Essential branched-chain amino acid, catalyst for protein synthesis
7000 mg- L-Leucine
- Essential branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) that the body cannot synthesize. L-leucine represents about one-third of muscle proteins and plays a metabolic role distinct from other amino acids.
- L-leucine directly activates the mTOR (mammalian Target Of Rapamycin) pathway, a central regulator of cellular metabolism. This activation triggers protein synthesis in muscles, independently of insulin and even during fasting periods.
- Authorized claim: Proteins contribute to the increase of muscle mass. Proteins contribute to the maintenance of muscle mass. (EU Regulation No. 432/2012)
