BCAAs stands for “Branched Chain Amino Acids” and consists of a key trio of essential amino acids that helps you maintain muscle: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. Our BCAA 8:1:1 is a rare supplement because of the quality of the product and the unique ratio of 8(Leucine):1(Isoleucine):1(Valine).
BCAAs are amino acids are well known for their anticatabolic (preventing muscle breakdown) and anabolic (muscle building) effects. It's a well-established fact that BCAAs (particularly leucine) increase the rate of protein synthesis, to make sure muscle gains are made from your workouts. So consuming 8 grams of L-Leucine (the strongest of the three Branched-chain amino acids) every day, will work in your favor. BCAA 8:1:1 not only induces muscle protein synthesis but can also help in decreasing protein catabolism and could enhance muscle recovery as well.
