Description

Branched-chain amino acids are absolutely essential in our bodies, as the body cannot produce them. During stress, such as training or lack of optimal nutrition, these are the first to be depleted from the muscles.

Leucine is one of the essential amino acids that belongs to the BCAA group. Scientific results prove that leucine directly stimulates skeletal muscle protein synthesis. High levels of leucine in the body are an indication of anabolic state.

Leucine promotes recovery and protects muscle tissues from breakdown.

    This review is about the flavour: Mango

    It does its job like any other BCAA and quite well, the mango flavor is very nice, slightly sweet I would say but overall it tends towards a neutral taste

    The smell is awful. However, the taste is really nice and it is enjoyable with cold water. The solubility is very good and effortless. Now let's talk about the... essence. It was used for a month with a dosage of 5 gr. as stated on the packaging immediately after the workout.
    My workout includes one day of 8-10 km running or 30-35 km cycling, and the other day is weightlifting (full body). I don't rest any day.
    As for running, I didn't see any improvement in endurance. There was a marginal improvement in weightlifting, visible but small. My diet is strict and I follow a nutritionist's program diligently. I weigh 70 kg and my goal is not to gain or lose a gram but to improve the fat/muscle ratio.
    So, mixed feelings. To be honest, I didn't expect miracles, but I expected a little more in terms of endurance and a bit more in weightlifting, which didn't happen.
    Perhaps one month is ultimately a short period to evaluate such products.
    My experience tells me that protein powders have more visible results, at least for me, compared to the amino acids I have tried from time to time.
    I'm not saying it's a bad or good product, I just expected a little more considering the workout I do.
