Right now T-Nation has a deal, you order two bottles of it, you get 1 free plus you get 1000g of micronized creatine monohydrate. So I went that route. Almost got some from tp until I saw this little deal hidden on the front page over there.

EDIT: BTW, I fired up a post about BA a while back, with some interesting reading:

Creatine + Beta-Alanine Study

Damn, I never thought about legality issues.

Let me know.

Will do; really, it's only a non-essential amino acid, so I don't see the issue. Then again, the fact that ALCAR and DMAE are not able to be sold is ridiculous, so who knows why the gov't restricts what it does. I may just try an order of BA and leave the ALCAR, since I know for sure that can't be brought into Canada.

EDIT: Well lo and behold, look what I found whilst surfing:

I can't vouch for the site, but it looks like Canuckleheads are in luck with BA.

I got my order of bulk powder today. I promptly ripped it open and measured out about 2g and sucked it down with a bit of my PWO shake. This overall tingling feeling is rather unnerving.

Wasn't Vitamin K illegal in Canada for awhile?

Thanks for the heads up, I'm gonna get some of that shit.

Why only 2g? Didn't you read the dosing that had the most clinical viability?

One thing on the Biotest deal, the maths off the top of my head are 3 time released BA's plus $20 worth of creatine. The BA was 180g worth per bottle, so 540g BA and 1000g creatine for $100.

Bulknutrition sells 500g for around $30, and recently, DPS has beaten them with the price of Primaforce BA, as seen in an earlier post. FWIW, DPS also has some solid promotions going currently on Xtend.

The literature I've read on BA is promising, but I've been wary of newly popular supps for a while (especially when I believe BA is in its second run as a hyped supplement).

From hype and reviews, it does look like BA and Cissus are worthwhile, with Epistane being the shady success story.

I ordered my 2 bottles, plus a free one and two free bottles of creatine, and some ZMA.

$47 shipping though...

I still think Cissus is just hype when it comes to healing injuries faster…

I've been wondering about BA for awhile. It's cool that so many regulars on this board are trying it out. I'll wait for the feedback before diving in…
