Leucine, isoleucine, and valine belong to the family of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) that build proteins. They are among the 9 essential amino acids for humans, since our body cannot manufacture them, so their only source is our daily diet or food supplementation. BCAAs represent 35% of the essential amino acids in muscle proteins. On the other hand, glutamine is a very popular ingredient among athletes, which is why we have included it to increase glutamine intake levels. The 1: 1 combination of high doses of BCAAs and Glutamine in this scientifically formulated powder promotes muscle recovery during and after high intensity workouts by preventing undesirable muscle breakdown and decreased performance.
