Another common side effect of beta-alanine supplementation is itchiness. In fact, one study showed that nearly half of all participants who took beta-alanine supplements experienced itchiness. The cause of this itchiness isn’t entirely clear, but it’s thought to be related to the way beta-alanine affects pH levels in the skin. When beta-alanine is absorbed into the bloodstream, it can cause a temporary drop in pH levels. This acidic environment can irritate the skin, leading to that familiar itching sensation.
