Promotes muscle function during exercise

*Branched chain amino acids provide safe nutritional support for
athletes and individuals seeking optimal lean muscle mass. The three
branched chain amino acids, leucine, isoleucine and valine, boost
energy while helping to counteract muscle protein breakdown during
exercise. In addition, the ingredients in this product promote the
biosynthesis of other amino acids, nucleotides, and biological
amines. Branched chain amino acids are unique in that they are not
metabolized by the liver.

BCAA promotes healthy muscle mass by boosting energy metabolism
in working muscle and by inhibiting protein breakdown during exercise.
