What is iBCAA?
Instant Branched Chain Amino Acids (iBCAA) are an instant form of BCAAs. IBCAA’s dissolve faster than standard BCAA powder as they are far more water soluble. IBCAA’s are undoubtedly a favourite sports nutrition supplement. Our BCAAS are of optimal ratio of 2:1:1 between Leucine : Isoleucine : Valine. They are essential amino acids as the body is unable to produce them, they must be ingested through food or supplements. For the body to build muscle, protein synthesis must be higher than the rate of protein breakdown. If protein breakdown is a higher rate than protein synthesis muscle loss occurs. Muscle repair = Muscle Growth.
iBCAA was designed due to standard BCAA powder taking 10-15 minutes to dissolve. Instant BCCAs mix into a solution within seconds, which is beneficial if consuming pre- or intra-workout. We also have flavored IBCAA powder available in three delicious flavours: Blue Raspberry, Fruit Punch & Tropical.
Benefits of IBCAA:
- Optimal ratio of 2:1:1 L-Leucine: L-Isoleucine: L-Valine.
- Ideal as a pre, intra or post workout drink.
- Vegan & Vegetarian friendly
- Instantised form of BCAAS and easy to mix.
- Perfect supplement for all aspects of training and exercise.
- Essential amino acids - Vital building blocks of protein.
- High protein content – Contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass.
When to take iBCAA
IBCAA can also be taken throughout the day, preferably between meals. It is a popular supplement for athletes or anyone involved in intense or frequent exercise/training.
IBCAAs make up for around 35% of all muscle tissue. We recommend taking before, during and post workout. BCAAs are found in foods containing protein, the richest sources are found in chicken, beef, salmon, eggs and whey protein. Individual’s commonly supplement with BCAAs as it can be difficult to obtain the desired levels required through diet alone.
