β-Alanine is rapidly developing as one of the most popular sport supplements used by strength/power athletes worldwide. The popularity of β-alanine stems from its unique ability to enhance intramuscular buffering capacity and thereby attenuating fatigue. This review will provide an overview of the physiology that underlies the mechanisms of action behind β-alanine, examine dosing schemes, and examine the studies that have been conducted on the efficacy of this supplement. In addition, the effect that β-alanine has on body mass changes or whether it can stimulate changes in aerobic capacity also will be discussed. The review also will begin to explore the potential health benefits that β-alanine may have on older adult populations. Discussion will examine the potential adverse effects associated with this supplement as well as the added benefits of combining β-alanine with creatine.
β-丙氨酸正迅速成为全球力量/爆发力运动员使用的最受欢迎的运动补剂之一。β-丙氨酸之所以受欢迎，源于其独特的增强肌肉内缓冲能力从而减轻疲劳的能力。本综述将概述β-丙氨酸作用机制背后的生理学原理，研究给药方案，并审视关于这种补剂功效的已开展研究。此外，还将讨论β-丙氨酸对体重变化的影响，以及它是否能刺激有氧能力的变化。本综述还将开始探讨β-丙氨酸对老年人群体可能具有的潜在健康益处。讨论将审视与这种补剂相关的潜在不良反应，以及将β-丙氨酸与肌酸联合使用的额外益处。
