简要总结
Although β-alanine (BA) has been shown to be an effective ergogenic aid, little information exists on the safety of chronic supplementation despite potential concerns. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of chronic BA supplementation on muscle taurine content, blood clinical markers and sensory side-effects during 24 weeks of BA supplementation.
