BCAAs are Branched Chain Amino Acids consisting of 3 essential amino acids leucine iso-leucine and valine.

They are considered essential amino acids because human beings cannot survive unless these amino acids are present in the diet. Together they comprise approximately 1/3 of human muscle tissue. Studies have shown that BCAAs help to stimulate protein synthesis and inhibit its breakdown so BCAAs have powerful anabolic and anti-catabolic effects on the body.

PhD Nutrition BCAAs the exciting first product in the brand new Recovery range have been designed to the specific 2:1:1 ratio required to optimise the effects of Leucine the most important of the three BCAAs.Muscle protein synthesis (muscle growth and production), PhD BCAAs are vital to protein synthesis (the ability to build muscle) and also vital in reducing muscle damage.

Vitally when we workout strenuously with weights we oxidise amino acids (use them to fuel our training). BCAA oxidisation is rapidly promoted by exercise so when we train hard we use BCAAs. If we do not replace or keep topping these BCAAs up before during and after exercise we run the risk of increasing muscle damage indicators Creatine Kinease (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and missin Continued on Amazon…
