Popular questions
Alanin aminotransferaz nedir?
Alanin aminotransferaz (ALT), alanin ile α‑ketoglutarat arasında amin grubu aktarımı yapan ve karaciğerde yoğun bulunan bir enzimdir; gıda katkısı E369 (alanin) ile aynı şey değildir.
Beta alanin nedir?
Beta‑alanin, egzersizde kas karnozinini artırmak için kullanılan bir beta‑amino asittir; E369’daki L‑alaninden farklıdır.
What does beta alanin do?
Beta‑alanine raises muscle carnosine, helping buffer acid during high‑intensity exercise and potentially reducing fatigue; a common benign side effect is tingling (paresthesia). It is different from the food additive E369 (L‑alanine).
What is beta alanin?
Beta‑alanine is a non‑essential beta‑amino acid used mainly in sports supplements to boost muscle carnosine; it is not the same as E369 (L‑alanine) used as a food ingredient.
For what is good alanin in liver?
In the liver, alanine supports the glucose–alanine cycle: ALT converts it to pyruvate for gluconeogenesis and it carries nitrogen for urea formation. This metabolic role is distinct from its use as the food additive E369.
Is erythritol bad for you?
No—regulators (e.g., FDA, EFSA) consider erythritol safe at typical food-use levels, and it doesn’t raise blood sugar or cause tooth decay. Large amounts can cause digestive upset, and a recent observational study linked high blood erythritol levels with cardiovascular risk, but causation hasn’t been shown.
What are the dangers of erythritol?
The main concern is gastrointestinal discomfort (bloating, diarrhea) when large amounts are consumed; in the EU, polyol-containing foods may carry a laxative-effect warning. An observational study has linked high circulating erythritol with cardiovascular events, but evidence is not conclusive and guidance has not changed.
Is erythritol safe?
Yes—it's authorized in the EU (E968) and considered GRAS in the U.S., with no safety concern at reported uses. Some people may experience digestive upset if they consume a lot at once.
What is erythritol made from?
It’s typically produced by fermenting glucose (often from corn or wheat starch) with yeast-like microorganisms (e.g., Moniliella), then purified and crystallized.
Does erythritol raise blood sugar?
No—erythritol has little to no effect on blood glucose or insulin and is largely excreted unchanged.
