PROTEIN
– Protein is made up of 9 EAAs Essential Amino Acids and 11 Non-Essential Amino Acids
– The 9 EAAs cannot be made by the body and therefore must come from food
– They are: Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Methionine, Lysine, Histidine
– BCAAs Branch Amino Acids are 3 of the EAAs: Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine
– Leucine is the key for building muscle which is called Muscle Protein Synthesis or MPS

THE BCAA LEUCINE
· A highly effective and inexpensive supplement to be used when the protein content of your meal is low
· Do not take in isolation and it isn’t necessary when you have a full protein meal
· 3-5 grams Leucine with 8-10 oz. of milk = approx. equivalent of 20-25 grams of Protein for Muscle Protein Synthesis (building muscle)
