BCCA

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein, the body breaks consumed protein into amino acids in the stomach and intestines.

Amino Acids are classified as
√ Essential, conditionally essential
√ Non-essential.

There are three branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs): leucine, isoleucine, and valine. All three branched-chain amino acids are essential amino acids. Each has numerous benefits on various biological processes in the body. Unlike other amino acids, BCAAs are metabolised in the muscle and have an anabolic/anti-catabolic effect on it. BCAAs account for 33% of muscle protein.
