Bcaa 8:1:1 - Dietary supplement of branched chain amino acids with vitamins B1 and B6.

Yamamoto® Nutrition BCAA 8:1:1 is a food supplement based on branched chain amino acids (BCAA - Branched Chain Amino Acid) with vitamins B1 and B6.

The product has been manufactured in an innovative 8:1:1 ratio (8 parts L-Leucine, 1 part L-Valine and 1 part L-Isoleucine).
Branched-chain amino acids are a group of three essential amino acids, leucine, isoleucine and valine, which have a specific chemical property: the presence of a branched side chain. BCAAs are among the nine amino acids defined as essential for humans, because our bodies are unable to produce them.
The only possible way of supplying them is therefore through the daily diet or food supplementation.

BCAAs have conquered the world of sports supplementation in recent years, thanks to their high presence in muscle proteins, the absence of notable side effects and their potential ergogenic and myoprotective role. They are, in fact, suitable for supplementing the diet of athletes in various disciplines, both strength and endurance, who train daily.

They are used as:

Energy substrate before performance;
Anticatabolic remedy before, after and during performance;
Support for reducing muscle damage from intense exercise;
Support for reducing the feeling of fatigue and muscle exhaustion, especially during and after performance;
To optimise muscle growth.

The formula is also enriched with vitamin B1 (or thiamine), which supports normal energy metabolism by aiding the conversion of glucose into energy, and vitamin B6, which contributes to reducing tiredness and fatigue, maintaining normal protein and glycogen metabolism, stimulating brain function and preventing ageing.

Branched-chain amino acids account for 35% of the essential amino acids in muscle proteins. Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine are essential amino acids, provided by different dietary protein intakes or supplementation.

BCAAs can in fact be consumed as supplements, and their supplementation is suggested particularly close to intense training or after demanding physical work.
In BCAA 8:1:1, BCAAs are contained in an 8:1:1 ratio of Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine: in this formulation, which is more enriched with Leucine, they allow, according to several studies, better results in terms of supporting muscle mass and recovery.

How to use: take 5 tablets once a day with water or another drink, 30-40 minutes before training or competitions, or immediately after. On rest days, the product can be taken at any time of the day.
