The Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's) are a group of so-called essential amino acids consisting of Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine. The BCAA's are among the 9 essential amino acids for humans, because our bodies can’t manufacture them, so their only source is our daily food or food supplementation. On the other hand, they account for 35% of the essential amino acids in muscle proteins. Standard BCAA products typically contain a 2:1:1 ratio of Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine, however on the market the new standard for BCAA’s is a dominant ratio of Leucine, 8:1:1 to the other BCAA’s. With this ratio you don’t have to increase the total product dosage to get high levels of Leucine. However, our BCAA COMPLEX formula doesn’t just stop with a new BCAA ratio! Glutamine is a top ingredient for athletes in popularity, so we included it to boost Glutamine intake levels as well. To increase the complexity of the formula, we added the amino L-Alanine as well, which is second only to Leucine in rate of occurrence in proteins and it’s par ticularly concentrated in meats!
Finally, BCAA COMPLEX is a source of Vitamin B6, which contributes to*: the regulation of hormonal activity normal energy-yielding metabolism the reduction of tiredness and fatigue normal functioning of the immune system and nervous systems normal protein and glycogen metabolism normal red blood cell formation

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Mix 1 serving (10 g) daily in at least 300 ml water. Allow the drink to sit for a while to increase the dissolution of ingredients. Consume around, and/or during your workouts or competitions. Extra servings can be taken any time when aminos are needed, for example every 3 hours if Leucine is not provided by your food.
