Branch Chain Amino Acids, most commonly shortened to BCAA, are made up of the amino acids L-Valine, L-Leucine and L-Isoleucine, respectively. While BCAAs are found in their greatest natural quantities in products such as red meat and many types of dairy, protein supplements synthesized from an egg base or whey are ideal for finding concentrated amounts.

These amino acids are referred to as Branch Chain Amino Acids because they have a chemical structure that separates them from the rest of the amino acid family. In addition, these BCAAs make up 40% of total body protein content and represent around 15 to 25% of total protein intake overall.

CONCENTRATION OF BCAAS

BCAA is a mixture of three essential amino acids - leucine, isoleucine and valine - that cannot be produced in the human body, however, have very important biological functions. Leucine, for instance, is crucial for muscle hypertrophy (aka may help with muscle growth) not only because it is an important building block for muscle, but also because it signals the body to start muscle protein synthesis (aka may help build muscle).

The blend of ingredients that is found to be most effective in BCAAs is a mixture of 2:1:1 of Leucine, Isoleucin, and Valine, respectively. This product contains an insignificant amount of lecithin. Supplements should be stored in an area that is both dry and cool and away from the light.

BCAAs have a grainy look and a white coloration. They are bitter in taste and are totally insoluble. The powder can be administered effectively by sprinkling on a meal, but since it is so bitter, the most common preference is to blend the supplement into some kind of smoothie or fruit-based puree.

BCAA SIDE EFFECTS

People that introduce BCAAs into their system too rapidly have reported experiencing fatigue, muscle stress and muscle pains; this should subside if introduced in smaller amounts and over time, rather than all at once. Although there are no known drug interactions associated with the supplement, it may be wise to first discuss use with a physician. This supplement should be taken in lower doses than recommended if liver and kidney issues are of a concern.

TIPS

During exercise, it is common to consume Branch Chain Amino Acids combined with a fast-release carbohydrate such as Dextrose or Maltodextrin. This is designed to prevent fatigue and thus improve athletic performance. BCAAs also stack well with L-Glutamine: together they form an unbeatable muscle-preserving duo.

SAFETY

Branch Chain Amino Acids have been well researched and are a safe supplement. We already consume them daily in our natural diet, and there is no known toxicity of Branch Chain Amino Acids. In addition, there are no known bans or restrictions in regard to supplementing with Branch Chain Amino Acids.

• Pure Micronized Creatine Monohydrate - 99.99%*

• High-intensity energy*

• Vegan & Non-GMO*

• Wholesale Prices!

Creatine Monohydrate powder is taken from the compound Creatine, which is essential in the process of sending energy directly to muscle. It is naturally produced by the body. Supplements of Creatine Monohydrate are constantly being studied by nutritionists for their energy creation properties

CREATINE MONOHYDRATE CONCENTRATION

CREATINE MONOHYDRATE may help:

• Muscle Cells Produce More Energy
• Improve High-Intensity Exercise Performance
• Speed Up Muscle Growth
• Reduce Fatigue or Tiredness

There are no fillers of any kind to be found in this vegan-friendly supplement.

CREATINE MONOHYDRATE SIDE EFFECTS

If suggested serving size is ignored and more than recommended is taken, this may result in such diverse side effects as weight gain, stress, anxiety, depression, fatigue, diarrhea, kidney issues, rash, vomiting and other gastrointestinal problems. If mild side effects do occur, stop supplementation for 7 days and restart it at a lower dose.

Those taking diabetes medication may wish to avoid this supplement, as there is the potential for dangerous interactions. Those with liver damage, children under the age of 18 and women who are pregnant or nursing are cautioned from taking this supplement without proper discussion with a physician. Caffeine, when taken with Creatine, may also have the effect of increasing the likelihood of negative side effects. Creatine should not be taken with Caffeine under any circumstances. Because of the way it has potential to affect bodily functions, it is recommended that a Creatine course be discussed with a doctor first, no matter what the health condition of the person interested in taking the supplement is.

TIPS

This powder has no discernible smell or flavor. It has potential to be dissolved easily in water, juice, or shakes. Creatine Monohydrate is best taken with a simple sugar solution, which rapidly increases the uptake of Creatine to the muscle cells. Dextrose is the preferred simple sugar (carbohydrate), as this is a tried and tested combination. Some studies have also advocated the use of D-Ribose in conjunction with Creatine, as together they have been shown to increase muscular work capacity.

SAFETY

There is no known toxicity of Creatine Monohydrate, and there are no known bans or restrictions in regard to supplementation.
