Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Pre-workout supplements containing caffeine should be used responsibly and are intended for healthy adults. Consider your total caffeine intake from coffee, tea, energy drinks and other supplements throughout the day.
Creatine has an authorised health claim for increasing physical performance during successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise when consumed at 3g daily. Beta-alanine may cause a harmless temporary tingling sensation (paraesthesia), which is a normal response in some individuals.
Maintain good hydration before, during and after exercise, particularly when using performance supplements.
