L-leucine is one of the three branched chain aminoacids (bcaas) often referred to as the most important out of the three. It is easy to understand why: research has shown that adding free-form leucine to a regular protein and carbohydrate shake has a greater impact on muscle protein synthesis than that of consuming protein and carbs alone. How does it work? Higher doses of leucine are associated with the activation of the mtor pathway, which is related to increased protein synthesis. That is why you get the ratio of 8:1:1 with our bcaa capsules: there is an extra dose of leucine to boost your gains.
