Essential Amino Acids ~ BCAAs
Amino acids are known as the building blocks of life. These organic compounds combine to form proteins, which help to build muscles, provide structure and function for our organs and tissues, and make up our cells.
The nine essential amino acids are so named because the body cannot make them, and they must come from the diet.
One of the most recognized groups of essential amino acids is branched-chain amino acids ~ BCAAs ~ leucine, isoleucine, and valine.
BCAAs act like a signaling mechanism, or a key in the ignition of a vehicle, that turns on muscle synthesis.

Supporting muscles during a workout is critical for athletes and important for anyone who wants to push through personal barriers during exercise.
When taken during a workout, BCAAs can reduce muscle breakdown and are a readily available source of energy for working muscles.
Furthermore, these amino acids are important for muscle recovery after strenuous workouts because they trigger the cellular mechanism for rebuilding proteins in muscle.

In a published meta-analysis in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, L-carnitine was found to significantly improve muscle soreness for up to 96 hours after exercise.
Importantly, supplementation with L-carnitine was found to have even higher effects in those less experienced with exercise compared with trained participants.
AMPED BCAA Plus is a stimulant-free formula that features L-carnitine to help sustain energy levels while supporting fat burning during exercise.
