Beta-Alanine, or rather beta-alanine and 3-aminopropanoic acid, is also considered the only naturally occurring beta amino acid, despite being part of larger bioactive molecules like beta-peptides. Beta-alanine is a rate limiting precursor to the dipeptide carnosine, which means that carnosine levels depend on the available amounts of beta-alanine. Carnosine is abundant in brain tissues and muscles. It has been observed that supplementation with Beta Alanine in fact does increase the levels of carnosine, which resulted in athletes experiencing less fatigue and allowing them to boost the amount of muscular work, i.e. the training that can be done. In clinical trials conducted over ten weeks with supplementing Beta Alanine to test subjects, intramuscular carnosine levels were measured at eighty per cent higher levels than before the test.

Vitamin C is well known for its powerful ability to help boost the immune system as well as fight off damage causing free radicals. As an anti-oxidant, vitamin c binds with free radicals, preventing them from damaging cells. This damage can cause early aging and even has been linked to some cancers. By taking vitamin C supplements, you are helping prevent these free-radicals, as well as giving your immune system a boost as well. Vitamin C is integral to cellular metabolism as well and a lack of vitamin C can cause a myriad of issues, including scurvy.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant that is known for protecting the tissues of the body from damage caused by free radicals.
