements from new Atkineers saying, “How come I feel so tired?” “Why do I have such a headache?” “I have no energy what is this diet doing to me!” One of the problems is no one forewarned them about Induction flu. Induction flu is simply the body burning its last remaining glucose and stored glycogen for energy, and suffering withdrawal effects. It is very similar to what happens when runners “hit the wall” and cyclist “bonk.” In addition to the physical withdrawal symptoms there are the mental symptoms as well. Think of drug addict, are they necessarily pleasant to be around or in high spirits even though they are doing something good. Well the carb addict has the same reaction; I personally was irritable for the first 2 or 3 weeks as I had to figure out how to eat, exert control over what entered my mouth, and regain new comfort foods. It is a dramatic change, and some people resist change.
The good news is it is just temporary. It typically only last a few days, but for some the mental effects might last longer. It also shows you are on the right path and making true progress on getting rid of the excess fat. The silver lining is indeed that by the end if you continue the follow the plan you will be burning fat for fuel.
You’ll have to watch the video for my suggestions on how to lessen the effects.

There is no hard and fast answer to how much a person should weigh in order to be healthy. But, women need to be concerned about weight because it can and does affect overall health. Obesity, or being overweight, can result in premature death and can contribute to many problems, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, diabetes, cancer, breathing problems, arthritis, and problems with pregnancy, labor and delivery.
The first, and best, thing to do is to talk with your health care provider about your weight. Together, you can talk about what a healthy weight is for you, based on your height, build (bone size, amount of muscle) and age.
You can also use a tool called the Body Mass Index (BMI) to give you a pound range for a healthy weight. You take your weight and height and see where you fall on the BMI table for adults (see below). There is also a handy BMI calculator at the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute’s web site (see resources at the end of this FAQ).
Some general guidelines for losing weight safely are:
• Eat fewer calories. The best formula for losing weight is to decrease the number of calories you get while increasing your physical activity every day. Depending on how active you are, you may need between 1,500 — 2,500 calories a day. A safe plan is to eat 300 to 500 fewer calories a day to lose 1 to 2 pounds a week.
• Lose weight slowly. It is best to aim for losing 1/2 to 2 pounds a week. By improving eating and exercise habits, you will develop a healthier lifestyle. And, this will help you to control your weight over time. You will also lower your chances of getting heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. ‘Crash’ diets may take off pounds faster, but can cause you to gain back even more pounds than you lost after you stop the diet.
• Exercise. Get active for at least 30 minutes every day. You don’t have to train for a marathon to be active! Brisk walking, gardening, riding a bicycle, tennis and dancing all count as exercise. You can also break up the 30 minutes into three 10-minute periods. To get even more active every day, you can do things like park farther away from the mall in the parking lot and take the stairs instead of the elevator. The idea is to use up more calories than you eat each day. This will keep the calories from being stored as fat in your body.
• Eat less fat and sugar. This will help lower the number of calories you eat each day. Select foods whose labels say low, light or reduced to describe calories or fat, including milk products and cheese. Eat lean types of meat, poultry, and fish. Eat less sugar and fewer sweets (don’t forget that soda and juice can have lots of sugar). Drink less or no alcohol.
• Eat a wide variety of foods, including starches and dairy products. This helps your body to get the nutrients and vitamins it needs to be healthy. Include plenty of vegetables, fruits, grain products and whole grains each day. Don’t skip dairy products — there are many good tasting low, no, and reduced fat milks, yogurts, cheeses, ice creams, and other products to choose from. Proper calcium intake is needed for all women to prevent bone loss.
Starch is an important source of energy that all bodies need, even when a person is trying to lose weight. It is found in foods like potatoes, rice, pasta, bread, beans, and some vegetables. Foods high in starch can become high in fat and calories when you eat them in large amounts, or when they are made with rich sauces, oils, or other high-fat toppings like butter, sour cream, or mayonnaise. Stick to starchy foods that are high in fiber, like whole grains, beans, and peas.
• Practice portion control. Eat smaller amounts of food at each meal. Let go of belonging to the ‘clean plate club.’ Don’t feel like you have to eat everything on your plate, even when eating out. You can also try eating more small meals throughout the day, rather than three large meals.
• Get support. It can be hard to start a weight loss program, particularly if you are out of shape and not used to exercising. Ask your family and friends for support. Try to find an exercise buddy. Make your activity fun and social — go on a walk or hike with a friend or learn a new sport like tennis or ice-skating.
• Treat yourself (once in a while). When trying to lose weight, we all feel tempted to ‘cheat’ by eating a favorite, rich food like cake or cookies. But, sometimes it can be helpful to eat a small amount of a favorite food. This may keep you from craving it and overeating if you do ‘cheat.’
