Used in research and development for its potential neuroprotective and anti-fatigue properties. Commonly studied in sports nutrition for its role in buffering muscle pH during high-intensity exercise, helping delay the onset of fatigue. Also investigated for its antioxidant effects, particularly in aging and cognitive function. Applied in cell culture and biochemical assays to support cellular health and energy metabolism. Shows promise in formulations targeting muscle performance and recovery due to its ability to enhance endurance and reduce oxidative stress.
