What is BCAA powder from MYPROTEIN?

BCAA (branched-chain amino acid) is a combination of branched-chain amino acids – Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine . They are considered essential amino acids because the human body cannot survive without them in the diet.

The BCAA powder product from MYPROTEIN at a top price is a suitable nutritional supplement for systematic physical exertion, for athletes in strength and speed-strength sports, for faster recovery and building of muscles and energy levels, for faster burning of calories and body fat.

BCAAs are an indispensable building block of muscles, as they make up one third of all muscle proteins. BCAAs are successfully used to increase muscle mass , reduce body fat, and create better muscle relief during aerobic and strength training.

BCAAs have a pronounced anti-catabolic effect, protecting muscle proteins from breakdown.

Why is it necessary to take BCAAs during training?

BCAAs have a very strong evidence base. They are one of the few sports nutrition supplements whose effectiveness has been confirmed by real scientific, not commercial, studies.

Unlike other amino acids, BCAAs are not metabolized in the stomach, but directly in the muscles. As such, they help burn fat on high-calorie diets, protect muscles, and maintain blood sugar on low-carb diets .

Exercise increases the oxidation of BCAAs to maintain energy homeostasis by converting them into a readily available source of energy – glucose. Studies have shown that during and after training in athletes, the concentration of BCAAs , especially leucine , is reduced, which triggers metabolic processes with the destruction of muscle proteins aimed at normalizing the levels of these amino acids . Thus, additional intake of BCAAs in the form of a supplement restores their concentration and stops muscle breakdown.

In addition, scientists pay special attention to the role of leucine as a source of ATP – the body's main energy substrate.

The oxidation of leucine in the muscles yields more ATP molecules than glucose, therefore the athlete receives ATP from 2 sources at once, i.e. restores his strength much faster.

BCAAs are precursors of glutamine , which is important for muscle growth. Glutamine regulates the synthesis of all types of proteins in the body, shifts nitrogen levels to the anabolic side, increases the size of muscle cells and stimulates the production of growth hormone . The increased consumption of glutamine during training can be restored by taking BCAAs , which are transformed into it directly in the muscles.

Consuming carbohydrates and BCAAs after training leads to a synergistic increase in insulin levels, activating nutrient uptake by cells, which leads to accelerated muscle growth .

BCAAs help reduce appetite, increase calorie expenditure by burning fat, boost metabolism, and most importantly, protect muscles from breakdown.
