BCAA 2:1:1 & 4:1:1

Description: These branched chain essential amino acids (BCAA) are known as the stress amino acids. Thirty percent of the diet should be proteins when the body is under severe stress, because stress causes protein to break down faster. BCAAs have regulatory effects on overall protein metabolism and are required in larger amounts during stress than are other amino acids (and probably proportionately more leucine than either valine or isoleucine). Furthermore, when given as supplements, BCAAs decrease the rate of breakdown and utilisation of other amino acids and stimulate protein synthesis. Therefore these BCAAs are useful in conditions of stress caused by trauma, surgery, liver failure, infection, fever, starvation, muscle training and weight lifting. BCAAs are unique in that skeletal muscles can use them directly as an energy source.

Functions and usage:

BCAA can promote protein synthesis after exercise metabolism, speed up muscle synthesis and reduce muscle tissue decomposition, contribute to the increase of muscle mass. The functions as follows:

1.  oxidative: Muscle oxidation is BCAA’s main organizations. BCAA oxidation efficiency of ATP was significantly higher than other amino acids, especially in the high-intensity exercise muscle oxidation ability to increase 3 to 5 times, BCAA can be enhanced significantly, so it is important for muscle tissue to amino acids. Prolonged exercise is involved in energy supply is an important material;

2.  promoting protein synthesis and protein degradation;BCAA can promote the synthesis of muscle protein polypeptide chain and promote protein synthesis, and this effect is limited to muscle tissue, its role in regulating protein similar to insulin updated. Insulin's main role is to allow blood sugar to be absorbed and as a source of energy for muscles, so you can ensure that the inhibition of protein synthesis and degradation.

3 . immune enhancement;BCAA is closely related with the human immunodeficiency. Lack of BCAA can cause atrophy of thymus and spleen, lymphoid tissue damage, and immunoglobulin levels, C3 and transferrin protein levels, will lead to decreased synthetic capacity of specific antibody. valine can promote bone T cells into the role of mature T cells.
