2:1:1 BCAA Ratio – Leucine-Heavy for Results:
Each serving provides 1,000 mg of BCAAs in the optimal 2:1:1 ratio of L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine. Leucine plays a direct role in activating muscle protein synthesis (via the mTOR pathway), while isoleucine and valine contribute to energy regulation and muscle tissue repair.
Supports Muscle Recovery and Growth:
BCAAs are essential for repairing damaged muscle tissue after exercise and are rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream. Supplementing ensures that your muscles receive the necessary amino acids quickly — especially during catabolic states such as fasting, dieting, or long workouts.
Reduces Muscle Breakdown:
During prolonged or high-intensity training, the body may break down muscle protein for fuel. BCAAs help preserve lean muscle mass by serving as an alternative energy source and reducing protein catabolism.
Enhances Endurance and Performance:
BCAAs compete with tryptophan for entry into the brain, which can delay fatigue and reduce perceived exertion. This allows for greater focus, stamina, and prolonged workout intensity.
Capsule Convenience – No Mixing Required:
Perfect for users who dislike flavored powders or need portable supplementation. Each capsule delivers a concentrated dose without added fillers, artificial colors, or sweeteners. Excellent for travel, competitions, or on-the-go use.
Stack-Friendly and Versatile:
Can be combined with pre-workouts, creatine, whey protein, or intra-workout formulas without any ingredient conflict. Since it contains no stimulants, it fits easily into any supplement schedule.
Suitable for Cutting and Lean Goals:
BCAAs are non-caloric and do not interfere with fat loss or ketogenic diets. Their anti-catabolic effects help retain lean muscle tissue while in a calorie deficit.
Who Should Use This Product:
Strength athletes, powerlifters, and bodybuilders
Endurance athletes and HIIT trainers
Users in calorie-deficit or fasting states
Athletes training multiple times per day
Individuals sensitive to sweeteners or flavors
