After fitness workouts, metabolism remains elevated and the build-up of muscle protein is stimulated. Amino acids are the building blocks of these proteins.
Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) belong to the 9 essential amino acids, which cannot be synthesized by the human body itself – thus the intake needs to be covered through nutrition.
The BCAAs L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine and L-Valine make up approximately 20-35% of human muscle protein!
