Study to Analyze the Efficacy of Chronic Intake With a β-alanine Supplement in Recreational Cyclists

Randomized, controlled, double-blind, single-center, controlled clinical trial with three parallel arms depending on the product consumed (experimental product dose 1 and dose 2 and placebo product) to measure the efficacy of 28-day consumption of a sustained-release beta alanine on the physiological efficacy of physical performance in recreational cyclists.

Subjects meeting the selection criteria will be randomly assigned to each of the study groups (investigational product dose 1 or dose 2, or placebo, depending on the group to which they have been assigned). The product to be consumed is beta alanine. Participants will consume the product for 28 days. They will have to take 4 intakes every three hours, the first intake being two hours after waking up. The study subjects will have to make 2 visits to the laboratory. Physical performance and physiological changes will be evaluated with a 10-minute time trial. The first test will be performed without product consumption and the second after 28 days of consumption.
