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
