BCAA Strong – Leucine Loaded BCAA with AKG
MHP’s BCAA Strong’s “ammonia scavenging” alpha-keto acid-BCAA recycling technology is a major scientific development in BCAA supplementation. BCAA Strong is formulated with a potent leucine loaded 10:1:1 BCAA ratio combined with alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) to optimize muscle growth, improve recovery and delay muscle fatigue for better workout performance. BCAA’s, and in particular leucine, are critical for stimulating protein synthesis to promote muscle growth, strength and recovery. BCAA Strong’s 5 g of BCAAs in a 10:1:1 ratio delivers over 4 g of leucine to trigger protein synthesis.+
AKG – BCAA Recycling Technology Improves Performance
It is well known that protein breakdown is accelerated during intensive exercise creating a catabolic state. Intensive exercise also increases ammonia concentration, which causes muscle fatigue and reduces exercise tolerance and performance. BCAA supplementation before and during exercise is an effective way to reduce protein breakdown and preserve muscle tissue. But what most athletes don’t know is that BCAAs during exercise can further elevate your ammonia concentrations. MHP researchers have formulated BCAA Strong to combat both protein breakdown and the accumulation of ammonia by adding a potent dosage of AKG (α-Ketoglutaric acid) to their BCAA Strong formula.+ AKG reduces ammonia concentration through a recycling process known as the alpha-keto acid-BCAA cycle. Research has shown that supplementation with AKG and its effect on reducing ammonia concentrations can improve training volume, maximum power output, performance and recovery.^ For stronger performance in the gym, go with BCAA Strong.
