BULLETPROOF BCAA is a blend of 4000mg of Branched Chain Amino Acids and 1000mg of Glutamine for lean muscle and recovery. BULLETPROOF BCAA contains the ideal ratio of 2 parts Leucine to 1 part Isoleucine and Valine.*
These amino acids increase protein synthesis and nitrogen retention, both essential to building lean muscle. BCAAs are metabolized directly in the muscle and are considered "essential" because the body cannot build them from other compounds. Instead, they must come from diet or supplementation. Take your results to a whole new level with this great tasting drink!
LEUCINE
LEUCINE IS OFTEN CONSIDERED TO BE THE KING OF AMINO ACIDS BECAUSE IT’S THE PRIMARY ACTIVATOR OF MPS. WITHOUT A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF LEUCINE PRESENT, YOUR ABILITY TO RECOVER AND BUILD MUSCLE WILL BE DRASTICALLY REDUCED. THIS IS WHY LEUCINE IS THE HIGHEST-DOSED AMINO ACID IN BULLETPROOF BCAA, SO YOU REAP ALL OF ITS MUSCLE-BUILDING BENEFITS.
ISOLEUCINE
SIMILAR TO LEUCINE, ISOLEUCINE ALSO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES MPS, BUT IT’S ALSO CAPABLE OF ENHANCING GLUCOSE UPTAKE INTO SKELETAL MUSCLE. GLUCOSE IS ONE OF THE BODY’S PRIMARY FUEL SOURCES. SO ISOLEUCINE MAY HELP BOOST PERFORMANCE AND FACILITATE RECOVERY BY SHUTTLING MORE GLUCOSE TO THE WORKING MUSCLES.
VALINE
IN ADDITION TO ACTIVATING MPS, VALINE CONTRIBUTES TO THE SYNTHESIS OF GLYCOGEN. GLYCOGEN IS THE BODY’S WAY OF STORING CARBOHYDRATES FOR LATER USE. GLYCOGEN IS MAINLY PRESENT IN SKELETAL MUSCLE AND IS USED TO FUEL EXERCISE OR IN THE LIVER TO MAINTAIN APPROPRIATE LEVELS OF BLOOD GLUCOSE. HAVING ADEQUATE GLYCOGEN LEVELS IS CRUCIAL FOR ENERGY PRODUCTION, RECOVERY, MUSCLE BUILDING, AND PERFORMANCE.
RECOVERY BLEND
GLUTAMINE
GLUTAMINE IS CLASSIFIED AS A NON-ESSENTIAL AMINO ACID SINCE THE BODY CAN PRODUCE IT ENDOGENOUSLY. HOWEVER, THERE ARE TIMES WHEN YOUR BODY COULD BENEFIT FROM MORE THAN IT CAN CREATE ON ITS OWN, SUCH AS INJURY, ILLNESS, OR INTENSE EXERCISE. GLUTAMINE IS INVOLVED IN A VARIETY OF BODILY FUNCTIONS, BUT IT’S ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR MUSCLE GROWTH/REPAIR, IMMUNE SYSTEM FUNCTION, AND GASTROINTESTINAL HEALTH.
