NOW Foods Branched-Chain Amino Acids – 240 Veg Capsules

Essential Muscle Support for Strength, Recovery & Endurance*

NOW Foods Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) provide a scientifically balanced 2:1:1 ratio of leucine, isoleucine, and valine—three essential amino acids that are key to muscle growth, maintenance, and post-workout recovery.* Ideal for athletes and active individuals, this larger 240-capsule bottle offers extended support for training cycles and consistent performance goals.

Why Supplement with BCAAs?

BCAAs are unique because they are metabolized directly in skeletal muscle, not the liver, allowing them to be rapidly used during exercise for fuel and repair.* Supplementing with BCAAs helps preserve lean muscle mass, reduce exercise fatigue, and support quicker recovery—making them a favorite among strength trainers, endurance athletes, and anyone following a calorie-restricted or high-protein diet.*
