NOW Foods BCAA Powder with Leucine, Isoleucine & Valine – 12 oz
The Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) leucine, isoleucine and valine are essential amino acids and thus cannot be made in the body.* BCAAs are critical for muscle protein synthesis, and because BCAAs can be used as fuel during exercise, BCAA supplementation can help to preserve existing muscle tissue.* In addition, BCAAs can support the recovery process by promoting the normal repair processes that take place after exertion.* BCAAs also play an important role in the maintenance of proper immune system function and the support of healthy aging.* Natural color variation may occur in this product.
