Now Foods Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) 120 Capsules

Branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), leucine, isoleucine and valine, are essential amino acids that are not produced in the human body. BCAAs are critical for muscle protein synthesis and supplementation can help maintain existing muscle tissue effectively, as they can be well used as "fuel" during strenuous exercise.

BCAAs can make a decisive contribution to the muscle recovery process by promoting the normal post-exercise recovery process. They are necessary for the maintenance of lean tissue and according to scientific studies, they help significantly in the maintenance of glycogen stores. They are the only amino acids that can be converted to glucose when glycogen stores are depleted during exercise, thus preventing muscle breakdown. Unlike other amino acids, BCAA's are not metabolized in the stomach but are aimed directly at muscle. This unique feature makes them essential as they help build lean tissue while helping to reduce catabolism.

BCAAs also play an important role in maintaining the proper functioning of the immune system while supporting the natural aging process.
