Wellness Nutrition Performance BCCAs by Champion Nutrition - 200 Capsules
When you're training to develop a stronger, more powerful body, it is essential to fuel your muscles at the cellular level. Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs), Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine make up approximately 1/3 of muscle protein. Wellness Nutrition BCAAs delivers a 2:1:1 ratio reduction in muscle fatigue, speeds recovery, decreases the loss of other amino acids, and helps the body absorb protein. BCAA's are rapidly depleted from the muscle when training and a deficiency in any one of them will cause muscle loss and catabolism. Taking BCAAs before and/or during a workout provides the optimal muscle fuel to increase performance and reduce fatigue.
Branched Chain Amino Acids (Free Form) The branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) L-valine, L-leucine, and L-isoleucine enhance protein synthesis in liver cells and muscle cells. Because they can be oxidized in the cell's mitochondria, the branched chain amino acids may also provide energy and may serve as fuel sources for skeletal muscles during periods of metabolic stress. As a result, BCAAs have been used with success to support liver function. A study in 2008 also showed BCAAs supplementation improved insulin resistance and beta cell function as well as energy metabolism and glucose tolerance in certain people. They are also used by athletes. A current mouse study showed how restoring hippocampal BCAA concentrations to normal had the effect of reinstating normal brain function, by helping the synapses to function efficiently. Price: $19.50
