NOW Branched Chain Amino Acids (VCaps)

SKU: NOW80053

Essential amino acids your muscles actually use for repair and growth

What It Does

NOW BCAAs help maintain muscle tissue and support recovery after exercise. These three essential amino acids — leucine, isoleucine, and valine — are the building blocks your muscles use most during repair and growth processes.

Why It Works

LEUCINE (1,600mg): The primary trigger for muscle protein synthesis, shown in research to activate mTOR pathways that signal muscle building.
ISOLEUCINE (800mg): Supports muscle glucose uptake and helps maintain nitrogen balance during training stress.
VALINE (800mg): Works with the other BCAAs to prevent muscle breakdown and support energy production in muscle tissue.

What's Inside

Pure free-form amino acids in vegetarian capsules. No salt, starch, yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, egg, shellfish or preservatives. Each 4-capsule serving delivers 3.2g of BCAAs in the researched 2:1:1 ratio.

Why we carry it: NOW's pharmaceutical manufacturing standards ensure consistent potency and purity at a price that makes daily BCAA supplementation accessible to serious athletes.
