Abstract
Provided are compositions comprising beta-alanylhistidine peptides and beta-alanines, and methods for administering these peptides and amino acids. In one aspect, the compositions and methods cause an increase in the blood plasma concentrations of beta-alanine and/or creatine.
Claims18
A human dietary supplement, comprising a beta-alanine in a unit dosage of between about 0.4 grams to 16 grams, wherein the supplement provides a unit dosage of beta-alanine.
A composition for increasing beta-alanylhistidine dipeptide in a subject, comprising a mixture of creatine and anserine or balenine in an amount for increasing beta-alanylhistidine dipeptide in a subject.
A dietary supplement, comprising a mixture of creatine and anserine or balenine.
A method of regulating hydronium ion concentration in a tissue of a subject, comprising administration of a composition comprising a mixture of creatine and anserine or balenine to the subject to increase beta-alanylhistidine dipeptide synthesis in a tissue, whereby the anaerobic working capacity of the tissue is increased.
