BCAA - is it a supplement for muscle regeneration?

According to many experts, regeneration plays an equally important role in muscle development as systematic training and a balanced diet. However, in many cases, the quality of the regeneration may leave much to be desired. Is the use of supplements containing BCAAs the right way to optimally support regeneration?

Are BCAA supplements valuable for muscle regeneration?

The purpose of the BCAA products is commonly identified with their effect on supporting the natural mechanisms of muscle regeneration, especially after extremely intensive and exhausting workouts. Beginners and professional athletes around the world reach for supplements containing a complex of exogenous amino acids, which are an inseparable component of the daily diet and a fundamental component of proteins, which are elements contributing to the muscle tissue.

 

Why is it universally assumed that BCAA is actually useful in supporting muscle regeneration? These amino acids primarily affect the maintenance of a correct nitrogen balance, which maintains optimal conditions for working muscles during exercise or physical work. This, in turn, may translate into improved protection of muscle tissue against unwanted breakdown reactions, being exposed to damage not only through extremely intensive training but also e.g. insufficient supply of protein in the daily diet or an excessive calorie deficit during weight loss and fat reduction. The assumption that supplements with amino acids act as a "protective shield" is therefore justified.

What supplements containing BCAA are recommended for muscle regeneration?

The Olimp Sport Nutrition brand offer includes many products containing beneficial BCAAs. Each supplement has been developed with attention to every detail in the modern laboratories of the Olimp Laboratories pharmaceutical company.

 

Those who prefer powder supplements should definitely use the BCAA Xplode, which allows to prepare a refreshing drink with a high content (as much as 6 g!) of these amino acids.
