Vitakruid BCAA 4:1:1 l-leucine, l-isoleucine & l-valineWhat are BCAAs?
BCAA stands for Branched-Chain Amino Acids and refers to three essential amino acids: L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. BCAAs are essential because the body cannot produce them itself; we must obtain them through diet or supplements.
BCAA-rich foods
Amino acids, including BCAAs, are found in protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and milk. However, plant-based products also contain BCAAs. By consuming a variety of proteins, you get different types of amino acids. Nevertheless, it can sometimes be difficult for vegetarians, vegans, and (top) athletes to achieve an adequate BCAA intake, in which case a BCAA supplement can offer a solution.
Scientifically proven BCAA ratio of 4:1:1
BCAA 4:1:1 is a high-quality formula with three essential amino acids: L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine. This formula stands out due to its scientifically proven ratio of 4:1:1, with an emphasis on an extra high dosage of L-leucine (3350 mg).
BCAA supplements are available in different ratios, such as 2:1:1 and 4:1:1, where these numbers indicate the ratio of L-leucine. By choosing the 4:1:1 formula, we offer an increased concentration of L-leucine, which occurs naturally in proteins. BCAAs, or branched-chain amino acids, are the building blocks of proteins.
Easily soluble in water
We offer BCAAs in powder form. The product is easy to dose with the included measuring spoon and mixes well with water. This also makes it easy for sports enthusiasts who prefer to supplement their BCAAs before, during, or shortly after training. Moreover, we have ensured that the powder does not clump and is easy to stir.
Fresh tropical taste
Plant proteins often have a bitter, earthy taste. This means that drinking BCAA is not always very pleasant. Our BCAA 4:1:1 addresses this with a refreshing tropical taste. This allows you to optimally enjoy a shake with a tropical taste.
100% Vegan BCAA
Through a unique fermentation process, our BCAA 4:1:1 supplement is 100% vegan. The production process consists of several steps. Below, we explain how we make these essential plant-based amino acids.
Raw material control
Raw materials are tested for pesticides and heavy metals to ensure that only pure BCAA is processed.
Fermentation of glucose
Through fermentation, glucose is converted into three essential amino acids: L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine.
Pre-processing
The BCAAs are ground and sieved to ensure uniform particle size.
Mixing
The BCAAs are mixed in the correct ratio, in this case, 4:1:1, and by adding purified water, a homogeneous mass is created.
Drying
Excess moisture is removed, and a second control moment takes place, now for moisture content and stability. This ensures that the shelf life can be extended.
