BCAA injections promote muscle protein synthesis and increase muscle growth over time.  BCAA’s can also be used to prevent fatigue in novice athletes and help improve exercise performance and reduce the rate of lean muscle break down.  

Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA’s) refers to the three amino acids: L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine and L-Valine. Together these represent around 35–40% of all essential amino acids present in your body and 14–18% of those found in your muscles. The name "branched-chain amino acids" is derived from the structure of these compounds. Each one has a forked outcropping that looks a bit like a tree branch, hence the name. BCAA’s fall into the category of essential amino acids because we cannot synthesize them on their own and therefore must get adequate amounts through dietary sources. In fact, even though there are about 20 amino acids that the muscles use for growth, the BCAA’s comprise roughly a third of the amino acids within muscle tissue. 

For people with low dietary protein intake, BCAA injections become essential to promote muscle protein synthesis and increase muscle growth over time. Studies support that BCAA’s can also be used to prevent fatigue in novice athletes and help improve exercise performance and reduce the rate of lean muscle break down.

L-Isoleucine can help increase energy and help recovery experienced during intense and prolonged training.

L-Leucine has been found to slow the breakdown of muscle tissue by increasing the synthesis of muscle proteins.

L-Valine may help in removing excess nitrogen from the liver and in transporting nitrogen to other tissues in the body as required.
