CAA: 3 essential amino acids for those who want real progress in the gym

You've worked hard for every inch of muscle. And you know that what you give your muscles between workouts matters just as much as the work you put in in the gym.

L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine are the 3 essential amino acids known as BCAAs. They are part of the composition of muscle proteins and the body must obtain them from food or supplements.

When you want to put on weight, building muscle protein is key. A study by researchers at Exeter, Stirling, Birmingham, and the University of California, Davis showed that BCAAs can boost this process after strength training.

Recovery is also important. After squats, you sometimes feel every step. Researchers at Northumbria University and partner institutions have linked BCAA intake to reduced muscle soreness and better strength recovery after strenuous exercise.

By definition, you want to keep what you've built. In a study from the University of Guelph, BCAAs reduced markers of muscle protein breakdown during exercise. A possible protective role in that context; preserving lean muscle mass requires adequate protein and strength training.

For endurance, a study from Rutgers University observed an increase in time to exhaustion after taking BCAAs. The test involved moderate cycling.

At Aronia Charlottenburg, we created BCAA AMINO DRIVE 800 mg, from the FUEL4SPORTS series.

Each capsule provides 400 mg of L-leucine, 200 mg of L-isoleucine and 200 mg of L-valine, in free form, in a ratio of 2:1:1. The formula includes HPMC vegetable capsule and NU-FLOW® rice fiber, with an anti-caking effect.

Take 1 capsule 3 times a day, with plenty of water, preferably before, during or immediately after training. You get 2400 mg of BCAA daily, and the 90 capsules are enough for 30 days.

The result? An extra supply of amino acids for the muscles you put to work with every workout.

About L-leucine

The series stimulates the muscles. L-leucine participates in their response. This essential amino acid helps activate the process by which the body builds muscle protein, along with other necessary amino acids.

Researchers at McMaster University observed that adding leucine to a low-protein drink stimulated muscle protein building in the hours after consumption, including after strength training.

About L-isoleucine

The workout ends, but the work in the muscles continues. L-isoleucine is part of the muscle protein and is part of the BCAA family. The body cannot produce it on its own, so it must be obtained from food or supplements.

A study from Northumbria University and partner institutions has linked BCAA supplementation with reduced muscle soreness and improved strength recovery after exercise. The results are for the blend of 3 amino acids, including isoleucine.

About L-valine

When the effort is prolonged, the muscles still need resources. L-valine is an essential amino acid from the BCAA family, which is part of the structure of muscle proteins and can be used by the body to obtain energy during exercise.

At Rutgers University, participants who received a BCAA blend performed better in a moderate-intensity cycling test in the heat. Valine was part of the combination studied; the result refers to that context, not to its separate effect.

3 essential amino acids for muscles, in just 3 capsules per day

You've heard of BCAAs. They're L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine, 3 essential amino acids that your body uses to build muscle protein. We've brought them together in a simple formula that complements your diet, along with training and rest.

– Includes the 3 BCAA amino acids: L-leucine, L-isoleucine and L-valine, in free form, in a ratio of 2:1:1.
– Each capsule contains 800 mg of BCAA, and 3 capsules give you 2400 mg per day.
– BCAAs can stimulate muscle protein building after strength training, according to a study conducted by researchers from Exeter, Stirling, Birmingham and the University of California, Davis.
– They can support recovery after exercise, being associated with reduced muscle soreness and better strength recovery in a study from Northumbria University and partner institutions.
– They can help muscles lose less protein during exercise, according to a study conducted by researchers at the University of Guelph.
– Can support endurance under certain conditions: a study from Rutgers University observed increased time to exhaustion in moderate cycling in the heat.
– Contains NU-FLOW® rice fiber, a plant-based ingredient that prevents powder from clumping, without other added anti-caking agents.
– The bottle has 90 capsules for 30 days of consumption: 1 capsule 3 times a day, with enough water, preferably before, during or immediately after training.
– It is part of FUEL4SPORTS, the Aronia Charlottenburg series for those who take their training seriously.

The result? An extra supply of amino acids in your diet, for the muscles you put to work during every workout.

Contraindications

BCAA is administered responsibly, as part of a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. The formula supplements dietary intake with L-leucine, L-isoleucine and L-valine, essential amino acids that are part of the composition of muscle proteins.

– BCAA is a food supplement and does not replace a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
– 3 capsules per day are recommended, taken 1 capsule 3 times a day, with a sufficient amount of water, preferably before, during or immediately after training.
– Each capsule contains 800 mg of BCAA. A daily dose of 3 capsules provides 2400 mg.
– Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
– If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, be sure to consult your doctor before use.
– If you are taking medication or suffer from medical conditions, especially kidney or liver conditions, be sure to consult your doctor before use.
– Keep the product out of the reach and sight of small children.
– Keep the bottle in its original packaging, in a dry place, away from light and heat sources.
– The product is hygroscopic, which means it can absorb moisture from the air. Keep the bottle tightly closed.
– Respect the best before date written on the packaging, where you can also find the batch number.

Administered as recommended, BCAA can be easily included in your routine, along with nutrition and rest, when you consistently go to the gym and take care of the muscles you work for.

ingredients

What it contains

– Branched-chain essential amino acids (BCAA): a mixture of L-leucine, L-isoleucine and L-valine, amino acids that make up muscle proteins and that the body cannot produce on its own, so it must obtain them from food or supplements.
