Branched Chain Amino Acids
3.5 Grams/Dose -Stimulate Protein Synthesis*
Branched-chain Amino Acids (BCAA) are 3 essential amino acids which are abundant in muscles. The branched chain amino acids (BCAA's) leucine, isoleucine and valine are three of the eight essential amino acids the human body must receive in food.
Branched chain amino acids are proven to reduce muscle breakdown during training by stimulating an anabolic state throughout the workout. BCAA's can raise insulin and can act in cooperation with glutamine as an efficient muscular fuel source.
Generally speaking, BCAA supplementation is used most frequently by body builders and athletes undergoing intense exercise.
However, some research suggests that BCAAs may play a supportive role in treating some conditions.
For athletes, BCAA supplementation prior to exercise may boost muscle performance and improve recovery after periods of intense workouts.
BCAAs taken 1-2 hours before intense training spare testosterone and muscle BCAA during training, and increase testosterone levels after training.
Glutamine has been added as a preferred source of fuel for the intestinal cells and is in high demand by skeletal muscles following physical exertion. Vitamin B6 enhances amino acid metabolism.
Recommended Use:
Drink 1-2 glasses of fruit juice immediately after training to spike insulin
Non workout days: Take 4-8 capsules with 8oz. of water with breakfast or lunch. Wait 4-6 hours and take another 4-8
capsules with a meal.
