Branched-chain Amino Acid

What Is Bcaa?

Branched-chain amino acids are three common amino acids in proteins, namely leucine, valine and isoleucine, collectively referred to as branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), so they can also be called compound branched-chain amino acids. The packaging of branched-chain amino acids on the market is commonly seen as follows: 2:1:1 or 4:1:1 refers to the ratio of these three amino acids.

Why BCAAs Can Help Muscle Gain?

When we take BCAA, it can indeed increase the speed of protein synthesis and reduce the speed of protein decomposition in a short period of time, especially the leucine in it. Insufficient leucine will affect the start of muscle protein synthesis and can directly stimulate protein synthesis. rate, and leucine can also synthesize glutamine.

But even if the level of leucine in the blood remains elevated, our body's protein synthesis rate will eventually decrease. If you want to stimulate the protein synthesis rate again, you have to wait for the synthesis rate to drop back to the bottom line before it can increase again. This is called the "muscle full effect".

Therefore, although branched-chain amino acids can directly increase the speed of protein synthesis and reduce protein breakdown, it does not mean that it can help us build muscle. Increased synthesis and reduced breakdown in a short period of time cannot help us effectively increase muscle.

It seems that there is no need to supplement branched-chain amino acids in order to maximize muscle gain when we have sufficient protein intake. What's more, many protein powders now have extra BCAA added, but if your protein intake Not enough, then supplementing BCAA can help to make up for the lack of protein to a certain extent, so as to achieve muscle gain.

The Function of BCAA

According to the "Suggested Guidelines for the Use of Sports Supplements" issued by the ISSN International Sports Nutrition Society, branched-chain amino acids is a type II supplement with at least the following effects:

1.Promotes post-exercise muscle protein synthesis

2.Anti-muscle breakdown

3.Enhance sports performance and inhibit central fatigue in a short time

4.Relieves muscle damage and inflammation

In short, for fitness enthusiasts, whether during or after training, when the muscles are stimulated to start anabolism, supplementing with BCAA will have additional benefits.

For fat-reducing people, supplementing some BCAA between each meal can also help slow down muscle loss.
