Branched-chain amino acids with added L-glutamine
MN BCAA combines the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) — leucine, isoleucine, and valine — along with the amino acid, L-glutamine for a synergistic effect in building muscle tissue and supporting the immune system. BCAAs are unique in that they are a direct source of energy for skeletal muscles while also serving as intermediates in the ATP-producing citric acid cycle. They stimulate the building of protein in muscle, help reduce muscle breakdown during exercise, and regulate protein metabolism throughout the body.
Lana's note:
"For everyone doing aggressive workouts (notably improves endurance), teenage athletes, support for children on the autism spectrum (adjunct 'therapy', according to a 2023 study), muscle tissue loss in post-COVID, the elderly, during menopause/andropause.
*It pairs well with MorNatural whey protein.
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition - 2013: 'Adding 5g of BCAAs to a drink containing 6.25g of whey protein increases muscle protein synthesis to a level comparable to that induced by 25g of whey protein."
