Next Working Day Delivery Information:

Weekdays: Orders placed before 6:30pm will be delivered the next day - including on Saturdays.
Weekends: Orders placed before 1pm will be delivered the next day - including Sundays.
Bank Holidays: Orders will not be delivered on Bank Holidays. Any orders placed on a Bank Holiday will not be collected from our warehouse until the next non-holiday day, for delivery the following day.

Please note that Next Day Delivery excludes these postcodes: AB31-56, BF (all), BT (all), FK17-21, GY (all), HS (all), IM (all), IV (all), KA (all), KW (all), PA20-80, PH (all), TR21-25, ZE (all)

Please see specific promotion Terms & Conditions for details BFPO Addresses We do ship to BFPO addresses (with Royal Mail) but for active combat zones there is a strict 2kg weight limit (as with all deliveries to BFPO addresses), so please take this into account when ordering. As a guide, with careful packaging we can just get away with a 1.6kg tub. All orders under this weight limit will be treated as standard UK orders. All orders over this weight will be priced incrementally according to their weight (£5 per 2kg increase). If you have any queries regarding a BFPO address, please contact our Customer Service Team who will be happy to assist with your order.

SUPPORTS ACTIVE LIFESTYLES

A high-quality food supplement designed to support active lifestyles. Each serving provides 3g beta-alanine, a naturally occurring amino acid found in the body. 

OPTIMAL INTAKE

Provides 3g beta alanine per serving

CONVENIENT

High-quality food supplement

SUPPORTS FITNESS GOALS

Take alongside a balanced and healthy lifestyle

NATURALLY OCCURRING

Amino acid found in the body

  1. Vitamin B1 & B2 contribute to carbohydrate conversion
  2. Vitamin B6 aids protein metabolism.

IS BETA-ALANINE NATURALLY PRODUCED?

Beta-alanine is a non−essential amino acid that the body produces naturally and can also be obtained through your diet, primarily from animal protein sources. It plays a vital role in the production of carnosine, which is stored in your skeletal muscles.

Beta-Alanine capsules are ideal for those looking to support their nutritional intake as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

WHY CHOOSE?

  • A naturally ocurring amino acid
  • Ideal for those looking to support their active lifestyle
  • Increase amino acid intake during busy periods of exercise

SUGGESTED USE

Take 4 capsules daily.

FORMULATED BY SCIENCE

Beta-Alanine is a non-essential amino acid involved in the production of carnosine, a natural dipeptide in skeletal muscle in high concentrations.

 

THE SCIENCE

SiS Beta-alanine provides a convenient capsule format, delivering beta-alanine effectively into the body.

THE SCIENCE

Beta-alanine is a naturally occurring, non-essential amino acid that, when supplemented appropriately, increases skeletal muscle carnosine concentrations. This effect is particularly beneficial for athletes engaged in high-intensity activities, such as those requiring sustained efforts of approximately 1 to 10 minutes, or sports characterised by repeated bouts of high-intensity efforts, such as intermittent-based exercise.  

Fatigue during these short, intense efforts is multifactorial, with substantial evidence supporting the role of skeletal muscle acidosis, resulting from the accumulation of hydrogen ions (H+), as a primary factor limiting performance. In response to this challenge, skeletal muscle employs several intracellular and extracellular buffering mechanisms to mitigate exercise-induced acidosis. Carnosine, a key intracellular buffer, plays a critical role in this process due to its nitrogen-containing imidazole side chain, which binds to H+ and slows the decline in muscle pH during high-intensity exercise.

An increase in carnosine concentration has been associated with improvements in performance across various athletic contexts. For example, research has demonstrated enhanced sprint and intermittent-running performance in soccer players following chronic beta-alanine supplementation within the recommended dosage range. Additionally, peak and mean power output during sprinting at the end of a prolonged simulated cycling race was significantly improved in individuals who supplemented with beta-alanine.

For athletes seeking to enhance training capacity and competitive performance, SiS Beta-alanine provides a convenient capsule format, delivering beta-alanine effectively into the body.
