Branched Chain Amino Acids

Post by nikban »

Any thoughts on taking these?

I've been told they're good to take when you are cutting carbs for energy, but it seems slightly excessive in the dosage recommendations, and wanted to get other's thoughts on it.

I am also taking CLA 3x a day-- any thoughts on taking the two combined..

Let me know...

They aren't too bad, and CLA, is a kind of healthy Fat, so combining them is good.

Only slight downside to BCAA's is that you don't get any simple sugar to knowledge that assist recovery and possible synthesis, so you end up having to take something like Grape Juice, or a Dextrose product to compensate.
