Ergogenic Dietry Supplement (Buffering Agent)

Benefits

  • Increases intramuscular carnosine, which buffers hydrogen ions (H⁺) and helps delay muscle acidosis during high-intensity exercise.

  • May improve performance in high-intensity / repeated bouts, power output, and training adaptations (e.g. strength gains) in some context.

  • May reduce neuromuscular fatigue, possibly helping maintain performance across repeated efforts.
