Quick answers about this product
What is SciTec Beta Alanine 800mg?
SciTec Beta Alanine 800mg is a capsule supplement providing beta-alanine, a non-essential amino acid. Each bottle holds 150 capsules, and each capsule is labelled at 800 mg of beta-alanine. The product is made in the UK.
How does beta-alanine relate to carnosine in SciTec capsules?
SciTec explains that muscle cells use beta-alanine to synthesise carnosine. Carnosine is found in high concentration in skeletal muscle, especially in type II fast-twitch fibres, which is why SciTec Beta Alanine is popular with athletes.
Is SciTec Beta Alanine 800mg suitable for vegetarians?
No. SciTec Beta Alanine 800mg capsules are made with bovine gelatin, which comes from cattle. People following a vegetarian or vegan diet would need to look for a capsule made without gelatin.
What else is in SciTec Beta Alanine capsules?
Along with beta-alanine and bovine gelatin, SciTec Beta Alanine capsules contain magnesium stearate as an anti-caking agent and the colours titanium dioxide, black iron oxide and brilliant black BN. These give the capsules their colour.
