Why should I take... BCAAs

-

Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) are well-known to body-builders, but are not just for the dedicated weightlift­er.

BCAAs are essential nutritiona­l building blocks of protein and can be found naturally in foods such as meat and dairy, so taking them as powder or capsule supplement­s is a good option for those on a vegan or vegetarian diet. Any form of exercise will stress the muscle tissue and BCAAs support rebuilding and recovery. They also help to sustain a healthy immune system.
