Muscle Support Mix Product Information Sheet

What Causes Muscle Exhaustion?
When you move, your body uses oxygen to break down glucose for energy. During physical activity, when there isn't enough oxygen available, your body makes lactate, which can be converted into energy without oxygen. Hydrogen ions are also produced during that process. Hydrogen ions decrease the pH level in your muscles, reducing your muscles’ ability to contract and resulting in fatigue.

Carnosine acts as a buffer against hydrogen ions, which helps reduce muscle fatigue and exhaustion.

Learn More About the Ingredients in Muscle Support Mix

Beta-Alanine
Beta-alanine is a naturally occurring, non-essential amino acid. When combined with L-histidine, another amino acid, beta-alanine increases muscle carnosine concentrations. Muscle carnosine is important because it acts as an intracellular buffer against hydrogen ions that can accumulate during high-intensity activity. An increase in hydrogen ions can cause a decline in muscle pH, which can lead to a faster onset of fatigue. Supplementing with beta-alanine has been shown to increase carnosine levels in the muscle and delays muscle fatigue.^1-3

Caffeine
Caffeine is classified as a stimulant. It increases activity in the central nervous system. It does this by acting as an adenosine antagonist. Adenosine is a neurotransmitter that binds to specific receptors and makes us feel drowsy. Caffeine binds to those same receptors, blocking the adenosine from working, which can have an enhancing effect.

One serving of the Muscle Support Mix contains 100 mg of natural caffeine from green tea extract. One stick pack contains caffeine equivalent to about one cup of coffee.

What is Beta-Alanine?
Beta-alanine is an amino acid that is produced naturally in the body and is used to synthesize carnosine. Carnosine helps reduce acid that accumulates in the muscle. Carnosine is important because it delays the muscle fatigue that can result from the accumulation of acid.^1-3

How are the ingredients beneficial?
Muscle fatigue can affect movement. One of the causes of muscle fatigue is the build-up of acid in your muscles. Beta-alanine increases carnosine production, and carnosine helps regulate acid build-up to help delay muscle fatigue.^1-3

How does L-theanine sharpen focus?
L-theanine is an amino acid that increases alpha waves in the brain. Alpha waves are produced in the brain of an individual during a relaxed state. Alpha wave activity is associated with improved concentration, cognitive function, and increased alertness.⁴
