THE AMINO BENEFITS
That defined, let me now quickly walk you through the advantages of amino energy supplements:
Guaranteed Dosage – Amino supplements naturally contain a high level of BCAA, that is, branched chain amino acids. The high, guaranteed dose of BCAA, helps in strengthening metabolism. It fastens up protein absorption as well.
Improved Muscle Growth – Next important takeaway of protein supplements is that it helps in muscle growth. Leucine, for instance, has been shown to regulate and improve muscle protein synthesis after exercise.
Increased Endurance – Well, amino acid supplements are helpful for changing the way your body uses your primary fuel sources like carbs and fat. For bodybuilders, and athletes, who depend on short bursts of power like sprints, face the problem of glycogen depletion. It further leads to exhaustion and a sharp drop in performance. As per recent studies, amino supplements can easily manage this glycogen level and further increase endurance.
Greater Fat Burn – Carrying the discussion of protecting glycogen forward let me tell you how it is done. You see, the amino acids burn fat and that is how it protects glycogen. People who want to lose some body fat, or athletes training on a low-carb diet, must consume amino supplements. It will help them make the switch to depending on fat for fuel.
Reduced Fatigue – Furthermore, various scientific experiments have demonstrated the ability to ward off the mental fatigue that usually accompanies long workouts. One reason for this fatigue is that with a drop in BCAA level, your body produces more tryptophan which then turns into serotonin in your brain and leads to the feelings of tiredness and mental fatigue. Amino supplements can help preventing this process.
Increased Mental Focus – Add to reducing fatigue, amino supplements also reduce tryptophan, which results in improving your short term memory and processing abilities.
Muscle Sparing – We all know that exercise damages your muscles and then your body takes up the stored nutrients to rebuild muscles and get stronger. However, sometimes, your muscles are actually broken down and then used for fuel. All the endurance athletes and those who routinely exercise in a fasted state or those who are at a caloric deficit are especially at risk here. But with amino supplements you can protect your muscle fibers from suffering too much damage.
Reduced Muscle Soreness – Final advantage to note is that amino supplements significantly reduce muscle damage and improve muscle recovery. As a result the muscle soreness automatically gets reduced. Muscle soreness usually sets in after a strenuous workout, hence it is best to take amino supplements post a workout.
To conclude, amino supplements manage everything from mental fatigue to improving muscle regeneration and are perfect to uplift your overall performance.
