DL-Alanine is a non-essential amino acid that exists in both the L- and D- forms. It plays a key role in protein synthesis and is involved in various metabolic processes, including glucose metabolism. Alanine is important for energy production, particularly during exercise, as it can be converted into glucose through gluconeogenesis.
