Branch-chained amino acids, in the new formulation 8:1:1 (L-leucine, L-isoleucine, L-valine), promote protein synthesis and sustain muscle mass and growth.

Branch-chained amino acids are three essential amino acids: L-leucine, L-valine and L-isoleucine. During metabolic stress – during physical exercise – branched amino acids promote protein synthesis, reduce protein catabolism and can serve as substrates for energy production (through gluconeogenesis). According to various studies, Branch-chained Amino Acids (BCAA) in the new formulation with added leucine help you achieve better results in terms of muscle mass sustainment and recovery. One study, in particular, has highlighted how a combination of branched amino acids (with 76% of Leucine) has stimulated the reduction of adipose tissue and improves levels of performance. Other studies point to how taking supplements based on Leucine after physical activity can help mitigate the damage to muscle tissue and promote protein synthesis, speeding up muscle recovery.
