Branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) have been used by top bodybuilders and other athletes for years due to their ability to support their training goals.* BCAAs are comprised of three powerful amino acids – leucine, isoleucine and valine – and are perfect for any hard-training athlete because they serve as key building blocks of muscle.*
What’s more, BCAAs are considered essential amino acids because your body can’t produce them on its own
Platinum 100% BCAA 8:1:1 is a branched chain amino acid formula designed with a potent BCAA ratio of 8:1:1 (leucine, isoleucine, valine). Unlike other BCAA pills that use ratios like 3:1:2 or 2:1:1, Platinum 100% BCAA 8:1:1 uses an 8:1:1 ratio to load your muscles with leucine with every serving.* mTOR is like a molecular switch that turns on the machinery that manufactures muscle proteins, and research shows leucine is one of the major activators of mTOR.* So leucine provides not just the building blocks for protein synthesis, it also plays a critical role in up-regulating the process
