What are BCAAs and how’s it useful?
BCAA - Branched Chain Amino Acids are referred to as three major amino acids - Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine. BCAA are essential amino acids that are not synthesized in the body but have to be consumed from outside sources.
BCAA plays an important role in any sports nutritional program. BCAA are stored and metabolized directly in the skeletal muscle and not in the liver. It has both anabolic (Muscle building) and catabolic (Prevent damage to muscle) properties.

Why 2:1:1 ratio of BCAA?
Although Leucine is the key amino acid that helps in muscle protein synthesis. But studies suggest that only Leucine supplementation does not cater to all the needs.2:1:1 ratio of BCAA helps improve muscle protein synthesis better than just Leucine. Additionally, 2:1:1 ratio helps to increase energy production and lessens fatigue.
How does Leucine help?
Leucine helps to activate the process of muscle protein synthesis, which adds to muscle protein that ultimately leads to muscle growth.
What is the role of Isoleucine?
Isoleucine helps to promote faster muscle recovery, increases oxygen carrying capacity and ultimately helps enhance athletic performance.
What is the role of Valine?
When one performs any intense activity there is onset of fatigue and loss of energy. Valine is the amino acid that helps to delay the onset of fatigue. Additionally, Valine competes with Serotonin. Higher levels of Serotonin during activity indicates to the brain that the body is fatigued which results in lower muscle strength and endurance. Valine competes and helps to keep the body stay more alert and energetic to perform activity at top level.
