BETA ALANINE
Beta-alanine is a precursor to carnosine, a dipeptide found in muscle tissue. Supplementing with beta-alanine can raise carnosine levels in muscles over time. Increased carnosine levels may help buffer the accumulation of lactic acid during exercise, delaying muscle fatigue and allowing for longer endurance. By increasing muscle carnosine levels, beta-alanine supplementation has been shown to enhance exercise capacity and performance, especially during high-intensity and short-duration activities. It may be particularly beneficial for activities involving repeated bouts of intense exercise with short recovery periods, such as sprints or weightlifting. Beta-alanine can help delay the onset of muscle fatigue by reducing the acidity in muscles and preventing the drop in pH that occurs during intense exercise. This may allow you to push through more reps, maintain higher power output, or sustain physical performance for longer periods.*

HIMALAYAN PINK SALT
Sodium plays a crucial role in hydration by helping to maintain the balance of fluids in the body. One of the key functions of sodium in the hydration process is its ability to help regulate fluid balance and promote fluid retention. Sodium is an electrolyte, a substance that dissociates into ions when dissolved in water. These ions, particularly sodium ions (Na+), help maintain the balance of fluids both inside and outside cells through a process called osmosis. When you consume sodium, it increases the concentration of sodium ions in the extracellular fluid (fluid outside the cells). This higher concentration of sodium ions outside the cells creates an osmotic gradient, which encourages water to move from the lower concentration inside the cells to the higher concentration outside the cells. As a result, this movement of water helps to keep the body hydrated by preventing excessive water loss through urine or sweat. Furthermore, sodium also plays a role in maintaining proper nerve and muscle function. It helps transmit nerve impulses and is involved in muscle contractions, including the contractions that facilitate water absorption in the kidneys. By maintaining proper nerve and muscle function, sodium indirectly supports hydration by ensuring the body's systems work effectively.*
L-THEANINE
L-Theanine has been found to increase alpha brain waves, which are associated with a state of relaxation and mental alertness. This effect may help induce a calmer and more focused mental state, promoting a sense of well-being. Some people experience negative side effects when consuming caffeine alone, such as jitteriness, increased heart rate, or anxiety. L-Theanine has been shown to counteract these side effects by promoting relaxation and reducing the negative impact of caffeine on the nervous system. When L-Theanine and Caffeine are combined, they can promote a state of focused relaxation, enhancing mental clarity and attention without the jitters or anxiety that caffeine alone may cause. The combination of L-Theanine and caffeine has been found to enhance cognitive performance. Studies have shown that this combination can improve memory, attention, and overall cognitive function. It may also help in multitasking and reducing mental fatigue. L-Theanine has been reported to have mood-enhancing properties by promoting a sense of relaxation and reducing stress. When combined with caffeine, which can increase alertness and energy levels, it can create a balanced and focused state of mind without the typical agitation associated with caffeine consumption.*
