Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product Hit BCAA 10:1:1 Peach. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately, short-term. Oral beta-alanine, including a specific commercial product (CarnoSyn, Natural Alternatives International), has been used with apparent safety in doses up to 6.4 grams daily for 12 weeks in younger adults (14611,16025,16439,16441,18227,94357,97972,101028,101029,104144,106717), and up to 3.2 grams daily for 12 weeks in adults aged 55 years and older (16442,97955,97961,97965).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using in medicinal amounts.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. BCAAs 12 grams daily have not been associated with significant adverse effects in studies lasting for up to 2 years (68,72,73,74,10117,10146,10147,37120,92643,97531,103351,103352). ...when used intravenously and appropriately. BCAAs are an FDA-approved injectable product (13309).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally in dietary amounts of 71-134 mg/kg daily (11120,13308).
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when larger, supplemental doses are used orally and appropriately for up to 6 months (13307,13308,37127).
PREGNANCY:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using amounts greater than those found in food.
Although adverse effects have not been reported in humans, some animal research suggests that consumption of supplemental isoleucine, a BCAA, during the first half of pregnancy may have variable effects on birth weight, possibly due to abnormal placental development (103350).
LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using amounts greater than those found in food.
Although the safety of increased BCAA consumption during lactation is unclear, some clinical research suggests that a higher concentration of isoleucine and leucine in breastmilk during the first 6 months postpartum is not associated with infant growth or body composition at 2 weeks, 2 months, or 6 months (108466).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. In clinical trials, L-citrulline has been used with apparent safety for up to 2 months at doses of 1.5-6 grams daily (94954,94956,94961,94962,100974). Doses of up to 15 grams have also been used as single doses or within a 24 hour period (16470,16473).
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately.
L-citrulline has been used with apparent safety in infants at a dose of 0.17 grams/kg daily (16472). It has also been used in children 6.5-10 years of age at a dose of 7.5 grams daily for 26 weeks (100976). ...when used intravenously and appropriately. An intravenous bolus dose of L-citrulline 150 mg/kg followed by 9 mg/kg/hour for 48 hours has been used safely in children under 6 years of age (16469).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally in amounts commonly found in foods. Tyrosine has Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) status in the US (4912).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately in medicinal amounts, short-term. Tyrosine has been used safely in doses up to 150 mg/kg daily for up to 3 months (7210,7211,7215). ...when used topically and appropriately (6155).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of tyrosine during pregnancy and lactation when used in medicinal amounts.
Some pharmacokinetic research shows that taking a single dose of tyrosine 2-10 grams orally can modestly increase levels of free tyrosine in breast milk. However, total levels are not affected, and levels remain within the range found in infant formulas. Therefore, it is not clear if the increase in free tyrosine is a concern (91467).
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Hit BCAA 10:1:1 Peach. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Theoretically, BCAAs might alter the effects of antidiabetes medications.
Details
|
BCAAs in large doses can reduce the effects of levodopa.
Details
BCAAs may compete with levodopa for transport systems in the intestine and brain and decrease the effectiveness of levodopa (66,2719). Small clinical studies how that concomitant ingestion of protein or high doses of leucine or isoleucine (100 mg/kg) and levodopa can exacerbate tremor, rigidity, and the "on-off" syndrome in patients with Parkinson disease (3291,3292,3293,3294).
|
Theoretically, concomitant use of L-citrulline with antihypertensive drugs might have additive effects and increase the chance of hypotension.
Details
|
Theoretically, concurrent use of phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors and L-citrulline might result in additive vasodilation.
Details
L-citrulline is converted to L-arginine, which can increase nitric oxide and cause vasodilation (7822,16460,16461). Theoretically, taking L-arginine with PDE-5 inhibitors might have additive vasodilatory and hypotensive effects. However, in studies evaluating the combined use of L-arginine and sildenafil for erectile dysfunction, hypotension was not reported (105065).
|
Theoretically, tyrosine might decrease the effectiveness of levodopa.
