Instant BCAA 2:1:1

Yalla Protein’s Instant BCAA 2:1:1 contains the highest quality essential amino acids; leucine, isoleucine and valine in optimal ratios to enhance exercise performance, boost muscle growth, reduce fatigue and support weight loss.

BCAAs make up a large chunk of the body’s total amino acid pool and as these essential amino acids can’t be produced by your body so they must come from your diet — making Yalla Protein’s Instant BCAA 2:1:1 super-convenient as you can simply add it to water or your favourite protein shake.

What are the benefits of Instant BCAA 2:1:1?

Besides helping with energy production, stimulating muscle growth and helping with weight loss, there are many other roles that BCAAs may play in your body:

• Your body can use them as building blocks for protein and building muscle.
• Reduction in physical and mental fatigue when working out and decreased muscle soreness after strength-based exercises.
• BCAAs are mostly broken down in the muscle rather than in the liver and because of this BCAAs play a role in energy production during exercise.
• Regulating your blood sugar levels by preserving liver and muscle sugar stores

The roles of Leucine, Iso-valine and Valine

Leucine is thought have the biggest impact on your body's capacity to build muscle proteins. Meanwhile, isoleucine and valine seem more effective at producing energy and regulating your blood sugar levels. Hence using the optimal ratio of 2:1:1, gives you the perfect balance between muscle build and producing energy / regulating blood sugar levels.

When should you take Instant BCAA 2:1:1?

Instant BCAA's can be consumed any time of the day – morning, afternoon, or night, but it is widely believed that sipping on Instant BCAA 2:1:1 during a workout can give you a mental and physical boost and delay fatigue. We recommend that you take BCAA’s 30-45 minutes prior to working out to give you body time to absorb and direct them to your muscles

Maintaining high levels of BCAA throughout the day is essential to stop your body from using muscle protein as fuel and use fat stores instead. Working out increase muscle stress, giving your body the additional amino acids before and after will reduce tiredness and help you push through any pain.
