Bcaa 8:1:1 - Food supplement of branched chain amino acids with vitamins B1 and B6.

Yamamoto Nutrition BCAA 8:1:1 is a food supplement based on branched chain amino acids (BCAA - Branched Chain Amino Acid) with vitamins B1 and B6. The product was made in the innovative 8:1:1 ratio (8 parts of L-Leucine, 1 of L-Valine and 1 of L-Isoleucine). Branched chain amino acids are a group of 3 essential amino acids, Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine, united by a specific chemical property: the presence of a branched side chain. BCAAs are precisely among the nine amino acids defined as essential for humans, because our body is unable to produce them. The only possible supply route is therefore through daily nutrition or dietary supplementation. BCAAs have conquered the world of sports supplementation in recent years, thanks to the high presence in muscle proteins, the absence of noteworthy side effects and the potential ergogenic and myoprotective role. They are, in fact, indicated to integrate the diet of athletes of different disciplines, both strength and endurance, who train daily. They are used as: Energy substrate before performance; Anti-catabolic remedy before, after and during performance; Support to reduce muscle damage from intense exercise; Support to reduce the feeling of fatigue and muscle tiredness, especially during and after the performance; To optimize muscle growth.

The formula is also enriched with vitamin B1 (or thiamin), which supports normal energy metabolism by helping the conversion of glucose into energy, and vitamin B6, which contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, the maintenance of normal protein metabolism and of glycogen, the stimulation of brain functions and the prevention of aging. Branched chain amino acids represent 35% of the essential amino acids in muscle proteins. Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine are indispensable amino acids, supplied through different dietary protein intakes or supplementation. BCAAs can in fact be consumed as supplements, and their supplementation is particularly recommended after intense workouts or after demanding physical work. In BCAA 8:1:1, the BCAAs are contained in an 8:1:1 ratio between Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine: in this Formulation, more enriched in Leucine, according to various studies, they allow for better results in terms of support for muscle mass and recovery.
