Summary
BCAA 1000 contains a potent balance of Branched Chain Amino Acids which are building blocks of muscle mass and size. Metabolized directly in the muscle, BCAAs, may improve nitrogen retention by sparing other amino acid groups for repair and rebuilding. The Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's), so named because of their unique branched chemical structure, are essential in that the body cannot make them from other compounds. In recent times, these amino acids have been investigated for their potential anti-catabolic (preventing muscle breakdown) and anabolic (muscle building) effects.

Q & A
- Q. Hi i weigh 72kg and i am trying to build six packs and muscle.I am taking tonalin CLA and omega 3 1 capsule each after dinner.I am thinking of adding a protein shake or BCAA .Please advice me which one should i prefer and also whether it is good to combine with CLA and omega 3 ?
- A.
If you are going for just the one then i'd go for the protein shake such as 100% Gold standard whey because this will have added BCAA's in it along your protein. They are also fine to combine with cla and omega-3.
- Q. Does BCAA have any side effects?
- A.
There are no side effects to using BCAA's
- Q. (1)When is the best time to take this on an empty stomache or with a meal??
(2)can this also be taken with protein shake post workout or would that be pointless because protein shake is pretty much the same ?? - A.
Consume 2 BCAA 1000 capsules between meals, 30-45 minutes before workouts, and/or immediately after workouts for best results.
- Q. i am on a fat loss diet..to lose fat and acheive lean muscular build...i workout on a regular basis especially with weights and i often notice muscle breakdown and loss of muscle density in the long-term....will this product help me to build muscle definition and stop muscle breakdown like i seem to naturally do ???
- A.
You should take some whey protein and/or a BCAA product like this or an Essential Amino Acid (EAA) product (like EAA Stack) before and after training. Also, take a protein supplement between meals and with meals and snacks that are low in protein and drop some of your carbs if you are worried about the added calories. Higher protein diets definitely work better for fat loss and for maintaining mass whilst cutting
- Q. Hi,
I am about to add "Optimum Nutrition BCAA 1000 Caps 400ct" in my daily routine and wondering if you can guide me if its ingredient meets my requirement.
If the product is suitable for vegetarians than its ok for me but if it is not then I want to confirm followings.
Basically I am looking for a “Hillal” product. In case if you are not familiar with term “Hillal” then here is the definition.
If it passes the below mentioned requirements then I will consider it “Hillal” and it will be ok for me.
Product do not include Swine/pork and its by-products
* Animals improperly slaughtered or dead before slaughtering
* Animals killed in the name of anyone other than (God)
* Alcohol and intoxicants
* Carnivorous animals, birds of prey and land animals without external ears
* Blood and blood by-products
* Foods contaminated with any of the above products - A.
This contains gelatin from either cow or pig origin, so is not Hallil. With capsules, unless they say "Vegi Cap" or something similar, assume they are from animal sources.
- Q. How do i take these and how many tabs per day'
- A.
Take 2 caps, 2 or 3 times per day but you can exceed this because aminos are just the constituents of proteins. Perhaps take more on training days or when you haven't eaten much protein that day.
