General Questions
Paresthesia is a harmless tingling sensation that many people feel after ingesting instant release beta-alanine. As the paresthesia threshold varies from person to person the level of tingling experienced may vary.
Sustained RX® products contain the only beta-alanine established as a New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) by the FDA. Utilizing an NDI ingredient reaffirms our commitment to delivering the highest-quality supplements, and further distinguishes our brand from generic forms of beta-alanine and carnosine with questionable quality and effectiveness.
GRAS is an acronym for the phrase Generally Recognized As Safe. An ingredient that is self-affirmed GRAS means it is as safe as food, which is recognized and evaluated by experts with scientific training and experience. Sustained RX® products contain the only beta-alanine with self-affirmed GRAS status.
All Sustained RX® products are manufactured at FDA registered facilities, under a stringent quality control process which complies with current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations enforced by the FDA, and various other national and international agencies—to be both safe and effective—containing zero banned substances, allergens, or gluten.

Perfect Synergy® Questions
Everyone can benefit from increased levels of carnosine in their bodies. Vegans and vegetarians in particular can benefit as their diets don’t contain the animal proteins found in meat, fish, and poultry, which are the main food sources of beta-alanine and carnosine.
Ingested carnosine breaks down in the body into beta-alanine and histidine when absorbed from the digestive system into the bloodstream, and only trace amounts of beta-alanine and carnosine are delivered to the cells. Research has shown that enough histidine is naturally present in the body to meet the demands for synthesis of carnosine, and that the limiting factor is beta-alanine. Beta-alanine supplementation augments the small amounts available from (1) synthesis in the liver, and (2) from the ingestion of meat and fish. Supplemental beta-alanine combines with the naturally occurring histidine to increase the levels of carnosine.
As muscle mass and systemic functions decrease with age, so do carnosine levels. Perfect Synergy® beta-alanine supports increased carnosine, which can help maintain higher levels of brain, bone, heart, muscle, and systemic function in aging populations.
Perfect Synergy® combines with the amino acid histidine to form the dipeptide carnosine. Supplementation with Perfect Synergy® has been proven to boost carnosine levels by peer reviewed scientific research. Carnosine, shown by thousands of independent scientific studies, has been proven to support brain, heart, muscle, bone, and systemic health.
Perfect Synergy® is powered by SR CarnoSyn®, a sustained release formulation of beta-alanine which is essential to the body’s production of carnosine. This uniquely formulated sustained release formula enables larger servings of beta-alanine to be taken without reaching the paresthesia-sensation threshold typically associated with beta-alanine supplementation.
Perfect Synergy® features a sustained release profile designed to buffer paresthesia associated with instant release beta-alanine. Sensitivity may vary depending upon the individual, the dosage amount, and the variety of food intake prior to supplementing with Perfect Synergy®.
Perfect Synergy® beta-alanine is suitable for both vegans and vegetarians. Since beta-alanine is most often found in meat sources, it is critical for vegans and vegetarians to supplement beta-alanine to ensure healthy levels of carnosine. For vegans specifically, the only other source of beta-alanine is synthesis in the liver, however the level of beta-alanine synthesized in the liver is very low in humans and can only maintain low levels of carnosine production.

Complete Vision Support Questions
FloraGLO® Lutein is naturally sourced, lutein backed by 25 years of research with an established reputation for quality, safety, and efficacy, and the first lutein brand introduced into the global marketplace.
Everyone can benefit from increased levels of carnosine and macular pigment in their bodies. Both carnosine and macular pigment levels decrease as we age resulting in lesser health.
Macular pigment levels decrease with age resulting in decreased visual acuity, poorer vision perception and slower glare recovery. It is difficult to obtain an efficacious dosage of lutein and beta-alanine from diet alone. SR CarnoSyn® and FloraGLO® are clinically proven to increase carnosine in the body and macular pigment in the eye, helping to support total eye health by reducing oxidative stress and cellular and tissue damage.
Macular pigment is your eye’s natural protection against dangerous violet-blue light and oxidative damage, which contribute to advanced aging of the retina.
