BCAA - Leucine:Isoleucine:Valine

Picture of BCAA

Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) are Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine. They are considered to be essential amino acids because humans could not survive unless they were present in their diet.

BCAAs are required to maintain muscle tissue and studies have shown that they help to preserve the muscle stores of glycogen. BCAAs also prevent muscle tissue breakdown during training.

What are the key benefits?

Unlike other amino acids BCAAs are not metabolised in the stomach and are instead metabolised directly in the muscle. This unique quality means that they are very anabolic (they build muscle) and very anti-catabolic (they stop muscle breakdown). These unique amino acids (Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine) cannot be synthesised by your body so they are essential to your growth.

Don't like the taste of BCAA powder? Why not try our BCAA+ Tablets.

Additional information

You can increase the effectiveness of BCAAs by consuming 10mg of Vitamin B6 with every 10g of BCAA.

What are the ingredients?

The ratio of our BCAA is 2:1:1 (Leucine:Isoleucine:Valine).
