Branched-Chain Amino Acids – 240 capsules – Now

Branched-Chain Amino Acids – 240 capsules – Now is a food supplement with branched-chain amino acids (BCAA): L-leucine, L-isoleucine and L-valine. These amino acids are essential and, therefore, the body does not produce them. Thus, they are obtained through diet and, additionally, can be complemented with supplementation when indicated. The capsule format makes it easier to take as part of training routines and during periods of greater nutritional demand.

What it is used for

Branched-Chain Amino Acids – 240 capsules – Now is used as nutritional support for adults with an active lifestyle. In particular, it can help with the intake of essential amino acids around exercise. In addition, BCAA participate in protein metabolism and may contribute to protein synthesis in the context of an adequate diet. However, protein synthesis depends on the full range of essential amino acids, so overall protein intake remains relevant.

In general, it may be considered by adults who train regularly or, on the other hand, by people with lower protein intake looking for a practical option. However, this product does not replace a balanced diet.

Composition or Main Characteristics

Each serving of 4 capsules provides a total of 2.6 g of BCAA, including:

• L-Leucine: 1.170–1.400 mg per serving
• L-Isoleucine: 570–700 mg per serving
• L-Valine: 570–700 mg per serving

Additionally, the product is indicated as vegan and compatible with Kosher and Halal. In addition, it is not made with ingredients containing wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, crustaceans or tree nuts. However, it is manufactured in a facility that also processes these allergens, so sensitive individuals should consider this information.

Directions for use

Take 4 capsules, twice daily, before meals or exercise, as directed on the label. Thus, many people choose to take it close to training or with a meal containing protein. Therefore, taking it with water may help tolerance, especially when taken on an empty stomach. However, adjust use to your routine and individual tolerance.
