Why am I tingling after taking pre-workout?

Beta-alanine can cause a tingling sensation, known as paresthesia, in some individuals. This tingling sensation typically occurs shortly after consuming beta-alanine and is more common with higher doses. It's a harmless and temporary side effect that usually subsides within 30 to 60 minutes. Some people may find the tingling uncomfortable, while others may not notice it at all. If you experience paresthesia and find it bothersome, you can try splitting your beta-alanine dosage into smaller amounts throughout the day or consider taking a sustained-release formulation to minimize the tingling sensation.
