Amino Acid

Branched Chain Amino Acid, abbreviated as BCAA, is a type of amino acid with aliphatic side-chains having a branch. The branch contains a central carbon atom attached to three or more carbon atoms. Amino acid is essential nutrient that body draws from protein found in food. BCAA are the protienogenic amino acids of three types including leucine, valine and isoleucine. The main sources of such type of acid are meat, legumes and dairy products. Branched Chain Amino Acid is among the nine essential amino acids required by the human body. The share of such amino acid is 35% of all the amino acids. The name, branched has been accorded to it for the structure it shows. These are particularly important for human body and mammals for performing some certain functions in the body. Lack of this acid may result in loss of concentration and fatigue. A & Z Food Additives offers clinically tested supplement for Branched Chain Amino Acid at reasonable prices.
