LEUCINE

What is leucine? LEUCINE is one of the three branched-chain amino acids (the other two being Isoleucine and Valine) and is extremely important. It is naturally found in nuts, brown rice, whole wheat, cottage cheese, chicken, and fish. Unlike amino acids, which are metabolized in the liver, BCAAs are metabolized in the muscles and are integral for protein synthesis and for preserving lean muscle tissue. LEUCINE is one of the most concentrated amino acids within the skeletal muscle tissue. Build hard, lean, dense Muscle Fast! What does leucine do? Leucine stimulates muscle protein synthesis by activating the mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin) pathway, a central regulator of muscle growth and recovery. By increasing consumption, the mTOR pathway is signaled and protein synthesis is increased. No single ingredient has the pure, unadulterated anabolic power that LEUCINE does. Simply stated, it is essential for achieving a positive nitrogen balance and building lean muscle mass.* Benefit
