Description Amino acids are the fundamental components of proteins and are necessary for numerous functions of the body. In addition to being necessary for protein synthesis, the body also uses them to create hormones, enzymes, neurotransmitters, antibodies and nutrient transporters. Foods that provide an important contribution of amino acids are meat, fish, soy, eggs and milk. Amino acids are classified as essential and non-essential. While the body can produce non-essential amino acids from other amino acids, essential amino acids cannot be produced by the body and must be ingested in adequate amounts through the diet. Within this last group, the amino acids valine, leucine and isoleucine have a branched structure and are found in high proportion in the muscle. BCAA Plus is one of the most highly rated products in Solgar®'s amino acid range. Contains the essential branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) L-leucine, L-isoleucine and L-valine. In addition, vitamin B6 is added, which contributes to the normal metabolism of proteins and glycogen.
