This product supplies three essential amino acids, leucine, isoleucine and valine, combined in a 2:1:1 ratio thought to be the optimal ratio for these three amino acids. As with our other amino acids they are presented in their 'free-form' which means they are ready to be absorbed and used by the body.
  • A white powder in a clear hard shell capsule.
  • 180 capsules.
  • Maintains muscle tissue.
  • Helps to prevent muscle stores of glycogen.
  • Prevents muscle tissue breakdown during training.
  • These amino acids are the only ones actually metabolised in the muscle.
  • Useful for high intensity sport and resistance training.
Leucine, isoleucine and valine, the three essential amino acids, cannot be synthesised by your body. They are not metabolised in the stomach; instead they are the only amino acids actually metabolised in the muscle, making up 33% of muscle protein. They are very anabolic, they build muscle, and are highly anti-catabolic, they stop muscle breakdown, so are particularly useful for high intensity sport and resistance training. These essential branch chain amino acids (BCAA) are presented in high protein foods such as meat and dairy products.

As with all Lamberts amino acids, Lamberts branch chain amino acids are presented in its free-form for maximum absorption. Lamberts BCAA contains the optimal ratio of the three amino acids (2:1:1).
