BCAA Drink is a naturally flavored pre- and post-workout amino acid supplement that is ideal for anyone from casual gym-goers to even elite athletes. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are composed of three essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. These particular amino acids must be obtained through diet since humans don’t synthesize them endogenously.

BCAAs are rapidly absorbed into the blood and take action quickly. These particular amino acids have been shown to:

  • Support muscle protein synthesis

  • Assist recovery during and after resistance training

  • Support body composition

  • Reduce fatigue, allowing you to train harder and longer

 

How to use

Mix one scoop in 6-8 ounces of water before and after your workout as a dietary supplement, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
