How to use
Mix 1 serving (4 g) in 170 ml of water. Consume in divided doses. Take one serving in the morning after waking up and one serving before training. Beta-alanine works gradually, so daily use, including on non-training days, is important for the best results.

No, this product contains aspartame, which is a source of phenylalanine, so it is not suitable for people with phenylketonuria – this is also explicitly stated on the product label. If you have PKU or another disorder affecting phenylalanine metabolism, choose instead one of the neutral, unsweetened beta-alanine products from the same ingredient category that do not contain artificial sweeteners. If in any doubt about dietary supplements, always consult a doctor or dietitian familiar with your diagnosis.
Splitting the daily dose into two smaller intakes (instead of one large one) is consistent with expert recommendations, since single doses above approximately 800 mg-1.6 g with standard formulations more often cause pronounced skin tingling (Trexler et al., 2015). Additionally, beta-alanine works through gradual accumulation of muscle carnosine, not through an acute effect right before training, so the timing of intake relative to exercise is not crucial – the total daily amount and consistency over several weeks are more important (Trexler et al., 2015).
Aspartame and acesulfame K are among the most extensively researched artificial sweeteners, and regulatory bodies such as EFSA consider them safe for the general population within established acceptable daily intake levels, with the exception of people with phenylketonuria, who must avoid aspartame due to its phenylalanine content. If you are otherwise healthy and do not have this metabolic disorder, consuming sweeteners within one daily dose of a dietary supplement does not pose a particular risk. If you have specific concerns or a health condition, consult a doctor or pharmacist.
The lower price is partly due to the smaller packaging (250 g) and the brand's positioning, and partly due to the composition – instead of pure, unflavored beta-alanine, the product contains added flavoring, maltodextrin and artificial sweeteners, which are cheaper ingredients than an additional share of the active substance itself. The active beta-alanine content per dose (3200 mg) is still reasonable and close to the lower end of the clinically studied daily range (Trexler et al., 2015), so the lower price does not necessarily mean significantly lower effectiveness, but rather a less "clean" formula compared to unflavored products from the same ingredient category.
