Extreme Nutrition's Branched Chain Aminos are the most potent branched chains available. Among the most beneficial and effective supplements in any sports nutrition program are branched chain amino acids. These are the essential aminos: leucine, isoleucine, and valine.

Essential amino acids cannot be made by the body. You must get them from complete protein foods or combinations of incomplete vegetable foods. There are 9 essential amino acids: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine.

The essential branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are of special importance for athletes because they are metabolized in the muscle, rather than in the liver. After digestion, protein is broken down into individual amino acids. These aminos can either be used to build new proteins or be burned as fuel to produce energy. BCAAs have the unique advantage of being most likely to help build muscle! Extreme Nutrition's Branched Chain Aminos benefits include:

• BCAA powder with Instant Dispersion Technology.

• 3 grams of active amino acids per serving.
