Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) and Aspects of Exercise
Submitted by Harrison Broer MBA on Tue, 06/04/2019 - 18:13Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are the amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. These three amino acids comprise around 35% of the body’s amino acids and about 14-18% of the amino acids found in muscles and are considered essential because your body cannot create them. Instead, you can only get these BCAAs through diet [1].
