• Branched Chain Amino Acids(Branched Chain Amino Acids Note: (free-form) (providing))

  1200 mg

  • L-Leucine

    600 mg

    Ingredient research · Leucine

    Leucine is an essential branched-chain amino acid that serves as a key signal for muscle protein synthesis, helping explain its use around resistance training and in older adults. Supplementation may support muscle maintenance or growth when dietary protein is insufficient, but it cannot replace the full range of amino acids supplied by complete protein.

    • Supports muscle protein synthesis in older adults at rest and around resistance exercise.
    • Supports strength gains in initially untrained men during supervised resistance training.

  • L-Isoleucine

    300 mg

    Ingredient research · L-Isoleucine

    L-Isoleucine is an essential branched-chain amino acid used to build proteins and as fuel by muscle and other tissues. Supplements are mainly intended to bolster amino acid availability around exercise or when protein intake is limited, but isolated isoleucine has no clear advantage over adequate complete protein or balanced essential amino acids.

  • L-Valine

    300 mg

    Ingredient research · Valine

    Valine is an essential branched-chain amino acid needed for protein synthesis and also used by muscles as fuel during exercise. Supplements are usually intended to support muscle maintenance or recovery, but isolated valine has little established advantage when overall protein and essential amino acid intake is already adequate.
