Amino acids valine, leucine and isoleucine are the muscle sparing amino acids also know as the branched chain amino acids. These amino acids preserve the muscles and all other tissue (except bones and fat in the body) from constant breakdown due to metabolism. The body regenerates tissue using these branched chained amino acids as the building blocks for new protein.
Effective for:
For wasting disease such as-
- AIDS
- Cancer
- End stage kidney failure
- Critically ill patients
Supplements:
A therapeutic dose of the branched chained amino acid is best taken along with L-glutamine.
Recommended Dose:
- 4-5 gm valine
- 3-4 grams leucine
- 2-3 grams isoleucine
- 4-6 grams L-glutamine
