Betaina

Effetti

Here are some of the beneficial effects of betaine that boost physical performance.

Increases endurance and muscle strength

Its osmolyte function (cellular hydration) leads to better performance in strength training and high-intensity sports. (1)

Supports cardiovascular health

It lowers homocysteine levels in the blood, a compound linked at high levels to increased cardiovascular risk. By reducing these levels, betaine helps lower inflammation and potential damage to blood vessels, supporting heart health. (2, 3)

Faster recovery

Betaine can improve recovery between training sessions by protecting against protein denaturation, promoting secretion of insulin-like growth factor and growth hormone, and lowering cortisol after intense exercise. (4, 5) (6) (7)
