Optimum Nutrition BCAA 1000
BCAA 1000 contains a potent balance of Branched Chain Amino Acids, which are building blocks of muscle mass and size. Metabolized directly in the muscle, BCAAs, may improve nitrogen retention by sparing other amino acid groups for repair and rebuilding. BCAAs are needed for the maintenance of muscle tissue and appear to preserve muscle stores of glycogen (a storage form of carbohydrate that can be converted into energy). BCAAs also help prevent muscle protein breakdown during exercise.
BCAA are L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine and L-Valine.
L-Leucine helps preserve lean muscle tissue, supplies the body with energy when under stress (i.e. when engaging in athletic activity). L-Leucine protects muscle glycogen, maintains nitrogen balance, and enhances thinking abilities that can decline as physical activity becomes more intense.
L-Isoleucine help in proper hemoglobin formation, stabilizes blood sugar and energy levels.
L-Valine is needed for muscle metabolism, tissue repair, and for the maintenance of proper nitrogen balance in the body. There is also evidence that L-Valine may benefit exercise endurance, muscular strength, and recovery time after physical activity.
Hence BCAA 1000 may help you in:
- Muscle tissue maintenance
- Proper nitrogen balance
- Muscle glycogen maintenance
- Recovery from exercise.

L-Leucine is a very important BCAA. If you body does not have enough L-Leucine, it may not use the protein intake. BCAAs are not made the body so consumption is necessary.

How amino acids are helpful for me?
|
|
|
Amino acids are building blocks of protein and the construction material of virtually all your body's lean mass. Amino acids are critical to our body's proper functioning. Their role includes repairing muscles, organs, nails, hair, skin, ligaments and glands.

What Is The Difference Between Essential and Non-Essential Amino Acids?
|
|
|
Essential amino acids cannot be made by the body. You must get them from complete protein foods or combinations of incomplete vegetable foods. There are 9 essential amino acids: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, and valine. Your body can make non-essential amino acids by itself from vitamins and other amino acids.
The term "non-essential" can be misleading since all amino acids are essential for proper metabolism and certain non-essential amino acids, such as glutamine, become very essential. The 13 non-essential amino acids are alanine, arginine, aspartic acid, cysteine, cystine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, hydroxyproline, proline, serine, & tyrosine.

Why do I need branched chain amino acids?
|
|
|
Branched chain amino acids are essential for bodybuilders. Bodybuilders are required to workout on daily basis. The essential branched chain amino acids (BCAA's) are of special importance for athletes because they are metabolized in the muscle, rather than in the liver. After digestion once protein is broken down into individual amino acids these aminos can either be used to build new proteins or be burned as fuel to produce energy.
Glutamine, an amino acid, provides energy for workouts. Branched chain amino acids help you recover after exercise. They can reduce workout related injuries and provide you more energy for workout and all daylong.

What is N.A.G?
|
|
|
N.A.G (N-Acetyl-L-Glutamine) is the acetylated version of the most abundant amino acid found in skeletal muscle tissue...glutamine. N.A.G is more stable and metabolically efficient at delivering glutamines biological effects over conventional Glutamine or Glutamine Peptides. N.A.G will play a role in increasing muscle volume, glycogen storage, growth hormone production, and it will also positively affect ones own immune system function.

What is Micronized Taurine? What are the benefits of it?
|
|
|
Micronized Taurine is the 2nd most abundant amino acid found in skeletal muscle. Taurine and sulfur are considered to be factors necessary for the control of many biochemical changes that take place in the aging process. It was also found to aid in the clearing of free radical wastes.
Micronized Taurine aids the movement of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in and out of cells and thus helps generate nerve impulses. It has also been shown to aid in cardiovascular health.
