The branched chain amino acid (BCAA) category includes three essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine and valine. Essential amino acids must be obtained through the diet; they cannot be made in the body. Unlike other amino acids, BCAAs are primarily processed in muscle tissue inside the mitochondria.

While protein in general is thought to stimulate muscle growth, BCAAs, and leucine in particular, are vital to muscle growth and repair. In fact, studies have shown that protein blends without leucine did not actually stimulate muscle development. When taken before and after exercise, BCAAs can prevent protein breakdown and enhance recovery. BCAAs can also help preserve muscle in people with weakened conditions. They support muscle maintenance, and have the unique ability to promote muscle growth in non-exercising muscles when other muscles are worked.
