Questions on Amino Acids
I was told by a specialist that the three amino acids are most effective when taken together, especially under the stress of working out the muscles. The amino's are:

Thanks a lot.

BCAAs have been used in hospitals to reduce protein breakdown in trauma and burn patients...