Details
Tyrosine and levodopa compete for absorption in the proximal duodenum by the large neutral amino acid (LNAA) transport system (2719). Advise patients to separate doses of tyrosine and levodopa by at least 2 hours.
|
Theoretically, tyrosine might have additive effects with thyroid hormone medications.
Details
Tyrosine is a precursor to thyroxine and might increase levels of thyroid hormones (7212).

General
...Orally, beta-alanine seems to be generally well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Flushing, paresthesia.
Gastrointestinal ...While rare, digestion problems have been reported with oral beta-alanine use (94341).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, beta-alanine can cause a dose-dependent feeling of pins and needles (paresthesias) along with skin flushing (16438,94333,94335,94338,94341,94342,94349,101028,101029,106711). This generally starts on the scalp within 20 minutes of the dose, spreading to most of the body, and lasting for about an hour. This was described as severe at a dose of 40 mg/kg, tolerable at a dose of 20 mg/kg, and very mild at a dose of 10 mg/kg. At the lowest dose it only occurred in 25% of subjects (16438). In some studies, beta-alanine has been given as frequently as 8 times per day so that each dose can be kept below 10 mg/kg (16438,16439). Other clinical research shows that taking beta-alanine in a tablet formulation eliminates the presence of parasthesias at a dose of 1.6 grams when compared with a solution made from powdered beta-alanine. This effect may be due to delayed absorption (97974,97975). Although paresthesias still occur with sustained-release formulations, their presence is less frequent when compared with immediate-release formulations (101029).
General
...Orally or intravenously, BCAAs are generally well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Abdominal distension, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting.
All routes of administration: High doses can lead to fatigue and loss of motor coordination.
Cardiovascular ...Orally, a single case of hypertension following the use of BCAAs has been reported (37143).
Dermatologic ...Orally, a single case of skin blanching following the use of BCAAs has been reported (681). It is not known if this effect was due to use of BCAAs or other factors.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, BCAAs can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal distension. Nausea and diarrhea has been reported to occur in about 10% of people taking BCAAs (10117,37143,92643,97531).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally and intravenously, BCAAs can cause fatigue and loss of motor coordination due to increased plasma ammonia levels (693,694,10117). Short-term use of 60 grams of BCAAs containing leucine, isoleucine, and valine for 7 days in patients with normal metabolic function seems to increase levels of ammonia, but not to toxic plasma levels (10117). However, liver function should be monitored with high doses or long-term use (10117). Due to the potential of increased plasma levels of ammonia and subsequent fatigue and loss of motor coordination, BCAAs should be used cautiously before or during activities where performance depends on motor coordination (75). Orally, BCAAs may also cause headache, but this has only been reported in one clinical trial (681).
General
...Orally, L-citrulline seems to be generally well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Gastrointestinal discomfort, heartburn.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, gastrointestinal intolerance, stomach discomfort, and heartburn have been reported with L-citrulline use (94955,94963,94966).
Genitourinary ...Orally, 2 of 25 patients with pulmonary hypertension reported increased urinary frequency and edema while taking 1 gram of powdered L-citrulline in water daily (94963).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Orally, 2 of 25 patients with pulmonary hypertension reported cough while taking 1 gram of powdered L-citrulline in water daily (94963).
General
...Orally, tyrosine seems to be well tolerated.
No serious adverse effects have been documented; however, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Fatigue, headache, heartburn, and nausea.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, tyrosine can cause nausea and heartburn when taken at a dose of 150 mg/kg (7211). Taking tyrosine 4 grams daily in combination with 5-hydroxytryptophan 800 mg and carbidopa 100 mg can cause diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. These effects can be mitigated by lowering the dosage (918).
Musculoskeletal ...Orally, larger doses of tyrosine (150 mg/kg) can cause arthralgia, but this is uncommon (7211).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, larger doses of tyrosine (150 mg/kg) can cause headache and fatigue (7211). Taking a combination of tyrosine 4 grams, 5-hydroxytryptophan 800 mg, and carbidopa 100 mg can cause drowsiness and agitation. These effects can be mitigated by lowering the dosage (918).
