Product description:

BCAA from Optimum Nutrition consists of a potent combination of branched chain amino acids, which are known to be the building blocks of muscle mass and size. BCAAs are metabolized directly in the muscles and improve nitrogen retention by relieving the load from other amino acid groups to focus on muscle repair and rebuilding. Recovery efforts are optimized with the use of Optimum Nutrition’s BCAA.

The Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs), so named because of their unique branched chemical structure, are essential in that the body cannot make them from other compounds. With 1000 mg of BCAAs per serving in an easy to swallow capsule, BCAA is a major supporter for muscle building and post workout recuperation.

As a dietary supplement Optimum Nutrition recommends the consumption of two capsules 1-3 times daily with water or favorite beverage. Supplement may also be used as directed by a physician or licensed nutritionist. BCAA contains 250 mg of L-Valine, 250 mg of L-Isoleucine, and 500 mg of L-Leucine. This 2:1:1 ratio is optimally formulated to provide maximum health and fitness benefits. L-form amino acids are great in promoting muscle strength, protein assimilation, and post-workout muscle recovery. Other ingredients include gelatin and magnesium stearate.
