Tablets Infisport BCAA Leucine+8:1:1 100 Units

BCAA 8: 1: 1 Leucine + contains the three branched chain amino acids L-leucine (Ajinomoto Co.), L-isoleucine (Ajinomoto Co.) and L-valine (Ajinomoto Co.) in 8: 1: 1 ratio respectively. They form about a third of the muscle mass and are classified as essential amino acids, not synthesized by the body, their intake being necessary through food.

During long-term sports, there is an increase in the use of branched-chain amino acids by the muscle for energy, reducing their concentration in the blood during exercise. Consequently, there will be less glucose formation through branched amino acids.

Branched amino acid supplementation could reduce muscle damage associated with endurance exercise by increasing glucose availability through branched amino acids and reducing fatigue due to lack of substrates, which in turn leads to increased muscle damage marker enzymes.

In strength sports, BCAAs are used to optimize the muscle recovery process after high intensity efforts with a high energy component and structural damage.

BCAA 8: 1: 1 Leucine + provides vitamin B6 contributing to the normal metabolism of proteins and glycogen.
