Before we dive into understanding exactly what Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) are, let me ask you a question; when was the last time you thought about getting enough fluids in your body to reach your health and fitness goals? Staying well-hydrated is not just important for survival. Your hydration status is equally as important as getting enough rest and quality food for muscle growth and improved physical performance. Moreover, meeting your daily hydration needs could be the difference between accomplishing your body composition goals and not seeing improvements when you think you’re doing everything right.

 

BCAA COMPLEX™ by Stance Supplements contains 5 grams of Instantized BCAAs per serving at a ratio of 2:1:1 (“2” for Leucine and “1” for Isoleucine and “1” for Valine). Why is that important?

Scientists have conducted numerous studies on BCAAs and their ability to help muscles both during and after exercise. Research supports a ratio of 2:1:1 because the body needs twice as much Leucine as Isoleucine and Valine. Most experts recommend 4-5 grams of BCAAs per serving.

An added benefit of drinking BCAA COMPLEX™ is it is formulated with key electrolytes to help keep you hydrated throughout your workout, as well as other important aminos like L-Citrulline and L-Glutamine. Plus, the flavors are out-of-this-world delicious (we’re looking at you, Passion Punch, Peach Gummy, and Strawberry Sour Belts!)

Dehydration occurs when you use or lose more fluid than you take in, and your body doesn't have enough water and other fluids to carry out its normal functions. If you don't replace lost fluids, you will get dehydrated. And with that, proper hydration during any sort of physical activity is an absolute necessity - there are few more self-evident statements in the entire field of sports nutrition.  Now enough about the importance of hydration;

Enter BCAAs; arguably one of the most popular and widely used supplements in the entire fitness industry today. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are a group of three essential amino acids; Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine. BCAAs are considered essential because, unlike non-essential amino acids, your body cannot produce them; therefore, it is essential to ingest them through diet or supplementation.  By now, most know that amino acids are the building blocks of protein and lean muscle.

Leucine is one of 9 essential amino acids in humans (from food). Leucine is important for protein synthesis and many metabolic functions.

Isoleucine is one of 9 essential amino acids in humans (provided by food) and appears to promote glucose consumption and uptake.

Valine is one of 9 essential amino acids in humans (provided by food) and is utilized to synthesize proteins in the human body.

You may have seen athletes and others in the gym drinking a colored liquid. No, it’s most likely not a vodka/cranberry cocktail but most likely BCAAs. If you’re working out regularly, whether with weights, cardio or both, and you’re not supplementing with BCAAs as part of your regular routine, I’d highly suggest you start! I’d go so far as to say that you may have been living under a rock if you’re an athlete, regular gym-goer and/or a fitness enthusiast, if you haven’t heard about the importance of BCAA supplementation. Bottom line; BCAA supplements are commonly consumed by fitness enthusiasts in order to enhance exercise performance and ensure hydration and recovery when taken with water.
