Description
Amino acids, when ingested, bypass liver processing and are sent to muscle tissue. This feature is used to restore myocytes in the presence of microtraumas after heavy physical exertion and to neutralize the catabolic breakdown of muscle proteins.
- Leucine is involved in the synthesis of muscle fiber protein molecules. Also, the amino acid regulates the activation of immunocompetent cells, thereby increasing the body's defense. The compound promotes more efficient glucose processing by increasing the secretion of insulin by the pancreas.
- Valine restores damaged muscle fibers, promotes their growth, and improves the coordination of myocyte contractions.
- Isoleucine reduces the feeling of fatigue, accelerates the growth of muscle mass. In addition, this amino acid is involved in erythropoiesis - the formation of red blood cells in the bone marrow, and also exhibits a moderate antibacterial effect.
Thus, taking the sports supplement FIT BCAA provides not only the growth of muscle tissue, but also has a beneficial effect on many internal organs.
