Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) Sachet

Product Description

Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) are made up of three essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. They are essential to the human body and critical for muscle hypertrophy (growth) and maintenance. They have a significant positive effect on the generation of various tissues, healing and metabolic processes via the protein synthesis in the liver.

Benefits of BCCA:
BCAAs play a pivotal role in human metabolism and are actively used in the treatment against cirrhosis of the liver and reduce complications in liver problems, this supplement helps preserve and restore muscle mass as well as improve hepatic encephalopathy, which is a complication of liver disease that can lead to confusion, loss of consciousness and coma.
Brain conditions due to liver disease (chronic hepatic encephalopathy, latent hepatic encephalopathy)
Cirrhosis (liver scarring)
Toxic metabolic liver disorders (alcoholic & diabetic liver degeneration) & and other hepatic intoxication.
BCAAs may play a role in weight loss, reducing complications of liver disease, blood sugar regulation and more
BCAAs improve hormone balance for greater strength, power and endurance by increasing testosterone and decreasing cortisol in addition to reducing inflammation
BCAAs enhance strength endurance and decrease fatigue, because BCAAs can be burned as energy to replenish ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate) levels, the prime energy molecule in the human body. They also delay fatigue and tiredness by inhibiting Tryptophan receptors in the brain.
BCAAs improves insulin health and metabolic rate for an advantageous body composition. Insulin sensitivity may also reduce the risk of diabetes

About Composition:
Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) refers to three amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. These amino acids are grouped together because they are the only three amino acid to have a chain that branches off to one side. For people with low dietary protein intake, BCAA supplementation can promote muscle protein synthesis and increase muscle growth.

L–Leucine:
L-leucine is a branched amino acid that is used by the body for building muscle and providing energy. It is also an essential amino acid, since it cannot be manufactured by your body and hence must be taken as a supplement or as part of your diet. It also helps to preserve the body's stores of glycogen, used as an emergency energy source. Other than these properties, it possesses others, such as the maintenance of the nitrogen balance in the body.This amino acid can also be used to help those suffering from kidney and liver problems because it increases liver protein synthesis. It is therefore a useful adjunct both to diabetics and those suffering from liver and kidney disease.

L-Isoleucine:
L-Isoleucine is an essential acid that was first isolated in 1904 from fibrin, and it is one of the three branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), alongside Valine and Leucine. Relative to the other two BCAAs, isoleucine is intermediate for its ability to induce muscle protein synthesis (stronger than valine, but much weaker than leucine) but is able to significantly increase glucose uptake and the usage of glucose during exercise.
L-Isoleucine is useful in keeping energy levels stabilized through its ability to regulate blood sugar. L-Isoleucine is unique in that it can break itself down so that it can provide fuel when our body needs it. Glucose is usually obtained from our consumption of carbohydrates, yet when an individual is very low in blood sugar, the cells engage in gluconeogenesis producing glucose energy. Isoleucine makes this process possible. It also can convert into ketone bodies which are energy providing.

L–Valine:
Valine is a branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) that works with the other two BCAAs, isoleucine and leucine, to promote normal growth, repair tissues, regulate blood sugar, and provide the body with energy. Valine helps stimulate the central nervous system, and is needed for proper mental functioning.
Valine also helps remove potentially toxic excess nitrogen from the liver, and is able to transport nitrogen to other tissues in the body as needed. Valine may help treat liver and gallbladder disease, as well as damage to these organs caused by alcoholism and drug abuse. Valine may help treat or even reverse hepatic encephalopathy, or alcohol-related brain damage.
So, BCAAs may help reduce complications linked to liver failure. One possible complication is hepatic encephalopathy (HE), which can lead to confusion, loss of consciousness and coma. BCAA-enriched solutions may help improve liver function, reduce the risk of complications In advanced liver cirrhosis long term nutritional supplements with oral BCAA is useful to prevent progressive hepatic failure and improves surrogate markers and health status. It also raises plasma albumin level, improves quality of life of patient and decrease incidence of subsequent hepatic encephalopathy.
BCAA supplements may also be effective at reducing fatigue and improving weakness, sleep quality and muscle cramps in individuals with liver disease.

Mechanism of Action:
Branched-chain amino acids stimulate the building of protein in muscle and possibly reduce muscle breakdown. Branched-chain amino acids seem to prevent faulty message transmission in the brain cells of people with advanced liver disease, mania, tardive dyskinesia, and anorexia.
BCAAs play several other roles in your body too. First, your body can use them as building blocks for protein and muscle. They may also be involved in regulating your blood sugar levels by preserving liver and muscle sugar stores and stimulating your cells to take in sugar from your bloodstream. BCAA's are directly transported to the bloodstream through the liver, while some exchange in the intestinal viscera and go directly to the bloodstream also.

Side Effects:
The product is POSSIBLY SAFE for most adults.
There is no disadvantage associated with the product if taken under the recommended usage. However, some are nausea and fatigue

Special Precautions & Warnings:
For Pregnancy & Breast Feeding:Pregnant and lactating mothers should not take any single supplement in higher than normal doses unless recommended by a health care provider for special conditions. The combination should only be used in pregnancy and lactation if benefits outweigh the risk.

Storage:
Store in a cool, dry and dark place. Keep protected from direct sunlight.
