Our body can produce some of them, but the rest (essential amino acids) must be obtained from food. BCAAs, or branched-chain amino acids, are a special category of essential amino acids. In total, three amino acids are assigned to this category: L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBiotechUSA BCAA Zero drink powder is not only a combination of L-leucine, L-valine, and L-isoleucine, it also contains Glutamine. It also contains vitamin B6, which not only contributes to normal energy metabolism but also helps reduce feelings of tiredness and fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBCAAs (Branched-chain amino acids):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration-line: underline;\"\u003ePromote muscle growth.\u003c\/span\u003e One of the main goals of BCAA consumption is to promote muscle growth. Leucine activates muscle protein synthesis, i.e., the process of muscle protein production. In one study, protein synthesis increased by 22% in people who consumed a BCAA drink after resistance training, compared to those who did not.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eHelps reduce muscle soreness.\u003c\/span\u003e Often, after starting to exercise, a day or two after the first workout, significant pain is felt. This pain is called delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), which appears approximately 21-24 hours after training and can last up to 72 hours. BCAAs have been shown to reduce muscle damage, which can help reduce the duration and intensity of DOMS. Several studies also show that BCAAs reduce protein breakdown during exercise and reduce creatine kinase levels (Creatine kinase is an indicator of damaged muscle tissue).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration-line: underline;\"\u003eHelps reduce fatigue.\u003c\/span\u003e BCAAs can help reduce not only muscle soreness but also post-workout fatigue. During training, your muscles use BCAAs, so their level in the blood periodically decreases. When the level of BCAAs in the blood decreases, the amount of the essential amino acid tryptophan in the brain increases. In the brain, tryptophan is converted into serotonin—a chemical substance in the brain that is thought to contribute to the onset of fatigue during physical exertion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration-line: underline;\"\u003ePrevents muscle breakdown.\u003c\/span\u003e BCAAs can help prevent muscle wasting or breakdown. Muscle proteins are constantly broken down and rebuilt (synthesized). The balance between muscle protein breakdown and synthesis determines the amount of protein in the muscles. Muscle breakdown or wasting occurs when protein breakdown exceeds muscle protein synthesis (broken down faster than produced). Muscle wasting can be a sign of malnutrition and occurs in chronic infections, cancer, starvation, and is also a natural part of the aging process. In the human body, BCAAs make up 35% of the essential amino acids in muscle proteins. They make up 40-45% of all amino acids needed by the body, so it is important that BCAAs and other essential amino acids are replaced during muscle wasting to stop it or slow its progression.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Biotech USA","offers":[{"title":"Cold lemon tea","offer_id":57205170504029,"sku":"5999076225507","price":22.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tropical fruits","offer_id":57205170569565,"sku":"5999076225477","price":22.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Watermelons","offer_id":57205170602333,"sku":"5999076225484","price":22.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Peach iced tea","offer_id":65784940855645,"sku":"5999076223404","price":22.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/4489\/9165\/files\/015Z5NIPQXHWJ5UHWU6RBJ6ADADRR5JOAH.webp?v=1756132480","url":"https:\/\/apolonopapildai.lt\/en\/products\/biotechusa-bcaa-zero-360g","provider":"Apolono papildai","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
