BCAA 4:1:1

Collect only. Ready in 1 hour at your store.

True BCAA 4:1:1 is a branched chain amino acid powder from the Sydney brand True Protein, sold in 250 g pouches. The name describes the ratio: four parts leucine to one part isoleucine and one part valine, a leucine forward split rather than the more common 2:1:1. Leucine is the amino acid most closely associated with the muscle protein synthesis signal, which is why some formulators weight a blend towards it. It comes as four flavours, Blood Orange, Lemonade, Natural and Pineapple, all at the 250 g size. The Natural option is unflavoured, which makes it easy to add to another drink.
