Benefits of Beta Alanine for Horses

CEN Beta Alanine is 100% pure amino acid that helps slow fatigue by supporting the natural ability of the muscles to cope with lactic acid build up. This is a must for the performance horses.

It helps to build condition and improve recovery in animals who are competing at speed, jumping or performing over long periods of time. Beta-alanine is the building block of carnosine, a molecule that acts to buffer acid in muscles

Supplementation with Beta-alanine for horses can help to; support the immune system, improve stamina levels via buffering lactic acid build-up, increase muscle health and reduce oxidative stress in horses with recurrent exertional rhabdomyolysis (RER), also known as tying-up.

Stamina

Beta-alanine can help improve exercise performance and delay fatigue in horses. It increases muscle carnosine levels, which can help buffer the build-up of lactic acid and hydrogen ions during high-intensity exercise (1)(4).

Muscle Health / Tying Up

Beta-alanine supplementation has been shown to improve muscle function and reduce oxidative stress in horses with recurrent exertional rhabdomyolysis (RER), also known as tying-up (2).

Immune System

Beta-alanine can also have a positive effect on the immune system by enhancing the production of nitric oxide, which can help fight infections and diseases

Conditioning

Beta-alanine supplementation has been found to improve body composition in horses by increasing lean muscle mass and reducing body fat (1).
