Gaspari Nutrition 's BCAA 6000 is a 4:1:1 ratio of high-quality branched-chain amino acids, with an increased amount of leucine, in a formula that delivers clinically recommended and effective amounts of these nutrients with every dose.
Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) get their name from their unique molecular structure , which is different from that of other amino acids.
All branched-chain amino acids fall into the category of " essential amino acids " because the body cannot synthesize them from other compounds and they must be obtained through proper nutrition.
Bodybuilders and advanced athletes have known for years that BCAAs aid in protein synthesis , which can lead to decreased recovery time, increased lean muscle mass, and improved overall form and endurance.
Adding highly absorbable forms of vitamins B-6 and B-12 to the branched-chain amino acid complex may also increase energy levels as well as endurance , which would lead to optimizing training while aiding recovery.
