I was thinking of ordering some bulk beta-alanine and i always read that the serving size was like between 1.6-3.2 grams, but the stuff that i wanna get says that the serving size is 1/8 of a teaspoon, or 500 grams? im wondering if its just because this stuff is like really pure or if i will still have to take about 2-3 grams for it to be usefull?

...are you sure you don't mean 500mg?Originally Posted by JDomin0
1/8 of a teaspoon of BA is nowhere near 1g...let alone 500

SNS beta alanine caps will be more convenient for you. Just take 3 caps, 2x a day.

yes of course i meant 500 mg lol sorry...and this is what the instructions are:
The suggested serving size for beta alanine is 500 milligrams one to three times a day, depending on individual needs. A level 1/8 teaspoon contains 546 milligrams, so a little less than a level 1/8 teaspoon will yield the desired amount.

What does beta alanine do? And a lot of the things I have read about it are not to positive, like it may cause cancer and stuff?

You still want 3-4g daily...not sure what brand you are looking at but their recommended dose isn't nearly enough.
They are correct about splitting the doses though.

What brand is this product?
Rather peculiar instructions to give.
