Bcaas

Meaning

Bcaas, or Branched-Chain Amino Acids, are a distinct group of three essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. These critical protein building blocks are uniquely metabolized primarily in skeletal muscle tissue rather than undergoing significant hepatic processing. They play a pivotal role in stimulating muscle protein synthesis, supporting muscle tissue repair, and mitigating muscle breakdown. Bcaas are highly relevant in the hormonal health space for their direct contribution to maintaining lean body mass and metabolic integrity.
