This review is about BCAA Plus of MyProtein.com

Since 2 months I changed my BCAA product to BCAA Plus. Time enough to review my experiences with my new Amino Acids.

But first here is what the product info tells:

Overview

BCAA's (Branched Chain Amino Acids) consist of the three amino acids Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine. BCAA's cannot be produced in the body and must be supplied through the diet. BCAA's have been shown to help with protein synthesis, helping your body cope with the stress of exercise.

BCAA's are required to maintain lean tissue and studies have shown they preserve your stores of glycogen (a stored form of carbohydrate that can be converted to energy). BCAA's also prevent catabolism during training and therefore can improve lean growth.

BCAA's are not like other amino acids as they are not metabolised in the stomach, and are instead metabolised directly in the muscle. This unique quality means that they build lean tissue and stop catabolism.

My Experience:

As a suggested use it is recommended consuming 3-5 Tablets 2-4 times daily for optimal results. Since I weigh 95-105kg I use 8 on hard workout days. 4 before and 4 after my workout. On normal and non workout days I use 6. 3 before and 3 after workout or two of them 3 times a day.

The ratio of this BCAA Plus product is 2:1:1. Before I used a product with a ratio of 4:1:1. So how is the difference to me between the two products. Actually I haven't recognized any big differences at all. Both products worked fine but to me the BCAA Plus is a bit more smooth for digestion. So if you have problems with digestion you can try this product and taste how it works for you.

The pills at all are small and easy to swallow. I suggest water or fruit juice such as apel-juice.

I am happy with my decision to take this product and if you are bodybuilding I just can recommend you to take it as well. Enjoy!
